Open Access Scholarship at Harvard and Elsewhere

Amy Burchfield, Access & Faculty Services Librarian amy.burchfield@law.csuohio.edu | February 13, 2008 - 09:13

Last night, Harvard University’s Arts and Sciences faculty voted to adopt a policy that requires faculty to submit their research to an open-access repository maintained by the university library. The text of the Harvard policy is posted at the Open Access News blog. News coverage of the move is available here [Chronicle of Higher Education] and here [New York Times].

The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) has already launched a free digital archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature called PubMed Central. The European Research Council has likewise released its Guidelines for Open Access.
