Science Europe Adopts Principles for the Transition to Open Access

Science Europe has released a position statement that should guide the move to a sustainable system of Open Access to increase access to research results. The 51 research funding and performing organisations from 26 countries have agreed on a common set of “Principles for the Transition to Open Access to Research Publications“.

Now it depends on whether each organisation will implement policies according to their needs based on these principles.
