UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
Founded in 2002, LERU advocates education through an awareness of the frontiers of human understanding; the creation of new knowledge through basic research, which is the ultimate source of innovation in society; and the promotion of research across a broad front in partnership with industry and society at large.
The purpose of the League is to advocate these values, to influence policy in Europe and to develop best practice through mutual exchange of experience. LERU regularly publishes a variety of papers and reports which make high-level policy statements, provide in-depth analyses and make concrete recommendations for policymakers, universities, researchers and other stakeholders.
21 member universities

Benefits of Open Access Institutional
Provides a front-end to the whole of a University’s research output
Supports marketing for a University’s offering across the globe Personal
Citation advantage for those who disseminate in Open Access Society
Enables new communities outside Higher Education to view blue-skies research, e.g. Small/Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs)
Political Decision and Policy Makers will have full access to
University’s research
UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
Green route
Institutional repositories provide a basis for Open Access approaches (para. 20)
Costs vary from €30,000 - €242,000 per year in the UK (para. 22)
Communications Strategy needed to support advocacy (para. 23)
Universities need to be clear about what type of material is being deposited (para. 25)
Roadmap available at http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1310639/
UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
Green route
University of Helsinki requires authors to deposit copies of their research articles published in academic journals in HELDA – the institutional repository (para. 25)
Open Access Strategy should be embedded in pan-University Strategies (para. 30) Research Copyright Teaching & Learning
UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
Green route
LERU Universities can consider adopting Open Access mandates at an institutional level (paras 32-34)
Authors should not assign their copyright to publishers Better model is for authors to grant non-exclusive rights to an
author to publish (para. 35)
Research data, once made available in Open Access, opens up opportunities for re-use and collaboration (para. 36)
UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
Gold route
Changes are taking place in scholarly publishing across the world and LERU institutions are not exempt (para. 40)
Sustainable Business Models for Gold Open Access publishing need to be developed (para. 42)
Two models currently exist Full Open Access journals Hybrid Journals, which allow Author-Pays charges
Problem of ‘double dipping’ should be addressed (paras 43-4)
UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
Gold route
LERU, perhaps with others, could investigate reductions in Author Payment charges with publishers and membership fees with Open Access publishers (para. 46)
Changes to existing publishing models will incur transition costsLERU and/or other Universities can work with other
stakeholders to leverage funding (para. 48) LERU institutions can work with Open Access monograph
publishersParticularly where the languages are other than English
(para. 49)

Finch Report
UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
Finch Recommendations
Gold Open Access is the future UK produces 6% of world’s global research output For an extra £38 million to UK HE, UK research outputs
could be published as Gold OA research outputs Green OA would be for grey literature, theses
16
UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
For an individual institutional policy, as things stand, Green is the only affordable and practical option

OA costs / savings
UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
Debate in the UK
Debate in the UK is polarised between the benefits of Green or Gold
2 solutions not mutually exclusive Finch talks about a Gold OA future, not set in a timeframe
Also relies on the whole world going Gold OA
Houghton and Swan look at transition issues and the position NOW
World will not go Gold OA overnight For the short to medium term, Green route is more cost effective

RCUK Policy
RCUK policy follows a broad Finch line The Research Councils UK (RCUK) policy supports both
‘Gold’ and ‘Green’ routes to Open Access Although RCUK has a preference for immediate Open
Access with the maximum opportunity for re-use CC-BY licence required For embargoes, 6 months for STEM, 12 months for AHSS,
only are allowed
UCL LIBRARY SERVICES
RCUK Policy
Gold APC payments now longer an allowable cost under in Research Council grants
Central funds provided by RCUK to universities to pay for APCs UCL administers funds by OA Team based in the Library
Target for UCL papers in 1 April 2013-31 March 2014 is 555 papers
Projected figure to be attained: 566 – 102%

Main stumbling block to Gold OA is cost of APC (Article Processing Charges)
Finch estimated average APC as £1450 per article
