As many of you will have seen, Research Councils UK (the umbrella group
for the UK Research Councils) has published its policy statement on open
access:

The statement acknowledges the need for individual disciplines to set
their own policies and each Research Council has issued its own
statement.  The individual polices range from a watching brief through to
mandates for deposit.  To help tease out some of the differences, I have
put together the attached rough-and-ready table that lists the main
points of each Councils&#8217; policies.  Corrections and additions would
be welcome.

 

Best wishes
