1st April 2013 is the start date for the new RCUK policy on Open Access. The library have compiled a short two-page document which describes the key
points in the new policy and gives useful guidance information on how to
comply for St Andrews authors. The
RCUK OA policy key points and guidance document is available from the library web pages at
http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/library/information/furtherhelp/openaccess/ .
The latest
RCUK open access policy, revised on 6th March 2013, is available at
http://www.rcuk.ac.uk/research/Pages/outputs.aspx.
RCUK are expected to issue revised guidance early in April 2013 as a
result of further consultation with stakeholders. We will keep you
updated on announcements through the
OpenAccess@ StAndrews blog and on the library
webpages. Help and guidance is always available at
open-access-support.
