Open Access Policy - (CCSRI) Canadian Cancer Society Research Institute

"Effective July 2013, all researchers supported in whole or in part through the Canadian Cancer Society are required to make the published results of their work publicly available. Researchers are encouraged to make their work publicly available as soon as possible, but must do so no later than twelve months after the final publication date. Archives such as PubMed Central, researchers’ Host Institution websites and/or open access journals are all acceptable ways to make research findings publicly available....As part of this policy, the Canadian Cancer Society will provide support for any charges levied by publishers that are required to comply with this open access process. Such charges may be included as legitimate research expenses (fully justified as with all other expenses) in the budget of a research grant submission."
