Summary:

[Abstract translated using Google Translate from the original Dutch.]

"Last December, there was an agreement in principle on Open Access signed between Dutch universities and scientific publisher Elsevier. It is an important step in our mission to give everyone free online access to online research. To accelerate this process within the university, the TU Delft has started an Open Science program.

Open Science Program By making scientific publications freely accessible and reusable, we more people the chance to share in the results of scientific research, also give people who can not afford paid admission. New ideas faster and be more widely disseminated, which in turn can lead to new research. So it means a boost for science. The Open Science program at TU Delft should also cause us to contribute to the objective of the Dutch government that in 2024 100% of Open Access publications, starting with 60% in 2018. We wholeheartedly support this ambition heartedly. We aim with the program to a broad dissemination of scientific knowledge, free of charge to all users and accessible online. This means publishing through Open Access, responsible management of research and open and open source software. With the program, we not only follow the national policy on open access, but we also meet the requirements of external research funding. Moreover, research shows that Open Access has a positive effect on citation scores and impact analyzes, both for researchers and for research."
