Universiteter skal blive bedre til at udnytte Open Access — Uddannelses- og Forskningsministeriet

From Google Translate: "- Danish universities and researchers must become better at utilizing their right to publish in Open Access. It is gratifying that there is progress compared to last year - and some universities have achieved a very great progress. It does not change that many of the scientific publications produced in universities, are still inaccessible to the rest society. It's too bad for a free access to knowledge can get many useful - for both the companies, doctors, school teachers and ordinary citizens, says Hans Müller Pedersen.

In the National Strategy for Open Access, published by the Education and Research Ministry in 2014, it appears that the Open Access be implemented voluntarily. Achieving the objectives pursued, it is important that universities and researchers backs up. At the same time, it is also essential that the scientific publishers play. According to the survey is 29 percent of the articles are not available because the publishers do not allow it or because they determine embargo periods for the release of their publications that go beyond one year - in some cases several years. There therefore remains a need for targeted negotiating efforts aimed at publishers."
