RIOXX review and proposed practice | HHuLO Access

"One of the HHuLOA project’s workpackages is to carry out technical work to ensure that the repositories at the partner institutions are fit for purpose in capturing the information we need to ensure compliance with the HEFCE REF Open Access Policy ... The information requirements document outlines how the RIOXX profile can capture relevant information, acknowledging the additional information that will be required as well (mainly around the reporting of exceptions).  As it is anticipated that the detail of HEFCE’s requirements aside of RIOXX will be developed further, HHuLOA decided that we would start by examining the RIOXX profile and understanding how this would work in our repository systems.  The output from this is the attached analysis of the RIOXX elements, with proposed practice on applying these and capturing the information for them.  We can’t say that the guidance will necessarily apply across all repositories, but we hope that by sharing it we will help those working with RIOXX.  Feedback is very welcome ..."
