Open Access - Making Sense : Researcher behaviours revealed and their engagement with Open Access. What happened at the Open Access workshop on 20 May 2015, Oxford Brookes University

"Around 50 delegates from UK universities attended the 'Uncovering researcher behaviours and engagement with Open Access' a Joint Jisc OA Good Practice Pathfinder Workshop for the Making Sense Project and the O2OA Project The workshop was run with our project partners, Nottingham Trent University and the University of Portsmouth, and in co-operation with the O2OA project led by Coventry University.The event opened with a welcome and three provocations from our Vice-Chancellor, Professor Alistair  Fitt. Attendees were then introduced to the outputs so far from each of the projects before moving on to identifying and analysing the barriers to OA compliance for researchers and formulating solutions. Working with the O2OA Project we were able to take advantage of areas of mutual interest, particularly around the issue of behavioural change and how we can support our researchers.
