Summary:
"All in all, striving for Open Access is received very positively among the researchers. Of the respondents, 92.5% considered openness of research to be either quite important or very important. Almost as many were also in favour of universities’ own open access archives. OA thinking is not, however, reflected as strongly in researchers’ own publishing activity...The main reasons why researchers did not utilise open access archiving were: 1) They did not know how to act, 2) Uncertainty about the permissions, 3) Belief that open access archiving is always subject to a charge, 4) Belief that the TUTKA archiving process is difficult...From the questionnaire analysis it can be concluded that all further information about OA matters is necessary.
