Open access and the 2029 Research Excellence Framework (REF) | The Political Studies Association (PSA)

"The PSA [a learned society] recently responded to a consultation on the REF 2029 Open Access Policy, which looks to extend open-access requirements to longform publications and to shorten the embargo periods that apply to journal articles. While the PSA fully supports the promotion of accessible research, its submission highlights how some of the proposed changes might inadvertently negatively impact some scholars and learned societies."
