Supporting and encouraging authors to publish Open Access Monographs with no REF2029 mandate.
In: Academic Libraries North - Supporting and encouraging authors to publish Open Access Monographs with no REF2029 mandate, Online.
Abstract
This online webinar explored how libraries are making the case for Open Access Monographs in the absence of a REF mandate. In August of last year, REF confirmed that the 2029 Research Excellence Framework will not have a mandate for Open Monographs, instead open access requirement for submission of longform outputs will be in place for the next assessment exercise, with implementation from 1 January 2029. Whilst this has delayed a sector wide transition to OA Books, there is still a need to support and encourage authors to publish open access monographs to encourage culture of Open Research and ensure the sector is ready for the 1st of January 2029.
