Independent study into open access

In 2008, RCUK funded an independent study into open access, which was conducted by SQW Consulting and LISU, Loughborough University. Its purpose was to identify the effects and impacts of open access on publishing models and institutional repositories in light of national and international trends, including the impact of open access on the quality and efficiency of scholarly outputs, specifically journal articles.

The report from the study was published in April 2009.
