Monitoring a national open access funder mandate

Abstract

The definition of an Open Access funder mandate involves usually in a long process of advocacy but it’s only the first step of a broader process. This presentation focus on the implementation of the monitoring process of a funder open access policy with implication at national level. The practical implementation is based on some assumptions: using existing infrastructure and defined guidelines. This work presents the options taken to simplify the process of reporting to the researchers and the role of the existing infrastructure to support new challenges.
