Open Access (OA) and Grant Applications
The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy has issued a memo requiring federally funded research publications to be accessible to the public. Other funding groups, even private ones, have similar open access policies. If you are an OA grant researcher, the USC Libraries are a great resource for understanding OA policy. They even have made a comprehensive guide that is accessible digitally and acts as a guide to understanding OA policy for lots of different grants. For questions, please reach out to Amie Freeman at dillarda@mailbox.sc.edu or Denise Koon at ddkoon@mailbox.sc.edu.
