The Impact of Open Access outside European Universities

A study exploring the impact of open access upon users of research outputs outside research-led European universities

1 October 2010 - 1 October 2010,  00:00 - 00:00, 

At the time (2010) the growth in informal Open Access sharing had not had a major effect upon the use of formal publication choices. 

This briefing paper explored the impact of open access upon potential users of research outputs outside the walls of research-led European universities, where the economic value of open access may be even greater than the academic value within universities.

This briefing paper was written in cooperation with SPARC Europe.
