Conclusions

•  Strive to provide facts on which to base decisions (EC, publishers, libraries, funding agencies)

• Key findings so far: - 90% scientists think OA journals are a good thing - BUT only 8-10% of articles is in OA journals - main barriers are lack of funds (40%) and journal quality/prestige (30%)

•  Further analysis of the data ongoing •  Data to be OPEN in January/February
