As part of their ongoing commitment to open science, IOP Publishing (IOPP) is joining the OA Switchboard to make it easier for institutional customers to manage open access (OA) agreements. The partnership will enable academic institutions and research funding organizations to monitor information relating to OA research outputs via a central information hub.
Institutions and funders with access to the OA Switchboard will now be automatically notified when an OA article has been published in an IOPP journal or partner journal. This will improve the visibility of published OA research and enable institutions and funders to report on OA publication data from all participating publishers in one place and format.
The OA Switchboard is designed to address the increasingly complex network of OA agreements between publishers and institutions, along with a rise in the number of policies developed by research funding organizations, which makes managing OA data difficult.
