The Norwegian consortium for higher education and research and Elsevier, the global information analytics business specializing in science and health, have agreed to a pilot national license, providing Norwegian researchers with access to global academic research while making Norwegian research accessible through open access publishing. The agreement is the result of close cooperation between the Norwegian research community and Elsevier.
The pilot will run for two years, giving seven universities and 39 research institutions across Norway access to Elsevier's world-leading platform for scientific knowledge with more than 16 million publications from over 2,500 journals published by Elsevier and its society partners. It also enables Norwegian researchers to publish their research Open Access.
The Norwegian Directorate for ICT and Joint Services in Higher Education and Research (Unit) and Elsevier will jointly monitor the pilot and capture learnings and data to further refine Elsevier's open access offerings in line with the needs of the Norwegian research community.
