What it is & What it’s not
• Term “Open Access” refers to research and knowledge
works derived from publicly funded research
• Bank’s Open Access Policy ≠ Bank’s Access to
Information Policy
• Open Access ≠ Public Domain

Access to the Results of Federally Funded Research” (February,
2013)
• US: Congress Bill “Fair Access to Science and Technology
Research Act (FASTR)” (February, 2013)
• UK: Research Councils UK Policy on Open Access (effective
April 2013)
• EU: Horizon 2020 (80 billion Euro research fund) should mandate
OA (TBD end of 2013)
• Part 2 Countries: OA Policies discussed, or approved, in India,
Sri Lanka, Kenya, Argentina, and Peru
