Suggestion: Mandate deposit. 

Mandated deposit rates are 60%+ rising toward 100%.

Especially with the right mandate: Immediate-Deposit/Optional-Access [ID/OA], 
Liege model: deposit is designated as the sole mechanism for submitting 
refereed research for performance review.

Research funders can reinforce institutional mandates by mandating deposit too, 
as a condition of funding.
