[GOAL] Re: {Disarmed} Re: A census of OA in the Netherlands

Mandated OA was announced early 2011 for Earsmus University Rotterdam. Unfortunately this has had no effect on deposit rates whatsoever, it is still one of the lowest deposit rates in Nl. Mandates without carrots or sticks are not likely to work, despite the Liege success.

BTW this post was partly inspired by questions you asked in Leiden back in 2010(?) at the van Raan farewell symposium.

An analysis of OA deposits in Dutch repositories

Deposits rates at Dutch universities vary between 7% and 40% for articles.
Are well in the 80% for PhD-theses.
There remains a lot of work to be done.

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.
