Hi all

Here a further (non-official) update about the Swiss Elsevier R&P 
Agreement: 
https://oa-monitoring.ch/post/update_swiss_elsevier_agreement_june_2021/

In short:

  * The quota of included OA publications for 2020 is now 77% exhausted
  * 61% of all publications of the participating institutions published
    so far in 2021 are freely accessible (33% via Swiss Agreement, 28%
    via other means (author payment, other Agreements, Bronze OA, Green OA).
  * 39% remain Closed Access.
  * Swiss institutions pay twice as much per publication as the Dutch.

I also have extended my monitoring approach regarding Elsevier to the 
countries Austria, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Netherlands, Norway, 
Poland and Sweden: https://oa-monitoring.ch/elsevier_monitor/. I am very 
interested in any feedback to validate and improve the monitoring.

It is really helpful that many R&P agreements are now registered and 
available via ESAC 
<https://esac-initiative.org/about/transformative-agreements/agreement-registry/>. 
I would like to call on the community to go one step further and also 
share the reports received from the publishers on the publications 
included in agreements available as Open Data, like on 
https://treemaps.intact-project.org/

Best regards

Christian
