Peer-reviewed research publications \u2013 meaning predominantly, but not exclusively, journal articles \u2013 which benefitted from using funding from the EU ‘Horizon 2020’ programme must be published open access<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Horizon 2020 encourages but does not require the release of other types of scientific publications (monographs, book, conference proceedings, grey literature etc.) in an open access<\/a> mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open access publication options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Researchers can either choose to publish<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Green open access:<\/strong> i.e. the electronic version of the published (depending on copyrights) or the final, machine-readable, peer-reviewed research publication is made available in an open access repository, latest six months after publication<\/em> in a journal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

or<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gold open access:<\/strong> i.e. the publication is immediately being made available in an open access mode by a publisher in a journal – article processing charges (APCs) can apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please, note that you need to adhere the six-month maximum embargo period above \u2013 hence (if not publishing Gold open access) you will need to choose a journal which is accordingly compliant with the embargo rule. For information concerning publishers\u2019 embargo see Sherpa\/Romeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

APCs for Gold OA publications will be paid by H2020 only during the duration<\/em> of a project. Researchers need to indicate the expected costs of publications when writing the proposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note: after completion of the project currently<\/em> no funding is available<\/em>. H2020 is reviewing this approach (as of Mar 2014).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Repositories<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When considering Green Open Access publishing it may be best to choose an institutional repository, and\/or one which is popular in your field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Europe PubMed Central also provides a repository option called Europe PubMed Central Plus<\/a>. The submission of articles here depends on the appropriate funder<\/a>. For more information concerning suitable repositories check OpenDOAR<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When depositing an article, please follow the H2020 guidelines<\/a> accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Currently, under H2020 rules, researchers are encouraged (but not required) to make their research data available open access. For more information see the \u2018Guidelines on Data Management in Horizon 2020\u2019<\/a>, which also covers the \u2018Pilot on Open Research Data\u2019 (for additional information, see here<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generally, authors are encouraged retaining their copyright, e.g. by choosing a CC-BY<\/a> or a CC-0<\/a> licence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
