access publishing: what research universities can learn from
universities of applied sciences. LIBER Quarterly. 28(1), pp.1–13. http://doi.org/10.18352/lq.10237
In Amsterdam, the libraries of the University of Amsterdam (UvA)
and the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (AUAS) cooperate
closely. In this cooperation, the differences between a research
university (i.c. UvA) and a university of applied sciences (i.c. AUAS)
become particularly clear when we look at the aim and implementation of
open access policies. The open access plan of the AUAS removes not only
financial and legal barriers, but also language barriers. This makes the
research output FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable)
to the primary target group of the product, and more importantly, it
enables interaction between the AUAS and a wide audience, consisting of
researchers from other disciplines, and a wide range of professionals,
enterprises, civil servants, schools and citizens. In the search for
co-financing by enterprises and other stakeholders, and to fulfil their
valorisation requirements, these target groups are currently becoming
more important for research universities as well. Here, we show what
research universities can learn from the open access policy of the AUAS.
