Survey on open access

The Swedish Research Council has taken an initiative to investigate what researchers think about open access publishing. The Foundation for Baltic and East European Studies and Riksbankens Jubileumsfond participate in the study. The survey is divided into two parts: one about open access to publications and one about open access to research data.

For the Foundation for Baltic and East European Studies it is interesting to gain knowledge about how researchers with funding from the Foundation perceive issues related to open access. The survey is not checking whether researchers are complying with the terms and conditions set by the research funding bodies. The survey answers will only be reported in aggregated form.
