Open Access Assist System
The Open Access Assist System notifies the institutional repository of publication information for affiliated researchers, together with related open access information (whether the work is open access), funding information (whether it has received funding), and policy information (whether it is eligible to be made open access). Through these notifications, institutional repository staff can easily identify publications that should be made open access and promote open access more efficiently.
Making Affiliated Researchers' Publications Open Access via the Institutional Repository
To make publications by affiliated researchers open access through an institutional repository, it is necessary to review publication information, open access status, funding information, and policy information. The Open Access Assist System partially automates these checks, which would otherwise be performed manually, and reduces the workload of institutional repository staff involved in open access processing.
