Open Access Publishing at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology : Statistics for 2011 – 2016

Abstract

During 2011, a policy for scholarly publishing was implemented at KTH.1 The policy states that researchers at KTH should strive to publish open access, either through well-reputed open accessjournals or by self-archiving in KTH publication database DiVA. Publications published by KTH – i.e. dissertations, bachelor and master theses, reports – are to be self-archived in DiVA as a general rule. In this report, shares and trends of open access publishing at KTH are analysed starting from the same year the policy was implemented, in 2011. A report that analyses open access at KTH will be released annually.QC 20191211</p
