European Commission to Introduce an OA Publishing Resource
The European Commission (EC) plans to launch an OA publishing platform in early 2021. Open Research Europe is designed to offer “a full open access peer reviewed publishing service for Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe [research program] beneficiaries without cost, both during and after the end of their grants. The platform will enable fast publication times as well as publication outputs which support research integrity, reproducibility, and transparency, stimulating open science practices.”The EC recruited F1000Research to provide the infrastructure and editorial services. This organization, along with “Eurodoc, the Global Young Academy and LIBER Europe will steer the project and ensure that stakeholders such as researchers from all disciplines and research librarians are reached.” In addition, Open Research Europe will have oversight from an independent Scientific Advisory Board.
