baas-news

BAAS is constructing a response to the REF 2029 Consultation on Open Access, and we would like to ensure that the views of the BAAS membership are represented in our response.

The full proposals for REF 2029 can be found here: https://www.ref.ac.uk/guidance/ref-2029-open-access-policy-consultation/

If you have any comments relating to the REF Open Access proposals, please email chair@baas.ac.uk by 12th June 2024. We would particularly welcome comments on the proposals to require monographs, book chapters, edited collections, and scholarly editions to be made open access, as well as any comments on the implications of the proposals for equality, diversity and inclusion, or on those precariously employed.
