Results of EU's 7th Research Framework Programme (FP7) under mandatory Open Access

In August 2008,The EU Commission launched a pilot project that will give unrestricted online access to EU-funded research results.

The project is related to papers published under FP7. All grant recipients in seven areas (energy, environment, health, parts of information and communication technologies, research infrastructures, science in society, and social sciences and humanities) will be required to:

deposit peer reviewed research articles or final manuscripts resulting from their FP7 projects into an online repository;
make their best efforts to ensure open access to these articles within either six (health, energy, environment, parts of information and communication technologies, research infrastructures) or twelve months (social sciences and humanities, science in society) after publication.
