The national Open Access strategy

Denmark has a national Open Access strategy, which Royal Danish Library supports the implementation of.

Royal Danish Library actively works to support and promote Denmark's National Strategy for Open Access.

The objective of the strategy is:

To increase the proportion of Danish research articles published Open Access from the current 78% to at least 90% by 2035.

The strategy is based on the following prerequisites:

That the Royal Danish Library, research libraries and research institutions work through negotiations with academic publishers to secure agreements that allow all publications to be made Open Access within a maximum of 12 months and at a financially sustainable cost.
That researchers and research institutions continuously make full use of the negotiated rights to provide Open Access.
That research institutions, research funding bodies and the Danish Agency for Higher Education and Science continuously monitor, communicate and encourage the implementation of this strategy.

Denmark’s National Strategy for Open Access can be read at the Ministry of Science, Higher Education and Digital Affairs (in Danish).
