ERC - European Research Council
The ERC’s mission is to encourage the highest quality research in Europe through competitive funding and to support investigator-driven frontier research across all fields, on the basis of scientific excellence.
ERC requires deposit of OA books in a repository. ERC recommends deposit in the OAPEN Library. OAPEN encourages publishers to deposit books into the OAPEN Library on behalf of authors.
On October 26th, 2021, OAPEN held a webinar specifically for ERC-funded researchers on how to make their books available open access, ensuring they comply with their funder’s mandate. The recording for this webinar can be found here.
Additional materials relevant for ERC-funded researchers such as a flyer, the presentation slides and a short Q&A document can all be publicly accessed here
