Growth of open access publications in the Netherlands, 1990-2018

Scholarly communication of the Netherlands published in open access form can be found by searching the National Academic Research and Collaborations Information System [nl] (NARCIS). The web portal was developed in 2004 by the Data Archiving and Networked Services [nl] of the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research and Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences.[1]

Brill Publishers, National Library of the Netherlands, OAPEN Foundation, Stichting Fair Open Access Alliance, Utrecht University Library, and VU University Amsterdam Library belong to the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association.[2]

Policy

The Dutch government has voiced the ambition that by 2019 60% of all publications from Dutch research universities should be published as open access, and by 2024 this should be 100%.[3] The Society of Dutch Universities [nl] is negotiating big deals with publishers, where open access publication for Dutch corresponding authors is free of additional charge.[4]

Journals

Among the open access journals produced in the Netherlands are the following titles:[5]

  • Bijdragen tot de Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde
  • BMGN: Low Countries Historical Review

  • Tijdschrift voor Sociale en Economische Geschiedenis [nl]

Repositories

There are some 36 collections of scholarship in the Netherlands housed in digital open access repositories.[6] They contain journal articles, book chapters, data, and other research outputs that are free to read. Those maintaining the largest number of digital assets include: Wageningen Staff Publications, Utrecht University Repository, Radboud Repository, University of Groningen Research Database, Repository TU/e, TU Delft Repository, Universiteit van Amsterdam Digital Academic Repository, Erasmus University Institutional Repository, and Universiteit Twente Repository.[1]
