Integrating Institutional and Funder Open Access Mandates: Belgian Model

FRS-FNRS has has now designated institutional repository deposit as the sole mechanism for submitting publications in support of a research funding application. This one stipulation has six major knock-on benefits: It not only: (1) extends the Liege institutional mandate's compliance/monitoring clause to funder mandates, but it also (2) helps integrate institutional and funder mandates, (3) ensuring that deposit is made, (4) ensuring that deposit is made in the author's institutional repository (rather than in diverse institution-external repositories), (5) encouraging institutions that have not yet done so to adopt deposit mandates, so as to complement funder mandates for all institutional research output, funded and unfunded, and (6) ensuring that institutional and funder mandates are convergent and mutually reinforcing rather than divergent and competitive, with deposits for both mandates being made institutionally, and with institutions hence monitoring and ensuring compliance with funder mandates.
