Gathering the views of authors, the Open Access survey conducted by
Taylor & Francis in the final weeks of 2012, and the early part of
2013 elicited over 14, 700 responses. This was the largest single
survey that the Research & Business Intelligence team has conducted to
date. With over 10 additional supplements, the wealth of data can
often seem overwhelming to some. Therefore we have consolidated the
results of the Open Access Survey into an easily digestible
Infographic. This means that the key findings from the survey, listed
below, are represented by pictures and can be viewed at a glance:

-Benefits of Open Access

- Creative Commons Preferences

- Adaptability of text and data mining

- Preferred and least preferred license by country

- Peer review Preferences

Victoria Gardner, our Open Access Publisher comments: ‘The Infographic
provides a snapshot of our authors’ attitudes into the rapidly
changing and exciting world of Open Access. We hope this visualization
of OA survey results will be able to reach all interested parties in
an accessible, concise and visually pleasing format.’

The Infographic can be viewed here:
