The Association of Dutch Universities (VSNU) is presenting an E-zine today
on the successful Dutch approach to achieving open access. The Dutch
universities are working together to make scientific articles freely
accessible to everyone. Big steps have been taken towards 100% open access,
which has been recognized and applauded in the international academic
community. In this publication, fifteen milestones are highlighted, as well
as the definition of open access, the role of publishers, the process of
negotiations with publishers, and the critical factors for success in the
unique Dutch approach.

If you have questions, please let me know, I am representative for the UKB
(Dutch consortium of the thirteen university libraries and the National
Library of the Netherlands). The UKB is working closely together with the
VSNU on this Dutch approach.



Best wishes, Wilma
