In a First, Oregon State University Library Faculty Adopts Strong OA Policy, Library Journal, 3/25/09

Via Library Journal: In a First, Oregon State University Library Faculty Adopts Strong OA Policy:

"On March 13, the library faculty at Oregon State University (OSU) announced the school has adopted its own, Harvard-like Open Access (OA) mandate, the first in the nation for a library faculty.

Under the policy, library faculty members are now required to give an electronic copy of “the final published version of the work,” in an appropriate format (such as PDF), to be made available in the libraries’ institutional repository, ScholarsArchive@OSU."
