How libraries are positioning themselves Compliance vs Support Opportunity for partnerships with other groups on campus Research Offices Graduate Students

Support for Green and Gold Green Heavily promoted as a solution Opportunity for upgrades or new training materials a number of institutions offer mediated deposit or “CV Service” those who do not often cite lack of human resources Gold OJS hosting Open Access authors’ funds memberships with OA publishers use of publisher vouchers for hybrid OA

Outreach and Education Biggest contribution from libraries is coming in this area who is affected, how to comply, what services the Library offers to support researchers subject to the policy presentations at departmental and faculty meetings, targeted s outreach to grad students education on the policy and on open access for library staff discussions on author rights and helping authors retain copyright
