Sir Bob Burgess, former University of Leicester Vice-Chancellor as chair of the committee which reviewed the RCUK Policy on Open Access commented that the review had received a largely positive response to the policy with over 85 submissions of written evidence highlighting how the policy is working in practice. The review examined the impact of the policy’s implementation for higher education institutions, independent research organisations, learned societies and publishers.  You can read the full review of the RCUK Policy on open access on the RCUK website – http://www.rcuk.ac.uk/RCUK-prod/assets/documents/documents/Openaccessreport.pdf
