EU recommendations on access and preservation

› …encourage researchers to retain their copyright while granting licences to publishers;

› the academic career system supports and rewards researchers who participate in a culture of sharing the results of their research, in particular by ensuring open access to their publications and by developing, encouraging and using new, alternative models of career assessment, metrics and indicators;
