trying to resolve..

How will OA (Route 1) costs be met?

Three main ways:

Block grant to meet OA

costs. Used by Wellcome

OA costs funded withingrant (direct or indirect)

Used by BBSRC, NIHR, MRC

Ad-hoc claims to meetOA costs.

Used by arc, BHF


10/13

How will OA costs (Route 1) will be met: in detail

Form for arc researchers to reclaim OA funds available from arc

site

OA costs incurred whilst grant is live will be met from theapproved grant. Once grant has finished, these costs should beincluded as indirect costs of the research institution

BHF researchers submit claim to BHF to cover OA costs

CRUK researchers can use their grant if the money is available.OA costs can not be applied for as part of the grant and noadditional claims will be considered.

CSO meet costs on an ad hoc basis, either by adding smallsupplementary funding or by permitting researchers to vire from acategory that is underspent. [Policy under review]

MRC will pay OA fees where these have been included underDirectly Incurred Costs on grant proposals and when costs fall

within period of grant. Once grant has finished, these costs shouldbe included as indirect costs of the research institution

OA costs met from approved budget. Additional ad hoc OAclaims may be considered

Additional funds awarded to Top 30 UK institutions. Trust-funded researchers at other institutions apply for grantsupplements
