Abstract

In this chapter Alma Swan draws from the surveys undertaken by Key Perspectives Ltd into
researchers attitudes toward open access. She describes the context in which researchers
work, and how this leads to them valuing (or not) the potential of open access. Based on this evidence, she outlines a range of practical moves that can be made to configure open access as a solution to researchers’ very real needs and concerns.
