Platforms & services

Formerly know as Jisc’s well established Sherpa toolsuite of resources (journals) - Open policy finder developed to support the UKRI OA policy for longform, it is still relatively new (released early 2024) and a limited number of publisher data sets included. This is increasing and it will move to live release in autumn 2024. Strong sector and funder support.

Rotating presses give first hand experience answers. Also an FAQ section and list of previously curated answers. We like the idea, unsure how widely used it is.
