2012年夏天，堪萨斯大学劳伦斯校区和堪萨斯城校区的图书馆员提议设立堪萨斯大学“一所大学”开放获取基金(OA作者基金)，以支持其教职员工、学生和教职员工的开放获取出版。KU是一家大型公共研究和教学机构，在五个校区(劳伦斯、堪萨斯城、奥弗兰公园、威奇托和萨利纳)(http://ku.edu/about)拥有28,000名学生和2,600名教职员工，多年来一直是开放获取倡议的领导者。一个由图书管理员组成的工作组共同创建并实施了一个试点项目，探索开放获取出版基金对昆士兰大学作者的管理和影响，该基金于2012年10月启动。项目说明本报告记录了该小组在制定资格标准和管理开放式获取基金方面的经验。在这里，我们提供了我们实施该项目的努力、资助结果和继续进行的计划的洞察力。我们分享了开放存取作者基金试点头两年的结果和从开放获取基金管理中学到的经验教训。下一步在2014年5月试点结束时，办公自动化基金审查小组就赠款获得者、按学科分配的资金和申请程序征求了一个教职员工咨询小组的反馈意见。根据我们的调查结果，我们修订了资格标准，为第二个试点创造了更公平的筹资机会。该基金于2014年秋季使用这些新标准重新推出。
INTRODUCTION In the summer of 2012, librarians from the Lawrence and Kansas City campuses of the University of Kansas (KU) proposed the creation of a KU “One University” Open Access Fund (OA Author Fund) to support open access publishing for its faculty, students, and staff. KU is a major public research and teaching institution of 28,000 students and 2,600 faculty on five campuses (Lawrence, Kansas City, Overland Park, Wichita, and Salina) ( http://ku.edu/about ), and has been a leader in open access initiatives for many years. A working group of librarians came together to create and implement a pilot project to explore the administration and impact of an open access publishing fund on KU authors, and the fund was launched in October 2012. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT This report documents the group’s experience in developing eligibility criteria and administering the OA Fund. Here we provide insight into our efforts implementing the project, funding results, and plans for continuation. We share the results of the first two years of the OA Author Fund pilot and the lessons learned about open access fund administration. NEXT STEPS At the close of the pilot in May 2014, the OA fund review team solicited feedback from a faculty advisory group regarding grant recipients, allocation of funds by discipline, and the application process. Based on our findings, we revised eligibility criteria to create a more equitable funding opportunity for the second pilot. The fund was re-launched using these new criteria in Fall of 2014.
