Revision as of 03:15, 31 August 2021
In India, open access (उन्मुक्त अभिगम) to scholarly communication has been developing for several decades. During May 2004, two workshops were organised by the M S Swaminathan Research Foundation, Chennai[1] which laid the foundation for the Open Access movement in India. In 2009, the Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR) began requiring that its grantees provide open access to funded research.[2][3] The "Delhi Declaration on Open Access" in South Asia was issued on 14 February 2018, signed by dozens of academics and supporters.[4] The members of the community of practice, Open Access India had adapted the PLOS's Open Access logo and modified it to represent it as the Open Access movement in India and had formulated a draft policy on Open Access for India.[5] The University Grants Commission's thesis repository, Shodhganga which is in place due to the Ministry of HRD's directives, encourages the authors to tag the submissions with Creative Commons Licence Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0).
Journals

Repositories
As of April 2018, there are at least 78 collections of scholarship in India housed in digital open access repositories.[7][8][9] They contain journal articles, book chapters, data, and other research outputs that are free to read. The Open Access India with the help of Centre for Open Science had launched a preprint repository for India, IndiaRxiv on 5th August 2019 which had recently crossed 100 records mark.[10]
Policies
- 2011 - Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR) constitutes committee for implementation of Open Access policy in CSIR.
- 2013 - Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) adopted Open Access policy[11] for the establishment of Open Access institutional repositories in the ICAR institutes.
- 2014 - Department of Biotechnology (DBT) and Department of Science and Technology (DST) jointly made funders mandate for Open Access to the research outputs funded by the DBT/DST.
- 2017 - Open Access India, community of practice had proposed and submitted a draft 'National Open Access Policy' to the Ministries of Human Resource Development and Science & Technology.[12]
- 2020 - Science, Technology and Innovation Policy 2020 (draft) propose to make preprints and post prints available through a central repository.
