Thank you Leighton,
Unfortunately Science.gov only hosts federally funded research. Also, it does not include research funded by the National Endowment for the Arts or the National Endowment for the Humanities.

At my university, University of Utah, we are attempting to determine how to continue paying for the high journal subscriptions. Having the publications publically available would be a way for access to the high priced journals, but as I'm finding out not all articles will be available.

Guess we are still going to be paying for subscriptions for the time being.

Thanks, again
Daureen

Hi Daureen (and interested others).

In the US, the Science.gov alliance has built a 1-stop search interface for federally-funded research papers, technical reports, and other text-based research outputs. The science.gov interface is a federated search across the repositories of the science.gov members.

The science.gov site also has links to the Public Access plans of the federal agencies.

The site address is https://www.science.gov

However, today, Saturday March 6, the site is undergoing maintenance, so the link above takes you to the maintenance warning page. My apologies.

For US datasets, you can search https://data.gov

I hope folks find this useful.

Please reach out if you have questions.

Be well!
Leighton

Hi all,
I'm aware that in the U.S. that if your research is funded by a federal agency you are required to share your publication (data, code also, but I'm interested in publications). Some foundations have also implemented this requirement. Universities and scholarly societies have yet to weigh in as far as I can tell.

I'm wondering if it is the same in the rest of the world? Have the governments of other countries insisted that all publications be freely available or just the ones funded by the government?

Is there a one-stop-site to accessing freely shared publications or do we need to build one?

Thank you for any insight,
Daureen
