Jisc are asking small and medium sized publishers to participate in a survey consulting on the barriers to Open Access for Small and Medium Publishers (SMPs). The survey is asking SMPs to partake and provide feedback about the impact of Plan S and the transition to open access to their organisations.
The questions being asked include:
- How your scholarly publishing models will be affected by the transition
- The challenges you anticipate encountering as you work to become compliant with the Plan S principles
- The work you have done so far to support the scholarly community’s move towards open access
The results of the survey will be analysed to identify and share existing best practice amongst SMPs and to produce a series of recommendations on how stakeholders, such as cOAlition S, can support your transition to OA.

The survey deadline is Wednesday 1st July 9am CET time.
