COAlition S invites the research community to complete the Plan S impact survey

cOAlition S is monitoring developments in the Open Science landscape and is seeking feedback from the research community about their experiences when publishing according to the principles of Plan S. The updated version of the impact survey (following earlier pilots in 2021) seeks to gather specific data from the research community about their publishing practices, experiences and impact on career progression.

The survey is accessible here.

Feedback is anonymous, and all data gathered will be used to help us understand how to support researchers in their varied publishing journeys.

The survey is part of our continuing efforts to monitor the effects of Plan S on Research and Scholarly Communication

What is cOAlition S?
On 4 September 2018, a group of national research funding organisations, with the support of the European Commission and the European Research Council (ERC), announced the launch of cOAlition S, an initiative to make full and immediate Open Access to research publications a reality. It is built around Plan S, which consists of one target and 10 principles.
