Valerie McCutcheon talking about the ‘end to end open access’ (or E2E) project.

Project is working with a wide range of institutions types – big/small, geographically dispersed, from ‘vanilla’ systems to more customised.

Manifesting standard new open access metadata profile with some implementation although overall system agnostic:

• EPrints case study
• Hydra case study
• EPrints OA reporting functionality

Generic workshops

• Early stage – issue identification and solution sharing
• Embedding future REF requirements
• Advocacy
• Late stage – report on ridings and identify unsolved issues

Several existing standards bodies/activity

• Consortia Advancing Standards in Research Information Management (CASRAI-UK)
• Repository Interoperability Opportunities (RIOXX)
• Vocabularies for Open Access (V4OA)
• NISO
