English abstract

There is also a role for senior library leaders to lead policies and raise awareness within their own institutions, especially relating to the impact of publisher price increases, sustainability issues with the APC model, and how to foster an environment to support open scholarship. Around the world, Plan S has been a valuable conversation starter within institutions around policy, open access compliance and the consideration of ‘transformational’ publisher agreements moving from a pay-to-read to a pay-to publish model. KAUST library anticipates that a recently adopted institutional policy linking the availability of open-access publications in the repository to faculty annual review and evaluation will increase open access compliance.
