University formally announces intention to be Open Access for research

The University has become the 100th university in the world to issue an Open Access mandate - to coincide with the first international Open Access Week.

Salford has now formally announced its intention to implement plans that will make free, easily accessible research knowledge available to a worldwide audience via the University of Salford Institutional Repository (USIR) portal.

In a recent keynote speech, Vice-Chancellor Professor Martin Hall said: "Openly disseminated knowledge is good knowledge."

For the last two years the University has been implementing systems to enable its research active staff to deposit their findings and research into the repository.

The University of Salford is pleased to now declare that from the 1 January 2010, it will be implementing a mandatory policy for all research active staff to deposit research information into the repository. This means that as of January 2010, the University of Salford will officially be an Open Access University.
