Plan S is an initiative for Open Access publishing that was launched in September 2018. The plan is supported by cOAlition S, an international consortium of research funders. Plan S requires that, from 2020, scientific publications that result from research funded by public grants must be published in compliant Open Access journals or platforms.

The guidance on the implementation of such an initiative has been sketched by Coalition S which is currently stimulating a large number of comments and reactions from learned societies, funding agencies and scientific publishers.

Plan S is an European initiative which has and will have indeed a large impact on a global scale. Your feedback, as an individual or as representative of an association/institution/company, is highly valuable and you are warmly invited to provide it.

The deadline is very close: 1st February 2019.
