Overview
The OA Switchboard initiative is a not-for-profit collaboration between funders, institutions and publishers to provide essential infrastructure, standards and back office services to achieve a breakthrough in the transformation of the market such that Open Access is supported as the predominant model of publication. The OA Switchboard is a central information exchange hub, connecting parties and systems, streamlining communication and the neutral exchange of OA related publication-level information, and ensuring a financial settlement can be done. As independent intermediary, the OA Switchboard provides direct, indirect and community benefits: Simplicity - Transparency - Collaboration - Inter-operability - Efficiency - Cost-effectivess. The eco-system to work better for everyone: learn, adjust and progress. For funders who want to implement OA policies on a publication-level and demonstrate impact of their research funding. For research institutions who want publication-level delivery on their OA strategies and monitor/manage their OA funds/budgets. For academic publishers who want to reduce administrative complexity around publication-level fulfilment of policies and/or agreements and provide easy reporting.
