Open access in Russia

In January 2008, Russian, Belarusian, and Ukrainian academics issued the "Belgorod Declaration" in support of open access to scientific and cultural knowledge.[1][2] Russian supporters of the international "Open Access 2020" campaign, launched in 2016, include Belgorod State University, National Electronic Information Consortium (NEICON), and Webpublishers Association.[3][4]

Journals

Many editorial boards of scholarly journals in Russia have decided to publish in open access form, allowing readers to access articles for free, and also to freely reuse the information. Typically, the intention is to foster further research, to advance scholarship and the production of knowledge, and to encourage reuse of research without the obstacle of costly access.

Repositories

There are a number of collections of scholarship in Russia housed in digital open access repositories.[5] They contain journal articles, book chapters, data, and other research outputs that are free to read.
