European Commission Moves Into Publishing

The European Commission (EC) is looking to create its own open- access publishing platform for papers that emerge from its €80bn Horizon 2020 programme. At an open-science conference in Berlin at the end of March, the EC suggested that it wants to launch the platform later this year and has asked its Open Science Policy Platform to look into the move. The EC’s platform would be similar to that launched last year by the Wellcome Trust, a UK-based biomedical charity.
