<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black">In February 2013, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), under Director John Holdren, directed federal agencies with more than $100 million in
R&D expenditures to develop plans to make the published results of federally funded research freely available to the public within one year of publication (while also requiring researchers to better manage digital data resulting from federally funded scientific
research).</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:#212121"> </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black">With the subsequent introduction of the bipartisan Fair Access to Science and Technology Act (FASTR), which aims to codify into law the essence of the OSTP public access
directive, the federal agencies falling within the directive's requirements have made significant progress in meeting the OSTP public access goals.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black"> </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black">In addition, while the FASTR legislation continues to make its way through U.S. House and Senate committee action, it's an important moment to review how the various stakeholders
have addressed the needs of researchers and government agencies – including what publishers have accomplished in making U.S. government funded scholarly research and data more publicly accessible.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
