Abstract

The article discusses the Finch report released in Great Britain on June 18, 2012 and named after its primary author Dame Janet Finch. The report explains the two routes where authors can make their research open access (OA) namely the Gold route which means publishing in an OA journal or Green OA which can be mandated. It points out that while the Finch report is flawed, it brought academic publishing and open access into the mainstream view.
