From July 6, 2019, to July 6, 2022, Florida State University published 9,802 outputs according to Web of Science. The percentage of published outputs available via Open Access during that time was 45.2% (which includes both OA published articles and repositories). Finally, the percentage of published outputs available as accepted manuscripts in repositories was about 10.5%.
It should be noted that it is difficult to pin down the percentage of outputs provided in a repository. Accepted manuscripts were selected specifically because repositories are frequently used to provide accepted manuscripts as an alternative to paywalled articles. The data is limited to what is indexed by Web of Science and identified via their partnership with OurResearch.
