Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
UW-Madison does not currently have an open access policy in place.
In Spring of 2016, the shared governance committee on libraries drafted a resolution in support of an open access policy for UW-Madison. A draft policy was circulated to various campus governance groups including the Faculty Senate which declined to pass a policy at that time.
UW-Madison is positioned to use MINDS@UW as our designated repository for compliance when an open access policy is adopted.
MINDS@UW is the University of Wisconsin's open access institutional repository (https://minds.wisconsin.edu/). MINDS@UW is designed to store, index, distribute, and preserve the scholarly digital materials of the University of Wisconsin. Content, which is deposited directly by UW System faculty and staff, may include research papers, pre-prints, datasets, photographs, videos, theses, conference papers, or other scholarly content in digital form. Deposited content is required to be openly accessible and is currently only embargoed in the case of intellectual property issues. The content is then distributed through a searchable Web interface, the library catalog, and Google. MINDS@UW uses DSpace software.
