|Title=Policy on open access to research publications (2019), the Federation of Finnish Learned Societies (TSV)
|Is About=The Policy on Open Access to Research Publications (2019) by the Federation of Finnish Learned Societies sets openness as the default in Finland’s research system, guided by the principle “as open as possible, as closed as necessary.” It provides practical guidance for researchers, institutions, funders, and publishers on achieving open access, emphasizing repositories, Creative Commons licensing, persistent identifiers, FAIR data principles, and transparent rights retention. While safeguarding ethics, privacy, intellectual property, and security, the policy limits embargoes to justified cases and calls for transparent waiver processes. It highlights equity by promoting zero-embargo access, multilingual communication, and affordable, publisher-agnostic routes, while stressing responsible openness for sensitive or Indigenous data through ethics oversight and secure environments. Implementation is supported by national infrastructure, compliance monitoring, and alignment with international initiatives like Plan S and the European Open Science Cloud, ensuring Finland’s practices are interoperable, inclusive, and sustainable.
