CORE supports Plans S in granting open access to scholarly outputs (such as publications) to anyone without any barriers and restrictions, including to most forms of use and re-use by humans and machines. PlanS is an initiative supported by the European Commission and various national public funding bodies (“cOAlitionS") who, from 2020, will require that all articles by their grantees must be published immediately OA. Plan S is developed by Science Europe – the European association representing the interests of major public research performing and research funding organisations.
