How Open is Your Research? A Checklist for Institutions

This checklist is designed to enable research institutions to
assess quickly the openness of their research and teaching outputs. It
covers the whole process of undertaking and disseminating scholarly and
scientific research, and teaching, including for instance the adoption
or development of, and adherence to, policies and strategies.




Scoring is either yes/no or on a percentage scale, where 0%
signifies no compliance or implementation and 100% signifies full
compliance or implementation. For each section the scores are totalled
and expressed as a percentage indicating the extent of openness. An
overall institutional visualisation is given as a radar chart.
