The OA-EASI project started in January 2020. In the first stage, the project team contacted all Universities of Applied Sciences (FHs), as well as Universities of Teacher Education (PHs), to gather their publication data from the past three years.
The response rate is almost 100 percent, which indicates that the FHs and PHs are highly interested in the project objectives.
Now it is time to evaluate the data, in order to find out which publishers and in which journals academics of Swiss FHs and PHs mainly publish. This is quite a complex undertaking: The data is heterogeneous and is supplied in different formats. First results of the analysis are expected to be published on this website in May 2020.
