In a Memorandum to all agency heads dated February 22, the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) directs them to develop a plan to support increased public access to the results of research funded by the federal government. The OSTP specifically targets federal agencies that spend more than $100 million annually for research and development and includes any results published in peer-reviewed scholarly publications that are based on research that directly comes from federal funds. The directive stipulates that those affected must submit a draft plan to the OSTP within six months of publication of the Memorandum and must provide guidance to facilitate the development of final plans that are consistent with "the objectives of this Memorandum." The plans will be reviewed by OSTP and the White House Office of Management and Budget and the White House is not offering any additional funding for agencies to develop these plans. For more information about this new policy, see the White House website.
