Hi all

Since the beginning of 2020, the Swiss universities have a Read & Publish 
agreement with Elsevier (4 years for 57 mio EUR): 

I have created a dashboard to continuously track all „Swiss" publications at 
Elsevier:

<https://oa-monitoring.ch/metabase/public/dashboard/a88453fb-aebc-4d90-b44f-ed37092f4dcf>

The data show that so far only 30% of all publications of the institutions 
participating in the agreement have become Open Access via the agreement. For 
reasons I cannot explain, many Swiss Corresponding Author Papers remain Closed 
Access, even though they are entitled to publication under the Open Access 
agreement. The agreed quota of APCs is unlikely to be exhausted. If it stays 
like this, the agreement threatens to become a major disaster.
