The EU-funded PASTEUR4OA project aims to increase the understanding and awareness of Open Access (OA) amongst institutional, national and research funder policymakers. PASTEUR4OA also aims to help develop and/or reinforce OA strategies and policies at national, university and research funder levels that align with the European Commission's 2012 Recommendation on Access to and Preservation of Scientific Information <https://ec.europa.eu/research/science-society/document_library/pdf_06/recom mendation-access-and-preservation-scientific-information_en.pdf> and the Open Access Mandate for Horizon 2020 <http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/data/ref/h2020/grants_manual/hi/o a_pilot/h2020-hi-oa-pilot-guide_en.pdf> . To promote the development and reinforcement of OA policies, PASTEUR4OA has produced a series of advocacy resources <http://www.pasteur4oa.eu/resources> that can be used by stakeholders in developing new policies or revising existing ones. These should be helpful additions to the resource library of any OA advocate and we encourage you to take a look at the list and use these resources wherever they can help in your work.
