Open access in Albania

Last updated

Albania currently has no Open Access policy. The Draft Law for Science, published in July 2023, mandates that all publicly (co-)funded research should be openly accessible and reusable. [1] The law is currently in the consultation phase. [2]

Scopus data from November 2023 show that out of a total of 4,043 publications by Albanian authors in Open Access, 1,918 are in Gold (47%) and 2,470 publications are in Green (61%). Given the low access to databases by Albanian institutions and the lack of institutional support to publish in OA (due to fees), these OA publications are an outcome of the international collaborations Albanian researchers have.

Journals
