Open access in New Zealand consists of policies and norms affecting making research outputs, data, and education materials openly available. This is influenced by tertiary education institutions as well as national government and changing international norms. The New Zealand Government has applied open access principles to its own work, adopting the New Zealand Government Open Access Licensing Framework (NZGOAL). It has not mandated that these apply to schools or the tertiary sector or to research funding agencies. Some tertiary education institutions have developed their own open access guidelines or policies but neither of the two major research funding agencies in New Zealand—the Marsden Fund and the Health Research Council—have done so, unlike Australia, Canada, Europe or the United States.

Barely a flicker was raised by the recent announcement of the retirement of Sue Roberts as CEO of the State Library of Victoria and state librarian. Just a year ago English-trained Roberts was talking confidently about the library's role in five years' time "as a cultural powerhouse, connecting with significantly more people across the state, nationally and internationally, through technology but also in other ways". A greater focus on specific audiences was foretold, with a dash of management speak, by way of "increased partnership and collaboration in order to deliver to all those needs".
