This session will look at tools and services (Sherpa Romeo, Sherpa Juliet, Sherpa FACT) available to help researchers understand what their research funder mandates in relation to open access and how this can feed into approaches to choosing where to publish.  The session will also touch on what funding is available to researchers to pay for open access publishing at QMUL, and how to access the money available.
