The indicators cover different areas, such as strategy and policy, working practices, procedures and processes, and knowledge-enhancing initiatives. They can be used as a checklist for measuring how well the organisation fulfils the requirements for open access. Each claim (indicator) is evaluated on a three-degree scale: “Fulfilled”, “Partly fulfilled” or “Not fulfilled”.
