ACS 2020 Open Access Survey

To better understand author and researcher sentiment towards open access, we sought feedback from our community through an online survey and in-person focus group sessions in early 2020. The response to these research efforts was robust, with more than 2,500 authors and researchers participating across the United States, China, Japan, South Korea, India, Australia, Germany, United Kingdom, France and other European countries.
