Slovenia, in its National Strategy of Open Access to Scientific Publications and Research Data in Slovenia 2015-2020, obliges researchers and (academic) publishers to publish all publications, articles and research data derived from nationally funded research in the form of open access within two years. In May 2018, the University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Arts, had organized a session on „Open Access in the Humanities“ to address this issue and the practical implementation. You can view all presentations including the presentation “Scholarly Communication in the Context of Open Science: the Need for Infrastructures” by OPERAS coordinator Pierre Mounier (from min. 41:10) here: http://www.ff.uni-lj.si/an/books/open_access_humanities.
