The present project aims at supporting the Swiss disciplinary field of arts, design and music in implementing the swissuniversities Open Access action plan 2021-2024 in collaboration with key stakeholders. More specifically the project involves a network of Swiss schools of ADM and it develops centralised and local services. The centralised service produces guidelines and solutions for a selection of case studies with the support of a legal team, it produces webinars and training for the local staff, it involves Swiss institutions in international networks and it triggers Green and Gold Open Access among the publications in the field of ADM. At a local level, the different schools involved notify case studies, receive training and coaching to support their researchers, teachers and collaborators, to include Open Access and Open Data (i.e. copyright management, open licenses, multimedia formats, reviewing processes) within students’ curricula and to negotiate with national publishers specialised in ADM.
