The Rationale for Public Access (2) OA stakeholders emphasised the public accountability and transparency frames The main rationale we give is this idea that the public paid for it so the public should be able to read it (OA Stakeholder) It's very important for us that we can show what's been achieved from the research that we fund, so it's almost like the bare minimum for us is to be able to show people the research articles (OA Stakeholder) Little was said about direct public good – can it be demonstrated.
