This OpenAIRE Policy and Legal Task Force webinar (1 hour 56 min), hosted by EIFL,  focuses on recent developments around the Plan S initiative for open access publishing. 

Speaker Johan Rooryck, cOAlition S Open Access Champion, talks about cOAlition S and what research funding organizations in cOAlition S want; research visibility; Plan S - strong principles, and provides guidance on implementation of Plan S (key challenges, routes to compliance, transformative arrangements, developing a Journal Checker Tool; working with stakeholders - researchers, early career researchers, publishers, universities) and other issues related to Plan S.

The presentation by Niamh Brennan, of Trinity College Dublin and the OpenAIRE NOAD in Ireland, includes Ireland’s experience with its National Open Science Strategy and Plan S; discussion of the scholarly publishing landscape in Ireland; the country’s Open Access Repository Network and National Open Access Research Portal, and the mapping exercise of a national Plan S compliant open access policy in Ireland.
