This is an amazing news that promotes better research practices imho. I'm super glad that my university is taking these measures towards open and accessible science.

Prior licence model at University of Turku from 1 April 2026

The University of Turku has adopted a prior licence model for research articles by decision of the Rector (TY/440/2026). The model follows the internationally adopted Rights Retention Strategy (RRS), which ensures open access of all the University’s peer-reviewed research articles in the institutional repository immediately upon publication under a Creative Commons licence required by the funder.

Something that started in the US I believe and is now widespread in the U.K. eg see https://www.ukrn.org/2023/04/18/rrs-primer/

This looks fantastic. I wonder if @StephenCurry has seen this sort of model in the wild at other universities…
