One thing to remember is that most of these policies apply to papers
resulting from new projects funded after 1 October 2006 (or 1 December 2006
for the STFC). In many cases the research will not yet be completed, never

increasing proportion of UK Research Council funded papers available through
repositories as the articles written under the new polices come through the
system.
