‘This year, the Leiden Rankings added a new category for Open Access publications as well—showcasing UVic’s strength in making science and scholarship’s findings accessible and affordable. Nearly half of all UVic publications (46.7 per cent) circulate legally and sustainably in open access journals and repositories—putting UVic just behind McGill and ahead of the University of Toronto in this emerging domain.’

The Copyright and Scholarly Communications Office would like to extend our sincere thanks to all of the UVic authors who have contributed to the growth of UVic’s institutional repository and the subsequent recognition with the CWTS Leiden Rankings this year. We would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate all UVic-based researchers who contributed to UVic’s rankings within the Leiden Rankings and wish them all continued growth and success.
