Funder requirements
What a funder asks of a publication, and what SET Proceedings already does about it.
What every funder asks for
Every paper in SET Proceedings is open on the day it publishes, under a CC BY licence, with the copyright kept by you and a registered DOI. That is what open access mandates are built from, so for most funders it is the whole of it.
Give us the grant number and the programme in the funding statement and they travel with the paper into the Crossref deposit, where a funder looking for their own output can find it.
This policy applies to every journal we publish. Last revised 19 October 2026.
