The Open Access Scenario Analyses (OASA) project addresses current challenges in the financial and organizational dimensions of the open access transformation through various analyses and provides recommendations for the continued development of this transformation in Germany. The goal of the OASA project is to analyze various financial pathways for open access development and to assess their potential impacts.

Through systematic examination based on scenarios, a comprehensive understanding of the opportunities, challenges, and risks of advancing the open access transformation is to be gained.

Through diverse participatory formats, the development of recommendations, and knowledge transfer activities, the project supports operational actions at academic institutions and their libraries. This promotes structural development for the open access transformation in Germany through interaction with international stakeholders.
