> adding those policies to the database. Secondly, recording the
> characteristics of every policy in ROARMAP against a new
> classification scheme. As a result, ROARMAP was updated and now
> includes enhanced searching and browsing functionalities.
> Thirdly, determining the levels of Open Access material in
> institutional repositories of ROARMAP institutions. And finally,
> using those policies that are mandatory to carry out a
> regression analysis to see which policy elements correlate
> significantly with effectiveness in delivering high levels of
> Open Access content. A report with the results of the analysis
> conducted will be available at the end of January 2015.
