The European Research Council on Friday announced that they will participate in the UK PubMed Central (UKPMC) open access repository service. They become the third European funder to join UKPMC, and the existing UKPMC funders have agreed to rebrand UKPMC as Europe PubMed Central (abbreviated to EPMC?) on November 1st. More information about these changes can be found on the UKPMC blog and in the Wellcome Trust press release.
