Abstract: The Transform2Open project addresses the development of budgets,criteria, competencies, and related processes in research-performing organizations around the financial dimensions of the Open Access (OA) transformation. Transform2Open organizes dialogue forums and at the same timed develops recommendations for strategies, concepts, and measures to shape the OA transformation at universities and non-university research institutions. Topics of the project include: Improvement and development of cost control methods; promoting the interaction of library budgets, third-party funding, and other financial resources in research institutions in order to create an information budget; developing recommendations for contracts with publishers; optimization of workflows for handling publications and related metadata and invoices; promoting transparency in the financial framework for the transformation towards OA; and determining the competence profiles of professionals involved in the transformation towards OA in research institutions. Transform2Open has been approved by the German Research Foundation (DFG) in 2022 and will formally commence in 2023. Partnersof the project are the Central Library of Forschungszentrum Jülich, the Helmholtz Association's Open Science Office, and the University Library at the University of Potsdam. This article provides an overview of the project.
