The article presents a part of the results of the sub-working group "Open Access-Awareness/Non-commercial Open Access-Infrastructures and Services" of the subproject 4 "Promotion of Open Access-Publications and Alternative Open Access Publishing Models" of the project Austrian Transition to Open Access (AT2OA). On the one hand, eligibility criteria for the evaluation of Open Science Infrastructures & Services (OSIS) are presented, which in the future can be used as an aid in the decision-making process for promoting OSIS. It also discusses funding models that could be used in Austria to ensure longer-term support for OSIS, and finally provides an overview of the initiatives currently funded by Austrian institutions.
