Johns Hopkins University, Harvard University, MIT, and 221B are developing the Public Access Submission System (PASS) which will support compliance with US funding agencies' public access policies and institutional open access policies. By combining workflows between the two compliance pathways, PASS facilitates simultaneous submission into funder repositories (e.g., PubMedCentral) and institutional repositories. We intend to integrate a data archive such that researchers can submit articles and data at the same time. This talk will engage the audience by offering a demonstration of PASS in action and by outlining the steps by which we have engaged the university's central administration (including the President's office) to provide funding and sponsorship for PASS and engaged US funding agencies who have offered access to APIs, etc. Further information about PASS is available at https://osf.io/8qfzj/
