Hyper Articles en Ligne (HAL) began in 2001. The French National Center for Scientific Research participated in 2003 in the creation of the influential Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities.[1] Publishers EDP Sciences and OpenEdition [fr] belong to the international Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association.[2]

More than 120 institutions have opened their own institutional portals on the HAL platform.
