2 Open Access Free and Unrestricted Online Availability of any scholarly materials »“The literature that should be freely accessible online is that which scholars give to the world without expectation of payment (…) peer-reviewed journal articles, unreviewed preprints. (free) »By "open access" to this literature, we mean its free availability on the public internet, permitting any users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself. (no profit) (public gain?) »The only constraint on reproduction and distribution, and the only role for copyright in this domain, should be to give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly acknowledged and cited” (Budapest OAI) (to have control over recognition of authorship/integrity -to decide the extent of it: ‘gain’)Budapest OAI) * From individual sharing and self-distribution to similar others to OA becoming a political stage. Open Access Publishing Open Access Journals »Gold OA: journal hosted by a publisher with no barriers to online access and free (hybrid/delayed) »Green OA: self-archiving (deposited by the author) which may have been published as non-open access 10-15% of 25,000 peer reviewed journals are Gold OA indexed.

3 OA Overview Open-access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. OA is compatible with copyright, peer review, revenue (even profit), print, preservation, prestige, career-advancement, indexing, and other features and supportive services associated with conventional scholarly literature.copyrightpeer reviewrevenue The legal basis of OA is either the consent of the copyright holder or the public domain, usually the former. The campaign for OA focuses on literature that authors give to the world without expectation of payment. Many OA initiatives focus on taxpayer-funded research. OA literature is not free to produce or publish. OA is compatible with peer review, and all the major OA initiatives for scientific and scholarly literature insist on its importance. There are two primary vehicles for delivering OA to research articles, OA journals and OA archives or repositories.OA journals OA archives or repositories OA journals ("gold OA"): OA archives or repositories ("green OA"): (NEW OA ‘Monographs) The OA project is constructive, not destructive. Open access is not synonymous with universal access. OA is a kind of access, not a kind of business model, license, or content. OA serves the interests of many groups. –Text above by Peter Suber http://www.earlham.edu/~peters/fos/overview.htmhttp://www.earlham.edu/~peters/fos/overview.htm –Peter Suber OA TimeLineTimeLine –Misunderstandings about OA / SPARC and VIMEOMisunderstandings about OASPARCVIMEO

4 Budapest, ECHO, Bethesda and Berlin Declarations Open Access Publishing An Open Access Publication[1] is one that meets the following two conditions:1 The author(s) and copyright holder(s) grant(s) to all users a free, irrevocable, worldwide, perpetual right of access to, and a license to copy, use, distribute, transmit and display the work publicly and to make and distribute derivative works, in any digital medium for any responsible purpose, subject to proper attribution of authorship[2], as well as the right to make small numbers of printed copies for their personal use.2 A complete version of the work and all supplemental materials, including a copy of the permission as stated above, in a suitable standard electronic format is deposited immediately upon initial publication in at least one online repository that is supported by an academic institution, scholarly society, government agency, or other well-established organization that seeks to enable open access, unrestricted distribution, interoperability, and long-term archiving (for the biomedical sciences, PubMed Central is such a repository). Notes: 1. Open access is a property of individual works, not necessarily journals or publishers. 2. Community standards, rather than copyright law, will continue to provide the mechanism for enforcement of proper attribution and responsible use of the published work, as they do now.

6 Open Access Anthropology 1 st May Open Access Anthropology Day Open-access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. What makes it possible is the internet and the consent of the author or copyright-holder. In most fields, scholarly journals do not pay authors, who can therefore consent to OA without losing revenue. In this respect scholars and scientists are very differently situated from most musicians and movie-makers, and controversies about OA to music and movies do not carry over to research literature. OA is entirely compatible with peer review, and all the major OA initiatives for scientific and scholarly literature insist on its importance. Just as authors of journal articles donate their labor, so do most journal editors and referees participating in peer review. OA literature is not free to produce, even if it is less expensive to produce than conventionally published literature. The question is not whether scholarly literature can be made costless, but whether there are better ways to pay the bills than by charging readers and creating access barriers. http://openaccessanthropology.org/ Sudan Open Access http://www.antropologi.info/blog/anthropology/2009/open_access_anthropology_in_af rica_an_in http://www.antropologi.info/blog/anthropology/2009/open_access_anthropology_in_af rica_an_in AAA Opposes OA (2004-2006) Critique to AAA (opens AA to some explorations of OAsome explorations

7 Open Anthropology Open Anthropology is about opening knowledge production to reciprocal and collaborative engagements between academics and broader publics, while trying to put that into practice on this site. It is about building on ideas and examples of ways of speaking about the human condition that look critically at dominant discourses, oriented toward producing a non-state, non-market, knowledge and a public practice to suit. Open Anthropology is also an invitation to critically reexamine the institutionalization of knowledge, looking for ways to reintegrate anthropology with other knowledge systems, and other disciplines, while criticizing the "disciplining" of the social sciences. Open Anthropology, as represented on this site, is explicitly about decolonizing knowledge, combined with a pronounced anti-imperialist orientation.

9 The AAA many positions on Open Access 2004 to 2006 OA: Not a realistic option and full oppositionNot a realistic option 2007 to 2009 change, twitter, online control, blogs, AAA –3/11/09 two months OA access –A proposed legislation would require final manuscripts of peer-reviewed journal articles based on federally-funded research to be made freely available on government-hosted websites six months after publication by commercial and non-profit publishers (such as the AAA). Here are their main concerns about the legislation, expressed in a letter by these associations: »1) it would undermine the value-added investments made by publishers in the peer review process; »2) it would duplicate existing mechanisms that enable the public to access scientific journals by requiring the government to establish and maintain costly digital repositories; »3) it would position the government as a competitor to independent publishers, posing a disincentive for them to sustain investment and innovation in disseminating authoritative research. The net result, opponents argue, is that the overall quality of research competitiveness would be lowered.

13 Alternative Licensing, Pamflets and Copyright Taboos: Alternative licensing and electronic distribution of text as the future of academic publishing Creative Commons Prickly Paradigm Sahlins: "I just want to say that I truly support the idea of the free dissemination of intellectual information, and that I truly lament the various forms of copyrights and patents that are being put on so-called intellectual property. I also lament the collusion of universities in licensing the results of scientific research, and thus violating the project of the free dissemination of knowledge that is their reason for existence. So I consider it an important act to release these books under a Creative Commons type of license. I’m happy, and also a little proud, to do so." The internet a new medium for pamfleting

16 JISC – New Narratives of Acquisition and Control Open Access is not self-publishing, nor a way to bypass peer-review and publication, nor is it a kind of second-class, cut-price publishing route. It is simply a means to make research results freely available online to the whole research community. Claim of origin… http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo/topics/opentechnologies/openaccess.aspx

23 Workshop Description The workshop aims at a discussion on how anthropology is dealing with the new ‘rights’, roles and relationships involved in self-archiving, self-publishing and shared learning in open access; and how their impact on the ubiquitous and guarded process of peer-reviewing may impact Higher Education. This is a workshop/seminar looking at how we negotiate relationships in the fast shifting landscape of publishing ‘rights’ -through self-publishing and open access learning communities in Higher Education. The workshop would involve a discussion and audience participation as part of the session. The purpose of this session would be to allow participants to learn about the new types of open access, the role of publishing and self-archiving, and hand-on guidance on how to go about publishing and self-archiving, and how to contribute to the expansion of open access through learning and teaching. Traditional academic publishing and perceptions on what constitute the production of publishable academic knowledge have undergone, with communication technologies, many shifts in perspectives over the past two decades. The consolidation of social networking and their integration into learning practice over this period has meant that we are now in the position to establish a genuine challenge to the foundations of publishing ‘rights’ in traditional neo-liberal academic practice. Examples from anthropology suggest that these new learning and sharing practices (which may included shared downloading (legal and illegal), shared ownership of texts and teaching materials, open access publications, open access teaching materials, non peer reviewed publications of student’s work, and self- archiving of teacher’s unpublished papers) may have an impact on the responsibilities of the student and teacher to each other, and will have an impact on the production of academic knowledge; it may also produce a shift as where to locate critical thinking spaces and how to produce critical voice, as well as how to mediate critical voice. The workshop will make use of internet environments in situ and will be broadcasted online. There will be a poster. The questions the workshop may want to address are various: How do we reflect on the new opportunities and challenges for HE with non traditional peer-reviewed publications? What roles does the university have in dealing with self-archiving, shared and open access based communities of learning? Can open access and self-publishing change the power relation in student-teacher relationship and how do we deal with it? And what is our responsibility to teachers and students acquiring new ‘rights’ with new ‘copyright’ (copyleft) possibilities? How can learning communities in today’s universities empower their learning experience through open access, and are universities ready for the challenge this is going to impose on the boundaries of academic ‘rights’?
