1. OA Challenges and expectations: 2014 -2020 14th Sell Meeting, May 22-23rd Florence

2.  Cineca 2014 Context Open Access – Open Science Open Science E-research environment E-work-flow; Research assessment/ monitoring Data generation, creation/collection, selection, curation, access/discoverability, preservation, etc Data management plan, policy, sharing behaviours E-publications: production, access and discoverability, preservation

3. OA to publications The two strategies green OA and gold OA present both strenghts and weaknesses Green OA : self-archiving of accepted manuscripts require policy, mandates in order to populate OA repositories, negotiations with publishers, change in habits and behaviour of researchers, battle against prejudices, false myths against OA Gold OA: economic sustainability to publish peer reviewed OA journals; who is paying? the authors, their institutions, funders, consortium, sponsors…. again prejudices against OA We are in a transition period with a big dilemma: will the research community take a full charge of the future of OA scholarly communication or will it wait until commercial publishers lead the OA movement to their ends at high costs for researchers and for society? (Richard Poynder)

4. Mandates : international, national and, institutional issue Is the only way to succeed in making the OA output accessible? Which are the possible alternatives? How to improve the visibility of institutional research output Discoverability (Metadata, persistent identifiers, data citation etc) IR as part of the e-research environment IR and open research data (long tail data) Institutional repositories

5. OA to research data Open Research Data is a new area quite complex infrastructure, governance, costs, management plans, policy, sharing behaviours, New skills and professions, training Discoverability Access preservation etc) Discipline differences which need to be addressed

6. The role of libraries and Open Science Close collaboration between Research Office, researchers, IT and libraries What is the contribution of libraries to this new dynamic context New compentencies and skills are requested for library professionals
