10. As opposed to…

11. Commonalities  Generally enabled by technology  Works both inside and outside of traditional models  Supported by a variety of business models  Open ≠ Free

12. Open movements  Open access  Public access  Open source  Open education  Open data  Open science

13. Open Access By 'open access‘ to 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. 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 Open Access Initiative- 2002

14. Some common misconceptions  Open access means no copyright  Open access is free  Open access always means the author pays  Open access will destroy peer review  Open access will destroy publishers

15. ‘ Two Roads’ to Open Access Open Access Publishing (journals & books) ‘gold’ Archiving (self, institutional, disciplinary) ‘green’

16. Open Access Publishing (‘Gold’)  Publication that is free & open for anyone to access  Share all characteristics with “Toll Access” journals except free, open, and generally only electronic  Supported by variety of models  Institution / funder supported OR author-supported (2006 – 47% author supported)  Generally allow authors to retain copyright and/or license under creative commons  6270 number of OA journals according to Directory of Open Access Journals across all disciplines

17. Examples

18. Challenges  Has taken time for impact factors to build  Just beginning to get a real sense of what the costs are for supporting a high quality open access journal – business models still emerging  Author pays model has better traction in the STM community

19. Hybrid models  Subscription based journals that allow the author to pay to make article open access PublisherPriceNotes Elsevier Sponsored Article $3,000A few journals Oxford Open$1,500 / 3,000Lower price if institution subscribes; some journals Springer Open Choice$3,000All journals Wiley Funded Access$3,000Some journals American Chemical Society AuthorChoice As low as $1,000 Lowest price if institution subscribes & have personal membership Plant Physiology$1,000 / FreeOA free for members of ASPB

20. Open Access via Archiving/Repositories (‘Green’)  Literature published through traditional channels that is made openly available through deposit in a repository or placing on web site  Institutional, departmental, or discipline based repository  Range of publisher policies on deposit  Often post-prints (final author manuscript) can be deposited but publisher version cannot

21. Disciplinary Repository

23. Departmental Repository

24. Institutional Repository

25. 1935 Repositories worldwide holding over 28.6M items Repository Map from http://maps.repository66.orghttp://maps.repository66.org

26. Challenges  Participation of faculty (particularly for institutional)  Discipline based repositories often rooted in cultures used to sharing  Questions of authority of pre-print/post-print  Copyright issues murky and (often) frustrating  http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo.php

27. Mandates  Institutional and Funder based  National Institute of Health (NIH)  Wellcome Trust  Canadian Institutes of Health Research  Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences, College of Law  Stanford College of Education

28. Public Access  NIH mandate rooted in public access  Public should have ready and easy access to taxpayer funded research  Efforts to restrict NIH mandate (HR 801: Fair Copyright in Research Works Act) and expand it (Federal Research Public Access Act)  Linked also to idea of open government and transparency

29. Open Source  Free to download  Open to modify  Contribute back code

30. Open Education

31. Open Data  Open access to data not just papers  Data should be available in reusable forms (not tied up in pdfs for example) – Data wants to be acted upon  Working Group on Open Data in Science (http://okfn.org/wiki/wg/science) and Science Commons (http://sciencecommons.org/)

32. Open Science

33. Summary  Principle of openness not just about ‘free’  Ability to reuse  Ability to contribute to and participate in  Transparency  Multiple methods for open access and multiple business models to support  Public access generally different argument than open access  Range of movements around ‘openness’ in higher education – libraries should be aware of all
