1 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries What Libraries Can Do Active Roles in Scientific Publishing ”Economists, Journals and Libraries” Stockholm School of Economics August 19, 2003

2 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Impediments to distribution of knowledge  Dramatic price increases for scientific journals  Lack of correlation price - quality  Market dominated by a few very large companies  Publishers want to control user behaviour  New and complicated conditions for ownership, and licensing of e-content  New legal and technical barriers to access  Scientific information – a common good or a commodity priced per Least Profitable Unit ?

3 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Library Strategies – old & new Journal cancellations & reduced monograph acquisitions – BUT… Site & consortial licensing – BUT… ILL/Doc. delivery vs subscription – BUT… Promoting competion & lower pricing (SPARC) Promoting Open Acess & university based archives Promoting new IPR-agreements Creating coordination and awareness among –libraries, academics, administrators, policy makers, funding authorities, etc.

4 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Building consortia - does not always help… Package deal problems – ”Bound to Bundles” National agreements based on certain important principles, e.g. archival access United we stand ? –For Science a 17-library consortium license 2002 based on these principles –Renewal negotiations for 2003 –What happened? The Principle of Least Effort The Tragedy of the Commons

5 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Other strategies. 1. Actively promote OA and reasonably priced alternatives! Avoid the ”Publisher Trap” ! Make open access material and niche journals visible in a general portal ELIN@Lund ( Electronic Library Information Navigator) –Contents: The global players/publishers Open Archives, and Open Access Journals +11.000.000 records in one user interface with value added services (TOC-alerts, SDI´s etc.) Archiving - access to content after termination of license

6 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Maximising journal usage - ELIN@ ALPSP Alert July 2003. Sally Morris. ”There's been some debate about linking to Open Access journals from a library's OPAC. It seems that not all do this, because it's too much work In Lund (where the directory of Open Access journals is being compiled) they found this a real problem, so they created ELIN@ (Electronic Library Navigator) to solve it Many major publishers, including ALPSP members Wiley, Blackwell, Emerald, Institute of Physics, Elsevier and IEE have provided their journal article metadata for inclusion in ELIN@ I would strongly encourage other members to do likewise. It can only increase the visibility of your journal”

7 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries

8 Basic Search Simple Search Advanced search

9 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries

10 Bibliographic information and abstract Searchable keywords Searchable author names Link to full-text Searchable journal names Export to reference programs

11 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Other strategies.2. University based electronic publishing –LU:research – a single entry point to research produced by researchers with affiliation Lund Primary publishing Self Archiving/Archiving Dissemination (OAI- compliant) to other services Spin-offs: –Virtual journals –CV`s for research funding applications –Publication database (validation) –Research evaluation (bibliometrics) –Result financing

13 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Lund Virtual Medical Journal lvmj.medfak.lu.se LU:research LVMJ

14 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Other strategies.3. Dissemination/visibility of Open Access journals more usage = more citations = increased impact = more usage etc. DOAJ Directory of Open Access Journals –Phase 1 (completed) Peer reviewed All subjects All languages –Phase 2 (ongoing) Article level search/retrieve Metadata – creation Network of editors

16 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Other Strategies.4. IPR-agreements – Transfer of copyright=market power –Working group with representatives from the Law Faculty, the University legal department and the Head Office for libraries. Proposed Model licenses for the university Creating coordination and awareness: –Swedish Resource Centre for Scientific Communication – ScieCom.org (2002) –1 st /2 nd Nordic Conference on Scholarly Communication (2002 & 2004)

17 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries IPR – Model licenses proposals Lund § 2 Author´s right to use the Article Copyright remains with the Author. This will be acknowledged by the Publisher in the copyright line. The Author retains the right to use the Article: - for research, educational or other purposes of the Author´s university/institution - mounted on a server within the Lund University´s domains (posted to free public servers of preprints and/or articles in the Author´s subject area) - in whole or in part, as the basis for further publications or spoken presentations - for publication in the Author´s future doctoral thesis / dissertation provided the Author acknowledge the original Article in standard bibliographic citation form.

18 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries ScieCom.org Swedish Resource Centre for Scientific Communication Inform scholars,administrators, funding authorities, and libraries about the scholarly communication crisis Create a common strategic plan for Swedish HE- libraries to work efficiently with alternative publishing models Re-establish control of scholarly communication Use bibliometrics, open citation and other methods to analyse and show the ”impact” of alternative publishing Intellectual Property Rights - Model licenses Arrange seminars and courses

19 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries www.sciecom.org

20 Ingegerd Rabow, Head Office, Lund University Libraries Proposed development Raise the issue on Nordic and national level Transform ScieCom.org into a Nordic Knowledge Centre for Scholarly Publishing Continuing discussions: –Application to NORDINFO & national research funding agencies –NOP:HS application as a follow up of a recent report on the future of Nordic research publications and the use of Nordic languages. Nordic Council of Ministers
