2 Open Access Policy SHERPA JULIET Research Funders’ Open Access Policies http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/juliet/ http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/juliet/ Registry of Open Access Repository Material Archiving Policies http://roarmap.eprints.org/http://roarmap.eprints.org/

3 Canadian open access mandate polices (funding agencies) (selected) Canadian Institutes of Health Research Policy on Access to Research Outputs (data & articles) Canadian Cancer Society Genome Canada Ontario Institutes of Health Research Michael Smith Foundation for Health Research

4 Canadian Open Access Mandate Policies (Institutional) (Selected) Athabasca University Concordia University Mount St. Vincent University University of Calgary: Library and Cultural Resources

5 International Research Councils UK Wellcome Trust U.S. National Institutes of Health Public Access Policy Federal Research Public Access Act (re- introduced 2010) http://www.arl.org/sparc/advocacy/frpaa/ind ex.shtml http://www.arl.org/sparc/advocacy/frpaa/ind ex.shtml

6 What makes for good OA policy? OA archiving (green) not gold OA required not requested Deposit immediate even if access is delayed Minimal embargo (delay) permitted Not subject to publisher policy (funders & universities are upstream) Monitoring & enforcement

7 Policy & advocacy Keck & Sikkink – transnational advocacy networks Global scope of the OA movement

8 Culture, history, policy & advocacy Latin America – open access publishing – Scielo http://www.scielo.br/, Redalyc http://redalyc.uaemex.mx/ UK – open access archiving & mandate policies – UK & Australia: Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) EU coordinated approach to research – DRIVER, PEER http://www.peerproject.eu/, EU open access policy – Finland: all universities adopt OA policy at once North America – decentralized China – centralized / Chinese National Academy of Sciences

9 Organizational culture & policy Top-down Bottom-up Local faculty IP / employment conditions

10 Roles for librarians OA policy advocacy (campus & funding agencies) Education Facilitating compliance – Author’s rights – “Self” archiving

11 Things to know about institutional policy Given a mandate, over 80% of researchers would self-archive willing (Swan & Brown; Vézina) Arthur Sale – on the effectiveness of OA mandates http://bit.ly/mC5MW5 Funding agencies and university employment contracts are upstream from publishers

12 Advocacy strategies Taxpayer rights / Alliance for Taxpayer Access Public good Research effectiveness / speed Business (SMEs call for open access) http://bit.ly/kQw2QB Researcher champions Alliances with like-minded groups (e.g. fair copyright / net neutrality / open access)

13 Exercise: OA advocacy - arguments (pairs / small groups & class) The initial focus of open access mandate policies was medical research funding agencies, where the public good arguments are easily understood by all. What about other areas? Let’s start with agriculture. Should scholarly literature in this area be openly accessible? Why or why not?

14 Exercise: OA advocacy strategies: agriculture (small groups & class) How could people go about encouraging open access to the agricultural literature? – Who is involved? – What strategies might be employed to convince them to transition to open access?

15 Exercise: OA advocacy strategies: elevator speech (individual, small group & class) You just entered an elevator with a faculty member in one of the research areas we were just discussing. You have about a minute to make a pitch… (substitute other decision-maker for faculty member if you like)

16 Exercise (class) – OA advocacy strategies Sage’s Action Research Pay per view US $25 to view article at one computer for one day Strategies for encouraging change?

17 Disciplinary differences Physics vs. chemistry History: primary source materials Literature: free access to public domain materials, data-mining texts for research Academic activists: expanded reach beyond the academy

18 Open access: some issues Open access archives: versions Open access publishing: quality of new entrants (Open Access Scholarly Publishers’ Association) Economics Lobbying (policy)
