  • Review of Sherpa Romeo and Sherpa Juliet
    James Madison University From the SelectedWorks of Elizabeth Price 2016 Review of Sherpa RoMEO and Sherpa Juliet. In Open Access Publishing & Scholarship edited by M. Mallon. Elizabeth Price, James Madison University Available at: https://works.bepress.com/elizabeth-price/10/ Subject: PSQ Internet Resources Column Email body: Elizabeth Price Research and Instruction Librarian Murray State University [email protected] SHERPA RoMEO and SHERPA JULIET www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo and http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/juliet Visited: Spring 2016 Reviewer: Elizabeth Price, Research and Instruction Librarian, Murray State University SHERPA RoMEO is a searchable database of publisher’s policies to help academic researchers self-archive their work without violating their publishing agreements. Its companion site, SHERPA JULIET, is a database of funding agencies’ grant conditions that are related to the self-archiving or open access publishing of research publications and data. Both tools are based at the University of Nottingham and are part of how SHERPA Services “is investigating issues in the future of scholarly communication.” Of the two, RoMEO is relevant to a wider variety of researchers. Its primary goal is eliminating confusion for authors who support open access or want to make their peer-reviewed scholarship available to a wider audience. Using the basic search function, one can search by journal title, partial journal title, ISSN or publisher. RoMEO does not apply to book publication agreements. RoMEO uses colors to code different levels of self-archiving permissions. They apply to pre- prints (the draft of a manuscript submitted for peer-review), post-prints (the version of the manuscript submitted for printing after peer-review) and the publisher’s version/PDF (the version of record that is published on the publisher’s website).

We analyzed total Web of Science-(WoS)-indexed publication output in years 2011- 2013 for 67 institutions where OA was mandated in order to estimate the mandates’ effectiveness: How well did the MELIBEA score and its individual conditions predict what percentage of the WoS-indexed articles is actually deposited in each institution’s OA repository, and when. We found a small but significant positive correlation (0.18) between the MELIBEA “strength” score and deposit percentage. For three of the eight MELIBEA conditions (deposit timing, internal use, and opt-outs), one value of each was strongly associated with deposit percentage or latency (1: immediate deposit required; 2: deposit required for performance evaluation; 3: unconditional opt-out allowed for the OA requirement but no opt-out for deposit

  • Self-Archiving in Open Access Institutional Repositories: Whose Court Is the Ball In?
    1 International Journal of Information Research, Vol.1 No.1 September , 2011 SELF-ARCHIVING IN OPEN ACCESS INSTITUTIONAL REPOSITORIES: WHOSE COURT IS THE BALL IN? Rupak Chakravarty Assistant Professor, Department of Library and Information Science, Panjab University, Chandigarh, India. ABSTRACT States that Open Access (OA) is powerful. As the open access movement is gathering momentum, it is becoming more powerful and more. It has the potential to liberate knowledge from the monopoly of the publishers to a great extent. But, are we serious in our efforts in supporting this movement? What efforts are we putting to make the knowledge available all and sundry without any financial obligation? Aims to raise such issues and provide facts which can guide institutional authorities to adopt author friendly policies and provide suitable platform to make them better contributor in open access movement. Provides a true picture of the current status pertaining to archiving in repositories and establishes the fact that now the ball is very much in the author’s court. KEY WORDS: Open Access, Self-Archiving, Institutional Repositories, SHERPA/RoMEO Open Access Open access calls for the free availability of scholarly literature on the Internet. It has been defined by various organizations and individuals whose writings and efforts have a great impact on the open access movement. Peter Suber (2007) has defined open access as “immediate, free and unrestricted online access to digital scholarly material primarily peer-reviewed research articles in journals”. According to Swan (2005), the Open Access research literature is composed of free, online copies of peer-reviewed journal articles and conference papers as well as technical reports, theses and working papers.

Email: [email protected] This is a preprint of an article accepted for publication in Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology copyright © 2013 (American Society for Information Science and Technology) Abstract This paper reviews the worldwide growth of open-access (OA) repositories, December 2005 to December 2012, using data collected by the OpenDOAR project. It shows that initial repository development was focused on North America, Western Europe and Australasia, particularly the USA, UK, Germany and Australia. Soon after, Japan increased its repository numbers. Since 2010, other geographical areas and countries have seen repository growth, including East Asia (especially Taiwan), South America (especially Brazil) and Eastern Europe (especially Poland). During the whole period, countries such as France, Italy and Spain have maintained steady growth, whereas countries such as China and Russia have experienced relatively low levels of growth. Globally, repositories are predominantly institutional, multidisciplinary and English-language-based. They typically use open- source OAI-compliant repository software but remain immature in terms of explicit licensing arrangements. Whilst the size of repositories is difficult to assess accurately, the available data indicate that a small number of large repositories and a large number of small repositories make up the repository landscape.

  • Advantages, Policy and Advocacy Ariadne Chloe Furnival
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Nottingham ePrints 1 Open access to scholarly communications: advantages, policy and advocacy1 Ariadne Chloe Furnival2 ABSTRACT The Open Access (OA) movement regards OA modes of disseminating research as the unequivocal future of scholarly communication. Proponents of the open access movement itself have, over the last ten years, carried out systematic research to show how OA can tangibly benefit researchers, institutions and society at large. Even so, the number of research papers being uploaded to OA institutional repositories remains relatively low, frequently based on concerns which often contradict the facts. Policies for OA have been introduced to encourage author uptake, and these are also discussed here. Briefly delineating aspects of these phenomena, this paper will then move on to outline and discuss advocacy for OA in organisations, and whether this should be “downstream”, in the form of informational campaigns, or “upstream”, in the form of top-down change management. This paper seeks to make a contribution to these issues in the OA sphere, by brining into the debate strands from the literature of the sociology of science and management science that will hopefully elucidate aspects of author reactions to OA, and the perceived changes that its adoption gives rise to. Introduction Ever since the enshrining of the concept of Open Access (hereafter, “OA”) in the declarations like those of the Budapest OA Initiative (2002), the Bethesda Statement on Open Access Publishing (2003) and the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities (2003) – famously referred to as the “3 B‟s” by Peter Suber – , there has been a veritable proliferation of projects worldwide promoting OA as the future mode of scholarly communication.

  • How Open Is Open Access Research in Library and Information Science?
    http://sajlis.journals.ac.za doi:10.7553/84-1-1710 11 How open is open access research in Library and Information Science? Wanyenda Leonard Chilimo1 and Omwoyo Bosire Onyancha2 [email protected] ORCID: orcid.org/0000-0001-8057-7405 [email protected] ORCID: orcid.org/0000-0002-9232-4939 Received: 26 November 2017 Accepted: 23 June 2018 The study investigates Library and Information Science (LIS) journals that published research articles between 2003 and 2013, which were about open access (OA) and were indexed in LIS databases. The purpose was to investigate the journals’ OA policies, ascertain the degree to which these policies facilitate OA to publications, and investigate whether such texts are also available as OA. The results show that literature growth in the domain has been significant, with a total of 1,402 articles produced during the eleven years under study. The OA policies of the fifty-six journals that published the highest number of articles were analysed. The results show that most articles (404; 41%) were published in hybrid journals, whereas 272 (29.7%) appeared in OA journals. Some 143 (53%) of the articles published in hybrid journals were available as green OA copies. In total, 602 (66%) of all the articles published were available as OA. The results show that the adoption of OA for research articles on that very subject is somewhat higher than in other fields. The study calls on LIS professionals to be conversant with the OA policies of the various journals that may publish their research. Keywords: LIS journals, open access, self-archiving 1 Introduction and background information Open access (OA) is an initiative that advocates for free, online access to scientific literature.
