Gold Or Green: the Debate on Open Access Policies
PERSPECTIVES INTERNATIONAL MICROBIOLOGY (2013) 16:199-203 doi: 10.2436/20.1501.01.194 ISSN 1139-6709 www.im.microbios.org Gold or green: the debate on Open Access policies Ernest Abadal Faculty of Library and Information Science, University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain Received 16 August 2013 · Accepted 20 September 2013 Summary. The movement for open access to science seeks to achieve unrestricted and free access to academic publications on the Internet. To this end, two mechanisms have been established: the gold road, in which scientific journals are openly accessible, and the green road, in which publications are self-archived in repositories. The publication of the Finch Report in 2012, advocating exclusively the adoption of the gold road, generated a debate as to whether either of the two options should be prioritized. The recommendations of the Finch Report stirred controversy among academicians specialized in open access issues, who felt that the role played by repositories was not adequately considered and because the green road places the burden of publishing costs basically on authors. The Finch Report’s conclusions are compatible with the characteristics of science communication in the UK and they could surely also be applied to the (few) countries with a powerful publishing industry and substantial research funding. In Spain, both the current national legislation and the existing rules at universities largely advocate the green road. This is directly related to the structure of scientific communication in Spain, where many journals have little commercial significance, the system of charging a fee to authors has not been adopted, and there is a good repository infrastructure. -

Disentangling Gold Open Access
Forthcoming in Glanzel, W., Moed, H.F., Schmoch U., Thelwall, M. (2018). Springer Handbook of Science and Technology Indicators. Springer Disentangling Gold Open Access Daniel Torres-Salinas*, Nicolas Robinson-Garcia** and Henk F. Moed*** * Universidad de Granada (EC3metrics SL y Medialab-UGR) and Universidad de Navarra, Spain ** School of Public Policy, Georgia Institute of Technology, United States *** Visiting scholar, Universidad de Granada, Spain Abstract This chapter focuses on the analysis of current publication trends in gold Open Access (OA). The purpose of the chapter is to develop a full understanding on country patterns, OA journals characteristics and citation differences between gold OA and non-gold OA publications. For this, we will first review current literature regarding Open Access and its relation with its so-called citation advantage. Starting with a chronological perspective we will describe its development, how different countries are promoting OA publishing, and its effects on the journal publishing industry. We will deepen the analysis by investigating the research output produced by different units of analysis. First, we will focus on the production of countries with a special emphasis on citation and disciplinary differences. A point of interest will be identification of national idiosyncrasies and the relation between OA publication and research of local interest. This will lead to our second unit of analysis, OA journals indexed in Web of Science. Here we will deepen on journals characteristics and publisher types to clearly identify factors which may affect citation differences between OA and traditional journals which may not necessarily be derived from the OA factor. Gold OA publishing is being encouraged in many countries as opposed to Green OA. -

Martínez Morilla (Univ. de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria) Francisco Fumagallo Díaz-Llanos (Univ. de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria) Los conceptos de visibilidad y calidad asociados a las revistas cien- tíficas de Humanidades vienen utilizándose en España, desde hace más de diez años, en los procesos de evaluación de la comunidad científica perteneciente a las distintas áreas, que realizan su actividad en las uni- versidades y centros de investigación de nuestro país. La visibilidad de las revistas viene determinada por su presencia en las bases de datos de citas (Arts & Humanities Citation Index, Social Science Citation Index, Scopus, entre otras) así como en las bases de datos especializadas (por ejemplo, Modern Language Association Database o Historical Abstracts) y multidisciplinares (FRANCIS, PASCAL, entre otras), así como en directorios de revistas (por ejemplo, Dialnet, Latindex o Directory of Open Access Journals).

Openness of Spanish Scholarly Journals As Measured by Access and Rights
Openness of Spanish scholarly journals as measured by access and rights Remedios Melero.

Library and Information Science Faculty, University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain. ORCID: 0000-0002-5191-238X. Email: [email protected] Abstract Metrics regarding Open Access (OA) availability for readers and the enablers of redistribution of content published in scholarly journals, i.e. content licenses, copyright ownership, and publisher-stipulated self-archiving permissions are still scarce. This study implements the four core variables (reader rights, reuse rights, copyrights, author posting rights) of the recently published Open Access Spectrum (OAS) to measure the level of openness in all 1728 Spanish scholarly journals listed in the Spanish national DULCINEA database at the end of 2015. In order to conduct the analysis additional data has been aggregated from other bibliographic databases and through manual data collection (such data includes the journal research area, type of publisher, type of access, self-archiving and reuse policy, and potential type of Creative Commons (CC) licence used). 79% of journals allowed self-archiving in some form, 13.5% did not specify any copyright terms and 37% used CC licenses. From the total journals (1728), 1285 (74.5%) received the maximum score of 20 in reader rights. For 72% of journals, authors retain or publishers grant broad rights which include author reuse and authorisation rights (for others to re-use). -

Moed3 Accepted: 8 July 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract There is a growing interest in determining the factors that infuence a journal’s fip- ping to Open Access (OA). Using semi-structured interviews combined with biblio- metric indicators, this paper uncovers the perception of Spanish managers related to OA and the decision to fip. The key research questions are twofold: How well do bibliometric measures refect the changes in the status of the journal? How do jour- nal managers perceive the fipping process? In order to answer these, twelve semi- structured interviews were conducted with journal managers of Spanish Journals. The fndings suggest the great majority of managers are aware of the indicators, but only two considered they refect their reality. The results indicate as the main moti- vations to fip to OA: being imposed by the host institution, economic reasons, and increase visibility and internationalization. -
7 Open Access in Spain

In: Open access in Southern European countries. Lluís Anglada, Ernest Abadal (eds). Madrid: FECYT, p. 101-115. 7.1 INTRODUCTION The history of open access (OA) in Spain goes back to the beginning of 2000 and includes pioneering steps in the creation of repositories, adhesion to inter- national initiatives and dissemination of open access through journals, confe- rences and specialized user groups. The first open access repository was TDX (Tesis Doctorals en Xarxa or Online Doctoral Theses), created by the Consortium of Academic Libraries of Catalonia (CBUC) in 2001 for the archiving of doctoral theses. Spain was Figure 7.1. TDX 102 Open access in Southern European Countries also very active in the creation of the E-LIS thematic repository in 2003. Since 2006 the number of repositories has shown sustained growth, rising from 12 to the present 62 to 65 (62 in BuscaRepositorios, 63 in OpenDOAR, 65 in Roar). In 2008, Recolecta –the Spanish harvester of academic information– was created by FECYT (Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology) and Rebiun (Spanish University Libraries Network). The aim of the project is to promote and coordinate an integrated network of digital repositories for open access, and the dissemination and preservation of Spanish scientific output. Also, Recolecta works on the development of services and functionalities developed on this output (statistics, evaluation, citation, etc.) and also for the interoperability of repositories (standards, protocols and international guide- lines). -
