Suggestions for Local Action at UO 1 Executive Summary The state of global scholarly communications has evolved rapidly over the last two decades, as libraries, funders and some publishers have sought to hasten the spread of more open practices for the dissemination of results in scholarly research worldwide. These practices have become collectively known as Open Access (OA), defined as "the free, immediate, online availability of research articles combined with the rights to use these articles fully in the digital environment." The aim of this report — the Open Access White Paper by the Senate Subcommittee on Open Access at the University of Oregon — is to review the factors that have precipitated these recent changes and to explain their relevance for members of the University of Oregon community. Open Access History and Trends Recently, the OA movement has gained momentum as academic institutions around the globe have begun negotiating and signing creative, new agreements with for-profit commercial publishers, and as innovations to the business models for disseminating scholarly research have become more widely adopted.

We engage and invest in research in order to accelerate the pace of scientific discovery, encourage innovation, enrich education, Open Access is the and stimulate the economy — to improve the public good. free, immediate, online Communication of the results of research is an essential component of the research process; research can only advance by sharing availability of research the results, and the value of an investment in research is only articles, coupled with maximized through wide use of its results. the rights to use these Yet, too often, because of cost barriers or use restrictions, research in the digital results are not available to the full community of potential articles fully users. The Internet gives us the opportunity to bring this crucial environment. information to a worldwide audience at virtually no marginal cost, and allows us to use it in new, innovative ways. This has resulted in a call for a new framework to allow research results to 81,780 articles in 2012 be more easily accessed and used — the call for Open Access. were published in Open Access journals [1] Over the past decade, Open Access has become central to advancing the interests of researchers, scholars, students, businesses, and the public — as well as librarians. Increasingly, institutions 252,418 articles that support research — from public and private research funders were published in Open Access Journals to higher education institutions — are implementing policies during 2000–2012 [1]. that require researchers to make articles that report on research generated from their funding openly accessible to and fully useable by the public.

  • Good Practices for University Open-Access Policies:  1 V
    02 Foreword 03 Preface 06 Drafting a policy 17 Adopting a policy 19 Implementing a policy 28 Filling the repository 53 Talking about policy 57 Revising this guide 58 Other formats for this guide 59 Additional resources 64 Endnotes Contents Good Practices for University Open-Access Policies: 1 v We have worked directly for many years with colleagues at many institutions on policies to facilitate open access to faculty research. We began writing this guide in 2011 to codify the kind of advice we found ourselves repeating, make it available to more institutions than we could ever reach directly, and solicit the help of others in making it more comprehensive and useful. We published the first version in October 2012, and regularly enlarge and improve it. We keep the master version on a wiki in order to make this kind of frequent updating easy for us. However, some users prefer to read or share the guide in other formats. We released the first print and PDF editions in October 2013, and are pleased to release the second print and PDF editions. Like the wiki edition, these print and PDF editions stand under CC-BY licenses. The wiki version will continue to evolve, but these new editions capture the text as it stood on September 7, 2015. The guide is a product of the Harvard Open Access Project (HOAP). We’re grateful to Arcadia, which funds HOAP, to the Berkman Center for Internet & Society, which administers it, and to the many colleagues who have generously shared their comments and expertise with us.

  • A Brief History of Open Access at Harvard
    Harvard Library Oce for Scholarly Communication A brief history of open access at Harvard Peter Suber, Martha Whitehead Published on: Jul 28, 2020 Updated on: Jul 31, 2020 License: Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC-BY 4.0) Harvard Library Oce for Scholarly Communication A brief history of open access at Harvard This is the first of two related posts. The second will describe our current thinking about open access. (Watch for it around Open Access Week, 2020.) We’re looking forward and want to start by showing where we’ve come from. For now, this brief history focuses mostly on Harvard’s thinking about subscription journal prices and Harvard’s open access (OA) policies. There are many other OA initiatives at Harvard we might add later, for example on courseware, data, digitization, open-source software, and publishing, as well as our partnerships with larger, multi-institutional initiatives. Harvard Library has long been concerned about the unsustainable prices of subscription journals. We cancelled the Elsevier big deal in 2004 and released a public statement about it. “The combined costs of Elsevier subscriptions far outrun even its closest competitors, while prudent cancellation decisions lead only to steeper fees. Like so many other institutions, Harvard's collections have become hostage to this situation. Declining the bundled agreement and intentionally reducing our outlay for Elsevier titles will ultimately give us the ability to respond to the marketplace unfettered by such artificial constraints.” In 2010, Harvard submitted a response to a White House request for information. “Harvard University...is not immune to the access crisis that motivates much of the campaign for public- access policies.

  • Open Access Resolution
    October 3, 2013 University Libraries Faculty Assembly Support of Open Access Dissemination of Research Resolution WHEREAS, the primary vision of University Libraries of Georgia Regents University is to lead transformations affecting research and scholarly communication, teaching and learning, and clinical care; and WHEREAS, the products of faculty scholarship are generated for the public benefit, are supported in part by nonprofit or public agencies, and are created, peer reviewed, and edited by faculty; and WHEREAS, the costs to academic libraries of journals published by commercial publishers have risen far more rapidly than inflation, thereby limiting free and open exchange of scholarly information; and WHEREAS, the publication agreements offered by some publishers limit authors’ rights to use their own work in their teaching and research and/or to archive their work in an openly accessible repository; and WHEREAS, the University Libraries hosts an online, freely accessible, and searchable repository, Scholarly Commons, for the dissemination and preservation of scholarly works published by members of the University Libraries Faculty Assembly; therefore, be it RESOLVED, that the University Libraries commit: 1. To disseminate our scholarship as broadly as possible in accordance with open access principles and whenever possible, make our scholarship available in digital format, online, and free of charge. 2. To deposit a final version of scholarly works in the University’s digital repository, as soon as possible, recognizing that some publishers may impose an embargo period. Materials deposited in the digital repository are granted a Creative Commons “Attribution‐Noncommercial‐No Derivative Works 3.0 United States” license. 3. To engage in good faith negotiations with publishers when policies do not allow authors to make their works freely available online, including the use of an addendum to publication agreement that allows the deposit of a pre‐ or post‐print version of scholarly works in a digital repository.
