Open access academic resources


What is Open Access ?

ACADEMIC SCIENTIFIC BIBLIOGRAPHIC RESOURCES

digital, online, permanent, “free” from most restrictions due to commercial exploitation of intellectual property rights.

“open” as far as computer science architecture is concerned (its interface facilitates dissemination and retrieval of contents by a provider)

“open” does not mean “free” or “forever”

according to an alternative economic model (author/institution pays) = research outputs belong to research insitutions and authors, not publishers

disseminated not alternatively to traditional commercial publishing models, but in a complementary way.


Some definitions

Eprints (generic term) : electronic versions of articles, before or after refereeing and/or publication

Preprints : versions of articles before refereeing (peer-review)

Postprints : versions of articles after refereeing (not necessarily with the original publisher’s layout)

Corrigenda : list of variations which distinguish a preprint without referee from a refereed postprint (which can be archived together with the preprint if the publisher does not allow the postprint to be archived).


Peer review

Open Access is absolutely peer-review compatible:

Open Archives (= Repositories) do notdo not require have peer review but part of its content can becan be peer reviewed (i.e.: refereed post-prints).

(Most) Open Access Journals do havedo have peer review.


Unitn for OA

Subscribed Berlin Declaration [22-10-2003] ( traduzione italiana )

with the Dichiarazione di Messina [04-11-2004] (traduzione inglese)

released in 2003 the institutional archive Unitn-eprints Research

released in 2008 the institutional archive for PhD theses Unitn-eprints PhD

takes part in the Open Access Working Group of the CRUI Library Commission, with which Unitn published a series of Giudelines:

- Guidelines for institutional archives- Open Access Journals: Guidelines - OA, research evaluation and assessment: Guidelines

Why Open Access ?

Why do we have to pay n times for publicly funded research ?

We should reaffirm students’ and professors’ right to reaserch.

(Nice) Side-effects of Open Access

Wider and faster dissemination of research outputs greater impact of research outputs on

(intern)ational academic community simpler and more immediate use of and access to

the output greater visibility of each author’s research outputs

and of his/her institution author’s control on his/her intellectual property

and publications


Visibility

self-archiving in a repository OAI-PMH makes the difference

search on Google or Google Scholar; your item will be retrieved as one of the first hits by the search engine.

vs. “deep web” (not freely accessible websites – i.e. password protected or with a fee (such as bibliographic databases))

vs. HTML pages as a result of a search in a catalogue


Access and impact


OA and IF …

(ottobre 2004) Thomson Scientific - ISI Web of Science : Web Citation Index™ (beta). Indexes open archives (both institutional and subject), by retrieving abstracts and, when available, full texts.(http://www.jisc-collections.ac.uk/news_and_events/news_articles/web_citation_update ).

The product is available for customers starting from the end of 2008 (http://isiwebofknowledge.com/currentuser_wokhome/cu_productspecs/tswebplus/ ).

More than 200 open access journals were already indexed by ISI in 2004.


OA vs. IF ?

Impact Factor = ISI Web of Science

questionable mathematical (and commercial !) model

Citation Impact, downloads (“hits”), webometrics

(more) convincing alternative models

Types of OA repositories (Green Road)

InstitutionalDisciplinary


OA institutional repositories

Institutional repositories are an online locus for collecting, preserving, and disseminating -- in digital form -- the intellectual output of an institution, particularly a research institution.

I.e..: Unitn-eprints , Archivio e-prints Università di Messina; Archivi Alma-DL Università di Bologna , Archivio e-prints Università di Firenze , FedOA (Na)


OA disciplinary repositories

Disciplinary repositories

are collections containing works of scholars focused on a particular subject area (physics, economics, information science, etc.).

ad es.: ArXiv , RePEC , E-lis ...

OA Journals in DOAJ :- have a financial model which does not weigh on readers or institutions- Give the right to read, download, copy, distribute, print, research or link

to articles full texts - In order to be indexed by yìthe directory, they must guarantee peer-review

or a publishing/editorial quality control
