SLIDE 3

Traditional Publishing Route

  • Research carried out
  • Author(s) writes up as a manuscript
  • submitted to a publisher
  • peer review by fellow academics organised by

publisher

  • final version produced
  • subscriptions sold to libraries or individuals

Open Access Background

  • Scholarly communication for the Web Age
  • Immediate Access
  • Free (to use)
  • Free (of restrictions)
  • Access to the peer-reviewed literature (and

data)

  • Not vanity publishing
  • Not a ‘stick anything up on the Web’ approach

SLIDE 5

Open Access Options

  • Two main OA options
  • ‘Gold Route’ = OA and traditional publishers
  • ‘Green Route’ = Repositories
slide-6
SLIDE 6

Open Access journals

  • Peer-reviewed
  • Access articles online without subscription
  • Charge for publishing
  • Could form part of a funding application
  • Directory of Open Access Journals http://www.doaj.org/
  • Open Access publishers
  • Biomed Central
  • Open Access options
  • Springer, Cambridge, Oxford, Wiley,
slide-7
SLIDE 7
  • Digital collections
  • Just under 2,000 repositories worldwide
  • Mostly Institutional (80%)
  • TeesRep, DRO, RADAR
  • Sometimes centralised (subject-based)
  • PubMed Central, UK PubMed Central, arXiv
  • Create a global database of openly-

accessible research

Why Open Access?

  • Visibility

Usage Impact

  • Increased citation
  • Science moves faster and more efficiently
  • Search engines global research database
  • Facilitates peer-review & academic rigour
  • Improved monitoring, assessment and

evaluation of research

Institutional Advantage

  • Competitive Profile

– Research profile – Ask an expert - traffic to TeesRep from Staff Profiles

  • Visibility of the research community

– Ranking Web of World Repositories

slide-26

Knowledge Transfer

  • Advantage for R&D-SMEs

– 75 % reported difficulty accessing journal articles they need – Barriers of subscriptions & licenses – Would welcome opportunity to access research literature

  • Weak link between innovative enterprises &

universities
