OA Challenges and expectations: 2014 -2020 14th Sell Meeting, May 22-23rd Florence
Context • Open Access – Open Science • Open Science • E-researchenvironment • E-work-flow; Researchassessment/ monitoring • Data generation, creation/collection, selection, curation, access/discoverability, preservation, etc • Data management plan, policy, sharingbehaviours • E-publications: production, access and discoverability, preservation • Cineca 2014
OA to publications • The twostrategies green OA and gold OA presentbothstrenghts and weaknesses • Green OA : self-archiving of acceptedmanuscriptsrequire policy, mandates in order to populate OA repositories, negotiations with publishers, change in habits and behaviour of researchers, battleagainstprejudices, false mythsagainst OA • Gold OA: economicsustainabilityto publishpeerreviewed OA journals; whoispaying? the authors, theirinstitutions, funders, consortium, sponsors…. againprejudicesagainst OA • We are in a transitionperiod with a big dilemma: will the research community take a full charge of the future of OA scholarlycommunication or willitwaituntil commercial publisherslead the OA movement to theirendsat high costs for researchers and for society? (Richard Poynder)
Institutionalrepositories • Mandates : international, national and, institutionalissue • Is the only way to succeed in making the OA output accessible? Which are the possiblealternatives? • How to improve the visibility of institutionalresearch output • Discoverability (Metadata, persistentidentifiers, data citationetc) • IR as part of the e-researchenvironment • IR and open research data (long tail data)
OA to research data • Open Research Data is a new area quitecomplex • infrastructure, • governance, • costs, • management plans, • policy, • sharingbehaviours, • New skills and professions, training • Discoverability • Access • preservationetc) • Discipline differences • whichneed to be addressed
The role of libraries and Open Science • Close collaboration between Research Office, researchers, IT and libraries • What is the contribution of libraries to this new dynamic context • New compentencies and skills are requested for library professionals
