Publishing Fees Study of Open Access Publishing, http://project-soap.eu/highlights-and-data-of-the-soap-survey-now-available/ SPARC Campus Open Access Funds, http://project-soap.eu/highlights-and-data-of-the-soap-survey-now-available/ AKA Author Pays 1/3 of OA journals, but most articles Article Processing Charge: $300-$3000/article Paid by funding agencies as part of grants Increasingly paid by universities

  10. No Publishing Fees 2/3s of OA journals Supported by universities/libraries Scholarly societies

  11. Hybrid Model AKA Author Sponsored OA Commercial journals that offer authors OA for individual article Double-dipping

  12. Other Funding Models • Membership model • PeerJ • Membership entitles author to publish • Must provide additional assistance (peer review, approval)

  14. New Developments Open Peer Review Open Annotation Article focus Alt Metrics “Wild west of OA publishing”

  15. Green Open Access Article available in an open access repository Often with other literature/research Articles also published in journals

  16. Open Access Repositories 250 subject-based OA repositories More than 2300 institutional OA policies Green OA predominantly 63% of toll journals allow deposit to repositories

  17. Institutional OA Policies

  18. Funder Policies NIH RCUK White House Office of Science and Technology Policy State of California Research funded by taxpayer, should be available to taxpayer

  19. Research Councils United Kingdom (RCUK) RCUK, http://www.rcuk.ac.uk/research/Pages/outputs.aspxPeter Suber, http://poynder.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/peter-suber-on-state-of-open-access.html] • Fund ₤3 billion in all disciplines • Finch report favored gold OA • RCUK Policy • Gold or Green • Block grants available to fund APCs

  20. White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Directive America COMPETES Reauthorization Act of 2010 Overwhelming positive public feedback Articles and research data resulting from funding from federal agencies with more than $100 million in annual research and development expenditures to be open access No implementation strategy adopted yet Unfunded mandate

  21. Growth of Open Access 25% of all peer-reviewed research is OA Green and Gold

  22. Growth of Gold OA

  23. Future Commercial publishers adapting Continued growth of green OA Repository deposit becomes part of publishing workflow Universities cancel subscriptions More funds available for APCs
