4. OA
• Free, immediate online access to
scholarly research
• No end-user fees
• Usually greater freedom for re-use
5. How is this happening?
• Open Access journals
• Online repositories – subject or
institutionally based
• Data sharing (not for today )
7. Open Access publishing
in Education
Search for OA Education journals:
1. Directory of Open Access Journalswww.doaj.org
2. JURN: free arts & humanities journals www.jurn.org
>find relevant content with keyword searching

14. Fiction!!
Fact > Multiple OA business models*:
-Publication fees
-Advertising
-Free online, print suscription
-Institutional subsidies/technical support
-Membership dues
-Indexing revenues (e.g. EBSCO, Scopus, Proquest)

16. Fiction!!
Fact > OA is fully compatible with
rigourous peer review
-every journal establishes its own peer-review
process: this is independent of how articles are
dissemminated (subscription versus OA)
-peer-review itself is problematic and does not
guarantee scientific rigour (bias, retractions,
fraud)*

18. FaCt!!
Fact > Fully OA journals allow you
retain copyright on your work
-usually, Open Access authors can choose from a
variety Creative Commons licenses e.g. CCBY, CC-BY-NC
19. Fact Fiction?
Articles in OA publications
are eligible for
consideration in promotion
& tenure decisions
20. FaCt!!
Fact > P&T committees can decide
what counts – including OA publishing
-you confer the prestige
-OA is linked to higher impact*
-recognizing OA in P&T can open the door for
other emerging forms of scholarship

21. Open Access Effect
- http://ro.ecu.edu.au/ajte/ - Edith Cowan
University
- 350,000 downloads since 2011
- submissions have increased significantly,
allowing AJTE to publish twelve issues a year
while still rejecting sixty percent of submissions
- citation rate for journal has doubled since 2012

Scholarly Publishing and Academic
Resources Coalition – protect your rights
as an author > sparc.arl.org/resources/authors/addendum
Tri Council – CIHR, SSHRC, NSERC – will be adopting an Open Access publishing policy sometime in the near futureSo those of you with SSHRC funding will therefore be sharing your work openly and various options for that will be availableTriggered by:-ethical imperative > research funded by taxpayers should be available to taxpayers-financial imperative > journal publishing is a multi-billion-dollar enterprise, with huge profit margins; in today’s era of shrinking academic budgets, we can no longer to afford to pay the publishers what they wantSurvey responses: 1 for, 1 against
Key features:-immediate access with no user fees-But, since there is no such thing as free publishing, OA publishers finance editorial production with various means, including charging article processing fees, selling advertising, or other means.-the key distinction is who pays – it’s not the user
DOAJ:-slide demos the huge growth in OA j publishing since 2004
ERGO: based at University of Colorado
Library hosts the journal infrastructure and provides technical support
Repositories – online archive for digital scholarly materials -- are another form of scholarly publishingBrock’s Digital Repository: collects all graduate theses & major research papers; working papers for ESRC; Special Collections; and moreBrock: focus on transdiciplinary collections eg working papers of Envir Sustainability Research Centre
Can see big growth in repos via OpenDOAR,a searchable database of subject and institutional respositories maintained at the Centre for Research Communications at the University of Nottingham.Useful for faculty and students: can look for subject repostories; contents searchable (eg War of 1812 Brock)
“Open access increases cites to the best content (top-ranked journals or articles in upper quintiles of citations within a volume) but reduces cites to lower-quality content.”
