2. Outline
1. Where are we with SCOAP3?
– Concept and goals
– Developments
– Results of the tendering process with publishers
– Next steps
2. Portuguese Participation Status?

3. The SCOAP3 Model
• SCOAP3 = Sponsoring Consortium for Open Access
Publishing in Particle Physics
• The objective is to convert content in existing high-
energy physics (HEP) journals from their current
subscription-based model to open access, while
preserving the values provided by quality publishers
and publications
• The services of the publishers are fully acknowledged
– Quality assurance in the publication process (peer review
and editorial services)
– Provision of the final published versions
• Payment streams to be re-directed from subscriptions
to cover the publishing costs
– Use the money that is already in the system

4. The SCOAP3 Consortium
• The product of extensive coalition-building with
stakeholders in the community of scholarly
communication across the world
– HEP community, governments, funders, libraries,
publishers
• Out of this community, SCOAP3 has created an
international consortium that will centrally contract
with HEP journal publishers
• CERN, the center of the global high-energy physics
community, based in Geneva, Switzerland, has led
SCOAP3 and will administer this effort going forward
• Budget envelope: 10M€/year (2014-2016)
• Contribution on a country basis according fair share
principle based on HEP publications

5. SCOAP3 Steering Committee
“to co-ordinate the SCOAP3 tendering process, designing the consortium
governance, and bringing the initiative into its operational phase”
• Jun Adachi, NII, Japan
• Paul Ayris, JISC Collections, U.K.
• Stefano Bianco, INFN, Italy
• Miriam Blake, LANL, U.S.
• Martin Koehler, DESY, Germany
• Salvatore Mele, CERN, Switzerland (Convener)
• Joao Moreira, FCCN, Portugal
• Ann Okerson, CRL, U.S.
• Ralf Schimmer, MPG, Germany
• Xiaolin Zhang, CAS, China
• Ivy Anderson. CDL, U.S. (ex-officio TWG liaison)

6. Fair Share Principle
Each country contributes as share
Distribution of HEP publications, average 2005-2006
of worldwide HEP publications
United States 24,9%
Other Countries 9,3%
Sweden 0,8% Germany 9,1%
Mexico 0,8%
Taiwan 0,8%
Portugal 0,9%
Netherlands 0,9%
Japan 7,2%
Iran 0,9%
Israel 1,0%
Poland 1,3%
Switzerland 1,4% Italy 6,9%
Korea 1,8%
CERN 2,0%
India 2,6% United Kingdom 6,7%
Brazil 2,6%
Canada 2,7% Russia 3,4% China 5,3%
Spain 2,9% France 3,8% Cern Scientific Information Service

7. SCOAP3 Timeline
2005 Consultation within HEP research community
2006 Internal consensus on the SCOAP3 idea
2007 Initial design of the business model
2008-2010
Build worldwide consensus and “expressions of interest”
2011 Go-ahead decision, start publisher process
2012 Tender concluded; results published
Oct 1, 2012:: Launch meeting with NCPs & outreach begins

8. SCOAP3 Tendering Process
• Spring 2012 – publishers of HEP journals
invited to submit proposals for participation
• Evaluation process was based on:
– Price per article quoted by publisher (based on
2011 article volume, with price to hold steady in
2014-2016)
– Quality (Impact factor, CC license, format, etc.)
– Agreement to reduce subscription $$ according
to volume of articles converted to Open Access
