Green and Gold Open Access Universities and research funding bodies have open access policies, requiring the researchers to publish their scientific articles open access For example Parallel publishing (green open access) takes place by publishing articles usually after an embargo time in university repository / can also be published in other for example field specific repositories Gold open access provides immediate open access provided by publisher and often involving an article processing charge ( APC )

Open access requirement example For example Horizon 2020 requirements by EU Commission ( H2020 Model Grant Agreement: Multi- beneficiary General MGA ) 29.2 Open access to scientific publications Each beneficiary must ensure open access (free of charge, online access for any user) to all peer-reviewed scientific publications relating to its results.

Horizon 2020 Grant agreement provisons on open access In particular, it must: (a) as soon as possible and at the latest on publication, deposit a machine-readable electronic copy of the published version or final peer-reviewed manuscript accepted for publication in a repository for scientific publications; Moreover, the beneficiary must aim to deposit at the same time the research data needed to validate the results presented in the deposited scientific publications.

Horizon 2020 Grant agreement and open access (b) ensure open access to the deposited publication — via the repository — at the latest: (i) on publication, if an electronic version is available for free via the publisher, or (ii) within six months of publication (twelve months for publications in the social sciences and humanities) in any other case. (c) ensure open access — via the repository — to the bibliographic metadata that identify the deposited publication.

Horizon 2020 Grant agreement The bibliographic metadata must be in a standard format and must include all of the following: - the terms ["European Union (EU)" and "Horizon 2020"] - the name of the action, acronym and grant number; - the publication date, and length of embargo period if applicable, and - a persistent identifier.

H2020 Open Research Data pilot Horizon 2020 pilot: if your data meets certain conditions, you must deposit your data in a research data repository and be findable and accessible for others. You are not expected to share sensitive data or breach any IPR agreements You do not need to deposit all the data you generate – only that which underpins published research findings and/or has longer-term value. research’s integrity, Improved visibility, more impact – for science, society, career. Citations increase when data is made available alongside the publication; papers get longer shelf-life.

Open access as spectrum The questions not “Is It Open Access?” it is “HowOpenIsIt? ® ” access/howopenisit/ access/howopenisit/ Illustrates a continuum of “more open” versus “less open” licenses are tools to define how open is it Creative Commons licenses are tools for defining open when publishing and they define open for users
