12th Berlin Open Access Conference 8-9 December, 2015. OA2020 OA Transition by OA2020 A new approach should give a fresh boost to Open Access. A process was initiated to transform subscription journals to Open Access. The key to this lies in the hands of the scientific institutions and their sponsors.

Today‘s global subscription market >> today‘s open access market Transformation means re-allocation of budgets and conversion of journals and processes OA2020 7.6 bn EUR Remaining subscription budget 10%(~0.8 bn EUR) Global subscription journal budget 7.6 bn EUR p.a. (≥3,800 € /article) 2.8 bn € buffer for new & improved services etc. (without remaining subscriptions) Remaining subscription budget 10%(~0.8 bn EUR) Current unit cost of articles from subscription journals: 3,800 EUR Current average APC for articles from OA journals: 2,000 EUR Global open access journal base budget 4 bn EUR p.a. Open Access volume: ~13% of articles; ~4% of budget (2,000 €/article) Today‘s global subscription market >> today‘s open access market Ralf Schimmer & MPDL Team (2015). Transformation Baseline and Mechanics: Financial Feasibility & Output Analysis
Expression of Interest in the Large-scale Implementation of OA to Scholarly Journals We aim to transform a majority of today’s scholarly journals from subscription to OA publishing in accordance with community-specific publication preferences. At the same time, we continue to support new and improved forms of OA publishing. We will pursue this transformation process by converting resources currently spent on journal subscriptions into funds to support sustainable OA business models. Accordingly, we intend to re-organize the underlying cash flows, to establish transparency with regard to costs and potential savings, and to adopt mechanisms to avoid undue publication barriers. We invite all parties involved in scholarly publishing, in particular universities, research institutions, funders, libraries, and publishers to collaborate on a swift and efficient transition for the benefit of scholarship and society at large.

OA Policy University The Netherlands: paving the way for open access
OA Policy by Harvard University “Each Faculty member grants to the President and Fellows of Harvard College permission to make available his or her scholarly articles and to exercise the copyright in those articles.” “Each Faculty member will provide an electronic copy of the final version of the article.” https://osc.hul.harvard.edu/policies/fas/
OA Policy by Global Research Council Action Plan towards Open Access 1. Raising awareness in the research community Action 1: Tackle the perception of open access by publicizing success stories Action 2: Collect and document best practices for rewarding the provision of open access Action 3: Organize awareness-raising workshops on open access publishing, especially in developing countries 2. Promoting and supporting open access Action 4: Encourage publishers to further develop open access models Action 5: Develop an integrated funding stream for hybrid open access Action 6: Monitor and assess the affordability of open access Action 7: Work with scholarly societies to transition society journals into open access Action 8: Supporting self-archiving through funding guidelines and copyright regulations Action 9: Negotiate publisher services to facilitate deposit in open access repositories Action 10: Work with publishers to find intelligent billing solutions for the increasing amount of open access articles Action 11: Work with repository organisations to develop efficient mechanisms for harvesting and accessing Action 12: Explore new ways to assess quality and impact of research articles 3. Assess the implementation of open access Action 13: Develop and explore mechanisms to assess the impact of the GRC’s support for open access Action 14: Periodically review how the implementation of the Action Plan is evolving
OA Policy by Seoul National University (Proposed) Open access declared by RESEARCHERS at university (in addition to those by librarians, information suppliers, and funding agency) Participating global initiatives on OA transition Active engagement on “Big deal” purchasing to cultivate OA movement on purchasing Support authors for their APC’s Open sciences / open data projects Open access of local / regional journals

Restructuring Journals 1. Quality Up ! Quality of scientific content of articles ➔ Ideas, subjects, results, interpretation and conclusion. Quality of written text of articles ➔ Grammar, concise expression Quality of tables, graphs and figures ➔ Easy and accurate illustration Quality of visual and technical formats ➔ Copyediting and typesetting Ethical aspects ➔ Research and writing
Restructuring Journals 2. Better Access Utilize every available resource for better access and more citation. Aggregated portals for OA articles Institutional and subject repositories Academic portals and search engines http://scholar.google.com http://academic.microsoft.com http://academic.naver.com
Restructuring Journals 3. Cost Down! Traditional journal publishing in the low cost Stop paper printing Financing supported by societies and keep author APC low Index and Database supported by Governments & APAME
Think about APAME publishing group !! Restructuring Journals 4. Collaborative Publishing Avoid unnecessary subdivision of subject scope of journals One journal for one society Multi-societies sponsored journals Local journals Regional journals Single subject scope journal Broad scope journals Think about APAME publishing group !!
