Outline OA Repositories Green and Gold Content types Repository drivers and barriers Copyright and licensing Sherpa services: RoMEO, JULIET, OpenDOAR The Repositories Support Project (RSP)

What is Open Access Literature? “Open-access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. What makes it possible is the internet and the consent of the author or copyright-holder. “ Peter Suber http://www.earlham.edu/~peters/fos/brief.htm

What is a repository? A mechanism for managing and storing digital content Subject or institutional in their focus Wide range of content deposited for a variety of purposes and users Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting and/or RSS) the metadata can then be harvested by external services and exposed to the wider world Typically content can include research outputs such as journal articles or research data, e-theses, e-learning objects and teaching materials, and administrative data. Some repositories only take in particular items (such as theses or journal papers), whilst others seek to gather any credible scholarly work produced by the institution; limited only by each author's retained rights from publishers. However, some more complex objects (websites, advanced learning objects, 3D topographical representations and other data sets) do present a technological challenge.

OA Repositories…the ‘Green’ Route Authors deposit pre-print, post-print, or publisher’s pdf As well as, not instead of, traditional journal publishing Institutional, subject-based, or national repositories TARA (Trinity College, University of Dublin) UK PubMed Central HAL (Hyper Article on Line) HAL is a multi-disciplinary open access archive for the deposit and dissemination of scientific research papers, whether they are published or not, and for PhD dissertation. The documents may come from teaching and research institutions in France or abroad, or from public or private research centres.

The Gold Route Publish articles in an open-access journal or Publish in a “hybrid” journal that offers an open-access publishing option alongside traditional methods http://www.doaj.org /

Types of materials stored in repositories Journal articles Bibliographic references (metadata only) Books, sections and chapters Conference and workshop papers Theses and Dissertations Unpublished reports & working papers Datasets Educational resources and learning objects Multimedia and audio-visual materials Software Patents Repositories aim to make content accessible to wider user groups - sometimes at a global level. ‘Closed’ repositories are designed to support sharing within a specific group and are sometimes described as 'closed'

Drivers Scholarly communication Improves research management Increases visibility and impact of research outputs Global ‘Open Education’ Movement Developing a digital preservation policy Ready for REF 2014 - CERIF4REF plug-ins for repositories which allow institutions to efficiently submit REF compliant publications data It is important to think about the long term future of the material entrusted to your repository. You should ensure that it continues to be readable as technology and file formats change, and as your organisational circumstances change. It may be necessary to establish different policies for different types of materials. Some content may need to be kept as deposited whilst other materials may need to reflect change. Learning and teaching materials in some subject areas are, by nature, more likely to be updated.

Barriers Copyright confusion Complicated workflows Lack of ‘buy-in’ Staffing and technology issues Lack of advocacy Apathy Publishers policies

Creative Commons http://creativecommons.org/licenses/ What our licenses do The Creative Commons copyright licenses and tools forge a balance inside the traditional “all rights reserved” setting that copyright law creates. Our tools give everyone from individual creators to large companies and institutions a simple, standardized way to grant copyright permissions to their creative work. The combination of our tools and our users is a vast and growing digital commons, a pool of content that can be copied, distributed, edited, remixed, and built upon, all within the boundaries of copyright law.

Copyright and self-archiving RoMEO http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo/ Contains publishers' general policies on self-archiving of journal articles and certain conference series Each entry provides a summary of the publisher's policy, including what version of an article can be deposited, where it can be deposited, and any conditions that are attached to that deposit

RoMEO functions Interpretation and clarification of publisher policies Dialogue with stakeholders, particularly publishers and funders ‘Honest broker’ role Human and machine-readable interfaces

JULIET http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/juliet/ List of funder OA requirements Links to policies Sorting by funding agency or country Guidance on: OA Archiving, OA Publishing, Data Archiving, and general information on compliance and link to the funders position statement/policy on OA To maximise the dissemination of the research they fund, the grant conditions of funding organisations increasingly require peer-reviewed research outputs to be made freely available to the public in full at the earliest possible date. These aims can be achieved either by archiving publications in an Open Access repository, or by publishing in an Open Access publication. JULIET assigns Open Access ticks () for the key conditions that should ideally be met for each type of policy. If a policy fails to meet a key condition, a dash () is shown instead.

OpenDOAR http://www.opendoar.org/ Authoritative directory of OA repositories 2000 listings Search for repositories Search repository contents A wide range of statistical charts, for example: - repositories by country; repositories by contintent; repositories by subject The Directory of Open Access Repositories -
