Open Access projects in Macedonia: The first steps Irina Shumadieva, Metamorphosis Foundation 1

Current situation Low level of e-content –most apparent in the area of education –evidently in languages other than Macedonian –commercial websites actively create content (limited topics) –bloggers and forum members - important contributors in local e-content Most scientific institutions publish journals, but very few do it online Few exceptions, for example Mirko Spiroski: From 8 Macedonian Medical Journals selected on the base of specific criteria, only 1 has online ISSN and only 2 have websites proper for online publishing of scientific papers …regarding online content in general 2

Current situation Low awareness Low skills by perspective users Lack of interest and capacities by relevant institutions Discouragement due to low feedback level Unavailable contents from students Plagiarism and disuse of attribution …regarding open access in particular 3

Previous Open Access Initiatives Trainings Guide Events, Conference Sessions (e-Society.mk 2006, e-Society.mk 2008) Tech support for open access science publication (philologicalstudies.org)philologicalstudies.org Open letter to the Ministry of Education and Science and the Government of RM Promotion of Creative Commons licenses 4
