2. The Open Access Landscape

3. Since 2002, the open access movement has impacted areas of information dissemination and policy across the globe Open Access Landscape Sources: Heather Morrison, "Dramatic Growth of Open Access", http://hdl.handle.net/1902.1/14446 V14.

4. OA journals are growing at 15% a year, while subscription journals are growing at 3.5% a year. Open Access Landscape Source: M. Laakso et al. PLoS ONE 6, e20961 (2011).

5. Public Library of Science has a succinct definition: “All PLOS content is Open Access, meaning it is freely accessible online to everyone, everywhere.” What is OA? http://www.plos.org/#4

6. Two models: – Gold OA: Open Access Journals Peer Reviewed, some charge author fees – Green OA: Open Access Repositories Hosts content created/vetted elsewhere (preprint, postprint), generally charges no fees. What is OA?

7. Solomon & Björk, A study of open access journals using article processing charges, J Am Soc Inf Sci Tec, 8/2012: “ The average APC was $906 calculated over journals and $904 calculated over articles.” Gold OA Publication fees? http://www.openaccesspublishing.org/apc2/ Top 50 highest impact factor Mathematics journals in ISI’s JCR: – 3 are OA – 2 charge fees, avg. $1000 – 1 (published by AMS) does not

8. COPE Funding: – Compact for Open-Access Publishing Equity – “…each of the undersigned universities commits to the timely establishment of durable mechanisms for underwriting reasonable publication charges for articles written by its faculty and published in fee-based open-access journals and for which other institutions would not be expected to provide funds.” Gold OA Publication fees? http://www.oacompact.org/compact/

9. The Open Access Advantage

10. Green OA and Citation Impact Open Access articles enjoy a proven citation advantage over articles not freely available.

11. Lawrence, Nature 411 (2001): Free online availability substantially increases a paper’s impact Norris et al, J of the Am. Soc. For Info Sci & Tech 59.12 (2008): The citation advantage of open-access articles Davis & Fromerth, Scientometrics 71.2 (5/2007): Does the arXiv lead to higher citations and reduced publisher downloads for mathematics articles? Gargouri et al, PLoS One 5.10 (2010): Self-Selected or Mandated, Open Access Increases Citation Impact for Higher Quality Research Green OA and Citation Impact Summary of research at: http://eprints.soton.ac.uk/268516/2/Citation_advantage_paper.pdf

12. Green OA and Citation Impact Open access articles are viewed and cited more frequently than non-open access articles – Download advantage – Competitive advantage – Accessibility advantage Source: Brody & Harnad (2004). “Comparing the Impact of Open Access (OA) vs. Non-OA Articles in the Same Journals.” D-Lib Magazine, 10(4), Available at http://www.dlib.org/dlib/june04/harnad/06harnad.htmlBrody & Harnad

13. Yes, DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals) titles routinely indexed in MathSciNet, Scopus, Zentralblatt MATH Does OA Literature Make It Into Systematic Reviews?

14. Higher citation counts for your research. Archival material of higher importance in mathematics than other disciplines. OA pushes against the negative economic factors current in scholarly publishing Can be a method of retaining certain of the author’s copyrights. Yes, but is it important to make your work OA?

15. Analysis of top 20 Mathematics journals in 3 categories in JCR shows that at least 95% allow for self- archiving. Green OA and Mathematics Journals Check Sherpa/Romeo for publisher policy on any individual journal.

16. Open Access at Wayne State

17. OA and impact factor! By depositing your manuscripts in the DigitalCommons@WayneState (Green OA), you can make the work freely accessible and available in full-text. Depositing work in DC@WSU does not require that you publish in a gold OA journal. OA or Impact Factor (or Green vs. Gold)?
