„ CSSL is the heart of the FSS: information are blood circulation of/for the society, CSS supports the flow of social science information in Slovenia.“
(Dejan Verčič, Družboslovje med čisto dušo znanosti in umazanim telesom zaposljivosti. V: Odgovornost za razvoj družboslovja, Ljubljana, FDV )
Extensive knowledge about OA and researchers interest in OA.

15. … OA labyrinth … Respect for authors‘ needs, interests !
Respect for the ignorance about OA – they don‘t have time to follow all aspects!
May 17th 2017

16. Rationale 1:
„ very few of us are ever taught how to effectively communicate our research, or even why doing so is important.“ (Illingworth, 2016)
May 17th 2017

17. Rationale 2:
96 % of Slovene researchers claim available time to do research as the most important factor for their research work.
(Klemenčič et al, 2015: Pogoji akademskega dela v Sloveniji : ugotovitve študije EUROAC 2013)

18. Are the librarians qualified to act within this OA labyrint?
Tasks:
Inform
Counsel

28. Social Sciences characteristics
Special attention to the discrepancies of funders‘ requirements and publishers‘ OA policies
Often longer embargos for social sciences articles
V družboslovju in humanistiki moramo biti še posebej pozorni na skladnost politik financerjev s politikami založnikov, ker praviloma na našem področju veljajo daljši embargi za objavo v zelenem odprtem dostopu.
Izjema je Cambridge University Press (CUP), ki je ubral ravno nasprotno taktiko, tako za post print verzije člankov (po postopku peer review), ki so objavljeni v revijah s področja družboslovja in humanistike ne določa embarga. Za članke v revijah s področja naravoslovja, tehnike in medicine pa predvideva 6 mesecev embarga.

„Self-evaluation of OA impact on visibility of researcher‘s work“
CSSL support: citation search, OA publications search, repository and FSS databases statistics, alternative metrics
Samoevalvacijska ocena učinkov odprtodostopnih recenziranih znanstvenih objav, ki se nanašajo na raziskovalne rezultate
Raziskovalec samooceni, ali je njegova odprtodostopna objava povečala vidnost njegovega raziskovalnega dela.
Kot podlago za to oceno lahko navedejo bibliografske podatke za svoje objave, ki so dostopne v OD (s povezavo na objavo v OD). Priložijo lahko statistike dostopov / ogledov / prenosov člankov npr. iz repozitorija(jev) ali iz drugih kanalov, preko katerih so članki odprto dostopni.
Za objave v OD lahko priložijo podatke o citiranosti iz citatnih indeksov WoS in Scopus (tradicionalne metrike) ali tudi alternativne metrike. Alternativna metrika skuša zajeti prisotnost v novih raziskovalnih prizoriščih, prisotnost in vpliv družbenih medijev in drugih oblik spletnega udejstvovanja. Govorimo o t. i. altmetriki (altmetrics), ki se razlikuje od tradicionalnih metod merjenja, ki jih uporabljajo Web of Science, Scopus in druge podatkovne zbirke.
Repozitorij UL omogoča sledenje št. ogledov in prenosov.
V izpis bibliografij v SICRIS sta bila testno implementirana prikaza alternativne metrike dveh ponudnikov, tj. Altmetric in Plum Analytics. Plum Analytics je zaenkrat testno vključen tudi v Digitalno knjižnico Univerze v Ljubljani (DiKUL). Altmetric ponuja tudi brezplačni aktivni zaznamek (bookmarklet), ki ga lahko dodate v svoj brskalnik in daje altmetrics podatke za vsako DOI številko, ki jo zazna na spletni strani, ki jo trenutno pregledujete. (povezava v vodiču)
Svojo metriko imajo tudi nekatere raziskovalne skupnosti, kot so Researchgate, Academia.edu ipd. Če ste vključeni v te skupnosti in imate svoj profil, lahko pogledate njihovo metriko. Če uporabljate Mendeley, tj. orodje za upravljanje z referencami, lahko tudi tam preverite statistiko.
Več o alternativni metriki lahko najdete v raziskovalnem vodiču Raziskovalni vpliv in vidnost: tradicionalna in alternativna metrika, ki se nahaja na tej povezavi:
Raziskovalec lahko tudi navede, katere objave zaradi restriktivnih založniških politik še ne morejo biti dostopne v OD oziroma kdaj bodo (po poteku embarga).
28.Pristop k objavljanju objav in rezultatov programske skupine v odprtem dostopu (Programme group's approach on the open access publishing of research results)26
26 Opišite pristop k objavljanju objav in rezultatov programske skupine v odprtem dostopu ter navedite kako objavljanje objav in rezultatov v odprtem dostopu vpliva na kakovost objav programske skupine. Največ znakov, vključno s presledki (približno pol strani, velikosti pisave 11).
Tu definirate “strategijo” oziroma načrte svoje raziskovalne skupine, s katero se bodo lotili objavljanja svojih raziskovalnih rezultatov v OD.  Te strategije so lahko različne, glede na odločitev programske skupine, ali in pod kakšnimi pogoji bo dala svoje objave v OD.
Primer pristopa:
Vse objave, za katere je to možno glede na založniške politike, bomo objavili v RUL v skladu zahtevami založnika.
Za članke, za katere po pogodbi s financerjem moramo zagotoviti OD, a so embargi, ki jih zahteva založnik daljši od najdaljših embargv, ki jih določi financer, bomo poskrbeli za plačilo APC iz projektnih sredstev, ki so za to predvidena ali pa se bomo z založnikom dogovorili za izjemo.
Če bo na voljo ustrezna OD revija (zlati OD) bomo dali prednost temu načinu objave, pred objavo v hibridni reviji.

37. Sample of the research group‘s approach
„All papers in accordance with publisher‘s policy and rules will be published in RUL (green OA).
In the case of discrepancy of publisher‘s embargo and funder‘s mandate we‘ll assure project funds for APC or we‘ll negotiate the exception with the publisher.
We‘ll preferentialy publish in gold OA scientific journals over hybrid journals, if possible. „
