7. November 2004Lars Björnshauge7 Selection criteria Agreed upon in the beginning of the project Open Access Quality control measures, the journal must exercise peer-review or editorial quality control to be included. Scientific or scholarly content

8. November 2004Lars Björnshauge8 Open Access – our definition We define open access journals as journals that use a funding model that does not charge readers or their institutions for access. From the BOAI definition of "open access" we take the right of "users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles" as mandatory for a journal to be included in the directory.

9. November 2004Lars Björnshauge9 Number of journals May 2003: 300 November 2003: 558 May 2004: 1097 September 2004: 1231 November 2004:1345

12. November 2004Lars Björnshauge12 So far … Global visibility and dissemination of records –Integrated in OPAC´s in many, many libraries –Several service providers are linking into DOAJ –Integrated in the services of aggregators (Ullrichs, Ebsco etc.) Frequently referred to as the most important listing

23. November 2004Lars Björnshauge23 Some statements from librarians

24. November 2004Lars Björnshauge24 “Since the beginning of this program, Lund University has provided encouragement to faculty and librarians throughout the globe in providing secure and comprehensive access to important journals that are freely available world wide. DOAJ has demonstrated the growing importance of alternatives to large scale commercial publishing.” Frances Groen, Trenholme Director of Libraries, McGill University, Canada.

25. November 2004Lars Björnshauge25 The Directory of Open Access Journals is of paramount importance for the open access movement. The site demonstrates the viability of new approaches in scientific publishing and its strong growth is a source of inspiration and encouragement to all who are working at an opener access to the results of academic research. Numerous reports and important policy statements use the site as a point of reference. Leo Waijers, Library Director, University of Wanegen, Netherlands

26. November 2004Lars Björnshauge26 Where do we go from here? Network of editors Make journals aware of possibilities Personalization – MyDOAJ Hybrid Journals Sponsorship programme

27. November 2004Lars Björnshauge27 Integration of OA-material in Library & Information Services The problem: –conventional subscription based material flows seamlessly into library services –supported by publishers, subscriptionsagents, aggregators etc. –how to expose Open Access material to users??

28. November 2004Lars Björnshauge28 The bundling strategy Bundling: the strategy of the commercial ”big deal” publishers)  In terms of access and usage bundling means: 1.One database 2.One single point of access – limited to the content of one publisher 3.Visibility for low usage (low quality?) journals

29. November 2004Lars Björnshauge29 An integration strategy Integration means: 1.One database 2.One single point of access – independent of publishers 3.Visibility for smaller, not-for-profit publishers And 4.Visibility for Institutional or Subject based Repositories and Open Access journals

50. November 2004Lars Björnshauge50 The Open Access debate as vehicle for promoting the issues of Scholarly Communication and Open Access into the agenda of the university, associations, research funders etc

51. November 2004Lars Björnshauge51 How we work with scholarly communication issues  Working at  The local level – within the university  The national level  Internationally

52. November 2004Lars Björnshauge52 Working within the university  The main problem – creating awareness!  Making researchers aware  Making university decision makers aware  The pricing issues the starting point, but rapidly moving beyond that

62. November 2004Lars Björnshauge62 Observations and recommendations: There is a need for changes in the current system for scholarly publishing The universities need to establish conditions for creating professional publishing services within universities and university colleges (BOAI 1) As of today the libraries are the natural choice for the organisation of such activities.

63. November 2004Lars Björnshauge63 SUHF will Establish a task force to look at intellectual property rights agreements Investigate the long term effects of the current system of scholarly publishing Investigate and evaluate current research assessment and merit systems and Promote alternative approaches based on university publishing and other initiatives for open access publishing

64. November 2004Lars Björnshauge64 SUHF has Appointed a task force to: –Initiate discussions with research councils/funders initiated –Draft Intellectual Property Rights agreements – retaining rights to deposit pre-/postprints on university servers etc The task force will suggest SUHF to sign the Berlin Declaration later this year - DONE

65. November 2004Lars Björnshauge65 SVEP (Electronic Publishing in Swedish Universities) Aim: –Promote and coordinate the development of electronic publishing at Swedish Universities Funded by BIBSAM (Royal Library, Sweden) Participants: –Uppsala, Gothenburg, Lund etc.
