Closed and semi-closed access Non-OA journals provide access at a subscription or pay-per-view costs Delayed open access is when journals provide full access after a 6-12 month embargo period of 6–12 months
7
Who pays for OA The author’s employer or research funding agency Journals waiving fees for the authors from developing countries, those with financial hardships Individual author

OA options Green OA Green OA - authors publish an article and self-archive in a repository peer-reviewed post-print (revised final or the publisher’s version of the article). “Green” light is dependent on the Publisher Copyright Policies and Self-Archiving Gold OA Gold OA authors publish in an open-access journal with immediate OA to all of its contents on the publisher’s website Hybrid OA Hybrid OA – access is open only for journal articles for which their authors/funders pay a fee

It is aimed at accelerating the pace of discovery, innovations, and enrich education. Open Access - readers, practitioners, and researchers are able to obtain content at no cost. Open Access components - readership, reuse, copyright, posting and machine readability. Immediate availability and reuse are ideal for open access model

Advantages of OA: citations Analysis of OA vs. non-OA articles published in June-Dec 2004 the Proceedings of the NAS (PNAS) 212 (14.2%) – OA 1,280 (85.8%) - non-OA After 10-16 months post-publication average citations of OA articles were 6.4 vs. 4.5; P<0.001, and after correction for confounders OA articles were 3 times more likely to be cited Eysenbach G. Citation advantage of open access articles. PLoS Biol 2006;4(5):e157.
33
Advantages of OA: downloads OA articles are downloaded more (3 times more within a year), but not obligatory cited Davis PM. Open access, readership, citations: a randomized controlled trial of scientific journal publishing. FASEB J 2011;25(7):2129-34
34
Advantages of OA: academic OA articles are read more and used for academic and medical purposes Hardisty DJ, Haaga DA. Diffusion of treatment research: does Open Access matter? J Clin Psychol 2008;64(7):821-39.
35
Advantages of OA: financial 434 journals >450 employees $800 per article “Borderline case” of predatory publishing J.Beall
36
Advantages of OA: self-cleaning of evidence base 2414 (80%) of the retracted items published from 2000 to 2013

Predatory publishing: be aware! publishersPotential, possible, or probable predatory scholarly open- access publishers journalsPotential, possible, or probable predatory scholarly open-access journals http://scholarlyoa.com/publishers/ Jeffrey Beall Auraria Library, University of Colorado, Denver, Colorado, USA

Criteria of predatory publishing Editor and staff Publisher Integrity Other https://scholarlyoa.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/criteria-2015.pdf The publisher includes text on its website that describes the open access movement and then foists the publisher as if the publisher is active in fulfilling the movement’s values and goals.

Examples of Predatory Journals

Distinguishing legitimate journals 1. Is the journal in the Beall’s list? 2. If the journal claims to be an open access journal, is it in the DOAJ? 3. Is the publisher a member of a recognised professional organisation (COPE, Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association (OASPA)? 4. Is the journal indexed/archived by PubMed Central, WoS? 5. Is the journal transparent about editorial and peer review, governance, and ownership?
