DESCRIPTION
OA to publications The two strategies green OA and gold OA present both strenghts and weaknesses Green OA : self-archiving of accepted manuscripts require policy, mandates in order to populate OA repositories, negotiations with publishers, change in habits and behaviour of researchers, battle against prejudices, false myths against OA Gold OA: economic sustainability to publish peer reviewed OA journals; who is paying? the authors, their institutions, funders, consortium, sponsors…. again prejudices against OA We are in a transition period with a big dilemma: will the research community take a full charge of the future of OA scholarly communication or will it wait until commercial publishers lead the OA movement to their ends at high costs for researchers and for society?

OA Challenges and expectations: 2014 -2020
14th Sell Meeting,May 22-23rd Florence
Cineca 2014
Context
• Open Access – Open Science• Open Science
• E-research environment• E-work-flow; Research assessment/ monitoring• Data generation, creation/collection, selection, curation,
access/discoverability, preservation, etc• Data management plan, policy, sharing behaviours• E-publications: production, access and discoverability,
preservation
OA to publicationsThe two strategies green OA and gold OA present both strenghts and weaknesses
• Green OA : self-archiving of accepted manuscripts require policy, mandates in order to populate OA repositories, negotiations with publishers, change in habits and behaviour of researchers, battle against prejudices, false myths against OA
• Gold OA: economic sustainability to publish peer reviewed OA journals; who is paying? the authors, their institutions, funders, consortium, sponsors…. again prejudices against OA
We are in a transition period with a big dilemma: will the research community take a full charge of the future of OA scholarly communication or will it wait until commercial publishers lead the OA movement to their ends at high costs for researchers and for society? (Richard Poynder)
• Mandates : international, national and, institutional issue• Is the only way to succeed in making the OA output accessible? Which are the
possible alternatives?• How to improve the visibility of institutional research output
• Discoverability (Metadata, persistent identifiers, data citation etc)
• IR as part of the e-research environment
• IR and open research data (long tail data)
Institutional repositories
OA to research dataOpen Research Data is a new area quite complex
•infrastructure,
•governance,
•costs,
•management plans,
•policy,
• sharing behaviours,
•New skills and professions, training
•Discoverability
•Access
•preservation etc)
• Discipline differences
which need to be addressed
The role of libraries and Open Science
• Close collaboration between Research Office, researchers, IT and libraries
• What is the contribution of libraries to this new dynamic context
• New compentencies and skills are requested for library professionals
Thanks !
