Mike Carroll is speaking about Libre OA, which means immediate, = permanent online access, free for all on the Web=20 (i.e., Gratis OA) plus certain further re-use, re-publication and re-mix = rights. (Note that many peer-reviewed journal article authors may not want to = allow others to make and publish re-mixes of their verbatim texts. = Journal article texts are not like music, videos, software or even = research data, out of which creative modifications and remixes can be = valuable. All scholars and scientists desire that their findings and = ideas should be accessed, re-used, applied and built-upon, but not = necessarily that their words should be re-mixed or even re-published -- = just accessible free for all online, immediately and permanently.) Today, the only peer-reviewed research journal articles to which = researchers have access are those to which their institutions can afford = subscription/licensed access. That means research is losing the uptake = and impact of all those potential users who are denied access to it. All researchers want free online access to all research they may need to = consult or use, not just the research to which their institutions can = afford subscription access.=20 All researchers want their research to be accessible to all researchers = who may need to consult or use it, not just to those whose institutions = can afford subscription access. It is not at all it clear, however, that researchers want and need the = right to make and publish re-mixes of other researchers' verbatim texts. Nor is it clear that all or most researchers want to allow others to = make and publish re-mixes of their verbatim texts.=20 Hence Gratis OA clearly fulfills an important, universal and = longstanding universal need of research and researchers. But it is not at all clear that this is true of Libre OA -- at least not = for the very special case of the peer-reviewed research journal article = texts that are the primary, specific target content of the OA movement. Hence it is not at all clear that there is anything T&F need to correct. > A fully open access journal > is one that publishes on the web without delay *and* which gives = readers > the full set of reuse rights conditioned only on the requirement that > users provide proper attribution. > = http://www.plosbiology.org/article/info:doi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pbio.100 > 1210 I believe that is not the definition of a fully OA journal but of a = Libre OA journal. > T&F's "Open" program and "Open Select" offer ↵ pseudo open access. Gratis OA is not pseudo open access. It is the difference between night = and day for researchers who are denied access to the publisher's version = of record because their institutions cannot afford access. And night is the current state of affairs for 80% of research, and has = been for the past 20 years, even though the means to provide Gratis OA = (fully) have been available for at least that long. Gratis OA can be provided in two different ways:=20 Gold OA journals like the T&F journals offer Gratis Gold OA, for which = the author -- meaning the author's institution or funder -- must pay a = publication fee. But most journals are not Gold OA journals, and hence = the potential funds to pay for Gold OA are still locked up in = institutional subscriptions to non-OA journals. That means that not only can most research not be made OA by publishing = it in Gold OA journals (since most journals are non-OA), but even for = the Gold OA journals, the money to pay the publication fees (of = those,like T&F, that charge a publication fee) is tied up in paying for = non-OA subscription journals). (This is equally true irrespective of whether the Gold OA journals offer = Gratis OA or Libre OA.) The second way to provide Gratis OA is through Green OA self-archiving = (i.e., depositing the author's peer-reviewed final draft in the author's = Institutional OA Repository immediately upon acceptance for = publication). Unlike Gold OA, Green OA does not require paying a publication fee. And = Green OA can be provided for all articles, not just articles published = in Gold OA journals. And, most important, Green OA self-archiving can be mandated by = researchers' institutions and funders, whereas publishing in Gold OA = journals cannot be mandated. (Publishers cannot be compelled to convert = to Gold OA; reserchers cannot be told which journal to publish in; and = the money to pay for Gold OA is locked into journal subscriptions, which = cannot be cancelled until and unless the contents of those subscription = journals are otherwise accessible.) Most Green OA (and Green OA mandates) are Gratis Green OA -- free online = access. But that is still the difference between night and day for researchers. And Gratis Green OA self-archiving (but not Libre Green OA = self-archiving) is already endorsed by over 60% of journals -- including = the top journals in most fields. So please let us not belittle Gratis OA as not "fully" OA (and ↵ certainly = not before we have it!). Let us provide it, and mandate providing it. And let us not keep focusing on Gold OA: The fastest, surest and = cheapest way to full OA is for institutions and funders to mandate = Gratis Green OA self-archiving. (And, as a bonus, that's also the fastest, surest and cheapest way to = Gold OA as well as Libre OA, thereafter.) Harnad, S. (2007) The Green Road to Open Access: A Leveraged Transition. = In: The Culture of Periodicals from the Perspective of the Electronic = Age, pp. 99-105, L'Harmattan. ABSTRACT: What the research community needs, urgently, is free online = access (Open Access, OA) to its own peer-reviewed research output. = Researchers can provide OA in two ways: by publishing their articles in = OA journals (Gold OA) or by continuing to publish in non-OA journals and = self-archiving their final peer-reviewed drafts in their own OA = Institutional Repositories (Green OA). OA self-archiving, once it is = mandated by research institutions and funders, can reliably generate = 100% Green OA. Gold OA requires journals to convert to OA publishing = (which is not in the hands of the research community) and also requires = the funds to cover the Gold OA publication costs. With 100% Green OA, = the research community's access and impact problems are already solved. = If and when 100% Green OA causes significant cancellation pressure (no = one knows whether or when that will happen, because OA Green grows = anarchically, article by article, not journal by journal) then the = cancellation pressure will cause cost-cutting, downsizing and eventually = a leveraged transition to OA (Gold) publishing on the part of journals. = As subscription revenues shrink, institutional windfall savings from = cancellations grow. If and when journal subscriptions become = unsustainable, per-article publishing costs will be low enough, and = institutional savings will be high enough to cover them, because = publishing will have downsized to just peer-review service provision = alone, offloading text-generation onto authors and access-provision and = archiving onto the global network of OA Institutional Repositories. = Green OA will have leveraged a transition to Gold OA. Harnad, S. (2010) The Immediate Practical Implication of the Houghton = Report: Provide Green Open Access Now. Prometheus, 28 (1). pp. 55-59. ABSTRACT: Among the many important implications of Houghton et al=92s = (2009) timely and illuminating JISC analysis of the costs and benefits = of providing free online access (=93Open Access,=94 OA) to peer-reviewed = scholarly and scientific journal articles one stands out as particularly = compelling: It would yield a forty-fold benefit/cost ratio if the = world=92s peer-reviewed research were all self-archived by its authors = so as to make it OA. There are many assumptions and estimates underlying = Houghton et al=92s modelling, but they are for the most part very = reasonable and even conservative. This makes their strongest practical = implication particularly striking: The 40-fold benefit/cost ratio of = providing Green OA is an order of magnitude greater than all the other = potential combinations of alternatives to the status quo analyzed and = compared by Houghton et al. This outcome is all the more significant in = light of the fact that self-archiving already rests entirely in the = hands of the research community (researchers, their institutions and = their funders), whereas OA publishing depends on the publishing = community. This outcome emerged from studies that approached the problem = primarily from the standpoint of the economics of publication rather = than the economics of research. Harnad, S. (2010) No-Fault Peer Review Charges: The Price of Selectivity = Need Not Be Access Denied or Delayed. D-Lib Magazine, 16 (7/8). ABSTRACT: Plans by universities and research funders to pay the costs of = Open Access Publishing ("Gold OA") are premature. Funds are short; ↵ 80% = of journals are still subscription-based, tying up the funds to pay for = Gold OA; the asking price for Gold OA is still high; there is concern = that paying to publish may inflate acceptance rates and lower quality = standards. Universities and funders need to mandate OA self-archiving = ("Green OA"). That provides immediate OA; if and when universal Green ↵ OA = makes subscriptions unsustainable (because users are satisfied with just = Green OA versions) that will induce journals to cut costs (print = edition, online edition, access-provision, archiving), downsize to just = providing the service of peer review, and convert to the Gold OA = cost-recovery model; meanwhile, subscription cancellations will = releasethe funds to pay these residual service costs. The natural way to = charge for the service of peer review then will be on a "no-fault = basis," with the author's institution or funder paying for each round of = refereeing, regardless of outcome (acceptance, revision/re-refereeing, = or rejection). This will minimize cost while protecting against inflated = acceptance rates and decline in quality standards. > Could you please explain why T&F needs to reserve substantial reuse > rights after the author or her funder has paid for the costs of > publication? This question is valid -- but it is beside the point for the first and = most important objective of the OA movement (still not reached in over a = decade of trying), namely, immediate, permanent online access, free for = all on the Web (i.e., Gratis OA). T&F's Gratis Gold OA would provide that; but even if T&F provided Libre ↵ = Gold OA, that would not be the fastest, surest or cheapest way to reach = full OA -- by which I mean free online access to all 2.5 million = articles published annually in the planet's 25,000 peer-reviewed = journals. See the growth curves in Richard Poynder's "Open Access By = Numbers": = http://poynder.blogspot.com/2011/06/open-access-by-numbers.html Free online access is what research and researchers need most. Mandating = Gratis Green OA self-archiving will provide just that -- and Gold OA, = and as much Libre OA as researchers actually need and want -- will be = not far behind. But not if we keep over-reaching for Libre OA or Gold OA instead of = providing and mandating Gratis Green OA. > If your response is that the article processing charge does not > represent the full cost of publication, what charge would? Why aren't > authors given the option to purchase full open access? Even the money to pay for Gratis Gold OA is still tied up in = subscriptions, while subscriptions are still being paid for (and thereby = paying for publication costs in full).=20 And mandating Gratis Green OA can provide free access at no extra cost, = while subscriptions are still being paid for (and thereby paying for = publication costs in full). So why think about paying even more for Libre Gold OA today, when it's = not at all clear that researchers want or need it -- whereas it's = certain that they want and need Gratis OA (and they don't yet have it)?
