Open access academic resources

What is Open Access ?
ACADEMIC SCIENTIFIC BIBLIOGRAPHIC RESOURCES
digital, online, permanent, “free” from most restrictions due to commercial exploitation of intellectual property rights.
“open” as far as computer science architecture is concerned (its interface facilitates dissemination and retrieval of contents by a provider)
“open” does not mean “free” or “forever”
according to an alternative economic model (author/institution pays) = research outputs belong to research insitutions and authors, not publishers
disseminated not alternatively to traditional commercial publishing models, but in a complementary way.

Some definitions
Eprints (generic term) : electronic versions of articles, before or after refereeing and/or publication
Preprints : versions of articles before refereeing (peer-review)
Postprints : versions of articles after refereeing (not necessarily with the original publisher’s layout)
Corrigenda : list of variations which distinguish a preprint without referee from a refereed postprint (which can be archived together with the preprint if the publisher does not allow the postprint to be archived).

Peer review
Open Access is absolutely peer-review compatible:
Open Archives (= Repositories) do notdo not require have peer review but part of its content can becan be peer reviewed (i.e.: refereed post-prints).
(Most) Open Access Journals do havedo have peer review.

Why Open Access ?
Why do we have to pay n times for publicly funded research ?
We should reaffirm students’ and professors’ right to reaserch.

(Nice) Side-effects of Open Access
Wider and faster dissemination of research outputs greater impact of research outputs on
(intern)ational academic community simpler and more immediate use of and access to
the output greater visibility of each author’s research outputs
and of his/her institution author’s control on his/her intellectual property
and publications

Visibility
self-archiving in a repository OAI-PMH makes the difference
search on Google or Google Scholar; your item will be retrieved as one of the first hits by the search engine.
vs. “deep web” (not freely accessible websites – i.e. password protected or with a fee (such as bibliographic databases))
vs. HTML pages as a result of a search in a catalogue

Access and impact

OA and IF …
(ottobre 2004) Thomson Scientific - ISI Web of Science : Web Citation Index™ (beta). Indexes open archives (both institutional and subject), by retrieving abstracts and, when available, full texts.(http://www.jisc-collections.ac.uk/news_and_events/news_articles/web_citation_update ).
The product is available for customers starting from the end of 2008 (http://isiwebofknowledge.com/currentuser_wokhome/cu_productspecs/tswebplus/ ).
More than 200 open access journals were already indexed by ISI in 2004.

OA vs. IF ?
Impact Factor = ISI Web of Science
questionable mathematical (and commercial !) model
Citation Impact, downloads (“hits”), webometrics
