Goals for today:
• Educate ourselves about OA
• Become familiar with OA resources at Pitt
• Understand how OA can positively impact your research and publishing
• Learn about tools that support OA
• Know how the OSCP can help

Open Access is…
• A family of copyright licensing policies under which authors and copyright owners make their works publicly available
• A movement in higher education to increase access to scholarly research and communication, not limiting it solely to subscribers or purchasers of works
• A response to the current crisis in scholarly communication
![Page 4: Open Access Greater Impact for Your Research Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing University Library System University of Pittsburgh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649cb85503460f9497ddff/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
OA Overview
• Open Access literature is digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions
• Works are still covered by copyright law, but Open Access terms apply to allow sharing and reuse
• All major OA initiatives for scientific and scholarly literature insist on the importance of peer review
![Page 5: Open Access Greater Impact for Your Research Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing University Library System University of Pittsburgh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649cb85503460f9497ddff/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
OA is compatible with . . .
• Copyright• Peer review• Revenue (even
profit)• Print• Preservation• Prestige
• Quality• Career
advancement• Indexing• And other features
and supportive services associated with conventional scholarly literature
![Page 6: Open Access Greater Impact for Your Research Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing University Library System University of Pittsburgh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649cb85503460f9497ddff/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Open Access is not . . .
• Open Source—applies to computer software
• Open Content—applies to non-scholarly content
• Open Data—a movement to support sharing of research data (see data.gov)
• Free Access—no charge to access, but all rights may be reserved

• Number of scientific articles indexed by ISI was 590,841 in 1990 and 1,015,637 in 2009 – a rise of 72% 1990-2009
![Page 8: Open Access Greater Impact for Your Research Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing University Library System University of Pittsburgh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649cb85503460f9497ddff/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Concentration of ownership• Nearly 50% of the content of the merged ISI
Indexes consists of titles from 5 major publishers—– Elsevier– Wiley– Springer– Taylor & Francis– Sage

Proposed OA Policy @Pitt• Provides for dissemination of scholarly works
(articles only) by university authors based on Open Access principles
• University authors include faculty, postdoctoral associates, and postdoctoral students
• Scholarly works to be deposited in the University’s institutional repository, D-Scholarship@Pitt
• Deposits made by the University Library System’s Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing
![Page 27: Open Access Greater Impact for Your Research Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing University Library System University of Pittsburgh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649cb85503460f9497ddff/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Proposed OA Policy @Pitt• Not intended to impose limitations on where
university authors can publish, now or in the future
• Applies only to scholarly works for which the author retains copyright or the publisher allows deposit in local repository
• Depending on publisher policy, authors may deposit:– author’s pre-publication manuscript– final edited copy (pre-print)– final published version (post-print)
• Includes provisions to waive deposit requirement if permission is not granted by the publisher
![Page 28: Open Access Greater Impact for Your Research Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing University Library System University of Pittsburgh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649cb85503460f9497ddff/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
OA and “U”: Why Open Access?• Increase the visibility and discovery of the
research output of the University of Pittsburgh and its faculty
• Support the University’s mission of service by disseminating research results to the global academic community
• Readily demonstrate the high level of research conducted at the University to international ratings agencies and colleagues
![Page 29: Open Access Greater Impact for Your Research Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing University Library System University of Pittsburgh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649cb85503460f9497ddff/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
OA and *You*• Greater access
– More scholars view and read work– Extends the global reach of research– Reduces or eliminates price/permission barriers of
subscription journals
• More progress– Promotes speed, productivity, and knowledge translation– Allows authors to share research for the public good, not
only with colleagues at the University of Pittsburgh but around the world
• Long-term preservation in a trusted repository
• Greater impact
![Page 30: Open Access Greater Impact for Your Research Office of Scholarly Communication and Publishing University Library System University of Pittsburgh](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649cb85503460f9497ddff/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
OA and Its Impact
• Get your work noticed, used, and cited• Make your work available while ideas
are fresh and new• Share your work with colleagues and
students• Publish other scholarly works (books,
articles)• Index in Google Scholar, OAIster, and
other Internet search tools
