Introduction
WHAT? Repository = digital archive
Similar to ITG Staff Publications database, but full text is free of copyright restrictions
International network of repositories (universities, research institutes…)
WHY? Collect, preserve and disseminate research output
Improve the visibility of the Institute’s scholarly publications Centralize its contents and metadata Self-archive the research output and provide open access to it Preserve digital grey literature
TropMed Central Antwerp: ITM Research Output Accessible to All?ITM Seminar June 10th 2009
Background – SERIALS CRISIS
Authors’ criteria for publishing research results Peer review: quality assurance Publish in and cite from journals with high Impact Factor
(SCI)
Market evolution Monopoly of commercial publishers Increase in volume and number of titles of scientific literature Specialization: new journals High quality journals in demand
TropMed Central Antwerp: ITM Research Output Accessible to All?ITM Seminar June 10th 2009
Background – SERIALS CRISIS
Top journals should be included in library collections Remark 1: median journal price change (2000-2006)*

Background – SERIALS CRISIS
Remark 2 Average annual journal price changes (2000-06) – print subscriptions
Commercial publishers (median journal prices) : 10% U.S. society-published journals (nonprofit): 7.1% Average annual inflation rate (Belgium) for the same period: 2.1%
Different average % change per type of access E.g. U.S. society-published journals (2005-06)
Print only (avg. for 140 journals) 6.9% Print & online combined (avg. for 110 journals): 16.2%
Different tax rates for print and online subscription (Belgium) Print subscriptions: 6% Online subscriptions: 21%

Background – SERIALS CRISIS
OKAY, BUT:
1.Increase of journal subscription prices
2.Library budgets have not kept the same pace over the years, while more and more face budget cuts anno 2009
Access to scientific literature at stake? Hard nuts to crack: no new titles? No online
subscriptions? Cut back subscriptions in exchange for new ones?

Transfer of exploitation rights for electronic publishing
Right to publish
Right to make reproductions
Right to distribute
Exceptions: research, education

© Background – COPYRIGHT TRANSFER
Consequences for authors (individual) Dissemination E-mail to colleagues? Education E-learning environment Research use Personal use Private copy? Future reuse Single or continuous access? Preservation Deposit in a repository? Protection of copyright Plagiarism?
Consequences for libraries (institutional) Dissemination Internal, external (e.g. Docdel)? Access guaranteed? What after end of subscription? Reproduction Photocopying/scanning? Long-term preservation? Self-archiving?
TropMed Central Antwerp: ITM Research Output Accessible to All?ITM Seminar June 10th 2009
Background – OPEN ACCESS AS A SOLUTION?
Open Access
“free availability on the public internet, permitting any users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles”
“give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly acknowledged and cited”
TropMed Central Antwerp: ITM Research Output Accessible to All?ITM Seminar June 10th 2009
Background – OPEN ACCESS AS A SOLUTION?
Open Access Initiative Declarations/statements of principles for institutions, governments
and authors:
Basic idea: no copyright or financial barriers “research, funded by public means, is a public good and the results should therefore be freely accessible to the public”
Endorsed by c. 500 universities, research institutions, government councils, funding agencies, NGO’s, libraries
Budapest (2001) Open Access to peer-reviewed research literature
Bethesda (2003) Open Access publishing
Berlin (2003) Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities
TropMed Central Antwerp: ITM Research Output Accessible to All?ITM Seminar June 10th 2009
Background – OPEN ACCESS AS A SOLUTION?
1. Publish in Open Access Journals – Gold Road
Peer-reviewed © remains with the author Restrictions depend on the author’s / publisher’s preferences
Creative Commons licences ‘Libre’ vs. ‘Gratis’ ‘Pure’ Gold vs. hybrid vs. delayed open access
TropMed Central Antwerp: ITM Research Output Accessible to All?ITM Seminar June 10th 2009
Background – OPEN ACCESS AS A SOLUTION?
1. Publish in Open Access Journals – Gold Road
Peer-reviewed articles deposited in TMCA (2000-May 2009)(Source: DOAJ)
191 articles published in OAJ (av. 10%, 2008: 21,4%)
114 articles published in JIF-OAJ (av. 6%, 2008: 12%)
13% of all journals in which ITM authors have published is an OAJ
136 ITM authors have published in an OAJ
26% of them have published 33-100% of their articles in an OAJ
TropMed Central Antwerp: ITM Research Output Accessible to All?ITM Seminar June 10th 2009
Background – OPEN ACCESS AS A SOLUTION?
2. Self-archive Articles - Green Road1. Publish article in traditional (‘toll-access’) journal
2. Archive the author version in a subject or institutional repository in compliance with publisher’s archiving policy
>90% of journals accept some form of self-archiving
RoMEO COLOR ARCHIVING POLICY
GREEN can archive pre-print and post-print
BLUE can archive post-print (ie final draft post-refereeing)
YELLOW can archive pre-print (ie pre-refereeing)
WHITE archiving not formally supported

Open source software (DSpace, Eprints, Fedora, Open Repository)
“Digital libraries” but with full text linked Include research output (peer-reviewed articles, other
document types), theses, learning objects… Subject-based, institutional (private organizations, academic,
research institutes), OA Journals… Global: >1400 Belgium: 25

2. Self-archive Articles - Green Road
Repositories: can quality be guaranteed?
Funding agencies (NIH, Wellcome Trust, FWO,…) Peer-review is mandatory
Self-archiving only after publication in journal
