Why Open Access (OA)?
OA aims to ensure the widest possible dissemination and access to the results of
research
OA provides free, online access to research literature
–
at no costs for readers ‐
apart from internet access
–
offers a wide range of usage rights: read, download, copy, distribute, print, index etc.
–
author/s have to be properly acknowledged and cited, copyright remains with the author/s
3 EU Offices, December 14, 2010
Flavours of Open Access
OA Self‐Archiving
= Deposit of author‘s final manuscripts in digital repositories
OA Publishing
= OA journals offer immediate open access. Sometimes subscription income is replaced by publication charges (using research grants,
institutional funds etc.) Examples:
BioMed
Central‘s journals, New Journal
of Physics, Nucleic Acids Research…
Hybrid OA
Publishing = Publisher charges for OA option within its subscription journals
Example: Springer‘s Open Choice

Benefits for Researchers
Increased visibility of research output
Potentially increased number of citations and impact of publications
Faster access, speeding up research and discovery process
Usage statistics of publications –
downloads, etc.
Up to date bibliographies (CVs) and publication lists
Compliance with funding body OA policies

FP7 Open Access Pilot
Launched in August 2008, will run until the end of FP7 (2013)
Special Clause 39 (SC39), part of the Grant Agreement with the EC, requires
beneficiaries to:
“deposit
peer reviewed
research articles
or final manuscripts resulting from their FP7
projects into an online repository
and make their best efforts to ensure open access
to these articles”
7 EU Offices, December 14, 2010
Special Clause 39 (SC39)OPEN ACCESS (SPECIFIC TO THE THEMATIC AREAS "HEALTH", "ENERGY", "ENVIRONMENT
(INCLUDING CLIMATE CHANGE)", "INFORMATION & COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES"

AS WELL AS TO THE ACTIVITIES "RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURES" (E‐INFRASTRUCTURES), AND
"SCIENCE IN SOCIETY")
In addition
to Article
II.30.4, beneficiaries
shall
deposit
an electronic
copy
of the
published
version
or
the
final manuscript
accepted
for
publication
of a scientific
publication
relating
to foreground
published
before
or
after
the
final report
in an institutional
or
subject‐based
repository
at the

of publication.
Beneficiaries
are
required
to make
their
best efforts
to ensure
that
this
electronic
copy
becomes
freely
and electronically
available
to anyone
through
this
repository:
• immediately
if
the
scientific
publication
is
published
"open
access", i.e. if
an electronic
version
is
also available
free
of charge
via the
publisher, or
• within
X months
of publication.
The
number
X will be
6 months
in the
thematic
areas
"Health", "Energy", "Environment
(including
Climate
Change)", Information & communication
technologies" (Challenge
2) and the
activity
"Research infrastructures" (e‐infrastructures),
and 12 months

thematic
area
"Socio‐

Sciences and the
Humanities" and the
activity
"Science in Society".

ERC OA GuidelinesDecember 2006 ‐
ERC
Scientific Council's Statement on Open Access:
–
fundamental importance of peer‐review
in ensuring the certification and dissemination of high‐quality scientific research
–
the importance of wide access and
efficient dissemination of research results.
December 2007 – ERC Guidelines for Open Access:
–
The ERC requires that all peer‐reviewed publications
from ERC‐ funded research projects be deposited
on publication into an
appropriate research repository where available or an institutional repository, and subsequently made Open Access within 6 months
of publication.
–
The ERC considers essential that primary data
are deposited
to the relevant databases as soon as possible, preferably immediately after
publication and in any case not later than 6 months
after the date of publication.
