Open Access Landscape
• Open Access– Open Access Journals– Open Access Repositories
• Data Providers and Service Providers
• Repository networks
• Funders mandates
• Publisher activities
• Less of a niche activity
![Page 7: Objects in Motion The Institutional Repositories Landscape](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060107/55495cf2b4c905fc4e8b5861/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
http://www.sherpa.ac.uk
Traditional Publication
• Personal academic effort lost– No tangible reward for research publication– Loss of IPR to institution through copyright gifting
• Publicly funded research not publicly accessible– Demands for accountability for public investment
• Potential readership limited by economics– Journal prices rise as budgets fall– Research becomes inaccessible
• Untimely communication– Publishing & indexing timescales
• Authors are willing to use repositories– 79% would deposit willingly if required to do so

Personal professional standingDepartmental Institutional significance & funding opportunities
Preservation & long term accessibilityEase of access Potential for value added services
– Personalised publications lists, hit rates & citation analysis
Plagiarism risk

Broader Benefits• Institution
– Facilitates use & re-use of information assets– Raises profile and prestige of institution– Potential long-term cost savings
• Research community– Frees up the communication process– Avoids unnecessary duplication
• Society benefits– Publicly-funded research publicly available– Aids in public understanding of research

Institutional Repositories
• Digital collections that preserve and provide access to the intellectual output of an institution.– Raym Crow The case for institutional repositories: a
SPARC position paper. 2002
• Contents freely available to all– No subscription or restrictions to readership
• Encourage wider use of open access information assets
• May contain a variety of digital objects – e-prints, theses, e-learning objects, datasets etc

Why Institutional?
• The OAI-PMH allows a single gateway to search and access many repositories– Subject-based portals or views– Subject-based classification and search– Institutional storage and support
• Practical reasons– Use institutional infrastructure– Integration into work-flows and systems – Support is close to academic users and contributors– Longevity concerns over some SRs

Practical Concerns
• Author concerns– What about quality assurance & peer review?– If its freely available, what about plagiarism?– What about commercially or sensitivity material?– Subject base more natural? – Threat to journals?
• Repository administrator concerns– IPR & Copyright– Technical & software issues– Policies & workflow– Isolation & support

In 10 Years…?
• Who knows? But whatever happens -– If definitive versions are of value to research work
(and they are) – If journals are of value to research work (and they
are) – If publishers are of value to research work (and they
are) – If learned societies are of value to research work (and
they are) – If repositories of work are of value to research work
(and they are) • Then they will be used
