[GOAL] Re: {Disarmed} Re: A census of OA in the Netherlands

Dear all,

The post is really very useful and more info in a similar fashion about other
countries should be prepared. Regarding the issue of "carrots and sticks" I
attended the presentation of the Irish national academic repository
(http://rian.ie/) during the past OAI7 conference at Geneve and it was
impressive. This is a good starting model about the added value that a
repository should provide, specially for actual end-users that are the
scientists not the librarians (no puns intended). The interface is very clean,
options for searching and recovering are powerful and best of all, there is a
lot of very valuable figures everywhere. Most of the Irish researchers probably
will deposit because it is a perfect showcase for their full activity results.

I will like to know about other similar initiatives.

      Mandated OA was announced early 2011 for Earsmus University
      Rotterdam. Unfortunately this has had no effect on deposit rates
      whatsoever, it is still one of the lowest deposit rates in Nl.
      Mandates without carrots or sticks are not likely to work, despite
      the Liege success.

       

      BTW this post was partly inspired by questions you asked in Leiden
      back in 2010(?) at the van Raan farewell symposium.

An analysis of OA deposits in Dutch repositories

http://wowter.net/2012/02/10/a-census-of-open-access-repositories-in-the-nether
lands/

 

Deposits rates at Dutch universities vary between 7% and 40% for articles.

Are well in the 80% for PhD-theses.

There remains a lot of work to be done.

 

Suggestion: Mandate deposit. 

 

Mandated deposit rates are 60%+ rising toward 100%.

 

Especially with the right mandate: Immediate-Deposit/Optional-Access
[ID/OA], 

Liege model: deposit is designated as the sole mechanism for submitting 

refereed research for performance review.

 

Research funders can reinforce institutional mandates by mandating deposit
too, 

as a condition of funding.
