Re: US University OA Resolutions Omit Most Important Component
While Stevan's push for 100% coverage of academic materials within OA repositories is on target, I still believe that we need a more reliable and universal infrastructure for decentralized repositories ... one that includes long-term support, which means funding for all authors and organized R&D for enhanced navigation. The present loose federation of existing D-Space (and other) and possible FEDORA-based institutional repository (IR) platforms does not yet offer the scalable design that we require in order to develop integrated tools with universal storage. Perhaps we need to devlop a blend of IRs and discipline-based repositories (a la arXiv) in order to provide platforms and navigation for all users -- not just those in organizations able to run their own IRs? We have the technology, now we need to focus our support on a plan that provides universal storage and access ... with or without the peer review overlay for the present time.

Re: US University OA Resolutions Omit Most Important Component
Dear Stevan, Maybe the problem is reality. Maybe scientists is fighting for their freedom. Maybe scientists feel that Your alternative is taken that freedom from them. Maybe their is something wrong when you make it compulsary. In Russia under the Stalin rule many things were compulsory to force people into the communist heaven. Maybe scientists are sceptical when their employer makes something compulsary. Scientists just trust other scientists. That is the problem with the green way.

"Please Don't Copy-Cat Clone NIH-12 Non-OA Policy!" http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~harnad/Hypermail/Amsci/4307.html But, we must ask ourselves, is this really true, at a time when 100% OA is fully within reach and already long overdue, with research access, usage, impact and progress continuing to be needlessly lost, the loss compounded daily, weekly, monthly, as we continue making false starts that miss the point and keep heading us off in the wrong directions (and mostly no direction at all)? [SNIP] What was missing from both was the core component of a targeted university OA policy, the only component with the capacity to move universities to 100% OA rather than continuing to drift aimlessly, as they do now. Of all the US University Statements and Resolutions, the only one that does contain this all-important component (albeit in a needlessly circuitous and somewhat hobbled form, because the part in square brackets is at least 92% superfluous -- http://romeo.eprints.org/stats.php) is that of the University of Kansas: [SNIP] All the rest of the US university statements and resolutions so far fail to mention self-archiving at all, going on and on instead about {3} the high costs of journals, about {4} the (putative) need to reform copyright and retain ownership, and about {5} the (putative) need to favor "alternative publication venues" (by which is meant OA journals), not only by helping to fund them (i.e., {2} above), but even by more favorably evaluating the work that appears in them; and of course there is much abstract and ideological praise for {6} the abstract principle of free(r) access. [SNIP] The only thing universities need to do in order to make the content that they themselves already provide openly accessible is to keep on publishing it in journals exactly as they always have done, but in addition, to make an online copy of it openly accessible to all would-be users webwide who cannot afford the official published version -- by self-archiving a supplementary draft of every published article in the university's own OA eprint archive. With 92% of journals having already given their green light to university self-archiving it is nothing short of absurd to keep harping on retaining copyright {4} and favoring "alternative venues" {5} instead of simply adopting a policy of self-archiving all university journal article output: http://www.eprints.org/signup/sign.php [SNIP] Let us hope that other universities (US and non-US) as well as research institutions and research funders world-wide will not copy/clone diffuse and directionless statements/resolutions such as Columbia's and Berkeley's but instead include the critical concrete component {1} that will convey us all at long last to the optimal and inevitable (and long overdue) outcome for research, researchers, their institutions, their funders, and their funders' funders, the tax-paying public: 100% OA Stevan Harnad

All funding and support are of course welcome, but please, please let us not lose sight (yet again) of the fact that the problem is not that the cupboards are not *there* but that they are (85%) *bare*! http://archives.eprints.org/eprints.php?action=analysis http://archives.eprints.org/eprints.php?action=analysis http://www.crsc.uqam.ca/lab/chawki/ch.htm That means the immediate problem is *not* an insufficiently reliable and universal infrastructure or insufficiently enhanced navigation. It is insufficient OA content provision (15%). Hence what is needed, urgently, is university *self-archiving policy*, not infrastructural or navigational enhancements: http://www.eprints.org/signup/sign.php http://www.eprints.org/berlin3/outcomes.html > The present loose federation of existing D-Space (and other) and possible > FEDORA-based institutional repository (IR) platforms does not yet offer > the scalable design that we require in order to develop integrated tools > with universal storage.

Trust me: No "blend" of the present network of near-empty cupboards will create or invite OA content. Only an explicit OA content-provision policy, by the content-providing institutions, for their own OA cupboards, will generate that missing OA content. Provide the content and the enhancements will all follow as a matter of course. Keep fussing instead about enhancements, and OA will be delayed yet another needless decade. > We have the technology, now we need to focus our support on a plan that > provides universal storage and access ... with or without the peer review > overlay for the present time.

RE: : US University OA Resolutions Omit Most Important Component
In these discussions about authors doing, or being forced to do, what is 'good for them' we appear to forget that we already force authors to do 'what is good for them'. For example: In return for providing research grants we force researchers to deposit gene sequences, protein sequences, etc. It is not to the benefit of the individual researcher to deposit, they don't volunteer, but we recognise the value of it being done and so insist on it. In doing so we create databases that are of benefit to all researchers. In return for providing research grants we force researchers to write and file end-of-project reports. Again, researchers don't volunteer to write these reports, but we recognise the value of having a reporting step and insist on it. In return for providing (significant) research grants the NIH is now insisting on strategies to make data available. The researchers are not queuing-up to volunteer, but NIH sees it as important and so forces researchers to 'do the right thing'. Open access advocates would argue that in return for research grants funding agencies have the right to 'force' researchers to make a copy of their research papers available through open access. The fact that some may not volunteer to do this no more significant than the fact the some do not volunteer to deposit sequences, write reports, or publicly archive their data. If the funders of research believe it is important then they have a right to 'force' researchers to do something that benefits research by widening access and dissemination of the research they have paid for.

The companies that make the "bad" products (Mcdonalds, etc.) or the people that practice the "bad" behaviors (through higher insurance rates, etc.). OA is hardly "brand new," and lord knows PLOS and others have worked the press very well indeed.

It is certainly not up to librarians to issue edicts to researchers on this matter, but employers and funders do have the right to insist on researchers carrying out a course of action. If we replace the rather emotive word 'force' with 'require' then we already know what the outcome would be. Of the almost 1300 researchers recently polled on this issue, the results are as follows: * 81% would WILLINGLY comply with a requirement from their employer or funder to self-archive their articles * 13% would comply reluctantly * 5% would refuse to comply > Researchers are part of a research community with a very special and > nobel agenda and they act civilized. They do, and they have two other characteristics worth mentioning in this context. Many are still ignorant of open access and its benefits (over 30%, for example, are unaware of self-archiving as a means to provide open access) and they are busy people, for whom the few minutes it takes to self-archive an article may seem a distraction from other work. Just as funders require researchers to take the time to write an end-of-project report, and employers levy an implicit requirement for researchers to publish their results, they can also legitimately require them to spend a few minutes depositing articles in an open access archive. And expect little in the way of dissent, too. Alma Swan Key Perspectives Ltd Truro, UK
