Libraries are definitely places where awareness occurs. They are the sentinels.
However, they don't have enough power (generally) to impose Open Access as a
permanent reflex with researchers.

Dear Bjoern, Eric and Heather,
I fully agree that it is good practice to duplicate deposits. Actually, there
is nothing wrong with that.
And on these lines, I would recommend public repositories. I feel much less at

"Liège does not mandate anything, so far as I know; it only looks into the

performance or respond to requests for promotions or grant submissions." (JC.

Il agree, Richard, but we are not really looking for accuracy here, we are

Eric,
What is the significance of 0.8% (83/10,429) ?
What useful metrics can you draw from that ?
Why would Springer deserve a kudo ? Just for "transparency"?
What's new if it becomes clear that double-dipping means taking underfunded
academic institutions for a ride ?
Greetings,

When I want to drive on a public road, whether it is closed or temporarily

Embargo is antinomic to open.

Éric,
Perfect response. I couldn't agree more.
In addition, there is a difference between Jeffrey's and Jean-Claude's
exhortations: one proposes to ban journals (hence articles) on the basis of a
risk of poor quality and the other suggests to ban journals (hence articles) on
the basis of access

1. Considering how low the rate of compliance is in the Green OA landscape, it
