Background: Open Access and Scholarly Communication
![Page 4: Emerging Trends and Evolving Issues in Open Access and .../67531/metadc... · •The Open Access movement is transforming scholarly communication •Open Access provision of unrestricted](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050509/5f99ce54cbb78b6084657106/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• In the current global knowledge economy, power and wealth are increasingly measured by one’s ability to access and use information and Knowledge.
- Knowledge divide vs. knowledge equilibrium
• Digital technologies fundamentally change the rules of information dissemination and provide scholars with access to diverse and previously unavailable contents
- While infrastructure development and increased availability of interoperable Open Access content helps to integrate and enhance access to diverse digital resources, they also bring about great challenges for traditional policies, IP and copyright laws, and changing the overall global socio-economic environment in general.
• A goal towards a global:
- Research communication Infrastructure
- Network of Interoperable digital archives and content network framework
- A federated system of institutional, national, and global network of digital archives

• The Open Access movement is transforming scholarly communication
• Open Access provision of unrestricted online access to results/outputs of research & development
• While the notion of Open Access to scholarly information is not new, various factors, including local and national mandates for sharing the products of (funded) research drive scholars to rethink traditional scholarship models.
• There's been some concerns, questions, and misconceptions about various issues, ranging from intellectual property and Copyrights to predator publications and quality issues.

Open Access:A Global Perspective
![Page 8: Emerging Trends and Evolving Issues in Open Access and .../67531/metadc... · •The Open Access movement is transforming scholarly communication •Open Access provision of unrestricted](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050509/5f99ce54cbb78b6084657106/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Open Access: Views from the distance
• Open Access has been around for about 2 decades
• Declarations and statements came from various organizations and societies, and individual countries
• Launching of Open Access Journals (OAJs) and Open Access Repositories (OARs)
• Directory of Open Access Journals and Open Access Repositories

Concerns of Open Access in the developing world
• Plagiarism
• Commitment
• Policy
• Organizational culture
• Information sharing
![Page 12: Emerging Trends and Evolving Issues in Open Access and .../67531/metadc... · •The Open Access movement is transforming scholarly communication •Open Access provision of unrestricted](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050509/5f99ce54cbb78b6084657106/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
HE Institutions:Plagiarism but
not Open Access
![Page 13: Emerging Trends and Evolving Issues in Open Access and .../67531/metadc... · •The Open Access movement is transforming scholarly communication •Open Access provision of unrestricted](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050509/5f99ce54cbb78b6084657106/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Some studies and practice
• Open Access Policy and Commitment toward Open Access are still the issues in some countries—especially in the developing countries.
• Views that OAJs have no value for personal development
• Beliefs among stakeholders that OA will make other institutions better
• Plagiarism issues: Open Access increasing plagiarism vs. Open Access lowering plagiarism
![Page 14: Emerging Trends and Evolving Issues in Open Access and .../67531/metadc... · •The Open Access movement is transforming scholarly communication •Open Access provision of unrestricted](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050509/5f99ce54cbb78b6084657106/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Some points to note:
• A study on Open Access Policy in Kuwait shows that the understanding of OA is still low among stakeholders of HE institutions
• A reputable university in Indonesia is considering the closing of its Open Access Repository after the new library director was appointed and disagreement among professors.
• I experienced a controversial problem when the university president encouraged me to have an Open Access Repository while the vice president discouraged me with the issue
![Page 15: Emerging Trends and Evolving Issues in Open Access and .../67531/metadc... · •The Open Access movement is transforming scholarly communication •Open Access provision of unrestricted](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050509/5f99ce54cbb78b6084657106/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
OA concerns:
• The need to increase the awareness of OA existence
• The role of librarians and other stakeholders to promote OA
• New strategies to build an OA understanding
