and preserving scientific knowledgeand preserving scientific knowledge

network of complex relationships between a number of players - authors, editors, publishers, distributors, librarians and most importantly consumers of scholarly information

Scholarly Communication in Crisis

• Increasing control of scholarly journals industry by the commercials firms • High cost of scholarly journals verses low library budget• Shift from print to electronic form: the legal framework • Battle of ownership verses access• Advent of open access publishing is a direct threat to commercial publishers.• Growing awareness of utilization of money generated from taxpayers

Traditional & Open access models

What is "Open Access"

• According to"Budapest Open Access Initiative" (BOAI) – It’s free availability on the public internet, permitting any

users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself. The only constraint on reproduction and distribution, and the only role for copyright in this domain, should be to give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly acknowledged and cited

(http: //www.soros.org/openaccess/read.shtml).

BOAI recommend two complementary strategies for authors to participate in open access these are: Open Access Journals (Golden Road) Self-Archiving of E-Prints (Green Road)

SELF-ARCHIVING OF E-PRINTS

"Self-archiving" refers to making "e-prints" available on the Web. An e-print is either a digital preprint or a postprint.

E-PRINTS ARE TYPICALLY MADE AVAILABLE IN ONE OF FOUR PRIMARY WAYS:

author's personal website; a disciplinary archive that includes works by

authors worldwide about one or more subjects; an institutional e-print archive that includes e-

prints by authors in a single academic unit, such as a department, or the entire institution; or

an institutional repository that includes diverse types of digital works (e.g., data sets, electronic theses and dissertations, presentations, and technical reports), including e-prints, by authors at a single institution.

DEFINITION OF IR

An institutional repository is a digital archive of the intellectual product created by the faculty, research staff, and students of an institution and accessible to end users both within and outside of the institution, with few if any barriers to access.

TO THE INSTITUTION, AN IR OFFERS Increasing visibility and prestige Centralisation and storage of all types of

institutional output Support for learning and teaching Standardisation of institutional records Leverage of existing systems Possible long term cost savings

BENEFITS TO AUTHORS Increased dissemination and impact Storage and access to a wide range of

materials Feedback and commentary Provision of added value services

FOR SOCIETY

Provide access to the world’s research Ensures long-term preservation of institutes’

academic output
