OASPA | Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association Links - SHERPA Open Access Basics Glossary of Open Access Abbreviations, Acronyms and Terms - Our comprehensive list, which includes numerous links to the websites of organisations involved in the Open Access movement. Open Access Overview. An introduction to Open Access by Peter Suber, focusing on open access to peer-reviewed research articles and their preprints. A Very Brief Introduction to Open Access. Open Access Archive Briefing Papers. Six things that researchers need to know about open access Another gem from Peter Suber's SPARC Open Access Newsletter. Open Access Journals Open Access journals are the other strand of the move towards open access to research articles. The processes of peer-review and editorial functions are left entirely unchanged: the only difference is the stage at which funds are put into the publication process: and since an entire intermediate "middleman" stage is left out, its cheaper, too.

Open Access Journals | Texas Digital Library What if libraries and universities could bypass the high costs of print journals by providing less costly outlets for scholarly work? What if any faculty member with the willingness to do the work could start up his or her own peer-reviewed journal without prohibitive start-up costs? What if scholarship were available to the many instead of the few? With TDL Electronic Journals, faculty members, libraries, and universities can produce refereed, open-access scholarly journals, ensuring the availability of important scholarship to researchers across the world. TDL Electronic Journals are powered by Open Journal Systems (OJS), an open-source journal management and publication software produced by the Public Knowledge Project. What is a TDL Electronic Journal? Using Open Journal Systems software, faculty at TDL member institutions can set up and publish an online journal (or migrate an existing journal) without any costs for the software or TDL technical assistance.

The Imaginary Journal of Poetic Economics Search Contents of Open Access Repositories Search Repository Contents This service, based on the Google Custom Search engine, lets you search the contents of the repositories listed in OpenDOAR for freely available academic research information. This quality assured approach minimises (but does not eliminate!) spurious or junk results, and leads more directly to useful and relevant information. Full texts are available for most results. This service relies on Google's indexes, which in turn rely on repositories being suitably structured and configured for the Googlebot web crawler.

Scholarly Communication for Librarians This item is in: Chandos > Information management > Publishing Heather Morrison, University of British Columbia, Canada The most satisfying aspect of Scholarly Communication for Librarians is Morrison's evaluation of the roles librarians can play as scholars writing, archivists managing repositories, acqusitions experts purchasing, authorities on publishing advising faculty, reference librarians answering research questions, and advocates of open access pushing for publishing models that support availability of information over profit for private investors. Digital Library Archives One of the book's strongest chapters examines the economics of scholarly journals using the concept of the cost per article of producing articles in various types of journals. The book is easy to read and most importantly provides practical coverage of a topic that is of interest to librarians and other information professionals.
