OPEN SCIENCE
§ Open science is the movement to make scientific research and its dissemination
accessible to all levels of an inquiring society, amateur or professional. Open
science is transparent and accessible knowledge that is shared and developed
through collaborative networks.
From: Wikipedia
§ Open Access (OA) to the results of scien9fic research means that anyone,
anywhere has online access without financial, legal, or technical barriers.
§ We define open access journals as journals that use a new funding/business
model that does not charge readers or their ins9tu9ons for access.
§ Open Access (in line with the Budapest Open Access Ini9a9ve) can be defined as
the free availability of research and scholarly outputs on the public internet
permiKng users to make any lawful and non-commercial use of the research
material(s) without any legal, technical or financial barriers other than the
acknowledgement of the right of the author(s).
Non OA journals
§ Readers pay to read ar@cles, through a subscrip@on or a one-@me fee. All
ar@cles in the journal are non-OA.
Hybrid journals
§ Authors pay if they want their ar@cle published OA. The percentage of OA
ar@cles in the journal varies per issue
OA journals
§ Authors pay to publish; all ar@cles in the journals are OA. Also knows as Gold
OA.
§ APCs vary by journal, and are much higher for hybrid journals than for OA
journals.
§ With the start of open-access publishing also the predatory publishers came
into existence.
§ Journals that exploit the author-pays model damage scholarly publishing and
promote unethical behaviour by scienIsts, argues Jeffrey Beall. Jeffrey Beall is
Scholarly IniIaIves Librarian at the University of Colorado Denver. His website
"Beals list" started out as a place to find predatory publishers but also caused
discussion.

You can always request a copy directly from the author; often not
the fastest way, but traditionally a well-used route to get pdf’s.
Many researchers have joined the social network for scientists
ResearchGate. And many make their pdf's available inside
ResearchGate for download, or offer the option to request it from
the author.
