ORCID = Open Researcher and Contributor ID
Distribution models for scholarly publishing = Модели распространения научных публикаций
• The traditional model•Gold open-access•Platinum open access•Green open access•Hybrid open access•Delayed open access
Predatory Publishers = "Хищные" (недобросовестные) издательства• Use the gold open-access model (author pays)• Article processing charges (APCs)
• Conflict of interest: more papers accepted = more income• Not all OA journals are bad; not all traditional ones are
good• Monetary transactions from authors to publishers cause
many problems
How predatory publishers operate = Как "хищные" (недобросовестные) издательства действуют
• Experts at manipulative spamming• Target young and
emerging researchers• They mimic legitimate
publishers in many ways
How predatory publishers operate = Как "хищные" (недобросовестные) издательства действуют• They lie; they are counterfeit publishers• They are often one-man operations• Author-oriented vs. reader oriented• Customers include unlucky honest folks and complicit folks• Chiefly in Asia and Africa, but also many in the UK, Ontario, Australia,
and the US• They also operate bogus conferences• Journals with broad coverage
My work with predatory publishers = Моя работа с "хищными" (недобросовестными) издательствами• First became interested in 2009 via spam• Coined term ‘predatory publisher’ in summer, 2010• I author a blog with regular commentary and four lists: • Predatory publishers• Predatory standalone journals• Misleading metrics• Hijacked journals
http://scholarlyoa.com
Publisher classification = Издательская классификация• Based on a published criteria• Show a lack of transparency (hiding information conventionally given
by publishers)• Use of deception• Don’t follow industry standards
Why predatory publishers are problematic = Почему "хищные" издательства являются проблематичными [1]1. They corrupt open access and give it a bad name2. They probably have increased the occurrence of research
misconduct3. They threaten demarcation and the cumulative nature of
research
Why predatory publishers are problematic [2]4. Bogus research affects societal institutions5. They sponsor many low-quality scholarly conferences6. They enable the publishing of junk science7. They don’t back up their content (digital preservation standards)8. Some authors are complicit in the process9. Predatory publishers are polluting taxonomy10. Pharmaceutical entrepreneurs are using predatory publishers
Increased Publication of Pseudo-science= Увеличение числа псевдо-научных публикаций
Fake metrics = Фальшивые критерии оценки научных публикаций
• Fake metrics (or misleading metrics) are numbers that are just “made up” and assigned to journals, etc.• Companies sell these metrics and call them “impact factors”• Publishers use fake metrics on their websites and in their spam email to
make their journals look like real ones and attract more papers• Problem: The real impact factor data is not free
Hijacked journals = “Поддельные” журналы
Hijacked journal Authentic journal
How can we stop predatory publishers? = Как остановить издательства "хищники"?
• Predatory publishers enjoy freedom of the press• Predatory publishers operate internationally• Open access advocates too often turn a blind eye to predatory
publishers• There’s much hubris and bullying in the open-access movement• We need to restore the voice of the “consumer” in scholarly
publishing
Author services companies = Компании, помогающие авторам
Changes in Peer Review = Изменения в рецензировании научных публикаций
• Cascading peer review• Outsourcing / monetization of peer review (by individual authors,
by journals)• Post-publication peer review• Will peer-review become decoupled from the journal submission
process?
Conclusion = Заключение
• There’s no end in sight to the problem of predatory publishers• Despite the OA movement, we’re seeing an increased
commercialization of various scholarly communication components• Scholarly publishing is becoming more author-focused and less-reader
focused• The validation function the subscription model offered is being lost
