Agenda
• Changing landscape of scholarly publishing• Open access – gold and green• Finding open access journals• UC Research Repository• Making data visible• Article impact metrics
Where are you publishing now?
Have you had
something published?
Where did you get it accepted?
How did you find
out where to submit
it?
Changing landscape
Scholarly Publishing
Serials Crisis
Finch report
PLOS / ArXiv
/Institutional repositories
Funders mandates
Benefits of Open Access
• Satisfies the requirements of research funders requiring open access publication, such as Marsden, UK Research Councils, the NIH, Wellcome Trust and many others - see SHERPA/JULIET. NZ National Science Challenges also require open data.
• Bigger impact - potential for greatly increased dissemination and citation advantage
• Ameliorates the effects of the serials crisis?• More equitable impact – access is for all, not just those who
can afford journal subscriptions.• Supports technology transfer of UC research to the community
and to business
Citation advantage of OASize of OA citation advantage when found (and where explicitly stated by discipline)
% increase in citations with Open Access
Physics/astronomy 170 to 580
Mathematics 35 to 91
Biology -5 to 36
Electrical engineering 51
Computer science 157
Political science 86
Philosophy 45
Medicine 300 to 450
Communications studies (IT) 200

newsletters, and annuals, as well as discontinued publications. It also contains complete names and addresses of journal publishers.

Indexing databases
Demonstration
• Chemistry
Green route: UC Research Repository

International mandates
• ROARMAP - list of universities with an institutional mandate• 222 universities internationally have institutional mandates• (Including: Imperial College, Edinburgh, Nottingham, MIT, QUT, Princeton, Trinity
College Dublin, Waikato...)
Mandatory deposit of research
Increase deposit rates
• Opt out rather than opt in to the UC Research Repository.
• ~12% of PBRF eligible items are currently deposited.
Already exists for theses
• Including embargos for sensitive research
Commitment to open access
• Ensures publicly funded research becomes publically available• Funders (Marsden, National Health and Medical Research Council,
Australian Research Council) increasingly require OA.• OA material more widely cited
