DESCRIPTION
Keynote presentation at the 3º Simpósio Brasileiro de Comunicação Científica: Perspectivas em Acesso Aberto, http://www.sbcc.ufsc.br 05 e 06 de junho de 2012, Florianópolis (SC) – Brasil. 2012 marks the tenth anniversary of the Budapest Open Access Initiative, a declaration that provided a formal definition of Open Access (OA) and a set of strategies for archiving OA. This talk begins with a review of the major milestones of achievement over the last decade, both globally and with specific attention to Brazil and Latin America, followed by identification of key areas of research communication that remained to be improved. These areas include infrastructural development for e-research, more diverse and transparent metrics for evaluating scholarship, funding and institutional policy alignment, and new forms of scholarly practices and representation. Examples from these areas will be highlighted, with emphasis on areas of collaboration between information scientists and scholars from various fields.TRANSCRIPT

Key Messages
• Open Access as a philosophical principle and a set of practical tools
• “Journal” no longer serves the needs of networked scholarship• From “Wealth of Nations” to “Wealth of Networks”• Need to rethink measurements of “impact” and values,
especially for research relevant to development• Innovations are happening in the “peripheries” but there are
gatekeepers and social barriers• Aligning funding and reward policies with new scholarly
practices and inclusive metrics

“By "open access" to this literature, we mean its 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.”BOAI 2002 http://www.soros.org/openaccess/read

OA does not only remove or reduce price barriers for researchers in developing countries, it offers a more equitable model for the exchange of knowledge as a global public good (the philosophical dimension)

• UNESCO published an OA Policy Guidelines in March 2012
• UK, EU, and the USA are all developing major funding policies on OA

Key Findings
1. There is no evidence of any harm to publishers as a result of embargoed green OA2. There is evidence of increased total usage through green OA 3. There is evidence that green OA through the PEER project actually drives usage at the publisher site.David Prosser, May 29, 2012

Institutional Design
Sustainability as a set of institutional structures and processes that build and protect the knowledge commons (Mook and Sumner 2010)

Broadening the definition of “prestige”, “impact”, “value” and “capital”
Business value monetary return, financial capital, efficiency, competiveness
Scholarly value Reputation and citation; trust; symbolic capital
Institutional value Public mission, community outreach, intellectual capital
Social value Equity, participation, inclusion, diversity, social capital
Political value Evidence based policy, transparency, accountability, civic capital

Conclusions
• Leverage the various Open movement • Align the values of research with appropriate incentives and
recognition• Also need to align policies that are emerging from the top
with initiatives are rising from the bottom• Support for metadata standards and open licences• Recognition of non-proprietary and collaborative research
output from networked scholarship• Reward dissemination of research findings through multiple
means – beyond the journal• Move Prestige to Open Access
