Abstract In 2012, the Open Access Movement to scientific information celebrated ten years of existence. The period, which represents the first stage of consolidation of the movement, has been analyzed to allow the planning of new phases. With the purpose of providing tools and contributing to these discussions, the article addresses the historical aspects of the international and regional constitution of Open Access Movement. The approach was developed from a descriptive temporal narrative of the main events and initiatives identified in the scientific literature on the subject. The elements discussed in the present study work were organized under two parameters. The first refers to a temporal perspective, defined from the publication of Budapest Open Access Initiative. The second is related to brief discussion of the participation of Latin America. As result, we present a timeline of open access in the world and in Latin America, showing the main aspects covered in the study. The goal of the study is achieved by the proposed systematization as we analyze the open access initiatives in Latin America and establish how they influenced and were influenced by other regions of the world.

The present paper investigated a developed method for the quantitative evaluation of involvement of countries in the international open access movement. It identified eight country open access indices which were initially connected with open access initiatives and instruments, their weighing, normalization and aggregation in a weighted average value. In a second more strict approximation, the number of indices was reduced up to six for the account of discarding duplicated data in ROAR and Open DOAR. Budapest initiative and Berlin declaration were considered as ОА-initiatives; and data of the international registers, DOAJ, SHERPA/RoMEO, ROAR MAP and the Webometrics ОА-repositories ranking, was considered as the tools. The calculation was done on the basis of a developed method for 133 countries.

<strong>German Abstract</strong> Die Erklärungen und Positionierungen zu Open Access anfangs der 2000er Jahre waren von Umbruchstimmung, Euphorie und Idealismus getragen, eine Revolution des wissenschaftlichen Publizierens wurde vielfach vorhergesagt. Die Erwartungen an Open Access lagen auf der Hand und waren umrissen: Wissenschaftlern war an rascher Verbreitung ihrer eigenen Texte gelegen sowie an der Verfügbarkeit der Texte ihrer Kollegen, Bibliothekaren an einer Abhilfe für stark steigende Journalpreise, den Wissenschaftseinrichtungen an effizienter und freier Verbreitung ihrer Inhalte. Einzig die Position der kommerziellen Wissenschaftsverlage zu Open Access war überwiegend zögerlich bis ablehnend. Der Artikel versucht sich 15 Jahre nach dem Treffen der Budapest Open Access Initiative 2001 an einer Bilanz zum Open Access. 2016 muss festgehalten werden, dass die von den maßgeblichen Open-Access-Advokaten früherer Tage erhoffte Revolution wohl ausbleiben wird. Vielmehr scheint aktuell die Entwicklung des Open Access weitgehend von den vormals in Open-Access-Szenarien kaum erwähnten kommerziellen Verlagen angetrieben. Zwar findet sich auch Open Access in wissenschaftlicher Selbstverwaltung, dennoch bleiben die Akteure im wissenschaftlichen Publizieren bislang die gleichen wie 2001 und die schon damals bekannten Konzentrationseffekte am Publikationsmarkt setzen sich fort. <strong>English Abstract</strong> The declaration and positions on Open Access in the early 2000s spread a mood of upheaval, euphoria, and idealism, a revolution of scientific publishing was regularly predicted. The expectations for Open Access were obvious and clear: scientists wanted to share their own articles immediately with other scientist (and they also wanted to have easy full text access to the texts of their colleagues), librarians needed a remedy for exploding journal prices, the scientific institutions wanted funded research to be efficiently and freely disseminated. Only the position of the commercial publishers to Open Access was predominantly hesitant or even disapproving. This contribution attempts to draw a balance on Open Access 15 years after the Budapest Open Access Initiative meeting in 2001. 2016 it must be noted that the hopes of Open Access advocates for a revolution will be disappointed. On the contrary, today the development of Open Access seems to be largely driven by the commercial publishers, which were barely mentioned in the early Open Access scenarios. Although there non-commercial Open Access in scientific self-administration exists, today the actors in scientific publishing are still the same as in 2001, and the already known concentration effects on the publishing market continue. <strong>French Abstract</strong> Les déclarations et les positions sur l'Open Access du début des années 2000 étaient portées par l'esprit de bouleversement, l'euphorie et l'idéalisme : on prédisait souvent une révolution dans le domaine de l'édition scientifique. Les attentes à l’égard de l'Open Access étaient évidentes : les scientifiques étaient intéressés par la diffusion rapide de leurs propres textes et par l’accès aux textes de leurs collègues, les bibliothécaires par une possibilité de contourner la hausse rapide des prix des périodiques, les institutions scientifiques par une diffusion efficace et rapide de leurs contenus. Seule la position de la plupart des éditeurs scientifiques commerciaux était hésitante, voire hostile. L'article tente de tirer un bilan de l’Open Access, 15 ans après la réunion de l'Open Access Initiative de Budapest de 2001. En 2016 nous devons constater que la révolution espérée par les principaux avocats des premiers jours de l’Open Access n’aura probablement pas lieu. Au contraire, aujourd’hui, l’Open Access semble largement poussé par les éditeurs commerciaux qui, auparavant, étaient à peine mentionnés dans les scénarios de l'Open Access. Bien qu’on trouve aussi l’Open Access sous gestion scientifique autonome, les acteurs de l'édition scientifique restent les mêmes qu'en 2001 et les phénomènes de concentration sur le marché de la publication se poursuivent.

Acceso abierto a la ciencia: Desafíos y oportunidades para Latinoamérica Al hablar de acceso abierto a las publicaciones científicas, me gusta recordar la definición dada en la Declaración de Acceso Abierto de Budapest (2002): “Significa el hecho donde cualquier individuo interesado en esta literatura pueda leer, descargar, copiar, distribuir, imprimir, buscar o enlazar textos completos de los artículos científicos y usarlos con cualquier propósito legítimo, de manera libre y abierta; la única restricción del acceso abierto está en otorgarles a los autores el respeto a la integridad de su trabajo y el derecho a ser adecuadamente reconocidos y citados”. Me parece una definición realmente completa y brillante, que además nos invita a soñar con un mundo en el que el conocimiento científico es colaborativo, compartido y permita su aplicación tanto local como regionalmente.

Procurar una ciencia abierta es objetivo explícito formal desde la Budapest Open Access Initiative, una propuesta de Open Society Foundation, fundada por Soros (empresario y filántropo) en 2001. Open Society es la 6ª fundación privada de carácter filantrópico que más ha contribuido al desarrollo en 2021 (OCDE, 2022). Dos décadas después, la UNESCO realizó una serie de Recomendaciones sobre Ciencia Abierta (2021), un concepto que aglutina distintas iniciativas encaminadas a hacer del conocimiento científico algo accesible, disponible y reutilizable para toda la comunidad científica y la ciudadanía, que logre multiplicar las colaboraciones entre el personal investigador y la transferencia efectiva, en todas sus versiones: universidad-universidad/centros de investigación; universidad-administración pública; universidad-empresa y universidad-sociedad.

Full textAbstract:
Open access is a subfield of open science that began on December 1, 2001 with the Budapest Open Access Initiative and aims to create a virtuous loop in the academic ecosystem. Open access is distinguished by the fact that information producers become users, and users (researchers) become producers again. Authors of scholarly article do not seek profit from publishing, but research results are extensively disseminated, and research accomplishments are immediately shared and generally recognized. Open access can help tackle three types of problems: economic obstacles, legal barriers, and technical barriers. The growing burden of paper publication fees, especially article processing charge, on individual researchers is a representative problem in the academic ecosystem that comes along with open access. One of the primary concerns with open access is the expert review system, which is thought to have a significant impact on the future of the academic journal ecosystem as well as the type of open access. In addition to the usual closed expert review methods used by many academic publications, such as single-blind review, double- blind review, and triple-blind review, expert review also includes open expert review and transparent expert review. The planned improvements in open access and expert review are expected to have a considerable influence on the academic ecosystem.

It is widely recognised nowadays that there is no single, accepted, unified definition of Open Science, which motivates our proposal of an Open Science definition as a political and legal framework where research outputs are shared and disseminated in order to be rendered visible, accessible, reusable is developed, standing over the concepts enhanced by the Budapest Open Science Initiative (BOAI), and by the Free/Open Source Software (FOSS) and Open data movements. We elaborate this proposal through a detailed analysis of some selected EC policies and laws as well as of the function of research evaluation practices. The legal aspects considered in our examination include, in particular, the study of the role of licenses in the context of the dissemination of research outputs.

The open access initiative showed higher education institutions the way to create electronic archives of scholars’ publications, which reveals the scientific potential of higher education and characterizes the structure and content of educational process. The article briefly traces the prerequisites for the emergence of the open access movement and the process of discussion of open access conditions, principles and possibilities by the international community. A list of documents regulating open access and outlining initiatives is given. The main trends of the open access initiative, highlighted in principal international acts, are briefly defined: “Budapest Open Access Initiative” (2002, 2012, 2022), Bethesda Statement on Open Access Publishing (2003), Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities (2003), Scottish Open Access Declaration (2004) and a number of others. Within the framework of this global project, the functioning of the Institutional Repository of Odesa I. I. Mechnikov National University is considered. The organization, maintenance and filling of the University Repository is under the responsibility of the University Scientific Library. The functioning of the University Repository is conducted by the Regulations on the Electronic archive-repository of Odesa I. I. Mechnikov National University. The article defines the Repository functions, tasks and purpose. In addition, technical characteristics are indicated and the software (DSpace) chosen to create the University Repository, which turned out to be the most effective for the implementation of the tasks, is described. It is detailed in which funds and sub-funds the content of the Repository is divided and what content, scientific and educational load each of them has. Attention is paid to the process of content filling: sources, loading mechanism, growth over the years. The cases involving the placement of academic texts and other documents in the archive are revealed; types of documents making up its content are also indicated. Search engines the Odesa National University Repository is indexed by are as well specified. The authors emphasize the role of the interaction of the Scientific Library with University staff for the effective functioning of the Repository and its filling, as well as for popularization of the University academic achievements and the increase in the citation level of University scholars. The activities of the University Scientific Library staff engaged in the Repository functioning are aimed at ensuring free, reliable and open access to scientific and educational publications.

(1) Background: The 2002 Budapest Open Access Initiative recommended the self-archiving of scientific articles in open repositories, which has been described as the “green road” to open access. Twenty years later, only one part of the researchers deposits their publications in open repositories; moreover, one part of the repositories’ content is not based on self-archived deposits but on mediated nonfaculty contributions. The purpose of the paper is to provide more empirical evidence on this situation and to assess the impact on the future of the green road. (2) Methods: We analyzed the contributions to the French national HAL repository from more than 1000 laboratories affiliated with the ten most important French research universities, with a focus on 2020, representing 14,023 contributor accounts and 164,070 deposits. (3) Results: We identified seven different types of contributor accounts, including deposits from nonfaculty staff and import flows from other platforms. Mediated nonfaculty contributions (deposits by libraries, import of bibliographic records, migration from other platforms, etc.) account for at least 48% of the 2020 deposits. We also identified differences between institutions and disciplines. (4) Conclusions: Our empirical results reveal a transformation of open repositories from self-archiving and direct scientific communication towards research information management. Repositories like HAL are somewhere in the middle of the process. The paper describes data quality as the main issue and major challenge of this transformation.

Open Access to scientific information, transparency of research processes and data is one of the most important conditions for the progress of science and scientific communication, the basis of international collaboration of researchers globally. The COVID-19 global pandemic has once again highlighted the need for open, efficient and equal access to scientific information for researchers, regardless of geographical, gender or any other constraints, promoting the exchange of scientific knowledge and data, scientific cooperation and scientific decision-making, knowledge and open data. The Internet has radically changed scientific communication, particularly on the model of peer-reviewed scientific journals and the way readers find and access the scientific information. Digital access is now the norm, thanks to the Open Access model. Although 20 years have passed since the announcement of the Budapest Open Access Initiative, and despite many achievements and advantages, there are still obstacles to the implementation of this model, there is some resistance from commercial publishers and other providers, and discussions continue in the academia world. The Open Access model is already supported by various strategies, policies, platforms, applications but is not yet established. Various business models for scientific journals are still being tested, a culture of preprints is being formed, and discussions are underway on the ethics of scientific publications, intellectual property, the need to finance the dissemination of research results, and so on. Various platforms and applications are being developed to help researchers “discover” research results. Nevertheless, this is not enough: it is important to “discover” not only the results but also the research data, allowing them be used for further research in the global world. Thus, the concepts and practices of Open Science, Open Data, development of research infrastructures, etc., are developing quite rapidly. The article considers the main stages of this 20-year path and outlines the main components and trends of the current stage. Emphasis is placed on the need to form a culture of Open Science and create incentives for its implementation, promoting innovative methods of Open Science at different stages of the scientific process, the needs of European integration of Ukrainian e-infrastructure development, the need for socio-cultural and technological change. The main international and domestic practices and projects in Open Access and Open Science, particularly the National Repository of Academic Texts and the National Plan of Open Science draft, are considered. The role of libraries and librarians in implementing the principles of Open Access and Open Science is emphasized.

ZusammenfassungDie Initiative, wissenschaftliche Publikationen, deren Entstehung in Universitäten und Forschungsinstituten zumeist von der öffentlichen Hand finanziert wird, der Öffentlichkeit auch entgeltfrei zugänglich zu machen, hat ein breites Echo gefunden. Angestoßen von der Budapester und der Berliner Erklärung (2002 und 2003) hat sie zum Aufbau einer leistungsfähigen Infrastruktur zwecks Erfassung, Distribution und Archivierung dieser Arbeiten geführt. Die damit verbundene Institutionalisierung wurde im Lauf der Zeit allerdings erfolgreicher als der Aufruf zur Mitbeteiligung an die „scientific community“, die Verwaltung ihrer Ergebnisse selbst in die Hand zu nehmen. Die Hauptakteure sind nun Bibliotheken, Hochschulleitungen und Fördereinrichtungen. Ein Grund für diesen, die anfänglichen Betreiber der Initiative enttäuschenden, Umstand liegt in ihrem Ansatz selbst. Er übergeht, wie erst hinterher auffällt, die bestehende sozio-ökonomische Infrastruktur des Verlagswesens und die mit ihm gekoppelten Interessen der Wissenschaftlerinnen. In der Folge hat der Impuls zwar neue Verhältnisse geschaffen, aber paradoxer Weise zugunsten der wissenschaftlichen Großverlage, gegen die er ursprünglich gerichtet war.

Knowledge builds on itself. Scientific progress is achieved through piecewise advances, and is based on the enlightenment of prior evidence and discoveries. Accessing prior information has been a tremendously complex venture for centuries, and restricted to the privileged few. Technological progress and namely, the advent of Internet have opened a world of possibilities, including the instant sharing and diffusion of information. Reaping the full benefits of technological advances has however been prevented by the prerogatives of the publishing industry, which have been increasingly challenged over the last two decades. Major historical milestones include the creation of ArXiv.org, an online repository of electronic preprints in 1991; the launch of SciELO in Brazil in 1997 and its extension to 14 countries; the foundation of PLOS by the Public Library of Science, established as an alternative to traditional publishing and nowadays known as PLOS ONE, which is by far the world’s largest series of journals with over 30,000 papers published in 2015; the Budapest Declaration on Open Access in 2002; the campaign Access2Research and the US Fair Access to Science and Technology Research Act, a foundational piece in the establishment of Open Access in the USA; and the initiative of the European Commission to require all research publications funded under Horizon2020 to be openly accessible, free of charge. All these initiatives converged towards the same aim: fostering free and unrestricted access to publications, so as to ensure the widespread and rapid diffusion of research findings within, across and outside scientific communities.

The spirit and philosophy of Open Access are in sync with FAIFE owing to its visible role in sharing intellectual freedom for building information democracy. But with the exponential increase of cost of scholarly research publication and capture of a huge portion of publication industry by for-profit publishers create a void between the research and researcher, information and seeker, educator and learner, query and the solutions. This paper illustrates the hidden cause of this crisis in scholarly communication and gives a brief understanding of total open access movement, from past initiative to future plans. Additionally, this paper thoroughly pointed out the tools and platforms which can be used by educators and researchers to promote this open access movement with great success. The paper reflects the value of open access movement in the way to eliminate the communication gap in terms of scholarly research work.

This study diachronically investigates the trend of the “open access” in the Web of Science (WoS) category of “communication.” To evaluate the trend, data were collected from 184 categories of WoS from 1980 to 2017. A total of 87,997,893 documents were obtained, of which 95,304 (0.10%) were in the category of “communication.” In average, 4.24% of the documents in all 184 categories were open access. While in communication, it was 3.29%, which ranked communication 116 out of 184. An Open Access Index (OAI) was developed to predict the trend of open access in communication. Based on the OAI, communication needs 77 years to fully reach open access, which undeniably can be considered as “crisis in scientific publishing” in this field. Given this stunning information, it is the time for a global call for “open access” by communication scholars across the world. Future research should investigate whether the current business models of publications in communication scholarships are encouraging open access or pose unnecessary restrictions on knowledge development.

<strong>Abstract:</strong> The topic of this study is driven by the need to reconsider concepts, norms and tools in the field of academic authorship protection, which, in the era of open science and open access, would allow not only to introduce restrictive measures, but also to maintain a balance between the interests of copyright holders and users and provide authors with a wider range of opportunities to research, publish and disseminate the results of their scientific works. Changes in the nature and essence of modern science, pace of its development, content of new scientific knowledge and forms of protection of academic authorship are influenced by both external and internal factors. It has been established that external (extra-academic or extra-scientific) socio-cultural and economic factors in the development of science are not constant, but are always associated with the progress of society. At the present stage, these factors primarily reflect the impact of such processes as globalization, internationalization, integration, technologization and digital transformation. The main trends in the development of science also arise under the influence of internal (intra-academic or intra-scientific) intellectual factors that contribute to the emergence of original ideas, motivate individual scientists to create new theoretical knowledge and practice-oriented innovations, encourage them to seek adaptive channels that allow them to communicate and disseminate the results of their research, thus realizing the basic ideals of scientific cognition. Together, these external and internal factors are generating an acute social demand for organizational and financial models, methods and technologies, as well as ethical standards and legal means to protect academic authorship that did not exist before. We conducted our study in light of the evolving paradigm of "Open Science" with all its attributes (open access, transparency, inclusion, etc.) aimed at popularization, openness, accessibility and benefits of academic/scientific research (e.g., data collection, data analysis, variables, samples, software, publications, dissemination of findings, etc.) to all members of society, whether amateur or professional. The UNESCO recommendations, enshrined in 2021, articulated the key values and guiding principles of "Open Science", namely open scientific knowledge, open scientific infrastructure, open scientific communication, open collaboration between scientists and those outside the academic community, open dialog with different knowledge systems, etc. Studying the materials presented by UNESCO and other earlier documents proclaiming and even promoting the principles of open access to academic and scientific journals and literature (e.g., Budapest Open Access Initiative, 2002; Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities, 2003, etc.), we came to conclusion that advancement of the best ideas of open science in Russian society is impossible without certain educational work with university teachers, scientists and persons outside the academic community, as well as without legal support and reconsideration of approaches to protection of the rights of authors. The purpose of this article is to clarify the conceptual apparatus of "Open Science"; reveal the features of "Open Science", its principles and attributes; identify external and internal factors influencing modern science and establish directions for its development; systematize the forms of possible violations of the rights of authors (e.g., unfair borrowings, academic fraud, plagiarism, etc.) and ways to protect academic authorship from the point of view of legal regulation, possibilities of the Creative Commons open license and in the context of the development of information and digital technologies that provide easy access to the network and Internet resources. This article might be of interest to university teachers, educators, methodologists and researchers.

O Open-Access ou Acesso Aberto de publicações científicas tem sido reconhecido como uma agenda implícita por muitos movimentos, segmentos, órgãos, instituições, e outros setores nacionais e internacionais, relacionados à pesquisa, à produção de conhecimento e às publicações. Importante observar que existem muitos meios de publicar um conteúdo acadêmico, contudo, o artigo científico segue sendo considerado, para a maioria das áreas do conhecimento, o principal meio de divulgação científica pois a avaliação realizada por pares garante maior qualidade a publicação.A partir dos anos 2000 os custos elevados para a produção e manutenção de periódicos passaram a ser uma preocupação cada vez mais crescente dos órgãos envolvidos com a publicação de periódicos científicos. O programa SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online) surgiu em 1998 como uma solução para tornar o conhecimento acessível a todos, principalmente aqueles produtos oriundos de verba pública. Já considerando o nível nacional tivemos a implementação do Portal de Periódicos da CAPES, no ano 2000, proporcionando aos estudantes de instituições de todo o país o acesso direto aos melhores “journals” de forma a garantir a melhoria da produção científica nacional. É fácil identificar as revistas que possuem acesso livre no Portal da CAPES: ao lado do título tem a imagem oficial do Open-Access que é um cadeado aberto.Em 2001, a nível mundial, ocorreu um importante evento: o Budapest Open Archives Initiative momento no qual foram definidas duas iniciativas de Open-Access. A chamada via verde (Green Road) que considera o trabalho do autor como auto-arquivado, ou seja, o próprio autor pode depositar o seu trabalho em site próprio ou através de outros canais de comunicação e como ocorre atualmente em muitos repositórios institucionais. E a via dourada (Gold Road) na qual o documento é disponibilizado pelos editores, a exemplo da iniciativa do programa SciELO. Atualmente o SciELO é considerado o maior provedor de periódicos indexados pelo DOAJ (Diretório de Periódicos de Acesso Aberto).Nos Estados Unidos já foi declarado que toda pesquisa financiada pelo governo deverá ter os seus resultados de pesquisa publicados em Open-Acess. E na Europa há um projeto que prevê que até 2020 todos os resultados de pesquisas financiadas pela União Europeia estejam disponibilizada da mesma forma. A Espanha, por exemplo, já exigiu de suas principais universidades a criação de repositórios institucionais e o depósito dos trabalhos científicos de todos os seus pesquisadores. As revistas científicas que disponibilizam livremente os artigos publicados fazem parte do movimento Open-Access, e nesse contexto também nasceu a Revista Eletrônica Científica da Uergs (RevUergs). Além de disponibilizar os artigos em acesso aberto possuímos a preocupação de oferecer um processo de revisão por pares duplo cego (double blind peer review), que prima pela qualificação do referido periódico por meio de indexação e divulgação, consoante com as palavras de uma das Editoras Chefe, Erli Schneider Costa (2016, p.3): A cada novo número esperamos oferecer aos nossos leitores mais artigos de qualidade bem como dar oportunidades aos autores de publicarem em um veículo sério e ético, cujas diretrizes são claramente definidas. Para tanto estamos realizando a inclusão da REV-UERGS em bases de dados nacionais e internacionais de forma a divulgar os artigos publicados. Atualmente a RevUergs é indexada em algumas bases e todos os artigos publicados recebem o registro de DOI (Digital object identifier) que é considerado um registro padrão para identificação de documentos na internet. Existem estudos que comprovam o impacto positivo do Open-Access (PACKER et al., 2014) e percebido por meio do número crescente de acessos e downloads dos artigos, bem como da ampliação das citações. Também há estudos estatísticos de usos em repositórios institucionais, a exemplo do Repositório Digital da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), é possível verificar os acessos e os downloads do documento no link Estatísticas, acessível a todosAssim sendo podemos afirmar que, com base nos dados sobre o aumento de visibilidade dos artigos científicos se comprova que um dos maiores benefícios do Open-Access para o conhecimento é a democratização da informação e a ampliação do poder de colaboração entre os pesquisadores.

O movimento do Acesso Aberto (AA) promove globalmente o livre acesso às publicações científicas, apoiando-se em declarações como a Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI) e infraestruturas como o OAI-PMH. O Brasil lidera a adoção da estratégia da BOAI ao desenvolver periódicos científicos no modelo Diamante, que garante acesso gratuito para autores e leitores e se mostra eficaz ao longo dos anos. O Instituto Brasileiro de Informação em Ciência e Tecnologia (IBICT) fomenta a implementação de repositórios digitais, mas o cenário nacional ainda exige mais estudos sobre seu desenvolvimento. Esta pesquisa analisa repositórios institucionais para verificar se cumprem seu papel na promoção do Acesso Aberto Verde, conforme propõe a BOAI. A pesquisa examina a produção científica depositada no Repositório Institucional da Universidade Federal Fluminense (RiUFF), focando nos artigos de periódicos. O estudo segue quatro etapas: levantamento, análise, verificação e classificação dos artigos, conforme o tipo de Acesso Aberto (Verde, Diamante e Híbrido). Os resultados mostram que a maioria dos artigos no RiUFF pertence ao modelo Diamante, especialmente nas áreas de Ciências Sociais, Humanas e Letras, enquanto outras áreas apresentam menor adesão. Conclui-se que a participação do RiUFF no Acesso Aberto Verde ainda é limitada e sugere maior conscientização e alinhamento às práticas da BOAI.

La Declaración de Budapest de acceso abierto (Budapest Open Acces Intiative) publicada en el año 2002 marcó un hito en el movimiento de acceso abierto a nivel internacional, y fue la primera vez en que se definía el concepto de open access a la literatura científica. Diez años después, con motivo de su décimo aniversario se publicó una nueva versión dónde se reafirmaba su significado inicial:Por “acceso abierto” [a la literatura científica revisada por pares], nos referimos a su disponibilidad gratuita en la Internet pública, que permite a cualquier usuario leer, descargar, copiar, distribuir, imprimir, buscar o añadir un enlace al texto completo de esos artículos, rastrearlos para su indización, incorporarlos como datos en un software, o utilizarlos para cualquier otro propósito que sea legal, sin barreras financieras, legales o técnicas, aparte de las que son inseparables del acceso mismo a la Internet. La única limitación en cuanto a reproducción y distribución, y el único papel del copyright (los derechos patrimoniales) en este ámbito, debería ser la de dar a los autores el control sobre la integridad de sus trabajos y el derecho a ser adecuadamente reconocidos y citados (1).

Full textAbstract:
Desde a criação da Revista Fitos (RF) na modalidade eletrônica em 2014, metas de fluxo contínuo (qualidade, indexação, profissionalização e internacionalização) norteiam o desenvolvimento do periódico e orientam a definição do foco de trabalho a cada ano.A RF também acompanha os movimentos da Fiocruz relacionados à comunicação científica e, nesse sentido, o ano de 2018 foi marcado por um amplo debate em torno da Ciência Aberta, definida aqui como: “[...] a atividade científica praticada de modo aberto, colaborativo e transparente, em todos os domínios do conhecimento, desde as ciências fundamentais até às ciências sociais e humanidades” [1].O paradigma da abertura, cujo terreno fértil para o seu desenvolvimento foi a evolução das tecnologias da informação e comunicação (TICs), coloca no foco da discussão os processos colaborativos, de compartilhamento e de reutilização na produção científica. Na concepção de Albagli[2], Ciência Aberta tem um conceito abrangente, semelhante a um guarda-chuva, que se baseia em diversos pilares e inclui múltiplas dimensões, a saber: Acesso Aberto; Dados Abertos, Pesquisa e Inovação Aberta, Ciência Cidadã, Código Aberto, Caderno Aberto de Laboratório, Recursos Educacionais Abertos, Redes Sociais Científica, etc.Destaca-se, nesse contexto, o Acesso Aberto (AA), em que se incluem as publicações científicas (Via Dourada) e o auto arquivamento/depósito das publicações em repositórios institucionais (Via Verde), cuja definição, segundo o documento da Iniciativa de Budapest sobre Acesso Aberto (BOAI-Budapest Open Access Initiative) é:Acesso Aberto à literatura científica revisada por pares significa a disponibilidade livre na Internet, permitindo a qualquer usuário ler, fazer download, copiar, distribuir, imprimir, pesquisar ou referenciar o texto integral desses artigos, recolhê-los para indexação, introduzi-los como dados em software, ou usá-los para outro qualquer fim legal, sem barreiras financeiras, legais ou técnicas que não sejam inseparáveis ao próprio acesso a uma conexão Internet. As únicas restrições de reprodução ou distribuição e o único papel para o direito autoral neste domínio é dar aos autores o controle sobre a integridade do seu trabalho e o direito de ser, devidamente, reconhecido e citado[3].No que se refere aos periódicos científicos, propriamente ditos, a emergência das revistas eletrônicas em AA no início deste século, prometia o rompimento com a tradicional estrutura de validação e controle do conhecimento científico, abrigando a esperança da democratização deste conhecimento, ampliando o acesso não apenas aos cientistas, mas à sociedade em geral e transformando a estrutura do sistema de comunicação científica. Outro fator que em muito estimulou o acesso aberto foi a crise dos periódicos (década de 1980) que levou a comunidade científica a buscar alternativas para disponibilizar o conhecimento produzido, minimizando custos. Instalou-se, entretanto, um jogo político-econômico revelador da tensão entre pesquisadores e academia e os grandes publishers, no que se refere ao poder sobre o conhecimento científico produzido.Os periódicos eletrônicos, no entanto, em adaptação à nova realidade tecnológica, fizeram a transposição de suas práticas editoriais tradicionais para o ambiente online, sem levar em conta a especificidade da web, com a diferença de serem acessíveis sem pagamento.Passado esse tempo, muitas mudanças ocorreram, muitos serviços editoriais evoluíram tecnologicamente e várias adaptações foram necessárias para acompanhar o novo panorama da comunicação científica internacional, tais como a publicação de manuscritos em servidores de preprints e posprints, as novas opções da revisão por pares e o papel geral dos periódicos em garantir qualidade e agregar valor aos manuscritos.Spinak[4] alerta que essa onda de inovações está mudando o papel dos periódicos, o processo de arbitragem, a edição em geral e apresenta um desafio para as revistas sem fins lucrativos dos países emergentes e em desenvolvimento.São esses desafios que estão motivando a equipe editorial da Revista Fitos a mergulhar na temática do AA em total consonância com as políticas e encaminhamentos da Fiocruz.Assim como a maioria dos periódicos, a passagem da RF para o modelo eletrônico, fundamental para a caracterização de acesso aberto, tomou por base o modelo tradicional de publicação, transpondo-o do impresso para o eletrônico. Na atualidade, então, adequações estão em andamento para que, cada vez mais, a RF possa atender aos critérios da temática do AA, com vistas a difundir o conhecimento científico sobre pesquisa, desenvolvimento e inovação em medicamentos da diversidade vegetal.Nesse contexto, busca-se: a melhoria na página de publicação da revista, priorizando o conteúdo e a usabilidade; a motivação para que o autor seja parceiro da revista na divulgação de seu trabalho; o estabelecimento de critérios mais rígidos de revisão dos manuscritos, visando à qualidade do conteúdo; a exigência dos objetos digitais que facilitam a identificação da obra e do autor (DOI, ORCID), a submissão do periódico à avaliação em bases voltadas para o AA (Redalyc, DOAJ, etc.), a disponibilização dos documentos e orientações editoriais também em Inglês, o uso de mídias alternativas para divulgação (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), entre outros.Diante disso, formula-se o convite a todos os envolvidos com o desenvolvimento da RF para assumirem, como sendo de sua responsabilidade, os desafios que se apresentam para o AA e, consequentemente, da Ciência Aberta.Rosane de Albuquerque dos Santos AbreuEditora Executiva

In the current era of worldwide competition in higher education, universities are caught up in market processes that encourage compliance with the measurement systems applied by world university rankings. Despite questions about the rankings’ methodologies and data sources, universities continue to adopt assessment and evaluation practices that require academic researchers to publish in sources indexed by the major commercial bibliographic databases used by world rankings. Building on a critique of the limited bibliometric measures and underlying assumptions of rankings, the Curtin Open Knowledge Initiative interdisciplinary research project aggregates and analyses scholarly research data including open access output from multiple open sources for more than 20,000 institutions worldwide. To understand who is creating knowledge and how diversity is enacted through the transmission of knowledge we analyse workforce demographic data. In this article, we discuss the project’s rationale, methodologies and examples of data analysis that can enable universities to make independent assessments, ask questions about rankings, and contribute to open knowledge-making and sharing. Expanding on our presentation to the LIBER Online 2021 Conference, we discuss collaboration with academic libraries and other scholarly communication stakeholders to develop and extend the open knowledge project.

AbstractEmergency physicians are leaders in the ‘‘free open-access meducation’’ (FOAM) movement. The mandate of FOAM is to create open-access education and knowledge translation resources for trainees and practicing physicians (e.g., blogs, podcasts, and vodcasts). Critics of FOAM have suggested that because such resources can be easily published online without quality control mechanisms, unreviewed FOAM resources may be erroneous or biased. We present a new initiative to incorporate open, expert, peer review into an established academic medical blog. Experts provided either pre- or postpublication reviews that were visible to blog readers. This article outlines the details of this initiative and discusses the potentially transformative impact of this educational innovation.

The researcher explains the crisis in scholarly communications and how open access (OA) can reform the present system. OA has evolved two systems for delivering research articles: OA archives or repositories and OA journals. They differ in that OA journals conduct peer review and OA archives do not. Discussion focuses on how these two delivery systems work, including such topics as OAI, local institutional repositories, Eprints self-archiving software, cross-archives searching, metadata harvesting, and the individuals who invented OA and organizations that support it.</span>

It is estimated that more than 1 billion people across the world are affected by a neglected tropical disease (NTD) that requires medical intervention. These diseases tend to afflict people in areas with high rates of poverty and cost economies billions of dollars every year. Collaborative drug discovery efforts are required to reduce the burden of these diseases in endemic regions. The release of “Open Access Boxes” is an initiative launched by Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV) in collaboration with its partners to catalyze new drug discovery in neglected diseases. These boxes are mainly requested by biology researchers across the globe who may not otherwise have access to compounds to screen nor knowledge of the workflow that needs to be followed after identification of actives from their screening campaigns. Here, we present guidelines on how to move such actives beyond the hit identification stage, to help in capacity strengthening and enable a greater impact of the initiative.

The information society is a force that has changed the way we live, work, learn, inform and have fun today. The open model of education has experienced explosive growth in the last decade thanks to the increasing availability of modern technologies. The Open Access Initiative can now be seen in many areas of education and science where it contributes to faster and better acquisition and dissemination of knowledge. This paper discusses the possibilities of using a new open model based on the principles of Open Source. The scientific contribution represents opportunities for application and improvement for all actors in the process, while creating significant financial savings and impact on the digital divide. This is reflected in the use of legal software that is free, the use of old computer configurations and open access to scientific and university publications. In this way, schools, teachers and students have the opportunity to participate in teaching, work or play, regardless of their financial status.

ABSTRACTThe development of chronologies relies on integrating information from a number of different sources. In addition to direct dating evidence, such as radiocarbon dates, researchers will have contextual information which might be an environmental sequence or the context in an archaeological site. This information can be combined through Bayesian or other types of age-model. Once a chronology has been developed, this information can be used to estimate, for example, chronological uncertainties, rates of change, or the age of material which has not been directly dated.Dealing with the information associated with chronology building is complicated and re-evaluation of chronologies often requires structured information which is hard to access. Although there are many databases with primary dating information, these often do not contain all of the information needed for a chronology. The Chronological Query Language (CQL) developed for OxCal was intended to be a convenient way of pulling such information together for Bayesian analysis. However, even this does not include much of the associated information required for reusing data in other analyses.The IntChron initiative builds on the framework set up for the INTIMATE (Integrating Ice core, Marine and Terrestrial Records) chronological database (Bronk Ramsey et al. 2014) and is primarily an information exchange format and data visualization tool which enables users to pull together the types of information needed for chronological analysis. It is intended for use with multiple dating methodologies and while it will be integrated with OxCal, is intended to be an open format suitable for use with other software tools. The file format is JSON which is easily readable in software such as R, Python and MatLab. IntChron is not primarily intended to be a data depository but rather an index of sites where information is stored in the relevant format. As an initial step, databases of radiocarbon dates from the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit (including those for the NERC radiocarbon facility), the RESET tephra database, the INTIMATE chronological database and regional radiocarbon databases for Egypt and Southern Africa are all linked. The intention is that users of OxCal will also be able to make published data accessible to others and to store working data, visible only to the user, to be used with the associated analysis tools. The IntChron site allows data from third party sources to be accessed through a representational state transfer (REST) application programming interface (API) in a number of different formats (JSON, csv, txt, oxcal) and associated bibliographic information in BibTeX format.The aim of the IntChron initiative is to make it easy for users to provide data (in the single JSON format with limited minimum requirements) as well as to access data and tools, while promoting robust chronologies including realistic estimates of uncertainties. It is hoped that this will help to bring the chronological research communities to a point where data access is as easy as it is in some other fields. This is particularly important for Early Career Researchers and for those seeking to use large datasets in novel ways.
