The OA citation advantage
The OA landscape 1418-10-2014
"The OA Advantage is real, independent and
causal, but skewed. Its size is indeed
correlated with quality, just as citations
themselves are (the top 20% of articles
receive about 80% of all citations)."

OA misconceptions
The OA landscape 24
OA is about moneyIn a way it is -> The Houghton reportOA is a kind of access, not a kind of business model.The majority of full OA journals do not charge APC's.
OA is poor quality (no prestige / no peer review)OA is for preprints, working papers, postprints
The goal is to remove access barriers, not quality filters.
OA limits freedomOA ≠ gold OA
OA is delayed publishing(Gold OA = immediate, Green OA = delayed)
Not all green OA = delayed.Delays exist because publishers insist on embargos.
OA mandates mean an obligation to publishOA mandates interfere with commercial exploitation
The decision to publish is not a part of the mandate.
OA is for lay readers / dangerousOA benefits everyone, including lay readers.

• green or gold
• APC’s eligible for reimbursement
• deposit mandatory also for gold OA
• 6-12 months embargos accepted
• aims to include research data
In all cases, the Commission would like to encourage authors to retain their copyright and
grant adequate licences to publishers.

Feb 2013 memorandum from the U.S. Government's Office of Science
and Technology Policy requiring public access to federally funded data.

What any researcher can already do to promote (proper) Open Access:
• stop reviewing closed-access papers
• stop reviewing for non-gold Open Access journals
• submit only to full-gold Open Access journals
• put your previously closed-access papers in university repositories
• make previously published closed-access papers gold Open Access
• get an ORCID
• use #altmetrics to see that gold Open Access gives you more impact for
your papers toochem-bla-ics blog, Saturday, August 30, 2014
