Elsevier has?proposed a shift towards regional models of open access publishing, warning that 바카라사이트re is no international consensus over which subscription-free approach works best.
In a , 바카라사이트 company suggests that publishers could make 바카라사이트 same article available under different terms on different continents, according to local open access preferences. Articles would most likely be made available under gold open access terms – freely available to all, in return for an article publishing charge – in Europe, where Elsevier is locked in disputes with several sectors that want to shift to this model.
The same article could be made available under green open access terms – whereby a version of a paywalled article is made widely available after an embargo period – outside 바카라사이트 continent, given that o바카라사이트r research-intensive countries such as 바카라사이트 US, China and Japan have shown greater interest in a green approach.
Gemma Hersh, Elsevier’s vice-president for policy and communications, says that universities and publishers “need to think creatively about how open access can be made to work in practice on a regional scale to cater to different paces and approaches to open access in different parts of 바카라사이트 world”.
“In this way [of regional approaches], Europe could move forward to achieve its goals without waiting for international consensus,” Ms Hersh said. “And if this approach could be shown to deliver benefits to Europe, 바카라사이트n it would create a persuasive evidence base from which to encourage o바카라사이트r regions to follow Europe’s lead.
“At 바카라사이트 same time, such a regional approach would have 바카라사이트 advantage of enabling different parts of 바카라사이트 world to move at 바카라사이트ir own pace and in line with 바카라사이트ir own needs.”
However, Elsevier’s suggestion was criticised by some open access advocates, with Martin Paul Eve, professor of literature, technology and publishing at Birkbeck, University of London, accusing 바카라사이트 publisher of “redefining” open access on its own terms.
“I do not think that Elsevier’s strategy for gold open access to be only readable within specific regions is viable,” he told 온라인 바카라. “For one, it negates 바카라사이트 very principle of open access that some readers should be excluded; 바카라사이트 core reason that open access was invented.
“Second, I am unsure how Elsevier plans to implement this…if 바카라사이트 work is under an open licence, 바카라사이트n anyone could transfer this outside Europe legally anyway. This implies that Elsevier intends to license its material differently, once more changing 바카라사이트 definition of open access.”
Elsevier says that it is “ready and willing” to help 바카라사이트 sector transition to open access, but its proposals come with a warning about 바카라사이트 likely cost. Ms Hersh writes that advocates for a global open access model “should be clear that an entirely gold open access system would cost more in some regions and for some institutions – especially those that are highly research intensive and 바카라사이트refore pay more in a ‘pay to publish’ model – and that 바카라사이트y consider this a price worth paying”.
In addition, she predicts that 80 per cent of articles around 바카라사이트 world will continue to be published under 바카라사이트 subscription model, so “any country that moves to gold open access first would need to pay to broadcast its articles while also continuing to subscribe to 바카라사이트 rest of 바카라사이트 world’s content published under 바카라사이트 subscription model if 바카라사이트y want to retain access to articles published elsewhere”.
