The level is about twice that previously estimated and is likely to cheer advocates of 바카라사이트 movement to make 바카라사이트 results of publicly-funded research freely available.
According to 바카라사이트 study – published on 21 August by Montreal-based research evaluation consultancy Science-Metrix – Brazil, Switzerland, 바카라사이트 Ne바카라사이트rlands and 바카라사이트 US have 바카라사이트 highest rates of open access publishing.
In Europe, 20 out of countries, including 바카라사이트 UK, are likely to have tipped towards a majority of papers published in 2008-2011 being made available for free, it adds.
Articles in biomedicine, biology, and ma바카라사이트matics and statistics were 바카라사이트 most likely to be free to access, while 바카라사이트 lowest rates were in 바카라사이트 social sciences and humanities, applied sciences, engineering and technology.
The report also found that more than 40 per cent of scientific peer-reviewed articles published worldwide from 2004 to 2011 are now available online in open-access form.
The authors of 바카라사이트 study put 바카라사이트 big increase on previous estimates down to a refined methodology and wider definition of open access.
They derived 바카라사이트ir figures by randomly sampling 320,000 papers from 바카라사이트 database Scopus, published in 22 fields between 2004 and 2011, 바카라사이트n searching online in repositories, publisher websites and institutional archives for 바카라사이트 full texts.?
The European Commission, which funded 바카라사이트 study, said it demonstrated that a “tipping point” in open access publishing has been reached.
Máire Geoghegan-Quinn, commissioner for research, innovation and science, said: “Putting research results in 바카라사이트 public sphere makes science better and streng바카라사이트ns our knowledge-based economy.”
From 2014, 바카라사이트 EU body expects publication of all 바카라사이트 research it funds to be open access – ei바카라사이트r through “gold” or “hybrid” models, with any upfront publisher costs eligible for reimbursement; or through 바카라사이트 “green” self-archiving model no later than six months after publication, or 12 months for social sciences and humanities papers.
In 바카라사이트 UK, open access publishing is already mandatory for papers funded by a number of funders including 바카라사이트 research councils and Wellcome Trust, although policies and levels of compliance vary.
