Utan vägtullar på information highway. Vetenskaplig publicering i Open Access-tidskrifter : en intervjuundersökning med musikforskare / Tollfree on the Information Highway : Scientific Publishing in Open-Access Journals – Interviews with Musicologists

Schöld, Judit January 2007 (has links)
This thesis aims to explore how musicologists reason about publishing their articles in open-access journals. What is the challenge they face and what are the possibilities musicologists are concerned about? For the method I used open-ended and structured interviews based on four factors: trustworthiness, accessibility, reaching the readers and status of the publishing media. Musicologists are positive to the open-access concept and are willing to submit their papers to open-access journals. They think that the accessibility of the articles is going to increase when they publish them in open-access journals. Furthermore, in order to submit their articles to open-access journals, the musicologists expect that these journals have a peer-review system. Less than half of the musicologists want these journals to have high impact factor. The rest of them are not concerned about the status of the publishing media. Some of the musicologists thought they could reach more readers by means of the traditional printed journals, some thought they could do it better by open-access journals. / Uppsatsnivå: D

Humanioran och Open Access : en kvalitativ studie i drivkrafter och strategier hos litteraturvetare inför publicering / The Humanities and Open Access : a qualitative study of the motivations and strategies of literary scholars facing publication

Eriksson, Magnus January 2012 (has links)
The natural sciences and the humanities are associated with differentpublishing patterns. Open Access publishing are mainly associated withthe publishing patterns of the natural sciences. Many Swedishuniversities and research funders are proponents of Open Accesspublishing, what will that trend mean to the scholars with a publishingpattern not corresponding to Open Access? In this paper literary scholarsare interviewed for the purpose of learning the motives and strategieswhich form their publishing pattern, and how they relate to Open Accesspublishing. The results show that literary scholars are less competitiveand hold a more gentle knowledge-sharing ideal, than natural scientists.The drive to gain acknowledgment and the recognition of colleagues inorder to collect academic capital as Bourdieu describes the academicfield is still present though. The literary scholars publishes theirmaterials to a greater degree than natural scientists in a variety offormats, such as cultural magazines, books, Festschrifts and bookreviews. They value the exchange of information with non-academics aswell as colleagues. However, increased focus on productivity measuredin cited articles are threatening their non-academic publishing. OpenAccess offers a way of keeping the information exchange with nonacademics,while still enabling publishing in academic journals. Thestudy results show that the low degree of Open Access publishing amongliterary scholars are due to their assessment of what type of publicationwill lead the most efficient publishing, that it is a practical decision eventhough the Open Access ideals are appealing to the scholars. / Program: Bibliotekarie

In order to present their stories two magazines were used in the study, the Information Science Magazine and the Inter-American Library Science Magazine, focusing on the migration from printed media into electronic media and the beginning of the automation of information in Brazil and Colombia. The issue studied is the impact caused by electronic scientific Magazines in the scientific Community. The study developed from the transition of Brazilian and Colombian journals with the purpose of showing the role of these literatures; their challenges in the scientific Community; and how the free access to these electronic scientific journals took place. In order to achieve that goal, it was done a review on the scientific communication in Latin America and a comparison between the Science Information Magazine and the Inter-American Library Science Magazine, describing the year of transition of their supports, the amount of publications produced and the quality. The results revealed that the electronic scientific production is very important for the academic-scientific production, providing current and free access information to researchers. / O presente trabalho realizou um estudo acerca da transição do periódico científico impresso para o eletrônico, a partir da análise comparativa entre duas revistas de Biblioteconomia e Ciência da Informação, pioneiras em seus países, sendo estes: Brasil e Colômbia. Como objeto de estudo, foram utilizadas a revista Ciência da Informação e a revista Interamericana de Bibliotecología, a fim de apresentar sua história, focando na migração do meio impresso ao meio eletrônico, e o início da automatização da comunicação científica no Brasil e na Colômbia. O problema estudado foi o impacto causado pelas revistas científicas eletrônicas na comunidade científica. O estudo partiu da transição dos periódicos brasileiro e colombiano, com o objetivo de mostrar o papel dessas literaturas; seus desafios dentro da sociedade científica; e como se deu o acesso livre aos periódicos científicos eletrônicos. Para atingir o objetivo, foi feita uma revisão entre a comunicação científica na América Latina e uma comparação entre as revistas Ciência da Informação e Interamericana de Bibliotecología, esquadrinhando o ano de transição de seus suportes, a quantidade de publicações produzidas e a suas qualidades. Os resultados revelaram que a produção científica eletrônica é de grande valia para a produção acadêmico-científica, trazendo informações correntes e de livre acesso aos pesquisadores.

Reassembling scholarly publishing: open access, institutional repositories and the process of change

Kennan, Mary Anne, Information Systems, Technology & Management, Australian School of Business, UNSW January 2008 (has links)
Open access (OA) to scholarly publishing is encouraged and enabled by new technologies such as the Internet, the World Wide Web, their standards and protocols, and search engines. Institutional repositories (IR) as the most recent technological incarnations of OA enable researchers and their institutions to make accessible the outputs of research. While many OA repositories are being implemented, researchers are surprisingly slow in adopting them. While activists promote OA as emanating from the ideals of scholarship, others revile OA as undermining of scholarly publishing's economic base and therefore undermining quality control and peer review. Change is occurring but there are contested views and actions. This research seeks to increase understanding of the issues by addressing the research questions: "How and why is open access reassembling scholarly publishing?" and "What role does introducing an open access institutional repository to researchers play in this reassembly?" This thesis contributes to answering these questions by investigating two IR implementations and the research communities they serve. The research was conducted as an Actor-Network Theory (ANT) field study, where the actors were followed and their relations and controversies explored in action as their landscape was being contested. The research found that central to our understanding of the reassembling of scholarly publishing is the agency emerging from the sociomaterial relations of the OA vision, IR technology and researchers. Being congruent with the aims of scholarship, and also being flexible and mutable, the OA vision enrols researchers to enact it through OA IR, thus transforming scholarly communications. This is counteracted by publishers aligned with the academic reward network within traditional publishing networks. In this delicate choreography the OA IR, its developers, researchers, university administrators and policy makers are merging as critical actors with their more or less congruent vision of OA enacted in their network. The comparative ANT account of the two IR life stories shows how such enactment depends on the degree to which different OA visions could converge, enrol and mobilise other actors, in particular institutional actors, such as a mandate, in transforming researchers' publishing behaviour. This thesis contributes to a novel and in-depth understanding of OA and IR and their roles in reassembling scholarly publishing. It also contributes to the use of ANT in information systems research by advancing a sociomaterial ontology which recognises the intertwining of human and material agency.

Toward Global Open Scholarship - Access to Research in Development and Globalization

Jinha, Arif 22 February 2012 (has links)
Two centuries after the printing press was invented, the first scholarly journal appeared in 1665. Less than two decades after the journal went online, the digital format is reshaping scholarly communication rapidly. We are moving quickly towards an open system of scholarship, and from a Western heritage of print scholarship to a future of global knowledge, a shift driven by the communications revolution. This thesis provides data describing the size and growth of the universe of scholarship, its global reach, how much of it is accessible free of charge on the internet and the rate at which that share is growing. Open Access together with development programs aimed at reducing price barriers to subscription journals have vastly increased the possibilities for accessing research in the South. The relevance to globalization and development is explored conceptually and revealed in the results.

Internationale Open Access Week in Dresden

Maget, Sara, Di Rosa, Elena 09 January 2013 (has links) (PDF)
Den Wunsch, dass wissenschaftliche Inhalte frei verfügbar und nutzbar sein sollten, gibt es nicht erst seit dem tiefgreifenden Strukturwandel durch das Internet. Die technischen Möglichkeiten haben diesen Wunsch allerdings in eine konkrete Forderung gewandelt, die sich in dem Begriff Open Access manifestiert, und die von nationalen und internationalen Wissenschaftsorganisationen getragen wird. Die Internationale Open Access Week gilbt all - jährlich als Anlass, um Open Access nicht nur in Fachkreisen zu diskutieren, sondern auch mit WissenschaftlerInnen, StudentInnen und allen Interessierten. Die SLUB Dresden hat die Woche vom 22. bis 28. Oktober genutzt, um für Open Access mit verschiedenen Veranstaltungen zu werben.

The Bioeconomic Analysis of Longline Yellowfin Tuna in the Western and Central Pacific

Tsai, Ching-yu 11 July 2011 (has links)
In this study, based on the basic theory model ¢wGordon-Schaefer model is used to discuss the equilibrium levels for yellowfin tuna in the Western and Central Pacific of open access (OA) and present value maximization (MPV). And then to compare the catches and the stocks on the two model¡¦s equilibrium value, the result shows the management of yellowfin tuna in the Western and Central Pacific tend to MPV model, the regional fisheries organization (RFMO) to detect the implementation of the measures (MCS) is significant; in addition, use sensitivity analysis and then to understand the changes on the stocks and the effort quantities effected by varying different parameters. In OA, if you want to get effectively maintain the sustainability of the stocks, should be considered to reduce the price and the catch coefficient, increase the cost per unit of effort to control; in MPV, we can understand that the catch coefficient and the intrinsic growth rate have a bigger influence in the effort quantities; Finally, by simulating the catches and the stocks, that if it can continue to effectively manage fishery by MCS in the future, the catches and the stocks of yellowfin tuna will tend to balance the value of MPV, and so on, not only resources effective use of maximum profit and maintaining our fleet of ocean-going business interests, but also resources can be sustainable.

The study of the Bioeconomics analysis Of Grey mullet in Taiwan

Cheng, Man-chun 29 January 2007 (has links)
Abstract This study is based on the theory of biology and economy to establish the open access model, dynamic optimization model and static optimization of fishery mathematical models, to discuss the problem of fishery management. To be aimed at getting the equilibrium of resource stock and effort, research data are mainly analyzed by comparative statues. In so doing, the amount of grey mullet, collect and analyze the estimation of exogenous variable. Then, we can use Mathematica program to calculate the equilibrium value resource stock and the effort, and do the sensitivity analysis by standing on the change of estimation of exogenous variable. The result of analysis is as follow: These three fishery mathematical models¡¦ resource stock and effort are consistency. In another view of CPUE, it is not obvious of the economic effect of open access model. We must strengthen the management in policy of fishing for grey mullet, to let the fisherman earn the highest economic benefits. Keyword: open access model static optimization model. dynamic optimization model.
