Slide 3
Standing on the shoulders of giants
“Bernard of Chartres used to compare us to [puny] dwarfs
perched on the shoulders of giants. He pointed out that we
see more and farther than our predecessors, not because
we have keener vision or greater height, but because we are
lifted up and borne aloft on their gigantic stature.”
John of Salisbury: Metalogicon 3,4,46-50
“If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of
giants.”
Isaac Newton
(both quotes from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_on_the_shoulders_of_giants)

“In my own community of high-energy
theoretical physics, the rapid acceptance of
electronic communication of research
information was facilitated by a pre-existing
‘preprint culture’, in which the irrelevance of
refereed journals to ongoing research has
long been recognized.
[…] technological advances – combined with
a remarkable lack of initiative on the part of
conventional journals in response to the
electronic revolution – rendered the
development of e-print archives ‘an accident
waiting to happen.’”
Paul Ginsparg 1994

Digital Repositories

Repositories are systems to safely store
and publish digital objects and their
descriptive metadata.
Not in the meaning of software repositories.
Examples:
• Digital archives
• Institutional repositories (OA preprints &
postprints, theses, grey literature, …)
• Digital image libraries
• Research data repositories
• …
More than 2500 Open Access repositories
worldwide.

Budapest Open Access Initiative
“By ‘open access’ to this literature, we mean its free availability on the public internet,
permitting any users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full
texts of these articles, crawl them for indexing, pass them as data to software, or use
them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than
those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself. The only constraint on
reproduction and distribution, and the only role for copyright in this domain, should be to
give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly
acknowledged and cited.”

Slide 10
Bethesda Statement on Open Access Publishing
1. The author(s) and copyright holder(s) grant(s) to all users a free, irrevocable,
worldwide, perpetual right of access to, and a license to copy, use, distribute, transmit
and display the work publicly and to make and distribute derivative works, in any
digital medium for any responsible purpose, subject to proper attribution of
authorship[2], as well as the right to make small numbers of printed copies for their
personal use.
2. A complete version of the work and all supplemental materials, including a copy of the
permission as stated above, in a suitable standard electronic format is deposited
immediately upon initial publication in at least one online repository that is supported
by an academic institution, scholarly society, government agency, or other well-
established organization that seeks to enable open access, unrestricted distribution,
interoperability, and long-term archiving (for the biomedical sciences, PubMed Central
is such a repository).http://legacy.earlham.edu/~peters/fos/bethesda.htm

Slide 11
Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the
Sciences and Humanities
For the first time ever, the Internet now offers the chance to constitute a global and interactive
representation of human knowledge, including cultural heritage and the guarantee of worldwide
access. […]
1. Open access contributions must satisfy two conditions: The author(s) and right holder(s) of such
contributions grant(s) to all users a free, irrevocable, worldwide, right of access to, and a license to
copy, use, distribute, transmit and display the work publicly and to make and distribute derivative
works, in any digital medium for any responsible purpose, subject to proper attribution of
authorship […] as well as the right to make small numbers of printed copies for their personal use.
2. A complete version of the work and all supplemental materials, including a copy of the permission
as stated above, in an appropriate standard electronic format is deposited (and thus published) in
at least one online repository […] that is supported and maintained by an academic institution,
scholarly society, government agency, or other well-established organization that seeks to enable
open access, unrestricted distribution, inter operability, and long-term archiving.

Slide 12
What is Open Access all about?
Open Access is a publishing model
It does not completely change the scholarly communication, it just lowers barriers
OA is not per se indicator on quality
Just like in closed access world:
publishers and editors have to ensure quality
Open Access is the idea of free and accessible human knowledge
Free in the sense of no charge
Free in the sense of free licenses
Free in the sense of no technical barriers (as far as possible)

Open Access Basics

Slide 15
Copyright protection (within Germany)
• Author = creator of a work
• Only natural persons (creators) can claim full copyright
• vs. rights holder: natural or legal personWHO
• Protection of original works
• Ideas, concepts etc. are not protectable
• Work = intellectually created by a natural person (§ 2 UrhG)WHAT
• Protected by law
• No further registration necessary (in contrast to patents, trademarks, logosetc.)
• Copyright term: 70 years after the creator‘s death
HOW
Basic aspects of Open Access | Pascal-Nicolas Becker | DWZ Roundtable OA | Cairo, 22.07.2015
Slide 16
Transfer of rights
• Rights of use can be transfered (§ 31 UrhG)
• … for each type of use individually
• … limited in time (e.g. timespan of 5 years)
• … geographically limited (e.g. distribution within Europe)
• … as exclusive or non-exclusive right
Exploitationrights
• Rights holder can use the work exclusively
• Even creator has to obtain rights for further use(s)Exclusive
• Rights holder can use the work
• Creator can transfer non-exclusive rights to different (natural or legal) persons
Non-exclusive

CC in a nutshell
Non-profit organization
Founded in 2001 in USA
Version 1.0 of licenses released in 2002
Licenses developed in the US
Intended for international use
License modules evolved over the years
Latest version is 4.0 of 2013
Main idea: make licensing easy
Simple way to transfer rights
Only CC-BY complies with demands to re-use Open Access works!

Business and publication models
Publication types
Journals, series, monographs, …
Publishing models
E-only, hybrid
OA is not free of cost
Business models e.g.
Article processing charge (APC)
Membership models
Institutional sponsorship
Subscription fees for hybrid model

Slide 23
Recommendations for authors
• Check out OA alternatives in your discipline
• Ask library or program manager for help
• Be aware of the benefits OA gives you
Publish Open Access!
• Proper licensing (CC-BY)
• Professional publisherGo Gold OA!
• Read publishing contracts & negotiate terms
• Retain rights to self-archive
• Keep post prints
Gold OA not possible? Go Green OA!

“Although the WorldWideWeb still
represents only a small fraction of the
overall usage, this access mode is expected
to become dominant in the near future.”
Paul Ginsparg 1994

Slide 26
Internet = distributed network
Many Open Access platforms, many repositories, but:
Open Access is a publishing model, not a complete change of scholarly communication
Open Access Journals are still “journals”
Managers of Open Access platforms want their content to be found
The Internet is huge, but we have search engines and aggregator services
Most library discovery systems may include a OA publications automatically

Slide 28
Actual topics
Find ways to support scholars in OA Publishing (e.g. APC funds)
Open APC: Article Process Charge made transparent (http://github.com/OpenAPC/)
Research Data: If we share publications, why don‘t we share the resources (data, software, …)
behind the publications? Why are we still missing recognition for „data publications“?
Linked Data: Export repository contents to the Semantic Web. How can it be used elsewhere?
And still: Convince authors of Open Access, create awareness, …
