OPEN ACCESS FOR RESEARCH
Open Access.... Maximises the access to the research findings; Increases research impact to a wider readership; Expands shared knowledge across scientific field; Make your research output more visible to
researchers elsewhere and make research from elsewhere more accessible;
Universities and Research Institutions afford to subscribe to a fraction of those journals, that means that research is having only a fraction of its potential usage and impact
Increases the citation impact of the author; Over time increases the Journal Impact Factor (?)
![Page 5: Open Access for Research: The Librarian Overview of Opportunities & Trends](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060108/5550498ab4c905b2788b4ef1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
WHAT ELSE DO RESEARCHERS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OA?
What OA journals exist in your research field? - Open Science Directory, BioMed Central, PloS,
DOAJ ... What Institutional Repository your institution
use and how a researchers can benefit from it? - UJDigispace; VUT’s DigiResearch
Publishing in subscription-based journals, can limit your readership (Science Direct; Wiley Online, SpringerLink, etc.)
Publishing your pre-print article in OA repositories can enlarge your readership and citation impact: Arxiv.org; UJDigispace; VUT’s DigiResearch ....
Deposit your post-prints in a OA Repository: UJDigispace, VUT’s DigiResearch ....
As a Researcher you have an option to publish in Accredited Open Access Journals (AOAJSA)

INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS: HOT FROM THE PRESS
IOP have adopted a more liberal Creative Commons license (CC-BY 3.0) for future articles published on a gold open access basis.
This license allows others to distribute, re-mix, amend, and build upon a piece of work as long as they credit the original creation.
The licenses grant rights to the users of the content but do not replace the copyright, which remains with the copyright holder.
The change applies to articles being published on an open access basis in all IOP-owned hybrid journals and the gold open access titles Environmental Research Letters and New Journal of Physics ......

SOCIAL MEDIA & RESEARCH
Social Media can help Researchers:
Promote their research; Connect with other researchers & share resources

HOW SOCIAL MEDIA CAN HELP RESEARCHERS?
Making Research Publications available in an Open Access Repository is not enough! (Kelly, 2012)
Social media provides opportunities for the “connected researchers” to engage more effectively with their peers and raise the visibility of their research outputs which can help in enhancing citations of their papers and implementation of the ideas.
The use of Blogs, Twitter, Facebook, Social media sharing tools such as Slideshare and research profiling services such as LinkedIn, Academia.edu, Mendeley to develop successful research collaborations
Read the article “Open Access and Open Practices for the Connected Researcher”, Bryan Kelly (2012)
