This document summarizes the work of the OpenAIRE project, which aims to create an infrastructure for open scholarship. It discusses OpenAIRE's three phases of work from 2009-2018 supporting open access policies and interoperability. Key aspects included a network of over 50 partners across Europe providing support and services, integrating over 13.9 million publications and other research outputs. The document also outlines OpenAIRE2020's goals like supporting open data and new trends in scholarly communication including open peer review. It provides examples of open peer review experiments and calls for common standards to further encourage open scholarship.

- 10. From Open Access to Open Science 10 Aim: To open up scientific processes and products from all levels to everyone … • Open Access (publications, data, software, educational resources) • Open Methodology (open notebooks, study preregistration) • Citizen Science • Open Evaluation / Open Peer Review
- 11. Why Open Peer Review? • Time • Accountability • Bias • Incentive • Wasted effort Picture credit: AJ Cann, CC BY-SA 2.0 Problems with traditional peer review ...
- 12. Open Peer Review, broadly defined … 12 Traditionally, peer review is ... • Anonymous: reviewers unknown to authors, or both authors and reviewers unknown to each other • Selective: reviewers selected by editors • Opaque: neither the process nor the reviews are made public Openness in peer review can refer to ... • Absence of anonymity (open identity) • Self-selecting reviewers (open participation) • Public processes and reviews (open access)
- 13. Encouraging experimentation … • Use OpenAIRE infrastructure to seed experimentation • Stakeholder survey (to come) • Call for Tenders in 2015 • Small grants • Investigate how OPR might integrate with OpenAIRE • Provide case studies for wider evaluation • Encourage technological experimentation 13
- 14. • Francophone environmental sciences journal • Using the blog platform hypotheses.org for OPR • Using hypothes.is for open commentary • Treating OPR as a social rather than a technological problem 14
- 15. • Incentivizing post-publication peer reviews • Capturing reviews from “journal clubs” • Platform for reviews of Zenodo content • 15
- 16. Open Peer Review Module for repositories • OPR plug-in for (DSpace) repositories to convert them into functional evaluation platforms • Includes published reviews, disclosed identities, reviewer reputation system • Complete code, with full documentation, available on Github under an open license: • https://github.com/arvoConsultores/Open-Peer-Review-Module 16
- 17. Future directions: A call for common standards • Uncouple peer review from “publishing” • Repositories are more than pre-/post-print servers! • Federate OPR services • We need to agree: • What OPR is (standardization of vocabulary) • How we measure its effectiveness (standardization of experimentation) • How we describe it for machines (standardization of metadata) 17
