I’ll review some OA collections available for your library to select in the OCLC Knowledge Base. 4. How to add an OA collection to your Catalog, using Collection Manager. What will we cover?
- 4. #WMSglobal 1. Why add Open Access to your catalog?
- 5. #WMSglobal • Provide more diverse resources (geographically, maybe ethnically, different points of view) • Increase the flow of ideas between researchers: those from developing countries, smaller institutions, and Europe↔North America. • Support access for resources published by smaller societies, universities and publishers • Increase your library’s holdings without budget increases • If you are using “Get It Now” for you patrons, the “Get It Now Collection” includes OA journals. Be careful that you aren’t paying for OA articles. Why add OA resources to your Catalog?
- 6. #WMSglobal 2. Brief Orientation to Open Access
- 7. Budapest Open Access Initiative 2002 By "open access" …, 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. give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly acknowledged and cited.

- 11. Open access Models Gold Open Access – Funding Model: the researcher pays a fee to the journal, which can be hundreds or thousands of dollars – Public Access: the public has immediate access to the final, published version of the article. – Peer Review: the article goes through the journals’ processes of peer review. Adapted from Jason M. Kelly “Green, Gold, and Diamond?: A Short Primer on Open Access”
- 12. Open access Models Hybrid Open Access: Some articles in a journal are “Gold” open access, and others are available only to subscribers. – Discovery: Since the entire journal is not OA, it can be difficult to identify which articles are OA and which are not. – Funding Models: the researcher pays a fee to the journal, and the publishers charges subscribers/libraries for the journal. – Public Access: the public has immediate access to the final, published version. – Peer Review: the article goes through the journals’ processes of peer review.
- 13. Open access Models • Diamond Open Access: no fee for authors. – Funding Model: the researcher pays no fee to the journal; Publishing cost is often paid by a society or grant or university press. – Discovery: Metadata must be created by some group. – Public Access: the public has immediate access to the final, published version of the article – Peer Review: the article goes through the journals’ processes of peer review Adapted from Jason M. Kelly “Green, Gold, and Diamond?: A Short Primer on Open Access”
- 14. Open access Models Green Open Access: allows scholars to upload to a digital repository the pre-print article, or after a period (say 1 year) the published article. – Discovery: Usually requires a secondary search, or plug in, to find the OA article. The publisher continues to charge for the version hosted on their site. – Funding Model: neither the researcher nor the public pays a fee; repositories are supported through institutional funding. – Peer Review: often the pre-print is an edited and peer reviewed version of the article – Public Access: a version of the article may be immediately available to the public, but more likely an embargo. Adaped from Jason M. Kelly “Green, Gold, and Diamond?: A Short Primer on Open Access”
- 15. Open access Models • OER:Open Educational Resource (textbooks, etc.) – Funding Models: Often the author(s) is paid to write the textbook, and the process is funded by grants or institution(s). – Public Access: the public has immediate access to the final, published version. – Peer Review: Author(s) are selected for their experience in the field and in writing textbooks. There is editorial review, but not peer review.
- 16. #WMSglobal 3. Which OCLC KB Open Access collections to select?
- 17. #WMSglobal • Faculty / researcher misconceptions about Open Access journals • Silos separating collection development librarians and electronic resources librarians • Promoting journals you subscribe to ($$$) while still providing access to OA journals. • Varying quality of metadata and updates (but this is a challenge with subscription publishers too) • Gathering stats from OA usage, for data driven assessment, if your institution is into analytics. Local challenges with adding OA to your Catalog
- 18. Journal Collections: DOAJ • “Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) is a community-curated list of open access journals and aims … for quality, peer reviewed open access material.” • Currently 13,000+ journals (From DOAJ website, Oct 2019) • OCLC Knowledge Base name: Directory of Open Access Journals (All titles) = DOAJ.Records
- 19. J Collections: McGill University • Open Access eJournals (McGill) = global.53639.8.mcgillejournalsopenaccess • 12,800+ journals) – less than 1/3 overlap with DOAJ • Generally, these are academic journals, but may not follow all the Budapest Open Access Initiative guidelines. • Takes some occasional maintenance of broken links.

- 24. Journal Collections: • Free Medical Journals = freeAccess.fj4d • – 3,040+ medical journals. I don’t know the origin of this collection. It seems to be maintained cooperatively by OCLC member libraries. Might be helpful if you are a medical library?

- 33. #WMSglobal 4. How to Add Open Access Collections / e-Resources to your Library Catalog
- 34. #WMSglobal Adding an OA collection 1) Search and then Click on the Collection Title: e.g. “Public Library of Science”
- 35. #WMSglobal Adding an OA collection 2)Click on “Website” to test a few titles, to make sure they are OA 3) “Select title” to select individual titles.
- 36. #WMSglobal Adding an OA collection 4) OR Click on “Select Collection” to select ALL titles in the collection.
- 37. #WMSglobal Adding an OA collection 5) Add to a license if you have License Manager, so ILL will work. I made a simple license for OA journals, that only says “Yes” to ILL usage. If ILL staff get tired of requests for OA journals, I can set this license to “NO” ILL usage.
- 38. #WMSglobal Adding an OA collection 6) Probably set linking to “No Proxy Needed” (unless you proxy everything, for statistical purposes)
- 39. #WMSglobal How to move OA lower in Discovery results 7) Examine the Holdings settings Disable “Maintain holdings” can influence search results. In Discovery, if you select “disable”, the titles in this collection will still show a “View full-text” link, but “disable” will move the titles much further down your results lists. Only a precise search will retrieve the titles. (e.g. I selected “disable” for HathiTrust). If you want no ILL for OA, you could also “disable”, but using a license to deflect is easier to change back for all OA collections.
