Dépôts institutionnels en Communauté française de Belgique: ça balance pas mal...

Extrait d'un billet (21/09/09) du recteur Rentier (ULg):

"[...] Contrairement à beaucoup d’autres universités qui ont confié l’encodage à des employés temporaires, à des étudiants jobistes et aux bibliothécaires qui s’acquittent de cette tâche sur base d’informations fournies par les chercheurs en format papier sans réel souci d’harmonisation préalable, nous avons fait reposer la rigueur sur les personnes les plus concernées (dès qu’elle ont compris qu’elle l’étaient!). Ces institutions atteignent donc à peine 20% de documents en full text, elle dépensent de lourdes sommes dans ce contexte pour un résultat décevant avec le risque d’essouflement des équipes et de découragement des chercheurs. Notre approche est certes, au départ, moins populaire auprès de ceux-ci, mais elle se révèle en définitive payante pour tout le monde, et efficace. [...]"

Embedding repositories in research management systems: final report

"The original objective of the project was to locate case studies that demonstrate the value of embedding repositories in research management systems. We did not find fully-fledged examples: we found some cases where people would like to develop fully-integrated systems, but have not done so yet – partly because they have not been given the resources to do so. It also seems that very few repositories have, in themselves, attracted enough content to be functionally useful in such an embedded system even if it has been achieved technically."

Universal Open Access Mandates By Universities Moot The Problem of Uncontrolled Journal Price Inflation Caused By Inelastic Demand

"Stuart Shieber, architect of Harvard's OA Mandate, asks: "Do we continue the status quo, which involves only supporting a business model known to be subject to uncontrolled inflationary spirals, or do we experiment with new mechanisms that have the potential to be economically sound and far more open to boot?"
"The answer is simple: The only reason the uncontrolled inflation of journal subscription costs is a problem at all (and also the reason the upward spiral continues uncontrolled) is the world's universities' inelastic demand and need for access to one another's peer-reviewed journal articles.""

Open access policies must require rather than just request deposit

"It makes a big difference whether a university's (or research funder's) Open Access policy is mandatory (i.e. a requirement) or just invitational (a request). Merely requesting deposit (as did the first version of the NIH OA policy) fails to generate deposits, whereas requiring deposit succeeds (as did the revised NIH policy, once it was upgraded to make deposit mandatory). Research grant recipients and their institutions are conscientious about complying with their funders' official grant fulfillment procedures, to maximize their chances of future funding. University faculty are likewise conscientious about complying with their institutions' official performance review procedures (and so depositing articles in the institutional repository should be designated as the official procedure for submitting them for performance review)."

Fund Gold OA Only AFTER Mandating Green OA, Not INSTEAD

"Open Access (OA) is about access, not about journal economics. The journal affordability problem is only relevant (to OA) inasmuch as it reduces access; and Gold OA publishing is only relevant (to OA) inasmuch as it increases access -- which for a given university, is not much (today): Authors must remain free to publish in their journal of choice. Most refereed journals are not Gold OA journals today. Nor could universities afford to pay Gold OA fees for the publication of all or most of their authors' research output today, because universities are already paying for publication via their subscription fees today."

Institutional Identifiers in Repositories: A Survey Report

"The NISO I2 Working Group surveyed repository managers and developers to determine the current practices and needs of the repository community regarding institutional identifiers. Results from the survey will inform a set of use cases that will be shared with the community, and that are expected to drive the development of a new standard for institutional identifiers."
