ABSTRACT

Regardless of multiple efforts carried out across many countries to disseminate the ideas and the practice of open science, most scholars in the early 2020s do not self-archive their research articles and do not publish research papers in preprint form. Having received no education and training on open science, researchers are often puzzled on what to do, in practice, to start reaping the benefits of open science. This study offers a succinct vademecum on how to benefit from the open science approach to scholarly communication, no matter whether in natural or in humanistic and social sciences.

ABSTRACT

Scholarly communication in science, technology, and medicine has been organized around journal-based scientific publishing for the past 350 years. Scientific publishing has unique business models and includes stakeholders with conflicting interests-publishers, funders, libraries, and scholars who create, curate, and consume the literature. Massive growth and change in scholarly communication, coinciding with digitalization, have amplified stresses inherent in traditional scientific publishing, as evidenced by overwhelmed editors and reviewers, increased retraction rates, emergence of pseudo-journals, strained library budgets, and debates about the metrics of academic recognition for scholarly achievements. Simultaneously, several open access models are gaining traction and online technologies offer opportunities to augment traditional tasks of scientific publishing, develop integrated discovery services, and establish global and equitable scholarly communication through crowdsourcing, software development, big data management, and machine learning. These rapidly evolving developments raise financial, legal, and ethical dilemmas that require solutions, while successful strategies are difficult to predict. Key challenges and trends are reviewed from the authors' perspective about how to engage the scholarly community in this multifaceted process.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To question the efficacy of 'gold' open access to published articles. BACKGROUND: Open access is unrestricted access to academic, theoretical and research literature that is scholarly and peer-reviewed. Two models of open access exist: 'gold' and 'green'. Gold open access provides everyone with access to articles during all stages of publication, with processing charges paid by the author(s). Green open access involves placing an already published article into a repository to provide unrestricted access, with processing charges incurred by the publisher. DATA SOURCES: This is a discussion paper. REVIEW METHODS: An exploration of the relative benefits and drawbacks of the 'gold' and 'green' open access systems. DISCUSSION: Green open access is a more economic and efficient means of granting open access to scholarly literature but a large number of researchers select gold open access journals as their first choices for manuscript submissions. This paper questions the efficacy of gold open access models and presents an examination of green open access models to encourage nurse researchers to consider this approach. CONCLUSION: In the current academic environment, with increased pressures to publish and low funding success rates, it is difficult to understand why gold open access still exists. Green open access enhances the visibility of an academic's work, as increased downloads of articles tend to lead to increased citations. IMPLICATIONS FOR RESEARCH/PRACTICE: Green open access is the cheaper option, as well as the most beneficial choice, for universities that want to provide unrestricted access to all literature at minimal risk.

ABSTRACT

A partir da experiência de desenvolvimento e administração do RIRC, um projeto realizado pelo LaboMídia/UFSC com o apoio da Rede CEDES/Ministério do Esporte, delimitamos o uso desse repositório digital como objeto de pesquisa de uma dissertação de mestrado. Dessa forma, organizamos esse trabalho com base nas discussões teóricas que envolvem a gestão da informação e do conhecimento no âmbito do esporte e lazer brasileiro, sobretudo, pelos princípios do movimento mundial a favor da promoção do acesso aberto à informação e conhecimento científico. Nesse contexto, investigamos como o RIRC era percebido pelos gestores e pesquisadores da Rede CEDES, durante os anos de 2010 e 2011. A delimitação deste problema de pesquisa criou condições para observar e refletir sobre o compromisso social e político dos integrantes da Rede CEDES em organizar e disponibilizar as produções dessa ação ministerial. Sendo assim, descrevemos, analisamos e refletimos sobre a percepção dos integrantes da Rede CEDES em relação ao RIRC, no escopo da gestão da informação e do conhecimento em esporte e lazer. Realizamos treze entrevistas com os integrantes da Rede CEDES no período de 19/11/2010 até 14/09/2011 e utilizamos algumas estatísticas do RIRC e da própria rede como dados. Por conta dessa estrutura, esta pesquisa se caracterizou como um estudo de caso qualitativo, entendimento que nos orientou durante a coleta, análise, discussão e interpretação dos dados. Após a construção dos caminhos teóricos e metodológicos definimos quatro eixos de discussão dos dados: a) Contexto sócio-histórico de construção da Rede CEDES; b) O processo de desenvolvimento do RIRC; c) O RIRC como política pública; e d) O RIRC no contexto da cultura participativa. O diálogo entre esses eixos e o referencial teórico fundamenta a apresentação dos achados desta pesquisa, dos quais destacamos inicialmente que o RIRC é percebido pelos integrantes da Rede CEDES entrevistados como uma iniciativa relevante...


From the development and administration experiences of RIRC, a project undertaken by LaboMídia/UFSC with the support of CEDES Network/Ministry of Sports, we delimited the use of this digital repository as an object for research of one master's degree dissertation. Thus, we organize this work based on theoretical discussions that involve the information and the knowledge management in the fields of sport and leisure in Brazil, especially, with the principles of the worldwide movement that emphasizes the promotion of open access to scientific information and knowledge. In this context, we investigated how the RIRC was perceived by managers and researchers of the CEDES Network during the first year of the system's operation. The delimitation of this research's problem, created conditions to observe and to ponder over the social and political commitment of the CEDES Network's members, to organize and to make the results of this action accessible. Therefore, we describe, analyze and reflect on the perception of this CEDES Network members in relation to RIRC, in the scope of the information and knowledge management in sport and leisure. We conducted interviews with thirteen members of the CEDES Network and used some statistics of the RIRC and from CEDES Network as data. Because of this structure, this research is characterized as a qualitative case study, this understanding guided us during the gathering, analysis, discussion and interpretation of data. After the construction of the theoretical and methodological structure, we defined four axes of discussions: a) socio-historical context of the building process of the CEDES Network; b) The development process of the RIRC; c) The RIRC as public policy; and d) The RIRC in context of participatory culture. The dialogue between these axes and the theoretical framework legitimize the purpose behind the presentation of the research's findings, which initially highlight the fact that RIRC...
