OA Resources
• Journals/articles: green, gold, hybrid, DOAJ • Books: DOAB, OAPEN, Google Books• Databases: PubMed Central, BioMed Central, ERIC• Data: gROADS, World Bank, data.gov, Dryad• Institutional repositories: Digital Commons Network, OpenDOAR

Library OA Management:
• Catalogs• ERMs/link
resolvers• Discovery
Systems• Guides/Lists
![Page 7: OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open Access Resources](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061114/546237a0b4af9f621c8b4646/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Challenges for libraries
Article vs. Journal (piece vs. container)
Resources incorrectly identified as OA
Bad/broken linksGeneral inconsistency
Insufficient tools to manage OA
Lack of sufficient metadata…
![Page 8: OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open Access Resources](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061114/546237a0b4af9f621c8b4646/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
OA Metadata & Indicators
The Problem:Inconsistent information b/n publishers, vendors, link resolvers, libraries• Lack of a consistent visual icon• No standard descriptive language to indicate OA• No standard metadata elements• Lack of clear reuse rights
Importance: metadata enables discovery, linking, rights management, etc.
![Page 9: OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open Access Resources](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061114/546237a0b4af9f621c8b4646/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Visual OA Icon
The most recognizable OA icon was created by PLOS.
However, there is no official OA logo and publishers are free to employ whatever logo suits them.

Nature Publishing Group OA metadata <meta name=”access” content=”Yes” />
Springer OA metadata

Publishers currently provide “open access” articles with various use and re-use terms.
Some favor Creative Commons licenses, while others use proprietary licenses.
(NISO RP-22-201x)
Aggregators, repositories, and service providers have no standard for identifying articles that can be legitimately harvested.

Readers have trouble figuring out what they can and cannot do with specific articles.

NISO: OA Metadata & Indicators Working Group• Libraries, publishers, organizations represented• Mechanisms for transmitting two key pieces of info:
• Free-to-read <free_to_read>• License reference <license_ref>
• NISO decided not to create a logo to be displayed
Approach provides framework for conveying essential information that addresses most common use cases.

<free_to_read> tag
• Viewable by any user without payment or authentication• No statement about re-use rights or restrictions• System would decide what visual indicator to show based on tag• Start and end dates accommodate models where content is free-to-
read for a period of time or after a particular date.<free_to_read start_date="2013-02-03" end_date="2013-10-03"/>
![Page 18: OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open Access Resources](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061114/546237a0b4af9f621c8b4646/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
<license_ref> tag
• Includes a stable identifier expressed as an HTTP URI (URL)• Points to a human and/or machine readable license• License terms are not expressed in the metadata itself• Start_date attribute expresses how usage rights change over time• No corresponding end_date attribute; could introduce ambiguities• Neither the start_date attribute nor the license URI provide any
technical mean of enforcement
![Page 19: OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open Access Resources](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061114/546237a0b4af9f621c8b4646/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Mechanisms for distributing metadata• Creation and population of metadata elements to become part of
standard editorial workflow• Integral part of feeds to CrossRef• Included on hosting websites• Delivered in content feeds to third parties; A&I services• Metadata embedded in content itself: html META tags & PDF files• Within alerting channels, such as e-ToCs and RSS feeds• Work to incorporate into existing formats: ONIX, RDF, OAI-PMH, DC

When in doubt, create a survey
• Goals:• Determine current state of practice• Identify areas for improvement
• At this point, how are librarians managing OA resources for their users, and what challenges do they face?
![Page 22: OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open Access Resources](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061114/546237a0b4af9f621c8b4646/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Main Questions
• What systems are libraries using?• Are those systems meeting needs?• What issues are libraries facing?• How do librarians view OA in relation to
their collections?

9 cont. Strengths
• CORAL is flexible, we can track free resources just like we can track paid resources; we can create unique workflows for OA resources, if we need to• It has all the big sites, DOAJ, Hindawi, etc. (OCLC WorldShare License
Manager)• Major strength is large number of OA resources we can subscribe to
(Serials Solutions)

9 cont. Weaknesses
• It is difficult to use and very challenging (EBSCO ERM Essentials)• Incomplete; not always accurate / up-to-date (SerialsSolutions)• Cannot perform a search using "open access resources" as a search
category (SerialsSolutions)• The major weakness is the ERM has no integration with databases in
discovery systems (ERMes)

11 cont. Strengths
• Linking directly to the article without needing to jump through too many hoops (Innovative Interfaces WebBridge LR)• We don't have to try to track individual OA journals ourselves
(SerialsSolutions)• It's easy to identify the free targets in SFX b/c Ex Libris includes "FREE"
or "OPEN_ACCESS" in the target name (SFX)• Unlike the ERM we use, the management of the link resolver is
undertaken by the crowd in addition to us. So it is less work for us (SFX)• We can prioritize our linking so that the most reliable (ie paid)
resources would be chosen over OA links (EBSCO LinkSource)
![Page 38: OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open Access Resources](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061114/546237a0b4af9f621c8b4646/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
11 cont. Weaknesses
• Lack of information in the knowledge base regarding when these OA resources move/cease - when they become subscription based (SFX)• Not always up to date and sometimes the link does not work (III)• Doesn't always separate out the hybrid journals; it's all or nothing as
far as activation goes (SerialsSolutions)• The OA collections are not managed by the vendor, which takes away
the biggest benefit of a knowledge base for us and for other smaller libraries (that the kb vendor will automatically update the default holdings and titles for us) (SerialsSolutions)

13 cont. Strengths
• Worldcat local allows us to automatically provide links to all open access collections available in OCLC.• It is aware of a large number of OA resources, more than we have in
our ERM (Summon)• There is a greater number of open access resources that can be made
known to our user than from our link resolver (WorldCat Local)
![Page 42: OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open Access Resources](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061114/546237a0b4af9f621c8b4646/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
13 cont. Weaknesses
• Many of them are not relevant to us, either because of language, or b/c the resources are not full text (EBSCO Discovery Service)• A major weakness is the fact that resources are 100% on or 100% off,
we can't select which individual titles are included (Primo)• Cannot search solely for OA resources (WorldCat Local)
![Page 43: OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open Access Resources](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061114/546237a0b4af9f621c8b4646/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

15 cont. Responses
• The library has no control of OA resources at all. • Assessing quality, discovering where they are, explaining OA
publication to patrons• Hybrid OA is a nightmare.• I have recently done a study of our e-access problems and 15% of
them directly involve OA resources.• No policies in place for managing them/providing access• Navigation on journal sites can be challenging• Having someone to manage it. I am already spread too thin

16 cont. Responses
• Harry Potter, the Elder wand and the help of Dobby - the free elf• It would be easier if Serials Solutions would distinguish them more
clearly, in a separate search perhaps• Hybrid OA journal publishers would need to make data available
about the OA part of their journals so that libraries could link to that content.• A librarian position that could focus on this.• Standardized metadata for discovery• Removal of the partial OA category altogether.

17 cont. Responses
• Resources that are only partially OA or that convert from OA to requiring a purchase. • Foreign language collections• Academic, governmental, intergovernmental agencies• Traditional journal publishers that also offer OA publishing options.

18 cont. Responses
• As library budgets shrink, we must find ways to provide access to resources. Some of the OA resources are essential, high quality resources in their fields; others might be just predatory journals out to get some money from authors. But the library's role is to enable our users to access and discover resources; OA or purchased, the patron doesn't care.• I believe it is for some resources. We only work with OA resources
individually selected by our librarians, so we do not need to deal with all OA resources.• not really that much ... they can find them when they click on links
anyway.

• Metadata about Author paid content would be wonderful if link resolvers could then facilitate linking to this content. DOIs assigned to OA articles would also improve linking.• It would be great if the metadata were regularly reviewed (by an
editor or editorial board ?) and updated to all the link resolvers, OCLC or other cataloging agency.• Central repositories or clearinghouses where OA publishers would list
information about start and end dates, title changes, etc. KB vendors could monitor these listings

25. Would you like to share anything else related to the management of OA resources?• The overblown promise of OA solving the serials pricing crisis has not
materialized• The growing scale and volatility of the marketplace are very
challenging. We're also struggling to determine in which discovery tools to focus our efforts.• I don't think that library or university administrators understand the
real costs related to making these resources accessible over time.• There is a lot of literature on open access, but I haven't yet come
across any truly comprehensive guides for how to include open access resources. Where to find them, how to support access, and how to discern the best resources.

Conclusions…
• NISO standards have potential for improving metadata in the information supply chain• Hybrid OA poses a significant challenge to libraries • Libraries need more granularity in management & discovery systems• OA collections must be curated; accurate; reliable• Crowd-sourced resources such as OAWAL hold promise• Growth of OA has not alleviated the serials crisis, but…• Libraries have important role via information supply chain; feedback
