On My Mind1. The Inevitability of Open Access2. Transformation of Collections

The Inevitability of Open AccessOpen-access (OA) literature is digital, online,free of charge, and free of most copyright andlicensing restrictions. OA removes pricebarriers (subscriptions, licensing fees, pay-per-view fees) and permission barriers (mostcopyright and licensing restrictions). – Peter Suberhttp://www.earlham.edu/~peters/fos/overview.htm

The Inevitability of Open Access1993 – 20 OA journals publishing 247 articles2000 – 741 OA journals publishing 35,519 articles2005 – 2,837 OA journals publishing 90,720 articles2009 – 4,767 OA journals publishing 191,851 articlesMikael Laakso, Patrik Welling, Helena Bukvova, Linus Nyman, Bo-Christer Bjork, and Turid Hedlund, “TheDevelopment of Open Access Journal Publishing from 1993 to 2009,” PLos ONE 6(6): 2011 e20961.doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0020961.

The Inevitability of Open Access• Open Access is a disruptive innovation (Clayton Christensen) – New technology – New business model – Starts out as an inferior product – Improves over time and its advantages make it dominant – Adoption follows an S-curve not a straight line

The Inevitability of Open Access 100%% of Market using Innovation 0% Time

The Inevitability of Open Access• Good for libraries because scholarly journals will not eat up our budget Between 1975 and 2005 the average cost of journals in chemistry and physics rose from $76.84 to $1,879.56. In the same period, the cost of a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline rose from 55 cents to $1.82. If the gallon of gas had increased in price at the same rate as chemistry and physics journals over this period it would have reached $12.43 in 2005, and would be over $14.50 today.

The Inevitability of Open Access• Good for scholars because their work will be available to all who can use it, and their reputations will be enhanced• Good for the public because scholarship won’t be locked up in libraries

The Inevitability of Open Access• Bad for established publishers – I don’t care• Libraries not part of the delivery system• Libraries should support OA on the production side – Advance in Social Work – Indiana Libraries – Umbrella

The Inevitability of Open Access• Policy on author fees – who pays?• Deposit mandate or not?

Transformation of Collections

Transformation of Collections1. The digitization of content

Transformation of Collections2. The development of print repositories

Opportunity Costs of Print Collections $5.00 to $13.10 $28.77 $50.98 to $68.43 $141.89Life cycle cost based on 3% discount rate. From Paul N. Courant and Matthew “Buzzy” Nielsen, “On the Cost of Keeping a Book,”in The Idea of Order: Transforming Research Collections for 21st Century Scholarship, CLIR, June 2010, available at:http://www.clir.org/pubs/abstract/pub147abst.html

Transformation of Collections3. The development of e-readers and print-on- demand publishing

Transformation of Collections4. The growth of open access Figure 3: Pace of Substitution of Direct Gold OA for Subscription Journals (normal scale) 100.0% 90.0% 80.0% 70.0% 60.0% 50.0% 40.0% 30.0% 20.0% 10.0% 0.0% 2000 2002 2004 2006 2008 2010 2012 2014 2016 2018 2020 2022 2024 Laakso, et. al.

Transformation of Collections5. The challenges to establish academic publishing organizations

Transformation of Collections6. The growth new forms of scholarship based on openness and social productivity

Openness (from Gideon Burton)1. Open Access2. Open Review3. Open Dialogue4. Open Process5. Open Formats6. Open DataGideon Burton, “Scholarly Communications must be Open,” August 25, 2009 at:http://www.academicevolution.com/2009/08/scholarly-communications-must-transform-2.html

Openness (from Gideon Burton)“It comes down to this: the more academiawishes to enjoy the benefits of the digitalmedium, the less it can hold on to restrictiveand closed practices in theproduction, vetting, dissemination, andarchiving of information.”Gideon Burton, “Scholarly Communications must be Open,” August 25, 2009 at:http://www.academicevolution.com/2009/08/scholarly-communications-must-transform-2.html

Transformation of Collections1. Deconstruct legacy print collections2. Move from item-by-item book selection to purchase-on-demand and subscriptions3. Manage the transition to open access journal collections

Transformation of Collections5. Focus on curating unique items6. Develop new mechanisms for funding national infrastructure
