The document discusses open access and two main ways to achieve it - green open access through self-archiving and gold open access by publishing in open access journals. It provides details on open access mandates and their optimal implementation, as well as evidence that open access articles receive more citations and have greater impact and benefits.

Editor's Notes
- To maximise research access, supplement the existing system: Do as before, but also: Self-archive the preprint in your universityâs Eprint Archive, so every would-be user can access it. Self-archive the postprint in your universityâs Eprint Archive, so every would-be user can access it. Research access is maximized and so research impact is maximized.
- The OA average percentage is calculated in the previous slide, by simply averaging all the fields, in other words, by weighting them all as equally important. However, the average across fields needs to be weighted by the number of papers published annually in each field, and a SCOPUS-weighted analysis (where fields are weighted by their number of documents published in 2007) is a more accurate estimate. As shown in this figure, that puts the current cross-field average for 1998-2006 at about 13% rather than 20%. And the current OA rate is probably about 15%.
- Multiple regression analysis. Here four metrics are tested against citation counts as the criterion.
- In order to explore the evolution of OA advantage over time and by field, we plot the average cumulative number of citations per article as a function of article age, by field, for articles published in 2000. These figures show for each field, the average cumulative number of citations per article for OA and non-OA articles. For fields, as an article gets older, and its cumulative citations grow, its OA advantage grows too. However, this advantage differ in magnitude depending on the field; it is relatively high for Chemistery, Clininical Medecine, Physics and Biomedical Research and is relatively weak in Mathematics, Biology, Social Science and Health.
- - In order to display the OA advantage in a different way and show more graphically how it is distributed across the citation ranges, we calculated the proportions of OA articles at each citation count and compared them to those for NOA articles. - This Figure shows that as the citation count increases, the fraction of the total OA articles at each citation count overtakes the corresponding fraction of the total NOA articles.
