28% of the scholarly literature is
OA (19M out of 67M)
Over half of those are “bronze”
– free with no understandable
license
OA articles receive 18% more
citations than average
Awareness of open datasets went up
from om 73% in 2016 to 82% in 2017
Willingness to reuse open datasets
went from 70% to 80%
24% shared for greater impact, 20% for
public benefit, 16% due to a policy
Need alignment, collaboration across
funders, institutions, researchers,
libraries and societies
Culture change begins at home (the
institution) – support, rewards and
training
Funders and institutions must
provide consistent policies, support,
and infrastructure
No half measures (hybrids)
All scientific works freely
available upon publication

Infrastructure is consolidating
just as content did
Still a chance to negotiate better
terms for infrastructure than
were done for content
Is there an opportunity to
reimagine

Top three things you can do make
research more effective:
1. Reward researchers for sharing results before
they are published
2. Offer new channels for early sharing
3. Base tenure, promotion, and funding on rapid,
open, and complete sharing
