Scholarly Communications:
Placing your article and your
author’s rights
Agenda
 This workshop will cover resources to help you
determine where to place your articles (what journals
publish in your area and how can you evaluate their
quality)
 Your rights as an author and strategies for retaining
them when you publish.
 Some considerations in open access publishing
Finding a journal in your field
 Directories
 Ulrich’s International Periodicals Directory
 Cabells Directories (PSU Library subscribes to the Accounting;
Economics & Finance; Management; Marketing; Educational
Curriculum & Methods; Educational Psychology &
Administration; Educational Technology & Library Science
directories)
 Magazines for Libraries (Z6941 .K2 )
Finding a journal in your field
 Consult the list of publications in the appropriate
disciplinary I&A database(s)
 Sometimes found through a link in the information about the
database
 Sometimes find through a Google search
Finding a journal in your field
 Consult the list of publications in the appropriate
disciplinary I&A database(s)
 Sometimes find through a Google search
Finding a journal in your field
 “By Hand”
Physical browsing of the library shelves in appropriate call number
ranges
Keyword searches in the most appropriate disciplinary database and
look for journals that come up frequently in your result sets
Browsing of journal archives by subject area (e.g. Project Muse, JSTOR,
Sage Journals Online, ScienceDirect (Elsevier), Wiley Online Library,
Taylor and Francis)
Evaluating Journals
 Journal Citation Reports (JCR) – One of the
Library’s subscribed databases; provides impact
factor for mainstream academic/research journals.
 Eigenfactor – www.eigenfactor.org
 Scimago - http://www.scimagojr.com/
 Google Scholar Citation metrics
Evaluating journals: Impact Factor
 In the early 1960’s, the Institute for Scientific
Information (eventually acquired by Thomson
Reuters) developed metrics for ranking most highly
cited journals
 Their measure is known as the Impact factor
 Explanation of the metrics: http://bit.ly/nt0glO
Evaluating journals: Impact Factor
 # of citations to articles in journal x during year
# of articles published in journal x in past two
years
 1.0 means that, on average, the articles
published one or two year ago have been cited
one time.
Evaluating Journals: Eigenfactor
 www.eigenfactor.org
 If a researcher were to go to the library and pick up a
random journal article and then randomly follow a
cited reference in that article, how much of the time
would they be going to X journal. That’s X journal’s
eigenfactor.
Evaluating Journals: Scimago
 Developed by the major STM publisher Elsevier from
analytics harvested from Elsevier’s Scopus database
 http://www.scimagojr.com/
 A measure of both times cited and prestige of
journals from which the citations come.
What to do when no journal-level metrics?
 The hail mary pass:
 Is the journal at least listed in Ulrich’s?
 Is it indexed in disciplinary databases ?
Open Access – things to know
 Definition:
“Open-access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of
charge, and free of most copyright and licensing
restrictions. What makes it possible is the internet
and the consent of the author or copyright-holder.”
From Peter Suber’s A Very Brief Introduction to Open Access
http://www.earlham.edu/~peters/fos/brief.htm
Budapest Open Access Initiative
 "By 'open access' to this literature, we mean its free
availability on the public internet, permitting any users to
read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or
link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for
indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them
for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or
technical barriers other than those inseparable from
gaining access to the internet itself. The only constraint
on reproduction and distribution, and the only role for
copyright in this domain, should be to give authors
control over the integrity of their work and the right to be
properly acknowledged and cited."
http://www.soros.org/openaccess/read.shtml
(February 14, 2002)
OA benefits for authors
 Numerous studies have found that open access
availability increases number of downloads and
citations
 Citations occur more quickly than with a traditional
publication cycle
 Increasingly the expectation of grant funders
Open access - colors
Gold OA -
Authors publish in an open access journal that
provides immediate OA to all of its articles on the
publisher's website..
(Hybrid open access journals provide Gold OA only for
those individual articles for which their authors (or
their author's institution or funder) pay an OA
publishing fee.) Examples of OA publishers are BioMed
Central and the Public Library of Science
Open Access – Gold
 Various business models
 Most famous is “author pays”
Gold OA – thoughfully choose
 At the very least the publisher should be a member of the
Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association.
oaspa.org
 Consider comments on Jeffrey Beall’s site ‘Scholarly
Open Access: Critical Analysis of Scholarly Open-Access
Publishing”
aka “Beall’s list”
 A very useful assessment list from the Gavia Libraria
blog -
http://bit.ly/INSTH3
Elements to consider: Communications practices;
publisher's stable of publications; production values;
people: editors, editorial boards, authors; business model
GreenOA
Authors publish in any journal and then self-
archive a version of the article for free public use in
their institutional repository (e.g. PDXScholar), in a
central repository (such as PubMed Central), or on
some other OA website.
Open Access - Green
Open Access – Green
 What is deposited is the peer-reviewed postprint –
either the author's refereed, revised final draft or the
publisher's version of record (if allowed by
publisher).
 For institutions which have adopted mandates,
frequently the requirement for deposit is this
author’s final version
Your rights as an author
 Make copies
 Distribute
 Make derivative works
 Public performance/public display
Retaining your rights
 READ the Copyright Transfer Agreement!!!!
A very different CTA
 ASSIGNMENT OF COPYRIGHT
1. In consideration of the publication of your Article and subject to
the provisions of the accompanying publishing agreement
information form, you assign to us with full title guarantee all rights
of copyright and related rights in your Article. So that there is no
doubt, this assignment includes the assignment of the rights (i) to
publish, reproduce, distribute, display and store the Article
worldwide in all forms, formats and media now known or as
developed in the future, including print, electronic and digital
forms, (ii) to translate the Article into other languages, create
adaptations, summaries or extracts of the Article or other derivative
works based on the Article and all provisions elaborated in 1(i)
above shall apply in these respects, and (iii) to sub-license all such
rights to others.
Another copyright agreement
 I/We hereby assign world-wide copyright of the Manuscript named
above (the Work) in all forms of media, whether now known or
hereafter developed, to the publisher, xxxxx. I/We understand that
xxxxx will act on my/our behalf to publish, reproduce, distribute
and transmit the Work and will authorise other reputable third
parties (such as document delivery services) to do the same,
ensuring access to and maximum dissemination of the Work.
 This assignment of copyright to xxxxx is done so on the
understanding that permission from xxxxx is not required for
me/us to reproduce, republish or distribute copies of the Work in
whole or in part. I/We will ensure that all such copies carry a notice
of copyright ownership and reference to the original publication.
I/We will not deposit the final version of the Work into a subject or
institutional repository until the Work has been published by
Emerald either online or in print.
Scholar's Copyright Addendum Engine
 http://scholars.sciencecommons.org/
 Step 1: Sign your publisher’s copyright transfer or publication agreement
when you submit your final manuscript for publication with the following
statement written above your signature: “subject to attached
amendment”
 Step 2: Attach the amendment you generate, with the information filled
in and your signature on the bottom.
 Step 3: Send both to publisher.
 Step 4: Print out and extra copy of the addendum
 Step 5: Keep all correspondence with the editor and publisher

  • 1. S A R A H B E A S L E Y S C H O L A R L Y C O M M U N I C A T I O N C O O R D I N A T O R P O R T L A N D S T A T E U N I V E R S I T Y L I B R A R Y F E B R U A R Y 1 3 , 2 0 1 4 Scholarly Communications: Placing your article and your author’s rights
  • 2. Agenda  This workshop will cover resources to help you determine where to place your articles (what journals publish in your area and how can you evaluate their quality)  Your rights as an author and strategies for retaining them when you publish.  Some considerations in open access publishing
  • 3. Finding a journal in your field  Directories  Ulrich’s International Periodicals Directory  Cabells Directories (PSU Library subscribes to the Accounting; Economics & Finance; Management; Marketing; Educational Curriculum & Methods; Educational Psychology & Administration; Educational Technology & Library Science directories)  Magazines for Libraries (Z6941 .K2 )
  • 4. Finding a journal in your field  Consult the list of publications in the appropriate disciplinary I&A database(s)  Sometimes found through a link in the information about the database  Sometimes find through a Google search
  • 5. Finding a journal in your field  Consult the list of publications in the appropriate disciplinary I&A database(s)  Sometimes find through a Google search
  • 6. Finding a journal in your field  “By Hand” Physical browsing of the library shelves in appropriate call number ranges Keyword searches in the most appropriate disciplinary database and look for journals that come up frequently in your result sets Browsing of journal archives by subject area (e.g. Project Muse, JSTOR, Sage Journals Online, ScienceDirect (Elsevier), Wiley Online Library, Taylor and Francis)
  • 7. Evaluating Journals  Journal Citation Reports (JCR) – One of the Library’s subscribed databases; provides impact factor for mainstream academic/research journals.  Eigenfactor – www.eigenfactor.org  Scimago - http://www.scimagojr.com/  Google Scholar Citation metrics
  • 8. Evaluating journals: Impact Factor  In the early 1960’s, the Institute for Scientific Information (eventually acquired by Thomson Reuters) developed metrics for ranking most highly cited journals  Their measure is known as the Impact factor  Explanation of the metrics: http://bit.ly/nt0glO
  • 9. Evaluating journals: Impact Factor  # of citations to articles in journal x during year # of articles published in journal x in past two years  1.0 means that, on average, the articles published one or two year ago have been cited one time.
  • 10. Evaluating Journals: Eigenfactor  www.eigenfactor.org  If a researcher were to go to the library and pick up a random journal article and then randomly follow a cited reference in that article, how much of the time would they be going to X journal. That’s X journal’s eigenfactor.
  • 11. Evaluating Journals: Scimago  Developed by the major STM publisher Elsevier from analytics harvested from Elsevier’s Scopus database  http://www.scimagojr.com/  A measure of both times cited and prestige of journals from which the citations come.
  • 12. What to do when no journal-level metrics?  The hail mary pass:  Is the journal at least listed in Ulrich’s?  Is it indexed in disciplinary databases ?
  • 13. Open Access – things to know  Definition: “Open-access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. What makes it possible is the internet and the consent of the author or copyright-holder.” From Peter Suber’s A Very Brief Introduction to Open Access http://www.earlham.edu/~peters/fos/brief.htm
  • 14. Budapest Open Access Initiative  "By 'open access' to this literature, we mean its free availability on the public internet, permitting any users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself. The only constraint on reproduction and distribution, and the only role for copyright in this domain, should be to give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly acknowledged and cited." http://www.soros.org/openaccess/read.shtml (February 14, 2002)
  • 15. OA benefits for authors  Numerous studies have found that open access availability increases number of downloads and citations  Citations occur more quickly than with a traditional publication cycle  Increasingly the expectation of grant funders
  • 16. Open access - colors Gold OA - Authors publish in an open access journal that provides immediate OA to all of its articles on the publisher's website.. (Hybrid open access journals provide Gold OA only for those individual articles for which their authors (or their author's institution or funder) pay an OA publishing fee.) Examples of OA publishers are BioMed Central and the Public Library of Science
  • 17. Open Access – Gold  Various business models  Most famous is “author pays”
  • 18. Gold OA – thoughfully choose  At the very least the publisher should be a member of the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association. oaspa.org  Consider comments on Jeffrey Beall’s site ‘Scholarly Open Access: Critical Analysis of Scholarly Open-Access Publishing” aka “Beall’s list”  A very useful assessment list from the Gavia Libraria blog - http://bit.ly/INSTH3 Elements to consider: Communications practices; publisher's stable of publications; production values; people: editors, editorial boards, authors; business model
  • 19. GreenOA Authors publish in any journal and then self- archive a version of the article for free public use in their institutional repository (e.g. PDXScholar), in a central repository (such as PubMed Central), or on some other OA website. Open Access - Green
  • 20. Open Access – Green  What is deposited is the peer-reviewed postprint – either the author's refereed, revised final draft or the publisher's version of record (if allowed by publisher).  For institutions which have adopted mandates, frequently the requirement for deposit is this author’s final version
  • 21. Your rights as an author  Make copies  Distribute  Make derivative works  Public performance/public display
  • 22. Retaining your rights  READ the Copyright Transfer Agreement!!!!
  • 23. A very different CTA  ASSIGNMENT OF COPYRIGHT 1. In consideration of the publication of your Article and subject to the provisions of the accompanying publishing agreement information form, you assign to us with full title guarantee all rights of copyright and related rights in your Article. So that there is no doubt, this assignment includes the assignment of the rights (i) to publish, reproduce, distribute, display and store the Article worldwide in all forms, formats and media now known or as developed in the future, including print, electronic and digital forms, (ii) to translate the Article into other languages, create adaptations, summaries or extracts of the Article or other derivative works based on the Article and all provisions elaborated in 1(i) above shall apply in these respects, and (iii) to sub-license all such rights to others.
  • 24. Another copyright agreement  I/We hereby assign world-wide copyright of the Manuscript named above (the Work) in all forms of media, whether now known or hereafter developed, to the publisher, xxxxx. I/We understand that xxxxx will act on my/our behalf to publish, reproduce, distribute and transmit the Work and will authorise other reputable third parties (such as document delivery services) to do the same, ensuring access to and maximum dissemination of the Work.  This assignment of copyright to xxxxx is done so on the understanding that permission from xxxxx is not required for me/us to reproduce, republish or distribute copies of the Work in whole or in part.

Editor's Notes

  1. This is the powerpoint from a workshop that was part of the PSU Library 13-14 faculty workshop series.
  2. Ulrichs -- Provides bibliographic, pricing, scope and access information for journals. You can see if a journal is peer reviewed, where it’s published, whether and where it is indexed, its subscription cost, etc. Searchable by subject, keyword, LC call number, publisher, place of publication, etc. Do an advanced search; on that screen click the more limiters button to see more ways to focus your results; use the subject area labels (you can also try using the subject keyword search and type a keyword into the search box), and other relevant limiters such as: status active, serial type journal, content type academic/scholarly, key feature refereed/peer reviewed. Cabells - Bibliographic, editorial, scope information for included journals. Indicates type of peer review, number of reviewers, duration of review period, article acceptance rates, manuscript specifications. Magazines for Libraries is a standard bibliographic reference work utilized in libraries for collection development work. While it is far from comprehensive in its coverage of academic journals, and it includes information about popular journals likely to be held in public library collections, it provides brief bibliographic essays on the journals in a subject area and annotations for the journals that have been included. If an academic journal is included in MFL, you can know that it is a widely-held journal and this corresponds with its importance.
  3. Examples: Proquest Criminal Justice Periodicals, google search “worldwide political science abstracts”; psycinfo;
  4. There are several prominent metrics systems which provide quantitative measures of a journal’s prominence. Generally they are based on citations patterns, citation counts, citation frequency, and duration information. To find Google Scholar Citation metrics click the metrics link at the top of the window and then choose your category.
  5. The calculation of the impact factor
  6. Scopus is a citation and abstract database covering over 16,000 journals, and millions of web sites, including patents. It also includes citing information for articles.
  7. Presence in Ulrich’s indicates some stability of the journal. Inclusion as a journal indexed in one of the disciplinary databases signals some significance to the journal, some stability, some impact.
  8. Distribution and access methods for the scholarly literature continue to change. One of the most pivotal changes beyond the shift from print to digital is the emergence of open access to the research literature.
  9. Because the business model for OA publishing is different particulary where author’s (or their funding agencies) bear the cost of publication, there can be publishers operating in bad faith. This slide provides pointers and criteria for evaluating them. Beall’s list is somewhat controversial in academic library circles, but you can use the criteria discussed by Gavia Libraria to evaluate publishers you find there.
  10. Green OA represents another approach; you can self-archive your traditionally published articles.
  11. Which means, keep a copy of your final version. Your editor may send you a final version, but you may not have rights to post that on your personal web site or submit it to a repository such as PDXScholar
  12. What makes green oa possible is publisher policy and your self-advocacy; these rights exist for you as an author the moment that something becomes fixed in a tangible medium. Often a journal publisher will ask you to sign a copyright transfer agreement in which you assign these rigths to the publisher. Think twice about that before you sign. Ask yourself what rights you want to negotiate to retain.
  13. In consideration of the publication of your Article and subject to the provisions of the accompanying publishing agreement information form, you assign to us with full title guarantee all rights of copyright and related rights in your Article. So that there is no doubt, this assignment includes the assignment of the rights (i) to publish, reproduce, distribute, display and store the Article worldwide in all forms, formats and media now known or as developed in the future, including print, electronic and digital forms, (ii) to translate the Article into other languages, create adaptations, summaries or extracts of the Article or other derivative works based on the Article and all provisions elaborated in 1(i) above shall apply in these respects, and (iii) to sub-license all such rights to others. In the event the Article is not accepted and published by us or is withdrawn by you before acceptance by us, the assignment of copyright set out in this agreement shall cease to be effective and all rights assigned by you to us in relation to the Article shall revert to you.
