This presentation discusses three new tools that we are developing as a result of the OAPEN, OAPEN-NL and OAPEN-UK projects: the Directory of OA Books, CrossMark for OA books and ONIX for OA Books. These new tools are critical resources in verifying the quality of an open access monograph and ensuring its discoverability.
In the humanities and social sciences, books are still a preferred format of scholarly communication. OA books have never received as much attention in the OA debate as OA journals and articles.
However, the number of titles is growing significantly, funding
opportunities are improving and so is the infrastructure for OA
books. This session will explore what has been achieved so far and what needs to be done to further improve the sustainability, awareness and attention for OA books.

University Library (KIB) have taken different approaches on
how to monitor the APC costs at their respective universities.
At SUB the primary source for compiling the costs is the
university’s accounting system, while KIB is investigating if the
starting point could be publication data, from which APC costs
are estimated. In this session the presenters will discuss their
findings, the pros and cons of different approaches, and how
they are striving to gain control of the total cost of publication.

Measuring the Influence of Tag Recommenders on the Indexing Quality in Taggin...Klaas Dellschaft
This presentation is about our paper which was presented at the Hypertext conference 2012. In this paper, we investigate a methodology for measuring the influence of tag recommenders on the indexing quality in collaborative tagging systems. We propose to use the inter-resource consistency as an indicator of indexing quality. The inter-resource consistency measures the degree to which the tag vectors of indexed resources reflect how the users understand the resources. We use this methodology for evaluating how tag recommendations coming from (1) the popular tags at a resource or from (2) the user's own vocabulary influence the indexing quality. We show that recommending popular tags decreases the indexing quality and that recommending the user's own vocabulary increases the indexing quality.

This presentation is about our paper which was presented at the Hypertext conference 2008.
Abstract: In recent literature, several models were proposed for reproducing and understanding the tagging behavior of users. They all assume that the tagging behavior is influenced by the previous tag assignments of other users. But they are only partially successful in reproducing characteristic properties found in tag streams. We argue that this inadequacy of existing models results from their inability to include user’s background knowledge into their model of tagging behavior. This paper presents a generative tagging model that integrates both components, the background knowledge and the influence of previous tag assignments. Our model successfully reproduces characteristic properties of
tag streams. It even explains effects of the user interface on the tag stream.

SwePub is a bibliographic search service, harvesting and offering unified searching of aggregated scientific publication metadata from institutional repositories (IR:s) in Swedish universities and higher education institutions. SwePub has been developed by the National Library of Sweden.
Last year, in response to a government assignment, SwePub released a technical preview of an entirely new service – SwePub Analysis – aimed at researchers and analysts working in the areas of bibliometrics and scientometrics. SwePub Analysis is a bibliometric service enabling users to obtain enriched and validated scientific publication metadata to base their research and analyses on.
SwePub Analysis is built on linked data technologies and, together with data from other research information resources, allows users to query the database to obtain new knowledge concerning research information that would otherwise be difficult to obtain, e.g. richer Open Access information, deeper knowledge of scientific collaboration etcetera.
For the service to be able to provide high quality data, and for users to understand it’s limitations, much effort has been spent on analysing and validating harvested metadata. This enables the service to present data providers with visualised, rich data on which elements are missing or do not meet format specifications and standards. Hopefully this approach will give IR:s incentives to improve data quality.
This presentation outlines the present state of the service and planned development with emphasis on Swepub utilisation of linked data technologies and external data for validation and enrichment. It also contains insights on current developments in improving metadata markup of licenses and open access in order to improve Swedish Open Access statistics for the purposes of reporting.

Presentation on initial findings from the interviews with publishers conducted as part of the OAPEN-UK project. This presentation highlights some of the key pressure points, identifies where workflows need adaptation and presents recommendations on best practice processes to help publishers transition to open access monograph publishing.
Researcher survey
This presentation reports on the findings of our survey of humanities and social science (HSS) researchers. We carried out the survey between February and May 2012, and achieved 690 usable responses. The survey covers issues including attitudes to open access publishing and Creative Commons licensing, researchers’ preferences and priorities as both authors and readers, and their views of the overall aims of the scholarly communications system.
The survey will be used to shape our work in the third year of the OAPEN-UK project, as we begin to consider some of the cross-cutting issues such as licensing regimes, discoverability and formats which are likely to affect an open access business model for HSS monographs.
Annual Benchmarking Survey
One of the questions we aim to answer during the project is how do perceptions of open access monograph publication change among participants during the project? This question relates specifically to the members of our Steering Group and the authors of the titles in the pilot. Through an annual benchmarking survey we will explore if their attitudes and perceptions towards open access publishing change as the project progresses.
Baseline survey
This presentation reports the findings of our baseline survey of steering group members and participating authors to explore the effect that participating in the project has upon their views of open access monograph publishing.
The survey was carried out between November 2011 and February 2012. The next iteration will be carried out in November 2012, once the project participants have seen the first year’s sales and usage data.

Editor's Notes
Good afternoon.OAPEN-UK is a four-year research project that is exploring an OA model for publishing HSS monographs in collaboration with publishers, research funders, learned societies, researchers and institutions. JISC and the AHRC have provided funding for the OAPEN-UK project. The project is exploring open access scholarly monograph publishing in the humanities and social sciences. It is an innovative and highly consultative project – working in an area where little research exists and connecting with all the key stakeholders to identify and discuss concerns, challenges, perceptions and opportunities related to a transition to open access monographs. OAPEN-UK recognises that open access will require changes to current working practice as well as cultural change and that resistance to change is inevitable. By working with each stakeholder and sharing findings between stakeholders, the project promotes understanding and knowledge and enables stakeholders to make informed decisions based on evidence, rather than assumptions.
But today, instead of talking about OAPEN-UK specifically, I thought as I was situated in the ‘New Products’ section of the agenda, that I would talk about some of the new products we are developing as a result of our research findings so far.When I talk about ‘our’ research findings, I am referring to OAPEN-UK, it sister project in the Netherlands OAPEN-NL, the work of the OAPEN Foundation which manages the OAPEN Library and the repository structure it is built upon and of course JISC Collections. Together we are collaborating with publishers, institutions, authors and research funders all across Europe. Three key products we are developing are the Directory of OA Books, CrossMark for OA books and ONIX for OA Books.
We know from our research that there is a perception or concern that OA means lower quality and that researchers also assume that there has been no peer review undertaken with an OA monograph.As well as meeting its primary aim of increasing discoverability, DOAB plays an important role in establishing trust. - Academic books in DOAB shall be available under an Open Access license (such as a Creative Commons license) - Academic books in DOAB shall be subjected to independent and external peer review prior to publication DOAB recently undertook some work with stakeholders to discuss the criteria for inclusion which recommended developments to highlight quality using an icon system, remaining open to other forms of peer review such as open peer review and to remain flexible on licensing but to strive for CC-BY. The directory is an essential component to help researchers and libraries discover and evaluate OA monographs.
The DOAB is a fantastic tool in helping users discover OA content, but until it becomes a natural location for researchers to visit and there are more OA monographs available, we need to also cover the ‘I bought it for my self’ route.This has been a real learning point for us in OAPEN-UK - how do you make sure that a researcher see’s that there is an OA version available when they go to online retailers?

Publisher Webshop:Many publishers have their own webshop and although this may not be a first stop for researchers, we still need to make it clear that there is an OA version available.We have had to work through may issues to ensure that the OA PDF version is clearly marked as OA and that there is no cost associated with it. This has not been easy and we have had occasions where the price has been marked to zero but someone else in the company has seen this and though, oh I will just correct that and thought they were being helpful! But at least in this case, the publisher has some level of control and can work to ensure that the OA version is clearly marked….
But at least in this case, the publisher has some level of control and can work to ensure that the OA version is clearly marked….When it comes to other online retailers such as Amazon, who are set up to sell, it has not been as easy!
Using the ONIX feeds we have inserted a line into them….No linksToo far down the page – not as visible as would likeNot the ideal solution
Another key product we are developing is CrossMark for OA books. CrossRef introduced CrossMark earlier this year for electronic documents, and a number of publishers are already using the system for their articles. CrossRef calls it an ‘identification service’, which ‘sends signal to researchers that publishers are committed to maintaining their scholarly content’. CrossMark is primarily introduced as a way to verify that a version of a document is the most recent and reliable version. Readers use the service by clicking on the CrossMark logos on PDF or HTML documents, and a status box tells them if the document is current or if updates are available. However, CrossMark also provides a record box, which can contain other information about the document. This box can be used to provide a system of quality assurance. The record box could inform users about the usage rights, the peer review process, the publication history. It could also contain information about the research connected to the publication, information about grants, links to connected elements such as research data, etc.
