A year into the EC FP7 Post-Grant Open Access Pilot, this presentation delivered at the LIBER Annual Conference 2016 in Helsinki shows the current progress of this funding initiative. This Gold OA Pilot has currently two funding worklines, a main one for APC/BPC payments for post-grant manuscripts arising from finished FP7 projects and an alternative funding mechanism for supporting APC-free OA journals and platforms. Detailed figures are provided for the APC payments made so far, together with a number of findings the initiative has already come upon.
Scaling Usage Statistics across Repositories as an OpenAIRE Analytics Service...OpenAIRE

Usage metrics about scholarly output, such as publications and research data, are one of the measures to assess Open Access impact. The OpenAire 2020 [1] project aims to offer a service that monitors and analyzes usage information, as well as exploits usage metrics like views and downloads, which could be used as complements of bibliometrics and webometrics. In this paper, we present the first step towards the implementation of this service, manifested as a pilot run in a set of repositories, together with some initial results which illustrate the use of the applied methodology.
The presentation we gave at two workshops on Open Access policies organised by EU-funded project PASTEUR4OA on 9 & 10 February 2016 in Brussels. Basically, nothing really new, but this is probably the shortest presentation we have made to present the European Commission mandate for open access in Horizon 2020.

Infrastructure for the Data Revolution: How OpenAIRE supports the EC’s Open ...OpenAIRE
OpenAIRE2020 is an Open Access (OA) infrastructure for research which supports open scholarly communication and access to the research output of European funded projects. With over five years experience of supporting the European Commission’s OA policies, OpenAIRE now has a key role in supporting the EC’s Horizon 2020 Open Data Pilot. OpenAIRE’s community network works to gather research outputs, highlight the OA mandate, and advance open access initiatives at national levels. It has National Open Access Desks in over 30 countries, and operates a European Helpdesk system for all matters concerning open access, copyright and repository interoperability. At the same time, OpenAIRE harvests metadata information from a network of Open Access repositories, data repositories, aggregators and OA journals. It then enriches this metadata by linking people, publications, datasets, projects and funding streams. This interlinked information – which currently encompasses more than 13 million publications and 12 thousand datasets from more than 6 thousand data sources – helps optimise the research process, increasing research visibility, facilitating data sharing and reuse and enabling the monitoring of research impact. This presentation will outline how an infrastructure like OpenAIRE can help turn OA policy into successful implementation.

As service providers and primary code contributors in the Islandora Community, discoverygarden encounters customers who are ingesting, accessing, and storing high volumes of data. For example, a customer who had 150,000 objects in 2012 now has three million objects and expectations to grow to five million in the very short term. This is increasingly common.
As repositories grow in size they can encounter poor performance, particularly during large ingests and derivative generation. To accommodate growing repositories caching mechanisms, infrastructure changes, and code updates are necessary.
The presentation will explore customer case studies that demonstrate interim solutions and the extensive, ongoing research and development to find long-term solutions.

A year an a half into its implementation, the EC post-grant funding initiative for FP7 projects run under the OpenAIRE2020 project is already producing some findings, both in the area of APC-based Gold Open Access and in providing support to APC-free Open Access journals and platforms. While exploring the rather fragmented Open Access landscape across Europe, this presentation will look into the evolution of the multiple parallel strategies for Open Access implementation under the light of the work carried out within this post-grant funding initiative. It's argued that a widespread progress will require support for the different co-existing strategies.

Supporting the Transition towards Open Access: Putting the Researcher at the ...Dagmar M. Meyer
Presentation given at the conference "Academic Publishing in Europe 12: Publishing Ethics: Doing the Right Thing - Doing Things Right (APE 2017)", which took place in Berlin on 17-18 January 2017.
Abstract: The European Research Council (ERC) supports the principle of open access to research results as a fundamental part of its mission. It strongly endorses the policy that informs the OA 2020 initiative for the large-scale transition to open access. As an organization that is governed by scientists, the ERC considers it crucial that this transition take into account the important role of researchers in this context, be it as producers of knowledge, as actors in the review and publication process (within the established system or otherwise), or as users of other researchers’ output. The vast diversity of situations across different research communities makes this a complex and challenging task.
With this backdrop, we will first outline the ERC’s approach towards open access, highlighting some of the bottlenecks in the implementation. We will then discuss a number of initiatives that the ERC has engaged in to support the researchers it funds in opening up their results, and provide a glimpse of some ideas for the future.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

The FP7 Post-Grant Open Access Pilot: An All-Encompassing Gold Open Access Funding Initiative
1. The FP7 Post-Grant Open Access Pilot:
An All-Encompassing Gold Open Access
Funding Initiative
Pablo de Castro
Open Access Project Officer
LIBER
2. A few introductory remarks
OpenAIRE2020 - Overview
• The EC FP7 Post-Grant Open Access Pilot is a funding initiative aiming to
cover Open Access publishing fees for researchers involved in finished FP7
projects;
• Post-grant funding a new concept – no similar funding initiatives, even if its
policy is well-aligned. It takes time for researchers and institutions to get to
know the rules;
• Launching it in the middle of a research framework programme is risky, but it
makes possible a very useful dialogue with researchers;
• The initiative sits midway between researchers, libraries and publishers – with
opportunities to explore and bridge the gaps;
• International partners (plus the OpenAIRE NOAD network) allow interaction
with national-level initiatives.
4. What is this FP7 Post-Grant Pilot?
'REGULAR' FUNDING MECHANISM
• The EC FP7 Post-Grant Open Access Pilot provides funding to cover the OA publishing
fees for publications arising from completed FP7 projects
• 4 million euros have been made available by the EC to fund the OA “post-grant”
publications of over 8,000 completed FP7 projects
• The Pilot will last for a maximum of two years (i.e. until Apr 30th, 2017) or until its
budget is exhausted
ALTERNATIVE FUNDING MECHANISM
• Funding available for APC-free Open Access journals/platforms that have published
articles resulting from FP7 projects
5. Main Policy Guidelines
• The FP7 project should have finished by the time the funding is requested, but no
longer than two years ago;
• A maximum of three publications will be funded per eligible FP7 project as a means
to ensure a fair distribution of the funding across projects;
• Funding requests must be submitted once the publication has been accepted;
• Publications submitted to hybrid journals will not be funded, but only those accepted
at fully Open Access journals;
• The following funding caps apply to this funding: €2,000 for research articles and
€6,000 for books (monographs/edited volumes);
• The final version of the funded output must be deposited in an OpenAIRE-compliant
Open Access repository;
6. EC Gold Open Access Pilot Mission
OpenAIRE2020 - Overview
The EC FP7 Post-Grant Open Access Pilot will have been
successful if:
• In two years time the whole or a significantly large share of its
budget has been disbursed in a reasonably balanced way
across projects, disciplines, countries and business models
• The initiative has collected an insight on the evolving OA
publishing landscape that allows it to provide guidelines
for a roadmap for sustainable Open Access publishing.
7. The OpenAIRE system
• OpenAIRE System for collecting and processing funding requests available at
https://postgrantoapilot.openaire.eu/.
• Information requested on:
- Researcher (at registration time)
- FP7 project
- Publication (article/journal/APC)
- Accounting (invoicing)
•Multiple-step workflow to process funding requests:
conditional approval – formal approval – payment.
•Built-in live reporting module
9. 'Alternative' funding mechanism
• Gold Open Access DOES NOT MEAN Article or Book Processing Charges;
• Two thirds of the journals in the DOAJ charge no APCs;
• The Alternative Funding Mechanism will fund APC-free OA journals for improving
their publishing workflows;
• Call for proposals open since early May until June 30th
, 2016: “Are you publishing
your APC-free Open Access Journal on a shoestring?”, https://www.openaire.eu/are-you-publishing-
your-apc-free-oa-journal-on-a-shoestring;
• A total of €200k funding available for up to 12 funding applications from APC-free OA
journals or platforms;
• Technical improvements will be funded such as: systematically collecting
funder/project information, becoming OpenAIRE compliant, issuing DOIs, producing
XML versions of the articles;
• Technical improvement plan & budget for the bid to be submitted to
postgrantpilotinfo@openaire.eu before June 30th
.
10. Gold OA Pilot – results so far
Figures as of June 15th, 2016
391 journal articles
25 books
9 book chapters
1 conf procs
421 approved funding requests
6th Pilot progress report, https://blogs.openaire.eu/?p=1082
14. A few findings thus far
1. Figures are rather low – it's difficult to disseminate the funding
initiative directly to researchers. Libraries have a key role here:
where the Library has helped, results are far better.
2. Strong bias towards Western / North-Western Europe. Early
explanations: awareness of Open Access among researchers,
strength of Open Access dissemination networks, shift of
corresponding authors towards sources of funding
15. A few findings thus far
3. Funding distribution NOT RELATED to the existence of well-
established Gold Open Access funding workflows: countries like
Spain and Italy are good counter-examples.
4. Low awareness among researchers and libraries of the
importance of the funding and project information, which is key
for this initiative.
16. A few findings thus far
5. Average APC fee paid remains stable so far despite a
significant number of maximum payments for APCs above the
€2,000 funding cap
17. A few findings thus far
6. Researchers are (mostly) loving the initiative. Libraries not that
much (as a rule). Some libraries and/or research offices are
however able to see and exploit the opportunity it means for
highlighting its research support role,
