Introduction What is Open Access? TriCouncil Open Access Draft Scholars Commons @ Laurier What is Research Data Management? Why does RDM matter to TriCouncil? RDM @ Laurier

Open access (OA) is the free availability of scholarly journal publications over the Internet. OA has the following characteristics: It applies to royalty-free literature, for which

authors receive no direct financial compensation. It is free of price barriers, such as subscriptions,

licensing fees, pay-per-view fees. It is generally considered to also be free of

permission barriers, such as most copyright and licensing restrictions (although OA does require that proper attribution of works be given to authors).

Author-pays model Subsidized model Mixed models

Presentation Notes
1. Author-pays model- Publishers charge either the author or author’s institution a fee to publish an article in their journal. For example, BioMedCentral. 2. Subsidized model- government/society grants or membership fees cover the costs of publishing. For example, Canada’s National Research Council journals. NRC journals are free to all Canadians, although a subscription is required for those outside of Canada. 3. Mixed models- there are numerous journals that use a mixture of funding models. For example, the Canadian Medical Association Journals. OA is not a business model and it is not a license

Cost-effective Access to research No price or

permission barriers Authors retain rights

Benefits Questions? What is the cost? Profits? Business

model? Investment? Public understanding

of science? Who has access? Quality?

5. Policy Scope This policy applies only to peer-reviewed journal

publications. Book chapters, reports, monographs, editorials, or conference proceedings arising from Agency-funded research are not currently covered under this policy.

Option #1: Grant recipients submit their manuscript to a journal that offers immediate open access to published articles, or offers open access to published articles within 12 months.

Option #2: Grant recipients archive the final peer-reviewed full-text manuscript in a digital archive where it will be freely accessible within 12 months (e.g., institutional repository or discipline-based repository). It is the responsibility of the grant recipient to determine which publishers allow authors to retain copyright and/or allow authors to archive journal publications in accordance with funding agency policies.

Presentation Notes
CIHR already doing this. Only applies to research after the implementation date (next fall). Only applies to NSERC, SSHRC and CIHR funded research. Only applies to peer reviewed journal publications The Agencies consider the cost of publishing in open access journals to be an eligible expense under the Use of Grant Funds. Grant recipients must acknowledge Agency contributions in all peer-reviewed publications, quoting the funding reference number.

Research Data Management (RDM) combines technology, services, expertise, and policy to support the collection, access, use, and preservation of data through the research lifecycle.

A repository for research data that takes care of ongoing data management and good archival practices, while researchers can share, keep control of and get recognition for their data. Supports the sharing of research data with a persistent data citation, and enables reproducible research.
