Valuable statistics on the growth of OA
by Subbiah Arunachalam 03 Oct '14

Friends: Please visit *The Imaginary Journal of Poetic Economics*, dated 1 October 2014, at <http://poeticeconomics.blogspot.in/>. Heather Morrison provides valuable satatistics (all from authentic sources) and tracks the growth year on year of OA journals, repositories, articles, policies, etc. This is a very valuable contribution and is especially useful to people like Gunasekaran and Ramamoorthi Perumal who are researching into matters directly relevant to OA in India.

What can libraries do?
by Subbiah Arunachalam 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

Friends: What can public libraries do? Indeed a great deal. Here is a whole list of over 600 individuals (and some teams) articulating what they would want libraries to do. Please visit: <*https://www.newschallenge.org/challenge/libraries/feedback <https://www.newschallenge.org/challenge/libraries/feedback>*>. Such crowdsourcing can be of great value. In fact, in a way, it is the idea of crowdsourcing citizen science projects have used to advance science. Look at projects like Polymath, Galaxy Zoo, Foldit, and several others. In India, we have the OSDD (Open Source Drug Discovery) project (initiated by Prof. Samir Brahmachari, former Director General of CSIR). I would like to see professional associations in India (ILA, IASLIC, SIS, SLA-India, etc.) pay attention to such activities. Masters level courses in LIS should sensitize students to such issues.

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Iryna Kuchma" <iryna.kuchma(a)eifl.net> Date: Oct 2, 2014 5:59 PM Subject: [EIFL-OA] Please Register Your Institutional OA Policy in ROARMAP To: "Sridhar Gutam" <gutam2000(a)gmail.com> Cc: "EIFL - Open Access program announcement and discussion list" < eifloa(a)lists.eifl.net> [Forwarded message from Stevan Harnad] If your institution has adopted (or upgraded) and OA policy, please register it in ROARMAP <http://roarmap.eprints.org/> to inspire other institutions to adopt and register their OA policies. ROARMAP is also conducting studies, with the help of the data from the new ROAR <http://roar.eprints.org/> database (coming soon) to monitor and record the effectiveness of OA policies in terms of their *deposit rate* (percentage of annual published output that is deposited) and *deposit latency *(when the papers are deposited, relative to publication date). OA Policies differ in their requirements. It is hoped that the comparative data will help institutions that already have an OA policy to monitor and compare its effectiveness with other policy models and will help institutions planning to adopt and OA policy to pick the most effective model.
