This is a subversive proposal that could radically hasten that day. It is applicable only to refereed scientific and scholarly journal articles (but that is the lion's share of the research corpus anyway), a body of work for which authors (researchers) do not and never have expected to SELL their words. They want only to PUBLISH them, that is, to <a href="http://opcit.eprints.org/oacitation-biblio.html">reach the eyes of their peers</a>, their fellow scientists and scholars the world over, so that they can build on one another's work in that collaborative enterprise called learned inquiry. <br /> &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;For centuries, it was only out of reluctant necessity that authors of research journal articles made the Faustian bargain to allow a price-tag to be erected as a barrier between their work and its intended readership because that was the only way to make their work public in the era when paper publication (and its substantial real expenses) were the only way to do so. But today there is another way, and that is by depositing it in the author's <a href="http://www.dlib.org/dlib/october00/10inbrief.html#HARNAD">institution's online repository</a>: <br /> &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;If every research institution in the world this very day established a globally accessible online institutional repository for every piece of refereed research output from this day forward, and if all research institutions and research funders <a href="http://www.eprints.org/openaccess/policysignup/">mandated</a> (required) that the final, refereed drafts of all their research output must be deposited in the repository immediately upon acceptance for publication, the long-heralded transition to free online access would follow almost immediately. <br /> &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;The only factor standing in the way of this transition at the moment is the fact that peer review happens to be implemented today almost exclusively by journal publishers. If all scholars' refereed final drafts were universally available to all scholars online, institutions could cancel their journal subscriptions and refereed journal publishers would then have to <a href="http://eprints.soton.ac.uk/265753/">restructure themselves</a>, phasing out their obsolete print and online editions, access-provision and archiving and their costs, and <a href="http://www.nature.com/nature/debates/e-access/Articles/harnad.html#B1">downsizing</a> to just implementing the <a href="http://www.dlib.org/dlib/july10/harnad/07harnad.html">peer review service</a>, paid for by researchers' institutions out of their subscription cancellation savings.<br /> &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;The subversion will be complete, because the refereed research literature will have taken to the airwaves, where it always belonged, and those airwaves will be free (to the benefit of us all) because their true minimal expenses will be covered the optimal way for the unimpeded flow of research findings to all: In advance.</blockquote> Open Access Archivangelism nospam@example.com (Stevan Harnad) Self-Archiving Mandates, 2014-06-30T19:09:37Z http://openaccess.eprints.org/wfwcomment.php?cid=1118 1 http://openaccess.eprints.org/rss.php?version=1.0&type=comments&cid=1118 Open Access in China: Time is of the Essence http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/1117-Open-Access-in-China-Time-is-of-the-Essence.html <blockquote><strong>Important Addendum and Correction from Eloy Rodrigues (June 19):</strong><br /> <br /> <em>The CAS mandate is for immediate deposit:<br /> <br /> CAS requires its researchers and graduate students to <b>deposit an electronic version of the final, peer-reviewed manuscripts of their research articles</b>, resulting from any public funded scientific research projects, submitted and consequently published in academic journals after the issuing of this policy, into the open access repositories of their respective institutes <b>at the time the article is published</b>, to be made publicly available within 12 months of the official data of publication.<br /> <br /> And CAS already has a network of IRs.

That is the growth tip of research. <em>Access losses in the first year are never fully caught up in later years</em>. The iron needs to be struck when it is hot.<br /> <br /> There are two very simple steps that China can take to minimise the needless loss of research uptake, usage and impact because of lost time:<br /> <br /> (1) China should set up the repositories immediately, using the available free softwares such as <a href="http://www.eprints.org">EPrints</a> and <a href="http://www.dspace.org">DSpace</a>. It requires only a server and a few hours worth of set-up time and the repository is ready for deposits. There is no reason whatsoever to wait two years.

Elsevier's policies have not changed (though we are reflecting and reviewing, as always) so is it that Romeo has changed the way it classifies our existing policies?  Very interested in learning  more...<br /> <br /> With kind wishes,<br /> <br /> Alicia<br /> <br /> Dr Alicia Wise<br /> Director of Access and Policy<br /> Elsevier</em><hr /><br /> </blockquote><strong>Stevan Harnad:</strong><br /> <br /> Hi Alicia,<br /> <br /> I agree completely that Elsevier's Green OA No-Embargo Policy has not changed at all from the way Karen formulated it 10 years ago:<blockquote>"<em>An author may post his version of the final paper on his personal web site and on his institution's web site (including its institutional respository). Each posting should include the article's citation and a link to the journal's home page (or the article's DOI). The author does not need our permission to do this, but any other posting (e.g. to a repository elsewhere) would require our permission. By "his version" we are referring to his Word or Tex file, not a PDF or HTML downloaded from ScienceDirect - but the author can update his version to reflect changes made during the refereeing and editing process. Elsevier will continue to be the single, definitive archive for the formal published version.</em>"  </blockquote>But SHERPA Romeo is classifying the Policy correctly as Green (and for some Elsevier journals "Blue," which actually also means Green! But because of Romeo's absurd colour scheme, "Romeo Blue" means that the refereed final draft can be immediately self-archived without embargo, whereas "Romeo Green" is reserved for when both the refereed final draft and the pre-refereeing draft can be immediately self-archived -- which is utterly irrelevant for OA, and causes needless and endless confusion, being at odds with the way "Green OA" is now universally used!)<br /> <br /> <!-- s9ymdb:852 --><img class="serendipity_image_center" width="600" height="272" style="border: 0px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px;" src="http://openaccess.eprints.org/uploads/Elsevier-Romeo.jpg" alt="" /><br /> <br /> But I also have to add that some of the confusion is caused by Elsevier's more recent attempts to add some pseudo-legal hedges to its Green OA policy, to the effect that Elsevier's authors retain the right to do everything Karen specified in 2004 except if they are required to exercise that right (by their institutions), in which case they may not do it.<br /> <br /> That is every bit as absurd as SHERPA's green/blue distinction, and can and should also be ignored by all authors. But you wanted to learn more...<br /> <br /> I think that today, the 10th anniversary of the Elsevier Green OA Policy, would be an excellent day to publicly scrap the empty hedges and re-assert the very progressive and constructive Elsevier Policy as it was and is. The hedges just cause gratuitous confusion and are very bad for Elsevier's image...<br /> <br /> With best wishes,<br /> <br /> Stevan Harnad<br /> <br /> <strong><center><a href="http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/1054-Elsevier-Keeps-Revising-Its-Double-Talk-But-Remains-Fully-Green.html">Elsevier Keeps Revising Its Double-Talk (But Remains Fully Green)</a><br /> <a href="http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/888-How-Elsevier-Can-Improve-Its-Public-Image.html">How Elsevier Can Improve Its Public Image</a><br /> <a href="http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/895-Elseviers-Public-Image-Problem.html">Elsevier's Public Image Problem</a><br /> <a href="http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/1091-Institutions-Funders-Ignore-Elsevier-Take-Down-Notices-and-Mandate-Immediate-Deposit.html">Institutions &amp; Funders: Ignore Elsevier Take-Down Notices (and Mandate Immediate-Deposit)</a><br /> <a href="http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/961-Some-Quaint-Elsevier-Tergiversation-on-Rights-Retention.html">Some Quaint Elsevier Tergiversation on Rights Retention</a><br /> <a href="http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/1012-Publisher-Double-Dealing-on-OA.html">Publisher Double Dealing on OA</a><br /> <a href="http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/1060-Free-Will-and-Systematicity.html">Free Will and Systematicity</a><br /> <a href="http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/889-Elsevier-requires-institutions-to-seek-Elseviers-agreement-to-require-their-authors-to-exercise-their-rights.html">Elsevier requires institutions to seek Elsevier's agreement to require their authors to exercise their rights?</a></center></strong><hr /><br /> <br /> <strong>Date:</strong> Thu, 27 May 2004 23:51:58 <br /> <strong>From: </strong>Stevan Harnad <harnad_at_ecs.soton.ac.uk> <br /> <br /> <strong>Elsevier Gives Authors Green Light for Open Access Self-Archiving</strong><br /> <br /> Elsevier has just gone from being a Romeo "Pale-Green" publisher to a full Romeo Green publisher: Authors have the publisher's official green light to self-archive both their pre-refereeing preprints and their refereed postprints. <br /> <br /> Elsevier has thereby demonstrated that -- whatever its pricing policy may be -- it is a publisher that has heeded the need and the expressed desire of the research community for Open Access (OA) and its benefits to research productivity and progress. <br /> http://www.nature.com/nature/focus/accessdebate/21.html <br /> <br /> There will be the predictable cavils from the pedants and those who have never understood the real meaning and nature of OA: "It's only the final refereed draft, not the publisher's PDF," "It does not include republishing rights," "Elsevier is still not an OA publisher." <br /> <br /> I, for one, am prepared to stoutly defend Elsevier on all these counts, and to say that one could not have asked for more, and that the full benefits of OA require not one bit more -- from the publisher. <br /> <br /> For now it's down to you, Dear Researchers! Elsevier (and History) is hereafter fully within its rights to say: <blockquote><em>"If Open Access is truly as important to researchers as they claim it is -- indeed as 30,000+ signatories to the PLoS Open Letter attested that it was http://www.publiclibraryofscience.org/cgi-bin/plosSign.pl -- then if researchers are not now ready to <u>provide</u> that Open Access, even when given the publisher's official green light to do so, then there is every reason to doubt that they mean (or even know) what they are saying when they clamour for Open Access." </em></blockquote>Elsevier publishes 1,700+ journals. That means at least 200,000 articles a year. Eprints.org will be carefully quantifying and tracking what proportion of those 200,000 articles is made OA by their authors through self-archiving across the next few months and years. Indeed we will be monitoring all of the over 80% of journals sampled by Romeo that are already green. <br /> <br /> (The following Romeo summary stats are already out of date, because 1700 pale-green journals have now become bright green! http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~harnad/Temp/Romeo/romeosum.html but we will soon catch up at: http://romeo.eprints.org/ [which is under construction, waiting for full journal lists from each of the 93 publishers sampled so far].) <br /> <br /> The OA ball is now clearly in the research community's court (not the publishing community's, not the library community's). Let researchers and their employers and funders now all rise to the occasion by adopting and implementing institutional OA provision policies. Don't just sign petitions for publishers to provide OA, but commit your own institution to providing it: <br /> <br /> http://www.eprints.org/signup/sign.php <br /> <br /> Stevan Harnad <br /> <br /> <blockquote><hr /><strong>Date:</strong> Thu, 27 May 2004 03:09:39 +0100 <br /> <strong>From:</strong> "Hunter, Karen (ELS-US)" <k.hunter--elsevier--com> <br /> <strong>To:</strong> "'harnad_at_ecs.soton.ac.uk'" <harnad--ecssotonacuk> <br /> <strong>Cc:</strong> "Karssen, Zeger (ELS)" <Z.Karssen_at_elsevier.nl>, "Bolman, Pieter (ELS)" <P.Bolman_at_elsevier.com>, "Seeley, Mark (ELS)" <m.seeley--elsevier--com> <br /> <strong>Subject:</strong> Re: Elsevier journal list <br /> <br /> <strong>Karen Hunter (Elsevier):</strong><br /> <br /> <em>Stevan, <br /> <br /> [H]ere is what we have decided on post-"prints" (i.e. published articles, whether published electronically or in print): <br /> <br /> An author may post his version of the final paper on his personal web site and on his institution's web site (including its institutional respository). Each posting should include the article's citation and a link to the journal's home page (or the article's DOI).

If the finding is erroneous, the attempts to build on it collapse. Cumulative replication is built into the trajectory of research itself  for those findings that are worth knowing. <br /> <br /> In contrast, if no one bothers to build anything on it, chances are that a finding was not worth knowing (and so it matters little whether it would replicate or not, if tested again).<br /> <br /> Why is it otherwise in many areas of Psychology? Why do the outcomes of so many one-shot, hit-and-run studies keep being reported in textbooks?<br /> <br /> Because so much of Psychology is not cumulative explanatory research at all. It is helter-skelter statistical outcomes that manage to do two things: (1) meet a crierion for statistical significance (i.e., a low probability that they occurred by chance) and (2) are amenable to an attention-catching interpretation.<br /> <br /> No wonder that their authors grumble when replicators spoil the illusion.<br /> <br /> Yes, open access, open commentary and crowd-sourcing are needed in all fields, for many reasons, but for one reason more in hit-and-run fields.

(The repository software as well as the Button are free for all.)<br /> <br /> The Button ensures that even during a publisher embargo on Open Access (OA) any researcher worldwide can immediately request and any author can immediately provide a single copy of any embargoed deposit for research purposes with just one extra click each  just as long as the authors final, peer-reviewed draft has been deposited in the repository immediately upon acceptance for publication, rather than only after a publisher OA embargo period has elapsed.<br /> <br /> This is not OA. It is only Almost-OA. But the copy-request Button ensures that the immediate-deposit does not lie fallow during any allowable OA embargo period.

He had been a dedicated, tireless and inspired advocate for OA ever since the idea was first baptized with a name (in Budapest 2001/2002, where Fred was one of the original co-drafters and co-signatories of the <a href="http://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/read">BOAI</a>). <br /> <br /> Fred's commitment to OA did not, I believe, originate only <em>ex officio</em>, as Director of Scholarly Communication at UCL, in the serials crisis with which he and all other library directors have had to struggle for decades. Fred also had a profound sense of justice (one that extended beyond local happenings, <em>sub specie aeternitatis</em>). He simply felt that OA was right. And what he did on OA's behalf he did out of character and conviction. (He was also extremely forgiving, as I can humbly attest.)<br /> <br /> Fred was, in his own words, a <a href="http://www.friendofopenaccess.org.uk/index.php/site-administrator">Friend of Open Access</a>. It is undeniable that OA has now lost a precious ally. But I think it is equally undeniable (and I am sure Fred knew it too) that OA is unstoppable now. That is true in no small part thanks to the efforts of this modest and faithful Friend.<br /> <br /> Heartfelt sympathy to Fred's family; I hope that in their pain they will also find room for some pride.<br /> <br /> <strong>Stevan Harnad</strong> Open Access Archivangelism nospam@example.com (Stevan Harnad) News, 2014-04-28T17:43:09Z http://openaccess.eprints.org/wfwcomment.php?cid=1108 0 http://openaccess.eprints.org/rss.php?version=1.0&type=comments&cid=1108 The Only Way to Make Inflated Subscriptions Unsustainable: Mandate Green OA http://openaccess.eprints.org/index.php?/archives/1107-The-Only-Way-to-Make-Inflated-Subscriptions-Unsustainable-Mandate-Green-OA.html <!-- s9ymdb:795 --><img class="serendipity_image_right" width="110" height="78" style="float: right; border: 0px; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 5px;" src="http://openaccess.eprints.org/uploads/foolsgold3.serendipityThumb.jpg" alt="" />The only effective way to make inflated subscriptions unsustainable is for funders and institutions to mandate Green OA self-archiving. <br /> <br /> <a href="http://gowers.wordpress.com/2014/04/24/elsevier-journals-some-facts/">Tim Gowers</a> is quite right that <em>the pace of change is slow, and the alternative system that is most strongly promoted  open access articles paid for by article processing charges [Gold OA]  is one that mathematicians tend to find unpalatable. (And not only mathematicians: they are extremely unpopular in the humanities.) there is no sign that they will help to bring down costs any time soon and no convincing market mechanism by which one might expect them to.</em><br /> <br /> This is all true as long as the other form of OA (Green OA self-archiving by authors of published articles in OA repsositories, mandated by funders and institutions) has not prevailed. Pre-Green Gold is "Fool's-Gold." Only Post-Green Gold is Fair-Gold.<br /> <br /> The current <a href="http://poynder.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/oa-advocate-stevan-harnad-withdraws_26.html">Finch/RCUK policy</a>, preferring Gold OA, has had its predictable perverse effects:<blockquote>1. sustaining arbitrary, bloated Gold OA fees<br /> 2. wasting scarce research funds<br /> 3. double-paying publishers [subscriptions plus Gold]<br /> 4. handing subscription publishers a hybrid-gold-mine<br /> 5. enabling hybrid publishers to double-dip<br /> 6. abrogating authors' freedom of journal-choice [based on cost-recovery model, embargo or licence instead of on quality]<br /> 7. imposing re-mix licenses that many authors don't want and most users and fields don't need<br /> 8. inspiring subscription publishers to adopt and lengthen Green OA embargoes [to maxmize hybrid-gold revenues]<br /> 9. handicapping Green OA mandates worldwide [by incentivizing embargoes]<br /> 10. allowing journal-fleet publishers to confuse and exploit institutions and authors even more</blockquote>But the solution is also there, as already adopted by <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/56/">University of Liege</a> and <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/850/">FRS-FNRS</a> (the Belgian Francophone research funding council), <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/987/">EC Horizon2020</a> and now also by <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/834/">HEFCE for REF2020</a>.<blockquote>a. funders and institutions mandate immediate-deposit <br /> b. of the peer-reviewed final draft <br /> c. in the author's institutional repository <br /> d. immediately upon acceptance for publication<br /> e. whether journal is subscription or Gold<br /> f. whether access to the deposit is immedate-OA or embargoed<br /> g. whether license is transfered, retained or CC-BY;<br /> h. institutions implement repository's facilitated <a href="https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/RequestCopy">email eprint request Button</a>;<br /> i. institutions designate immediate-deposit the mechanism for submitting publications for research performance assessment;<br /> j. institutions monitor and ensure immediate-deposit mandate compliance</blockquote>This policy restores author choice, moots publisher embargoes, makes Gold and CC-BY completely optional, provides the incentive for author compliance and the natural institutional mechanism for verifying it, consolidates funder and institutional mandates; hastens the natural death of OA embargoes, the onset of universal Green OA, and the resultant institutional subscription cancellations, journal downsizing and transition to Fair-Gold OA at an affordable, sustainable price, paid out of institutional subscription cancellation savings instead of over-priced, double-paid, double-dipped Fool's-Gold. And of course Fair-Gold OA will license all the re-use rights users need and authors want to allow.<br /> <br /> In summary, plans by universities and research funders to pay the costs of Gold OA today are premature. Funds are short; 80% of journals (including virtually all the top journals) are still subscription-based, tying up the potential funds to pay for Gold OA; the asking price for Gold OA is still high; and there is concern that paying to publish may inflate acceptance rates and lower quality standards. What is needed now is for universities and funders to mandate Green OA self-archiving (of authors' final peer-reviewed drafts, immediately upon acceptance for publication). That will provide immediate OA; and if and when universal Green OA should go on to make subscriptions unsustainable (because users are satisfied with just the Green OA versions) that will in turn induce journals to cut costs (print edition, online edition, access-provision, archiving), downsize to just providing the service of peer review, and convert to the Gold OA cost-recovery model; meanwhile, the subscription cancellations will have released the funds to pay these residual service costs. The natural way to charge for the service of peer review then will be on a "no-fault basis," with the author's institution or funder paying for each round of refereeing, regardless of outcome (acceptance, revision/re-refereeing, or rejection). This will minimize cost while protecting against inflated acceptance rates and decline in quality standards.<br /> <br /> Harnad, S.

(And the Beall bunch of Gold OA journals have not been getting the greatest report cards either...)<br /> <br /> And there are many long-standing, field-specific non-OA journals with track records for high standards rather than Nature/Science glitz and hype. (I'm not sure, either, whether the undeniable public interest in research related to personal health generalizes to the vast portions of biomedical and non-biomedical research that are not related to human health problems.)<br /> <br /> And it's not clear how authors choosing to publish in Gold OA journals while most journals are still non-OA <em>saves</em> money, rather than costing even <em>more</em> money: While most journals are still non-OA, institutions must still pay their must-have subscriptions (so their users retain access to the incoming articles in non-OA journals) on top of whatever is being paid for Gold OA for outgoing articles.<br /> <br /> Nor is it clear that the per-article revenue of Gold OA journals, though lower than the average non-OA journal article revenue, is anywhere near as low as it could be if all articles were Green, so Institutional Repositories could do all the access-provision and archiving, and the only thing journals had to do or charge for was <em>managing the peer review</em>.<br /> <br /> This is why I've taken to calling post-Green Gold OA "Fair Gold" OA, in contrast to pre-Green "Fool's Gold" OA.<br /> <br /> (But I've resisted the temptation -- because I really think it would be unfair and misleading -- to entitle this posting "April Fool's Gold." Mike's is not a foolish picture, but it's certainly not the fullish one either...)

How long an OA embargo it allows is a separate matter, but on no account must date of deposit be allowed to be contingent on publisher OA embargoes.</blockquote>This is exactly what the <strong><a href="http://www.hefce.ac.uk/news/newsarchive/2014/news86805.html">New HEFCE policy for open access in the post-2014 Research Excellence Framework</a></strong> has done.<blockquote><strong>(2)</strong> Eligibility for research assessment (and funding) must be made conditional on immediate-deposit (date-stamped by the journal acceptance letter). Again, this is in order to ensure that deposits are not made months or years after publication: no retrospective deposit.</blockquote>The deposit requirement for eligibility for research assessment and funding is not itself an OA requirement, it is merely a procedural requirement: For eligibility, papers must be deposited in the institutional repository immediately upon acceptance for publication. Late deposits are not eligible for consideration. <br /> <br /> This engages each university (always extremely anxious to comply fully with REF, HEFCE and RCUK eligibility rules) in ensuring that deposit is timely, with the help of the date-stamped acceptance letter throughout the entire 6-year REF cycle, 2014-2020. <br /> <br /> These two conditions are what have yielded the most effective of all the Green OA mandates to date (well over 80% compliance rate and growing) at <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/56/">University of Liege</a> and <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/850/">FRS-FNRS</a> (the Belgian Francophone research funding council). Other mandates have since been upgrading to this mandate model: <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/75/">Harvard FAS</a> has already adopted immediate-deposit as one of its conditions. So has the European Commission's <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/987/">Horizon2020</a>. And now <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/671/">RCUK</a>  thanks to HEFCE/REF  will reap the benefits of the immediate-deposit condition as well (see <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org">ROARMAP</a>)<br /> <br /> OA embargoes are another matter, and HEFCE/REF is wisely leaving that to others (<a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/671/">RCUK</a>, <a href="http://roarmap.eprints.org/987/">EU Horizon2020</a>, and university mandates) to stipulate maximal allowable embargo length and any allowable exceptions. What HEFCE/REF is providing is the crucial two components for ensuring that the mandate will succeed: (1) immediate deposit as a (2) condition for REF-eligibility.<br /> <br /> But let me add something else that will become increasingly important, once the HEFCE/REF immediate-deposit requirement begins to propagate worldwide (as I am now confident it will: UK is at last back in the lead on OA again, instead of odd-man-out, as it has been since <a href="http://scholar.google.ca/scholar?hl=en&q=author%3Aharnad+finch&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C5&as_sdtp="><strong>Finch</strong></a>):<br /> <br /> The immediate-deposit clause and the contingency on eligibility for research assessment and funding also ensures that the primary locus of deposit will be the institutional repository rather than institution-external repositories. (Deposits can be exported automatically to external repositories, once deposited and once the embargo has elapsed; they can also be imported from extrenal repositories, in the case of the physicists and mathematicians who have already been faithfully depositing in Arxiv for two decades,) <br /> <br /> But besides all that, many of the eprints and dspace institutional repositories already have  and, with the HEFCE mandate model propagating almost all of them will soon have the email-eprint-request Button:<br /> <br /> This Button makes it possible for users who reach a closed access deposit to click once to request a copy for research purposes; the repository software emails an automatic eprint request to the author, who can click once to comply with the request; the repository software emails the requestor the eprint. (Researchers have been requesting and sending reprints by mail  and lately by email  for decades, but with immediate-deposit and the Button, this is greatly accelerated and facilitated. So even during any allowable embargo period, the Button will enhance access and usage dramatically. I also predict that immediate-deposit and the Button will greatly hasten the inevitable and well-deserved demise of publisher OA embargoes.)<br /> <br /> Let me close by noting another important feature of the new HEFCE/REF policy: The allowable exceptions do not apply to the immediate-deposit requirement! They only apply to the allowable open-access embargo. To be eligible for REF2020, a paper must have been deposited immediately upon acceptance for publication (with a 3-month grace period).<br /> <br /> (No worries about HEFCE's optional 2 year start-up grace period either: Institutions will almost certainly want their REF procedures safely and systematically in place as early as possible, so everything can go simply and smoothly and there is no risk of papers being ineligible.)<br /> <br /> <blockquote><hr /><em>Postscript</em>. Expect the usual complaints from the usual suspects:<blockquote>(i) "<em>This is a sell-out of OA! It's just Green Gratis OA, not Libre OA: What about the re-use rights? And if its embargoed, it isnt even Green OA!</em>"</blockquote><u>Reply</u>: Relax. Patience. A compromise was needed, to break the log-jam between the Finch/Wellcome <a href="https://www.google.ca/search?client=safari&rls=en&q='open+access'+'fools+gold'&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&gfe_rd=cr&ei=xJg5U7nYA4rM8geSmoCwDw">Fools-Gold</a> profligacy and publisher embargoes on Green OA. The HEFCE immediate-deposit compromise is what will break up that log jam, and its not only the fastest and surest (and cheapest) way to get to 100% Green Gratis OA, but also the fastest, surest and cheapest way to get from Green Gratis OA to Libre <a href="http://poynder.blogspot.ca/2013/07/where-are-we-what-still-needs-to-be.html">Fair-Gold</a> OA.<blockquote>(ii) "<em>This is a sell-out to publishers and their embargoes</em>."</blockquote><u>Reply</u>: Quite the opposite. It will immediately detoxify embargoes (thanks to the Button) and at the same time plant the seeds for their speedy extinction, by depriving publishers of the power to delay access-provision with their embargoes. It is also moots the worries of the most timorous or pedantic IP lawyer.<br /> <br /> It thereby provides a mandate model that any funder or institution can adopt, irrespective of how it elects to deal with publisher OA embargoes.<br /> <br /> And a mandate that can be simply and effectively implemented and monitored by institutions to ensure compliance.<hr /></blockquote><br /> Harnad, S., Carr, L., Brody, T. &amp; Oppenheim, C.
