Definition of Open Access In using the term “open access”, we mean the free availability of peer-reviewed literature on
the public internet, permitting any user to:
- Read,
- Download,
- Copy,
- Distribute,
- Print, - Search, or Link to the full texts of the articles

Driving Force Behind Open Access – Dissatisfaction at all Levels
q Authors: their work is not seen by all their peers – do not receive the recognition they desire
q Readers: cannot view all research literature they need – less effective
q Libraries: cannot satisfy information needs of their users

Support of the Open Access by Developed Countries
q UK Parliamentary Inquiry: Science and Technology Committee, 2004 q U.S. Appropriations Committee, 2004 q Canada, 2003 - the Canadian Association of Research Libraries,
launched an Institutional Repository Project in 2003 q Australia, 2004 - Australian Research Information Infrastructure
Committee (ARIIC) Open Access Declaration q Italy, 2004 - Messina Declaration q Germany, 2003 - Berlin Declaration on open Access to Knowledge in Sciences and Humanities q Sweden- Since 2006, Sweden has had a national OA programme,
OpenAccess.se, which has played a role in the creation of a national search portal for scholarly publications (SwePub)
q France - France's HAL multi-disciplinary open archive was launched by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in 2001.

Support of the Open Access by EIFL
q Open Access policy has now been adopted by 47 institutions in developing and transition countries in the EIFL network
q There are 670+ open repositories and 3.400+ open access journals in EIFL partner countries
q EIFL- OA organized 121 awareness raising, advocacy and capacity building events and workshops in 2003-2013 in 41 countries with participants from over 50 countries

Two Ways of the Open Access
Budapest Open Access Initiative <http://www.soros.org/openaccess/index.shtml> Recommends 2 Strategies: 1. Open Access Journals ("gold"): Publish your article in a suitable open-access journal whenever one exists.
2. Self-archiving in Open Electronic Archives/Repositories ("green"): Otherwise, publish your article in a suitable toll-access journal and also self-archive it.

What is an Institutional
Repository (IR)?
“A digital collection capturing and preserving the intellectual
output of a single or multi-university community.”
Raym Crow. <http://www.arl.org/sparc/IR/ir.html>
“A university-based institutional repository is a set of
services that a university offers to the members of its community for the management and dissemination of digital materials created by the institution and its community members.”
Clifford Lynch. Essential infrastructure for scholarship in the digital age ARL, no. 226 (February2003): 1-7.
12 Baku Higher Oil School Library, April 02, 2014
Institutional Repositories’ Contributions to Open Access
q Scholarly communication q Supporting education through learning
materials q Electronic publishing q Managing digital collections of research
outputs on university networks q Housing and preserving digital collections q Enhancing university’s prestige
13 Baku Higher Oil School Library, April 02, 2014
Benefits of Institutional Repositories
to Various Stakeholders
For the researcher:
q Increased visibility of research output and consequently the department and the institution
q Potentially increased impact of publications as an author at the institution
q Provides the possibility to standardize
institutional records e.g. academic's CVs and published papers
q Allows the creation of personalized publications

Benefits of Institutional
Repositories to Various Stakeholders
For the institution:
q Increases visibility and prestige of an institution Repository content is readily searchable both locally and globally
q A repository that contains high quality content
could be used as a 'shop window' or marketing tool to entice staff, students and funding
q A repository can store other types of content that
is not necessarily published, sometimes known as 'grey literature'
15 Baku Higher Oil School Library, April 02, 2014
Benefits of Institutional Repositories to Various Stakeholders
For the global community:
q Assists research collaboration through facilitating free exchange of scholarly information (this is enabled through the use of metadata harvesters of OAI-compliant institutional repositories)
q Aids in the public understanding of research endeavours and activities.

The Power of Open Access – Institutional Repositories

q For 72% of papers published in the Astrophysical Journal free versions of the paper are available in repositories (mainly through ArXiv)
q These 72% of papers are, on average, cited twice as often as the remaining 28% that do not have free versions available in repositories. Data «Greg Schwarz»

q To create a permanent record of the scholarly output of Baku Higher Oil School
- No access to some scholarly works published by our own faculty
- Collections of working papers, technical reports, research reports flowing around

Self-archiving
Self-archiving serves two main purposes:
q Allows authors to disseminate their
research articles for free over the internet
q Helps to ensure the preservation of those articles in a rapidly evolving electronic environment
35 Baku Higher Oil School Library, April 02, 2014
q To self-archive is to deposit a digital document in a publicly accessible website
q Depositing involves a simple web interface where the depositer copy/pastes in the “metadata” (date, author-name, title, journal-name, etc.) and then attaches the full-text document
q Self-archiving takes only about 10 minutes q DSpace also allows for documents to be
selfarchived in bulk, rather than just one by one
q Many funding bodies mandate self-archiving

Self-archiving by DSpace
q Register to: dspace.bhos.edu.az/xmlui q Choose a collection you want to submit to, e.g. Personal Archive q Send us an email and ask for registration rights.
38 Baku Higher Oil School Library, April 02, 2014
Challenges
Library will continue to: q Provide support for university research
self-archiving
q Educate users and faculty about the IR
q Showcase the IR
q Find champions and partners among faculty
q Seek institutional mandate and support q Harvest documents
39 Baku Higher Oil School Library, April 02, 2014
Conclusion
This is the age of information explosion.
It demands institutional Librarians to organize and
provide right information to the right user at the right time.
