Open access by the numbers

Connotea Imports 2012-07-31

Summary:

"Over the past few months +Emily Kilcer has been expanding and updating OA by the numbers , the catalog of OA-related counts and tallies at the Open Access Directory. (Thanks, Emily!) This list should be everyone's first stop when looking for numerical answers to questions about the growth or current state of open access to research. For example: How many OA journals use CC licenses? How many universities have institutional memberships in BMC? How many OA repositories are there around the world? How many articles are on deposit in arXiv? How many people have signed the "Cost of Knowledge" petition? Every entry includes a link allowing users to verify the update the numbers. We're sure that list is not complete. But OAD is a wiki and encourages users to help keep it current and comprehensive. As you come across useful, relevant numbers in your own research, please lend a hand and post them to this list. If you're too busy, just send them to me and I'll make sure they make it to the wiki...."
