Summary:
From Google Translate: "In the summer semester 2017, I offer a course on Open Access & Open Science in the contact study of the HdM at the Hochschule der Medien (HdM) in Stuttgart, which I will point out here. The course consists of online phases and two presence dates on 25.02.2017 (Saturday) as well as the 24.03. And 25.03.2017 (Friday and Saturday), so that the participation is possible during the course of the course.
The registration is possible via the website to the media university. Here also the detailed course description:
About fifteen years ago, Open Access gained greater attention for the first time, when scientists and librarians launched the Budapest Open Access Initiative in 2001 and demanded a free use of scientific publications. Initially denied, Open Access became a success and business model: the number of remuneration-free documents rose steadily and faster than the total output of scientific works. And it was not until 2016 that the EU called for all scientific publications to be published by the year 2020 open access. Almost simultaneously, the Max Planck Society launched the Open Access 2020 initiative, which aims at transforming subscription journals into open access journals, while at the same time providing funding for these open access journals through publication fees. Despite these advances, open access is also being severely threatened, especially by the so - called Predatory Publishing, where journals contain the aforementioned
But do not undertake any quality control of the submitted articles - which means that the affected authors are not only concerned about money, but also jeopardize their reputation.
The evolving and already occurring changes concern libraries directly, they are transformed into service providers, which operate open access publishing offers in the form of open access publishers or journals, offer advice on reputable open access publishers or the administration of Open Access publication fund. However, libraries are increasingly not only compelled to ask for competences in the context of the text publications
Also require functions in the areas of providing research data, and they play a role in big-data scenarios, for example when it comes to negotiating licenses that allow text & data mining researchers. In short, Open Science is also a challenge for libraries.
The module provides information on developments in Open Access and Open Science,
Especially with regard to areas of activity in libraries and the development of open access services in libraries. The focus is on the special features
The open access to texts and data as well as the properties of the open content licenses, but not technical-infrastructural aspects such as research data management or licenses from the subscription business.
In view of the increase in Open Access and the efforts to make Open Access the dominant publication model, which is intended to replace the subscription method, it is possible to provide suggestions and insights into the evolving business fields of libraries.
