Summary:

From Google Translate: "On 14 February 2002, a text entitled Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI) was signed by 16 people, including Jean-Claude Guédon, Stevan Harnad and Peter Suber, forerunners and advocates of open access , Literature of scholarly journals. The declaration gives this definition: 'By' free access 'to this literature, we mean its free provision on the public Internet, allowing anyone to read, download, copy, transmit, print, Link to the full text of these articles, dissect them for indexing, use data for software, or use it for any other legal purpose, without financial, legal or technical barriers other than those inseparable from the software, Access and use of the Internet. The only constraint on reproduction and distribution and the sole role of copyright in this area should be to guarantee authors a control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly recognized and cited.' 

To achieve this goal, the signatories recommended two strategies:

  • 'Self- archiving  : in the first place, scientists need tools and assistance to deposit their peer-reviewed journal articles into open electronic archives, a practice commonly known as self-archiving .'
  • 'Alternative Journals: Secondly, scholars need the means to launch a new generation of alternative journals engaged in open access and to assist existing journals that choose to make the transition to open access.'

For this fifteenth anniversary, a working group has been formed which will synthesize the results of the survey to gather the views of the community.  In addition, Jean-Claude Guédon shares his reflections in the text: Open Access: Toward the Internet of the Mind .

The Budapest Declaration, like other reference texts, is available in French on the site dedicated to Open Access launched in 2003."
