Le due facce dell'Open Access - Academic Publishing Services

From Google Translate: "As we discovered in Rome during the workshop, for example, someone proposes that universities, departments, scientific societies adopt models of publication of books and magazines with the Gold OA model (or more properly Diamond OA, as the economic coverage would be ensured primarily by the institution itself) in order to offer the opportunity to publish and distribute low-cost scientific publishing niche in certain areas (typically the HSS).

But on the other hand, some believe that OA introduce additional services to the normal chain of scientific production and distribution, and therefore in need of further investments and additional costs, regardless of the shape of the support and the type of publication which we are referring.

Once again, wanting to exaggerate the different positions, it is believed OA a tool to produce / distribute low cost of scientific research results, or an additional element of quality and transparency, which requires a professional and investment surplus?

I think to answer this preliminary question is very relevant, if there is going to define the list of services and processes necessary for the publication of magazines and monographs in Open Access, and we want to try to quantify the costs."
