Summary:

Google English: "Consortial subscription contracts between publishers and academic libraries govern digital access to publications. For some years, however, the trend towards a freely accessible publication system (Open Access) has intensified. As a consequence of this development, the contractual relationships between licensors and users are also gradually changing: More and more agreements are now also influencing open access publishing. The present work attempts to contrast the various approaches of such consortium licensing agreements with open access components on the basis of contracts concluded in Austria. This describes the differences between pure subscription contracts and various novel agreements with open access components. The need for modified evaluation methods in assessing these new licensing agreements becomes apparent. The most important new element of such analyzes is the evaluation of open access publication numbers. The paper is now attempting to conduct these publication analyzes for the existing open access agreements. The focus is on quantitative questions: How do the numbers of publications develop? How are the Open Access Shares changing? The database is based on publications from the publishers and queries from the Scopus database. The results compared show that the differing conceptions of the contracts also yield strongly divergent results: For instance, the focus of the individual contracts can be on cost savings or on the efficient increase of the open access rates. It is expected that in the following years numerous other open-access consortial contracts will be negotiated. The findings available here can be used as a guide...."
