What does library support for open access publishing mean? Who benefits from this initiative? And what is the benefit of making your articles open access immediately upon publication?\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen 1:03\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Absolutely. By the end of this episode, you will have a better understanding of SOAP, and you&#8217;ll feel ready to take the next step in your open access publishing journey. So, let&#8217;s set the timer for seven minutes and get down to business.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen 1:21<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Library Support for Open Access Publication or SOAP is a term we use to refer to the licensing agreements that UVic Libraries holds with different academic publishers. This includes open access publishing agreements and discounts. These agreements have been negotiated by the UVic Libraries with publishers with the aim of reducing or eliminating APCs associated with the publication of scholarly articles.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Madison 1:48\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Yeah, that&#8217;s right, Kristen. But if none of that made any sense to you listening, don&#8217;t worry, we&#8217;re gonna break down all of the important terms into smaller bite sized pieces of knowledge for you. For us to first understand what licensing agreements and SOAP are, I think we need to understand why we would use them. Authors looking to publish under open access utilize licensing agreements to help pay for the cost of publishing open.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 2:10\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">But what is open access? You are writing a paper; you have been searching through database after database looking for something that is concrete that will back up your claims and inform your argument even more. You finally find the perfect paper. The abstract makes sense, and you want to read more. But there is a paywall.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Madison 2:38\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">So open access, or OA, is a model of publishing that makes research available to readers at no cost. So, in the instance that you&#8217;re talking about, Kristen, if that article had been published open access, you wouldn&#8217;t have run into that paywall. And it&#8217;s that paywall that stopping people from gaining access to information that&#8217;s actually really valuable. Publishers often offer OA in several different formats, but they do sometimes refer to them in slightly different terms. However, one of the most common terms for being full open access is called gold open access. And when a publisher uses the term gold open access, it usually means that the article is immediately free and accessible on the publishers platform. So again, in your instance, if this person had published their article, gold OA or gold open access, you would have had access to it immediately. And you wouldn&#8217;t have had to pay $25 for a single paper. So Kristen, I&#8217;ve seen that some journals also have green open access is that different from gold?\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen 3:33\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">You&#8217;re right about that Madison, researchers also have the option to publish under green open access, which means that they will publish a copy of their manuscript on an institutional repository, just like UVicSpace.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Madison 3:45\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Oh, no way!\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen 3:46\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">When deciding whether to publish under open access.

Paying the fee might not be necessary to publish under Open Access thanks to SOAP and the fantastic licensing agreements that we have through UVic libraries.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen 5:03\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Okay, so from what I can understand UVic libraries supports authors publishing under open access through holding different licensing agreements.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Madison 5:14\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Yeah, exactly. So, these licensing agreements are contracts between the UVic libraries and publishers that heavily discount article processing charges, essentially providing free money. Like I know, we currently, as of June 2024, have anything from like 15% APC discount to completely free. These agreements are revolutionizing scholarly publishing by transitioning from the older model where institutions often paid a fixed fee for access to all articles, to this new arrangement. And on top of that institutions are also allocating funds specifically for open access publishing, that&#8217;s just how important it is. Now, this allows researchers to publish their work openly without any extra charges and also comply with funding mandates. If you&#8217;re considering publishing under open access, it would be wise to explore the offers available through SOAP!<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen 6:06\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">How can UVic authors specifically access these discounts that you speak of?\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Madison 6:11\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">So, the libraries have done something very cool, and we&#8217;ve created almost like a little poster where you&#8217;re able to see the licensing agreements with all of the scholarly publishers that we have them with. You can access these through the UVic Libraries website, and what requirements there are for UVic authors to be able to access them. Authors that are outside of UVic should check with their own university librarians to see if they offer similar discounts, because this is pretty common with most academic libraries.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen\u00a0 6:41\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Hold on, hold on, what if an author wanted to skip this headache and just continue to publish under a subscription-based model? What would the benefits even be of publishing under open access?\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Madison 6:52\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Well, ultimately, it is their choice. However, there are many recorded benefits to publishing immediately open and accessible articles. For one publishing under Open Access enables your research to be read and cited by a larger global audience, which then can allow for your research to be utilized for other purposes like policies more readily.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen 7:12\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It also enables people to access your work barrier free, which means that people who would otherwise not be able to read your work because they don&#8217;t want to pay for a subscription may interact with your scholarship. And to reiterate what you said Madison, most grants nowadays and other funding now require authors to publish under some form of open access. So, choosing to publish under open access would be complying with funder mandates.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Madison 7:37\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">So, Kristen, if let&#8217;s say I&#8217;m an author, and I just am like, &#8220;No, I&#8217;m not sold on this.&#8221; What&#8217;s happening if I go without it?<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kristen 7:47\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Well, Madison, if you were to go without it, you would be leaving money on the table.
