    1. However, as stated by Pourret [18], a majority of the journals in geochemistry also have a green colour according to the SHERPA/RoMEO grading system, indicating that preprint (and the peer-reviewed postprint version) articles submitted to these journals can be freely shared on a preprint server, without compromising authors’ abilities to publish in parallel in those journals. Moreover, Pourret et al. [17] highlighted that the majority of journals in geochemistry allow authors to share preprints of their articles (47/56; 84%).

      Librarians are masters at finding material and checking copyright. This is what we do and what we've done for years but most of us really don't have an understanding of what is OER and how it can be used. As librarians continue to be in forefront of this movement, we need to be educated with language we understand so we can interpret it to those we serve. This source gives an indepth interpretation in librarian-understandable language

    1. This could occur because, even if the institution’s users are using the content at the same or even higher rate, that usage may not be able to be attributed to the institution. Users will no longer have to pass through an authentication system to get to the content and so any off-campus, mobile device, etc. usage may end up untraced to the institution.

      This is a very important point to consider.

    1. Transparency agendas are being used to legislate against consortial open-access models even though it has good cost outcomes

      against economic models as justifications for open access

    1. The sites’ funders are motivated by arguablysuspect goals, but the published results—often at some editorial remove—are free andaccessible. Indeed, The Conversation‘s university, government, and foundation subsidy foropen-access is an implicit model for breaking the lockdown of Elsevier, SAGE, and the otheracademic-publisher oligopolists.

      Anything that helps to break the lockdown of Elsevier et al. is worth watching.

    1. it sometimes isn’t enough just to say “this will save students money so we should do it.

      Indeed!

    2. But if we can continue to help faculty move along the spectrum—perhaps from the multi-user eBook to an open textbook, and eventually to their students editing and re-sharing improvements to that open textbook—isn’t it worth our time and effort to pursue these projects too?

      Such important work.

    1. Digital writing is the first kind of writing that does not reduce recorded knowledge to a rivalrous object. If we all have the right equipment, then we can all have copies of the same digital text without excluding one another, without multiplying our costs, and without depleting our resources.
