I am afraid I am less interested in your role as journalist than in your
role as policy consultant to OSTI. <br><br>
As journalist you are reporting what the federal agencies are doing, but
as a consultant you were <br>
influencing what a federal agency was doing.<br><br>
To cut to the quick: The simplest way to keep publishers out of federal
agency or university OA policy <br>
is not to consult them at all. <br><br>
All Green OA mandates should require institutional deposit of the
refereed final draft immediately <br>
upon acceptance for publication, and the allowable OA embargo length on
the deposit should be <br>
decided by the federal agency (or university). <br><br>
That’s all. Publishers have nothing to do with it — it needs neither
their approval nor their collaboration. <br><br>
It is attempts to get publishers involved in the <i>implementation</i> of
the mandate that cause the needless<br>
confusions and conflicts:<br><br>
1. Federal funders fund researcher (with tax-payer money).<br><br>
2. Institutional authors conduct and report the research.<br><br>
3. Peer researchers review the research reports.<br><br>
4. Publishers fund the <i>administration of the peer review</i> (and in
exchange they get exclusive <br>
subscription sale rights).<br><br>
5. Funders and institutions mandate Green OA self-archiving (as a
condition of funding, <br>
and university research performance evaluation)<br><br>
6. Authors comply with the Green OA mandates — by depositing immediately
upon acceptance, <br>
and making the deposit OA immediately, or after the allowable embargo at
the latest.<br><br>
That’s all there is to it: Publishers have nothing to do with compliance
with the mandates.<br><br>
Have you advised otherwise, in your capacity as consultant?<br><br>

Stevan (I prefer to reply at the top like most people here),<br><br>
As you should know, I am now a journalist, which I was prior to joining
DOE in 2004. In this role I get to criticize everyone, including the
publishers. My rag is
<a href="http://insidepublicaccess.com/" eudora="autourl">
</a><a href="http://insidepublicaccess.com/">http://insidepublicaccess.com/</a> which you might consider subscribing
to in order to know what is actually going on. If you think the
publishers have any sort of control you are mistaken, as the Feds are in
charge. I have written about this in some detail. However, if you know of
any US agency that is taking your proposals seriously I would love to
hear about it.<br><br>
Something very interesting is going on, namely a group of medical
students is investigating DOE, probably looking for improper liaison with
the publishers (which I doubt exists). Here are some excerpts from this
weeks issue of <b>Inside Public Access</b>:<br><br>
</font><div align="center"><b><font face="Arial">DOE hit with Public Access FOIA request<br><br>
</font></b></div><font face="Arial"><b>
Synopsis</b>: The US Energy Dept. is responding to a Freedom of
Information Act request targeting correspondence between DOE and the
"publishing industry" regarding the Department's Public Access
program. The FOIA request comes from the American Medical Student
Association and appears to be related to their "Access to
Medicine" campaign. The purpose of the request is unclear at this
time.<br><br>
</font><div align="center"><font face="Arial">AMSA and the FOIA request<br>
</font></div><font face="Arial">
<br>
Ms. Reshma Ramachandran from the American Medical Student Association
(<a href="http://www.amsa.org/">AMSA</a>) has filed a Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) request with the US Energy Department. The request
is reportedly for "Copies of all correspondence including electronic
and paper communications, between all Department of Energy personnel
tasked with developing the Department of Energy's plan for providing
access to the results of federally funded research and the publishing
industry relating to the development, drafting and implementation of said
plan for providing access to the results of federally funded research
released on August 4, 2014." DOE is working to collect and deliver
all the requested documents. Everything prior to September 11, 2014, when
the request was finalized, will be included. <br><br>
Interestingly, there is a recent precedent for the AMSA FOIA action. Kent
Anderson, editor of the prestigious Scholarly Kitchen blog and President
of the Society for Scholarly Publishing, did a FOIA action against PubMed
Central that yielded a considerable amount of potentially damaging
information. In particular, Anderson made a
<a href="http://scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2013/12/24/pubmed-central-revealed-reviewing-and-interpreting-the-findings-of-a-surprising-2013/">
number of allegations</a> of conflict of interest and other wrongs in
some collaborations between PMC and certain publishers. <br><br>
FOIA actions have a tendency to chill communications between agencies and
the public. Unfortunately this AMSA enquiry comes just when that sort of
communication is most important, because DOE and the scholarly community
must work closely together if Public Access is going to work well. As
they say, the devil is in the details, and the details are now upon us.
As we have documented here in <b>Inside Public Access</b>, there are a
host of serious and complex procedural issues yet to be worked
out.<br><br>
I have trouble believing it is worth it, but it remains to be seen what,
if anything, AMSA finds. Perhaps the real danger is that innocent
statements will be taken out of context and used politically, rather than
to improve the Public Access program. On the other hand maybe there is
something wrong going on. In any case the results may be quite
interesting, now that the spotlight is on.<br><br>
A surprising development. Med students!<br><br>
