at the report itself, and particularly Chapters 8 and 9. But yes, I do disagree with your view that mandated “green deposit” will achieve a situation in which all publication costs are met upfront, allowing all research results to be freely available on the
principle that knowledge should be a “nonrivalrous good”. The problem with your position is that it preserves, and will prolong, a status quo in which repositories contain combinations of metadata, a limited number of full-text deposits, non-searchable PDFs
and (some) published-version copies which have been migrated from publishers’ web sites. This approach also encourages for-profit partnerships between publishers and some academic societies who want to preserve high margins in order to fund other activities
(of course, not all learned societies take this view – witness the excellent position being taken by the Royal Society). For example, in her presentation to the symposium organized by the Academy of Social Sciences in December, Felice Levine was quite clear
that the American Educational Research Association would lobby against a system of up-front APCs because it would damage the ability of the AERA to make sufficient margins to fund their business activities. While I have nothing against the AERA and similar
organizations running as businesses, their use of licencing is, in effect, a hypothecated tax on the distribution of knowledge. This seems to me inconsistent with the principle of knowledge as a nonrivalrous good.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">My argument (which is not the same as the Finch Group’s position, and would probably not be shared by some on the Finch Group) is that we need to steer towards
conditions in which the copy-of-record is freely and openly available because full APCs have been met upfront. This does not necessarily mean that APCs need be high and, across the full range of Open Access journals, they are already negligible. I believe
that competition between for-profit publishers for “gold” will drive down APCs as long as cartels are avoided (but of course this has to be an assumption). “Double dipping” through hybrid approaches remains a risk but – as the reaction against Elsevier’s
profit margins showed – academics can walk away from journals that maintain unacceptable combinations of licencing and gold options; without academic authors, publishers are emperors without clothes. In my view, the true digital revolution is one of volume
and interoperability; automated data and text mining of freely searchable copy-of-record text will be essential to the “semantic intelligence” that will be the research paradigm of the near future. Institutional repositories will play a key role as digital
archives. I set this argument out in my presentation to the Westminster Forum (<a href="http://www.salford.ac.uk/vc" target="_blank">www.salford.ac.uk/vc</a>).

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">What I think is becoming clear, post-Finch and particularly in the debate about RCUK policies (which are not the same as the Finch recommendations) is that
one approach does not suit all genres of research. There needs to be more work on models for the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, including considerations of variants to CC-BY licences (which, I’ve realized, cannot be met by using CC-BY-NC), and approaches
to monograph publications. The current debates are valuable in this respect.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

Article Processing Charges (APCs), are fully met up front so that copies-of-record can be made freely available under arrangements such as the Creative Commons CC-BY-NC licence. This was our key argument in the Finch Group report, and the case has been remade

<span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Stevan – here are two quotations from Stuart Shieber’s paper which make the point about the significance of moving to full Open Access to copy-of-record. The Finch Report, however imperfect, was
about the transition to this. “Open-access journals don’t charge for access, but that doesn’t mean they eschew revenue entirely. Open-access journals are just selling a different good, and therefore participating in a different market. Instead of selling access
to readers (or the readers’ proxy, the libraries), they sell publisher services to the authors (or to the authors’ proxy, their research funders). In fact there are now over 8,500 open-access journals listed in the Directory of Open Access Journals. Some of
them have been mentioned already on this panel: Linguistic Discovery, Semantics and Pragmatics. The majority of existing open-access journals, like those journals, don’t charge authorside article-processing charges (APCs). But in the end APCs seems to me the
most reasonable, reliable, scalable, and efficient revenue mechanism for open-access journals. This move from reader-side subscription fees to author-side APCs has dramatic ramifications for the structure of the market that the publisher participates in”.
And later: “So journals compete for authors in a way they don’t for readers, and this competition leads to much greater efficiency. Open-access publishers are highly motivated to provide better services at lower price to compete for authors’ article submissions.
We actually see evidence of this competition on both price and quality happening in the market.”<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The Finch report recommended downgrading cost-free Green OA self-archiving in repositories to just preservation archiving and instead double-paying pre-emptively for Gold OA (publisher’s PDF of
record, CC-BY) while worldwide journal subscriptions still need to be paid, and only allowing UK authors to publish in journals that don’t offer Gold if their Green embargo does not exceed 6-12 months. <u></u><u></u></span></p>

<span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">This not only wastes a great deal of scarce UK research money but it gives publishers the incentive to offer hybrid Gold (continue charging subscriptions but offer Gold for individual articles for
an extra Gold OA fee), it restricts free choice of journals, antagonizing authors, and it encourages journals to adopt and extend Green OA embargoes beyond the 6-12 limit, thus making Green OA harder to mandate for other countries,
