<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Dear all,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>over the past few weeks Bianca Kramer and I have been test driving the new option in Web of Science to filter publications by OA-status. This option has replaced the earlier filter that only determined OA status at the journal level and thus only had papers
from full gold OA journals as positives. The new filter uses oaDOI from ImpactStory and is thus able to detect much more, and at a granular level. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Of course it is early days and there are still methodological and other caveats, but it seemed important to assess if this data could inform the OA community on progress, reliably show the various levels of OA by field, country, institution, funder etc.
and point at positive examples.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All this and more, such as a case study diving into the various types of OA (green, hybrid, gold, bronze) is in our preprint at PeerJ that is now live here:</div>
<div><br>

<div><a href="https://doi.org/10.7287/peerj.preprints.3520v1" target="_blank" style="font-size: 10pt;">https://doi.org/10.7287/peerj.preprints.3520v1</a> </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We very much value your feedback. Because all researchers and policymakers (with access to WoS, not trivial) can now easily get these detailed OA data, it seems very important to gauge the value and applicability of the new WoS filter.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Of course we shared all the data.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Best,</span></div>

</div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Across the world there is growing interest in open access publishing among researchers, institutions,
funders and publishers alike. It is assumed that open access levels are growing, but hitherto the exact levels and patterns of open access have been hard to determine and detailed quantitative studies are scarce. Using newly available open access status data
from oaDOI in Web of Science we are now able to explore year-on-year open access levels across research fields, languages, countries, institutions, funders and topics, and try to relate the resulting patterns to disciplinary, national and institutional contexts.
With data from the oaDOI API we also look at the detailed breakdown of open access by types of gold open access (pure gold, hybrid and bronze), using universities in the Netherlands as an example. There is huge diversity in open access levels on all dimensions,
with unexpected levels for e.g. Portuguese as language, Astronomy & Astrophysics as research field, countries like Tanzania, Peru and Latvia, and Zika as topic. We explore methodological issues and offer suggestions to improve conditions for tracking open
access status of research output. Finally, we suggest potential future applications for research and policy development. We have shared all data and code openly.</span></div>
