<p><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif;color:#212121">First of all, thank you very much for reading and for your interesting comments on the new article about monitoring OA article metadata from Knowledge Exchange (KE). <br>
<br>
We agree that OA metadata from publishers should be available not only to consortia but to funders as well as at an institutional level. Ideally, the metadata should be delivered in an interoperable format, so that data can be stored and transferred from accounting
systems to institutional repositories and other relevant systems.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif;color:#212121"><br>
As consortia already get metadata at journal level from publishers, KE wanted to investigate if this was the case for OA article metadata.<br>
<br>
The study shows that publishers are able to and do provide article metadata to consortia even though much can be improved. <br>
<br>
KE hopes to inspire stakeholders to use the metadata checklist - when asking publishers for OA article metadata. The checklist and reporting template are free to use. Getting OA metadata can help to get an overview of the costs of OA publications.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif;color:#212121"><br>
Whether or not it should be consortia, funders or institutions that are responsible for collecting data, we will leave for others to decide. We would, however, suggest that monitoring happens in a coordinated way and that consortia could play a role in collecting
this data. </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div id="divtagdefaultwrapper">
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Thank you for sharing this document, this is very informative.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">A comment on the approach: while good intentions are obvious here and the overall goal of full open access is one that we share, the monitoring involved (demanding article-level metadata from publishers
which in turn requires author and funder metadata in effect imposing upstream technical requirements) appears to be problematic for several reasons.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Monitoring via publisher offsetting agreements is Inefficient in comparison with institutional OA repository and IR: when a researcher receives grant funding that is administered through a university
or research organization, the organization is already tracking the individual researcher and the funding. This is necessary for accountability purposes; the primary focus of monitoring the use of funding is, and should be, ensuring that funds are spent on
doing research rather than lining peoples' pockets or subsidizing vacations. Institutional OA policy and services do not require an additional layer of tracking of individual researchers and their grants. If works are deposited in the IR, OA status can be
determined locally, and reported consortially or nationally if desired.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">As a researcher with funding, my institution and funding agency both have reporting expectations. A funding agency could simply ask for a report on how the researcher has met the OA policy as part
of the final report. For some researchers, this might inspire post-hoc OA action. Similarly, an institution can ask researchers to report on OA policy compliance, just as researchers are expected to meet policy requirements for research ethics and accountability. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">More important, the impact of technical developments for monitoring seem highly likely to lock in what should be considered a publishing model based on print (journals and books, optimized for the
printing press and postal system) that should be regarded as in the process of becoming obsolete. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">As an open researcher, very little of my work would be reflected in the monitoring system described. Attempting to expand the monitoring system to include new formats such as open data and research
blogs would multiply the inefficiencies of monitoring and likely stifle innovation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">There are compelling public interest arguments for global open access. There are a lot of details to figure out in the shift to OA, but let's not lose sight of the big picture, the potential for
uniting humanity in a common quest for knowledge, in the process. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
