We can’t just declare that we’re done listening and plow ahead with “solutions” without regard for impact or consequences. Of course, if we’re of the mindset that this search for common ground is just a waste of time or some subterfuge bent on delaying open, then we’re not likely to embrace this approach.

The executive summary is this: “Open” is a very diverse space. Not only do our definitions of open differ greatly, so too do our perceptions of the etymology of open (whether we use BOAI as the starting point or just one point among many). Also, critically, our open goals and motives differ greatly in this community; open progress and approaches vary by field of study; and different approaches have different focus points, principles, incentives, and financial considerations. In short, our challenge of creating a more open future for research defies one-size-fits all description, and it certainly defies one-size fits-all solution.<span class="m_7664192666020940969apple-converted-space"> </span><u></u><u></u></p></div></div><div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p></div></div><div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Recognizing and respecting this diversity, OSI’s recommendations, which are based on five years of global consultations in collaboration with UNESCO, are that a just and workable global plan for the future of open must do the following:<u></u><u></u></p></div></div><div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p></div></div><ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc"><li class="m_7664192666020940969MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">DISCOVER critical missing pieces of the open scholarship puzzle so we can design our open reforms more effectively;<u></u><u></u></li><li class="m_7664192666020940969MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">DESIGN, build and deploy an array of much needed open infrastructure tools to help accelerate the spread and adoption of open scholarship practices;<u></u><u></u></li><li class="m_7664192666020940969MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">WORK TOGETHER on finding common ground perspective solutions that address key issues and concerns (see OSI’s Common Ground policy paper for more detail); and<u></u><u></u></li><li class="m_7664192666020940969MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">REDOUBLE OUR COLLECTIVE EFFORTS to educate and listen to the research community about open solutions, and in doing so design solutions that better meet the needs of research.<u></u><u></u></li></ul><div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p></div></div><div><div><p class="MsoNormal">In pursuing these actions, the international community should:<u></u><u></u></p></div></div><div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p></div></div><ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc"><li class="m_7664192666020940969MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">Work and contribute together (everyone, including publishers);<span class="m_7664192666020940969apple-converted-space"> </span><u></u><u></u></li><li class="m_7664192666020940969MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">Work on all pieces of the puzzle so we can clear a path for open to succeed;<span class="m_7664192666020940969apple-converted-space"> </span><u></u><u></u></li><li class="m_7664192666020940969MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">Discover missing pieces of information to ensure our efforts are evidence-based;<span class="m_7664192666020940969apple-converted-space"> </span><u></u><u></u></li><li class="m_7664192666020940969MsoListParagraph" style="margin-top:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt">Embrace diversity.

The concept of a ‘global knowledge commons’ builds on the vision of the original Budapest Open Access Initiative (2002) for the potential of combining academic tradition and the internet to remove various access barriers to the scholarly literature, thus laying the foundation for an unprecedented public good, uniting humanity in a common quest for knowledge. The global knowledge commons is a universal sharing of the knowledge of humankind, free for all to access (recognizing reasons for limiting sharing in some circumstances such as to protect individual privacy), and free for everyone qualified to contribute to. The three models are Plan S / cOAlition S, an EU-led initiative to transition all of scholarly publishing to an open access model on a short timeline; the Global Sustainability Coalition for Open Science Services (SCOSS), a recent initiative that builds on Ostrom’s study of the commons; and PubMedCentral (PMC) International, building on the preservation and access to the medical research literature provided by the U.S. National Institutes of Health to support other national repositories of funded research and exchange of materials between regions. The research will involve analysis of official policy and background briefing documents on the three initiatives and relevant historical projects, such as the Research Council U.K.’s block grants for article processing charges, the EU-led OA2020 initiative, Europe PMC and the short-lived PMC-Canada. Theoretical analysis will draw on Ostrom’s work on the commons, theories of development, under-development, epistemic / knowledge inequity and the concepts of Chan and colleagues (2011) on the importance of moving beyond north-to-south access to knowledge (charity model) to include south-to-south and south-to-north (equity model). This model analysis contributes to build a comparative view of transcontinental efforts for a global knowledge commons building with shared values of open access, sharing and collaboration, in contrast to the growing trend of commodification of scholarly knowledge evident in both traditional subscriptions / purchase-based scholarly publishing and in commercial open access publishing. We anticipate that our findings will indicate that a digital world of inclusiveness and reciprocity is possible, but cannot be taken for granted, and policy support is crucial. Global communication and information policy have much to contribute towards the development of a sustainable global knowledge commons.</span><u></u><u></u></p><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#111111">Full text: </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:#111111"><a href="https://ruor.uottawa.ca/handle/10393/40664" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#b12930">https://ruor.uottawa.ca/handle/10393/40664</span></a></span><u></u><u></u></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#111111">Cite as: Morrison, H. & Rahman, R.
