OA @ NPG

• NPG is actively expanding the open access options it offers to authors, with new open access journal launches and open access options on many subscription journals.

• The first of these models were introduced in 2005, with the addition of open access options on 11 journals in 2009.

• Further open access options on a number of journals were introduced in 2010 and 2011.

• Currently, over sixty journals published by NPG offer open access options or are open access.

• NPG published over 2000 open access articles in 2012.

Authors in China and Japan are more receptive to OA publishing.


18

Nature Publishing Group surveysauthors every year, and inJanuary 2013 asked questionsabout OA activity and attitudes.NPG received over 23,000responses to this survey, andrespondents were comprised of amix of authors published in NPG-journals and non-NPG journalsalike.

Some clear differences emergedbetween authors based in Chinaand Japan and those based inthe US and Europe. Firstly, it wassuspected that authors in Chinaand Japan tended to have budgetallocated within their grant forpublication costs – this did indeedto be more common than in theUS and Europe.

19

Those authors who had published under an OA model were asked why.Authors from China and Japan were much more likely to give ‘publishing’reasons for choosing OA – believing that an OA paper would receivemore citations, be read more widely and be published faster.

20

Those authors who had not published OA were asked why not. It isapparent that awareness of OA is much greater in the US and Europe,and that concerns about perceptions of quality seemed to be highest inthe US.

2121

• There is stronger support in the scientific community and more funds available for OA in Asia despite lack of government mandates.

• This translates to unusually high numbers of OA papers in Nature Communications and Scientific Reports from Japan and in particular China.

• Frustrations over lack of visibility of Asian research in the West and a belief that OA will increase visibility may be driving Asian (Japan and China) scientists to publish OA with more determination than their Western colleagues.
