@coar_repositories report on the impact of AI bots and crawlers on open repositories:

💬 "The recent rise in aggressive bots activity could potentially result in repositories limiting access to their resources for both human and machine users – leading to a situation where the value of the global repository network is substantially diminished."

#COAR (@coar_repositories) is exactly right about what's wrong with the #ACS and #IEEE demands that their authors pay them a fee for the right to deposit their accepted author manuscripts (#AAMs) in #OpenAccess #repositories.
coar-repositories.org/news-upd

<blockquote>
* The charges applied are completely arbitrary and not based on any real service provision (for example, IEEE applies a fee to authors who want to apply a CC-BY licence to their AAM; and ACM applies a fee for removing the embargo period). They are just another funding stream for publishers that are already making huge profits.
* Deposit fees disadvantage authors who do not have funding to pay
* These fees amount to #DoubleDipping since the final published version of the AAM is made available behind a paywall with no discount
* This practice prevents universities and research organisations from creating an accessible record of their scholarly output.
</blockquote>

And COAR is exactly right about the solution: author #RightsRetention. When authors retain key rights, they don't need publisher permission to deposit their works in OA repositories -- or to use and reuse them in other important ways as well.

PS: See my similar argument on a related ACS move last year.

Many thanks to @AuthorsAlliance for launching this form to collect author experiences under the new federal #OpenAccess policies, including the #NIH policy.
authorsalliance.org/fedpublica

"We are particularly interested in learning about:
* Challenges with #publishers whose policies may disallow their uploading of articles to agency-designated #repositories;
* Common questions or points of confusion expressed by grantees;
* Confusion or questions about agency guidance;
* Other technical, legal, or practical barriers to depositing articles."

Note to #librarians: When you encounter authors facing any kind of problem with a fed OA policy (understanding, compliance, publishing), please refer them to this form. The more we document the problems, the more we can facilitate solutions.

Over the past few months, I went to two core #repositories to sample several #marine #sediment cores and meet some of my new #collaborators in person.
First, the LSCE (Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l’Environnement UMR 8212) core repository in mid-April.
Second, the EPOC (Environnements et Paléoenvironnements Océaniques et Continentaux UMR 5805) core repository in early June.
Hopefully, these core repository visits would be the first of many!

New study: "#OpenAccess via #repositories (#GreenOA) correlates with higher citation counts and a lower probability of zero citations. In contrast, OA via the publisher's website without an explicit #OpenLicense (#BronzeOA) is associated with higher citation counts but also with a higher probability of zero citations."

arXiv.orgA two-stage model for factors influencing citation countsThis work aims to study a count response random variable, the number of citations of a research paper, affected by some explanatory variables through a suitable regression model. Due to the fact that the count variable exhibits substantial variation since the sample variance is larger than the sample mean, the classical Poisson regression model seems not to be appropriate. We concentrate attention on the negative binomial regression model, which allows the variance of each measurement to be a function of its predicted value. Nevertheless, the process of citations of papers may be divided into two parts. In the first stage, the paper has no citations, and the second part provides the intensity of the citations. A hurdle model for separating the documents with citations and those without citations is considered. The dataset for the empirical application consisted of 43,190 research papers in the field of Economics and Business from 2014-2021, obtained from The Lens database. Citation counts and social attention scores for each article were gathered from Altmetric database. The main findings indicate that both collaboration and funding have a positive impact on citation counts and reduce the likelihood of receiving zero citations. Higher journal impact factors lead to higher citation counts, while lower peer review ratings lead to fewer citations and a higher probability of zero citations. Mentions in news, blogs, and social media have varying but generally limited effects on citation counts. Open access via repositories (green OA) correlates with higher citation counts and a lower probability of zero citations. In contrast, OA via the publisher's website without an explicit open license (bronze OA) is associated with higher citation counts but also with a higher probability of zero citations.
