Parallel publishing reminder system David Lawrence Department of Publishing Infrastructure Linköping University Library

Reality: The Researcher  Has no time  Relatively low understanding of copyright, in general  Did not read the copyright transfer agreement  Has an alternative view on “authors’ last draft”  Fails to see the benefits of (quality) publication registration

Conclusion  Researcher-driven parallel publishing will never be high-volume, correctly executed.

Parallel Publishing Activities at LiU – Began late 2007 – Authors can do it themselves, but from the beginning LiU library has offered a centralized service – From registration to parallel publishing – When the publisher’s pdf can be used, parallel publishing occurs “automatically” – In other cases, researchers are contacted: instructions to send appropriate file(s) – Library stays on top of copyright, linking, embargo… rules – Centrally handled posts have much higher quality – TALK TO RESEARCHERS!!! – MANY TIMES!!!

Parallel Publishing Workflow – Each week: list of the latest publications from Linköping from ISI (~monthly, lists from PubMed and Scopus) – List is parsed automatically: – Sherpa is used to determine the rules for parallel publishing – For Linköping authors, link made to personnel database – created and sent to all LiU authors when author input for parallel publishing required – Publication registered in DiVA – When publisher’s pdf can be used, file is obtained from journal; otherwise wait for file(s) from authors – Merge figs, tables and text – Add title page (information auto-extracted from registered info in DiVA and from Sherpa) – Upload file, set embargo

Interpretation of Sherpa  Overall:  can  restricted  Embargo:  embargo  Journal’s pdf ok:  Publishers version/PDF may be used,  Publishers PDF may be used,  Publishers version/PDF may be used on authors personal or institutional website,  Publisher PDF may be used,  Publisher's version/PDF may be used,  Publisher's version/PDF can be used on author's or employers web site,  Authors’ last draft:  Anything else  except: “American Chemical Society”

16 Hej Svante ! Gratulerar till din senaste publikation i Journal of Applied Probability: The probability of the Alabama paradox Denna tidskrift tillåter parallellpublicering (dvs. göra fulltexten av artikeln fritt tillgänglig via en webbsida som t.ex. LiU E-Press). Flera studier de senaste åren har visat att parallellpublicering leder till ökad citering av artiklarna (för mer information om parallellpublicering se som i ljuset av dagens ranknings- och utvärderingsteknik är av stor betydelse. En av många services vi erbjuder på LiU E-Press är parallellpublicering av artiklar. Om du är intresserad behöver du endast: (1)Via e-post skicka mig den version av artikeln som du skickade till förlaget. Ofta är det ett MS Word-dokument (om figurer och tabeller finns som separata filer, e-posta filerna till mig så lägger jag in dem i artikeln) men LaTeX går också bra (beträffande LaTeX är jag tacksam om ni konverterar filen till pdf, men det är inte absolut nödvändigt). Vi tar hand om resten vad gäller parallellpubliceringen. Om du har några frågor eller är osäker på fördelarna med parallellpublicering, tveka inte att kontakta mig. Vänliga hälsningar David

To be resolved  A few false negatives  Very few false positives (author must get permission)  Need a database of addresses for employees

Experience  It takes time for people to “accept” the s as being more than spam  Best if it is coordinated with publicity  Many will not read the details of the instructions  1 person per uni will object to getting the s  A number will accuse you of advocating illegal activity

Breaking News  We have begun a project to clarify the parallel publishing rules for journals not in Sherpa.  Beginning with a list from DiVA, journal articles registered last 2 years, non-matched against Sherpa  Steingrimur contacting each to determine their rules  Plan to send this database to Sherpa  Stage 2: chapters

Conclusions  A reminder system is relatively simple  The single action that gives the biggest result for parallel publishing
