[Oa-italia] Fwd: Change in IEEE Author Policy: Impact on MIT Faculty Open Access Policy

[maddalena morando]

Cari colleghi,
giro questa informazione sul trattamento dei full text delle IEEE 
relativi al deposito su archivi istituzionali.
Il documento rilevante è il seguente  
http://www.ieee.org/documents/authorversionfaq.pdf
in cui si dice che dal 2011 è consentito il deposito del solo draft 
dell'articolo, ma per tutto ciò che è depositato prima del 2011 è 
concessa la versione editoriale e non deve essere sostituita.

Per noi politecnico, che abbiamo una grossa percentuale di articoli 
pubblicati presso la IEEE questa è un'ottima notizia perchè ci consente 
di importare tutti i full text di articoli IEEE nel nostro archivio OA 
senza ulteriori controlli di correttezza. Spero che la notizia sia utile 
anche ad altri atenei.

Cordiali saluti
Maddalena

Dear Ellen,

The IEEE policy change is a good thing, a blessing in disguise.

Self archiving of the accepted final draft is what the policy and procedure should have been all along. That's the procedure that will work, and the policy that can and will scale to all other institutions and funders. It's also what will usher in universal Green OA and then downsizing and transition to Gold OA, with publishers downsizing to just peer review. If you had kept relying on importing the publisher's PDF, that would not have been possible and the policy and procedure would not have scaled.

Best wishes,

Stevan

In January 2011, the IEEE changed a key author policy, discontinuing the right authors had to post the final published version of their IEEE articles on the web. This alters what authors can do with their work and how the MIT Faculty Open Access Policy can be implemented for these papers.

The policy change is not retrospective: papers posted before January do not need to be taken down from the web. But from January on, authors may post only their accepted manuscripts, not the final published version of their articles.

As a consequence of this policy change, the MIT Libraries can no longer copy the final published articles from IEEE’s database and post them in MIT’s research repository, Dspace a MIT, as we have been doing since the faculty passed their Open Access Policy: http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/49433/

Instead, the Libraries are now requesting that authors submit their final accepted manuscripts of IEEE papers for deposit under the Policy. Papers can be uploaded through a simple web form -- http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/49433/submit -- and will appear in the Open Access Articles Collection.
