Avoimen julkaisemisen kokonaiskustannukset 2021
-webinaari 16.12.

29.11.2022

Avoimen julkaisemisen kokonaiskustannusten seuranta on valmistunut! Tulokset julkistetaan webinaarissa perjantaina 16.12.2022 klo 10–11.30.

Kansalliskirjaston järjestämässä webinaarissa käydään läpi vuoden 2021 seurannan tuloksia. Paneelikeskusteluun osallistuvat seurantamallityöryhmän jäsenet Janne Pölönen (Julkaisufoorumi), Jyrki Ilva (Kansalliskirjasto), Juho Jussila (Itä-Suomen Yliopisto) ja Sirpa Suonpää (Luonnonvarakeskus). Tilaisuuden juontaa seurantamalliryhmän puheenjohtaja Timo Vilén (FinELib) ja visualisointien toteutuksesta kertoo Valtteri Vainio (CSC).

Avoimen julkaisemisen kokonaiskustannuksia kartoittava kysely toteutettiin Avoimen tieteen ja tutkimuksen (AVOTT) seurantakyselyn yhteydessä vuonna 2022. Kysely lähetettiin kaikille OKM:n julkaisutiedonkeruun piiriin kuuluville suomalaisille yliopistoille, ammattikorkeakouluille ja tutkimuslaitoksille. Vastausprosentti oli erinomainen, iso kiitos kaikille vastanneille!

Kyselyn lisäksi tietoja saatiin FinELib-toimistosta sekä Open APC -palvelusta, johon on koottu tietoja organisaatioiden maksamista kirjoittajamaksuista. Avoimen julkaisemisen kokonaiskustannusten seurantamallin kehittämisestä vastasi Kansalliskirjaston FinELib-toimiston johtama työryhmä.

Seurannan tulokset julkaistaan tiedejatutkimus.fi -sivustolla 16.12.2022 ja seurannan data julkaistaan avoimena vuoden 2023 alussa.
