Welcome to Berlin 6 in Düsseldorf!
Five years have passed since the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge
in the Sciences and Humanities was signed, one of the key documents
in the development of a broader movement aiming to make the results of
academic research freely available to a global readership via the Internet. Much
progress has been made in these last five years, and at the same time much
remains to be done – the many presentations, speeches and discussions which
will be held in the following three days here in Düsseldorf will undoubtedly
thematize both the achievements and the challenges associated with open
access. Clearly, change is under way. Universities are showing increased interest
in Open Access and taking action, whether by introducing new policies and
mandates, or by disseminating information and holding discussions in working
groups and governing bodies. Libraries and universities actively support not
only open access to electronic journals and digital repositories maintained
elsewhere, but are increasingly involved in content generation itself, launching
publishing services and working directly with scholars who want to make their
work available on the Web. Commercial publishers are experimenting with new
access and business models tailored to their customers' changing demands,
under the impression that open access has made significant inroads in a range
of different disciplines. Policymakers have long seen the advantages of open
access because of its obvious financial benefits for the taxpayer and because
of its value to the public. Open access, one could say, has matured from an idea
into a practice.
But what about the most pivotal group in this constellation, researchers
themselves? It may be argued that in the past open access been a concern to
those who finance, enable, support and manage scholarly research as much if
not more than to those who conduct it. Certainly individual researchers have
vehemently voiced their support for open access or made the conscious choice
to publish under an OA model. But the overall impression is that there is still
much room for improvement when it comes to the integration of scholarly
communities. It can be speculated without an excess of skepticism that many
researchers neither know nor care very much precisely what legal obligations
their contracts with commercial publishers entail, nor that they find this
situation very problematic. The reasons for this relative ignorance are quickly
enumerated. Researchers are usually less concerned with the how of publishing
than with the what, where and when, and are therefore frequently slower to
embrace open access than the above-mentioned parties (though very significant
differences between disciplines obviously exist). Quite naturally, their

Welcome to Berlin 6 in Düsseldorf!
concerns tend to be personal and practical issues, such as do I have access to
the relevant information (as a reader), how can I effectively disseminate my
work (as a writer) and is the integrity and quality of what is published retained
and assured (as a reviewer), versus the more macroscopic view of research and
access to knowledge taken by librarians, university administrators and politicians.
While the benefits of open access are certainly seen, the cultural changes
still lag far behind the technical possibilities. The pressing need for a proliferation
of open access is felt by many but by no means all researchers, because of
considerably varying personal and disciplinary demands to scholarly communication
in different areas of academia.
Open access has often been treated as an isolated phenomenon that changes
the how of publishing, but leaves the what, where and when largely unaffected.
Journals, repositories and papers are 'put on the Web' as though we were
handling physical objects, yet not only our means of accessing information
have changed, but the shape of information itself is no longer as it was in the
paper age. Interactive models, visualizations and virtual research environments
enable new ways of investigation and analysis, while hyperlinking and
embedding have reconfigured text from paper-based to digital print. Open
Access not only changes publication, but it will also change the substance of
research and the types of question we ask. Changing Scholarly Communication
in the Knowledge Society, the title of this sixth installment of the Berlin
conference series, points to this evolutionary change that is the natural result
of digitization. Open Access is a prerequisite for entirely new ways of undertaking
science as much as it is a way of reducing public spending, or a means of
making academic knowledge more widely available. The automated filtering,
aggregation and analysis of scientific papers via data mining technologies is
one such future tool in knowledge generation. In the future, the Internet will
increasingly be the place where research itself takes place and not merely a
vehicle for distributing packaged bundles of knowledge in faster, cheaper and
more efficient ways.
It is less the constraints of technology than our use of yesterday's metaphors
for handling knowledge today that limits our potential to generate knowledge
tomorrow. The theme of this conference – a holistic perspective on the future
of scholarly communication, for which open access is a crucial prerequisite –
not only points to the challenges and complexities of academic research in the
globalized knowledge environment we live in today, but also to its unique op-
portunities. In the coming three days we look forward to describing, discussing
and shaping this environment together with you.
We would like to thank all institutions and individuals who have been involved
in the organization of this conference, in particular the session chairs and
presenters for their engagement and relentless effort, the Max Planck Digital
Library for its leadership in bringing the event to Düsseldorf, the University of
Düsseldorf for hosting it and our partners hbz, ZB MED and especially the Ministry
for Innovation, Science, Research and Technology of North Rhine-Westphalia
for supporting it.

Tony Hey, Microsoft Research
Horst Forster, European Commission
The eResearch research agenda is to provide the researchers with the tools,
technology and infrastructure to enable them to focus on research rather than
the complications of collaboration and access to facilities. Powerful software
services will be widely deployed on top of the academic research networks to
form the necessary ‘cyberinfrastructure’ to provide a collaborative research
environment for the global academic community.
The difficulties in combining data and information from distributed sources, the
multi-disciplinary nature of research and collaboration, and the need to move
to present researchers with tooling that enable them to express what they want
to do rather than how to do it highlight the need for an ecosystem of ‘semantic
computing’ technologies. Such technologies will further facilitate information
sharing and discovery, will enable reasoning over information, and will allow us
to start thinking about knowledge and how it can be handled by computers.
This talk will review the elements of this vision and describe how not only
scientists and engineers but also social science and humanities researchers are
collaborating with computer scientists and the IT industry to create a ‘smart
cyberinfrastructure’. A key part of the global research cyberinfrastructure
will be services for accessing digital research repositories containing text,
data and software. Open access in some form or other to such repositories is
likely to become widespread in the near future. In addition, the whole nature
of a scholarly communication will change dramatically as Web 2.0 and other
technologies allow the creation of live documents linked to RSS feeds and data,
supplemented by blogs and wikis.
Widespread and efficient access to scientific information is crucial for research
and innovation in today‘s knowledge based society. The Commission has a
leading role in this process as a policy making institution and as a funding
organization.
Research results stemming from publicly funded programmes should be made
openly available as much as possible. Considerable testing and experimentation
is taking place today with open access publishing. The keynote will take
some stock of the current developments taking place as regards Open Access
and will highlight some of the issues that would need to be addressed to enable
a wider access to scientific information.
The different actions that the Commission is taking in the area of scientific
information will be presented, including the recently adopted pilot initiative
on open access to peer reviewed research articles in its Seventh Research
Framework Programme (FP7) and the PEER project, a joint initiative of leading
research organizations and scientific publishers to measure the impact of
concrete open access policies.
Open Access is Changing Research
Philippe Aigrain, Sopinspace
Many promoters of open access see it as a means to do better what would be
an essentially unchanged scientific or technical research. The talk will highlight
how open access also changes the nature of scientific publications and even
of scientific work. It will describe signs of change in how scientific papers are
written, who reads them and the impact on the organization of scientific communities.
It will position open access in the more general context of science
commons, and review the debates on open access priorities in this context.

SESSION 1
KEyNOTE 5
Both open access and technical interoperability are requirements of scholarly
communication – rather than ends in themselves. Both provide novel added
values but sometimes at the cost of additional workload. Looking between
scholarly necessity and technical feasibility, the presentation will provide an
overview of the most important and the most recent technical developments
aiming at making open access an integral part of everyday life in scholarship
– ranging from office applications to the federation of publication archives at
an international scale. By giving insights in the results of initiatives such as
DRIVER it will highlight core policy issues for the development of publication
archives.
Next-Generation Implications of Open Access
Paul Ginsparg, Physics and Information Science, Cornell University/ArXiv
True open access to scientific publications not only gives readers the possibility
to read articles without paying subscription, but also makes the material
available for automated ingestion and harvesting by 3rd parties. Once articles
and associated data become universally treatable as computable objects,
openly available to 3rd party aggregators and value-added services, what new
services can we expect, and how will they change the way that researchers
interact with their scholarly communications infrastructure?
I will discuss straightforward applications of existing ideas and services,
including citation analysis, collaborative filtering, external database linkages,
interoperability, and other forms of automated markup, and speculate on the
sociology of the next generation of users.
Mr. Ginsparg‘s speech will be preceded by a shorter presentation by
Stefano Bianco (INFN)
Since long before the advent of modern academia the pursuit of knowledge has
been a decidedly collaborative enterprise. At the beginning of the 21st century
a range of new and powerful digital tools are available to scholars, making the
dissemination and discussion of research results easier, faster and cheaper
than ever before.
Yet it seems that wikis, blogs, social networking and collaborative tagging – all
of which can be appropriated for research – are only slowly catching on in
academic environments. Traditional publication formats such journals in the
natural and social sciences and monographs in the humanities are instead
transplanted into the electronic domain, with little change of their form. How
does hypertext-based, multimedia publishing reconfigure the form of scholarly
communication? What is the potential of lab wikis, open notebook science and
social networking for researchers? How will the way we do research be affected
by the way we (digitally) communicate? This session will approach these questions
from a multidisciplinary perspective.

SESSION 2
Open Access for Development, Open Access around the World
This session will look at the current status of open access in developing countries
and examine what holds them back from making progress faster. The past decade
has witnessed a big change in the geography of science with several developing
and middle-income countries, notably China and South Korea, accounting for a
constantly increasing share of the world‘s published scientific literature. Unlike
the better-known and well-established research institutions in the West (including
funding agencies such as NIH and the Wellcome Trust), most institutions in the
developing countries are not in a position to negotiate with dominant journal publishers
from a position of strength. It is against this background the panelists will
examine what could be done to advance open access in the developing countries.
Will an S&T alliance of developing countries (such as Brazil, China, India and South
Africa) make a difference? What role can the advanced countries and international
organizations play?

The Costs and Benefits of Open Access:
Business Models and Public Investment
Toll-free access to publicly-funded research outputs brings benefits to all
stakeholders in scholarly communication, authors, other researchers, research
institutions, publishers, and – last but not least – the taxpayer. The cost of
providing these benefits can be met through different business and economic
models. This session will explore a number of different models. One speaker explores
the return upon public investment in research provided by open access
to research outputs. Two presentations will cover new business models for the
payment of the cost of open access publishing, and the final presentation will
explore the cost incurred by a research institution in maintaining a repository,
in relation to the benefits to the institution from author-deposit of research
publications in the repository. The session will end with a panel discussion.

Open Access and Open Standards:
What is their Relation? The Microsoft Office Open XML Case
The accessibility information of electronic formats is dependent of access to
the appropriate software. The world of texts is dominated by the doc-format of
Word the word processor of the Microsoft Office Suite.
Gradually the awareness for the importance of file format standards is
increasing. One important development in this respect is the creation of an
ISO standard for text files. Since May 2006 the Open Document Format (ODF)
has been accepted as ISO Norm 26300. In an unprecedented decision ISI
accepted a second ODF in March 2008: the Microsoft proposed "Office Open
XML" is now registered as ISO DIS 29500.
The speakers of this session will explore the relevance of standards for Open
Access and will trace the causes and consequences of competing standards
within ISO.

Open Data and Reproducible Research:
Blurring the Boundaries between Research and Publication
In many scientific and technical fields, research is increasingly based on published
data. Researchers also often publish detailed instructions or even executable
recipes for reproducing their results. Combined with inexpensive networked computing
and mass storage, these trends can radically accelerate the pace of research,
by lowering barriers to entry and decreasing the time required to reproduce and
extend innovations. These changes may also modify the balance between data
collection and data analysis, and between experimental and theoretical work.
Nevertheless, these potentially revolutionary developments are mostly happening
below the surface, with uneven progress across disciplines, and little general
discussion of how to guide or react to the process. The goal of this panel is to
publicize the experience of several communities who have up to two decades of
experience with what Jon Claerbout has termed "reproducible research", and to
begin a general discussion of the broader implications for scientific, technical and
scholarly publication.

SESSION 6
The Role of Scholarly Societies for Open Access
The community has come a long way to discover how crucial strong personal
support from the scientists and scholars themselves is for the success of the
Open Access paradigm. Scientists in turn are difficult to address as a group.
Attempts have thus been made to use their institutional affiliation as an anchor
point – hence the discussion about 'mandating' Open Access. By contrast,
scholarly societies may be in a better position both as lobbying organizations
and as publishers to convince their members of the benefits of Open Access.
Furthermore, the legitimate costs of publishing need to be distributed between
all interested parties in a sustainable way. Panel presentations and discussion
will touch at such issues and will also reflect the cultural differences between
the sciences and the humanities: aspects that may seem perfectly clear in a
given scientific culture may not be that evident to members of another one.

hbz Symposium
"The Open Access Landscape in Germany"
11.11.2008, Industrie-Club Düsseldorf
For more than thirty years the Service Center for Libraries of North Rhine-
Westphalia (hbz) has stood for knowledge, information and innovation within
the field of library and information science. As a public institution associated
with the North Rhine-Westphalian Ministry of Innovation, Science, Research
and Technology, it meets its objectives in close cooperation with its customer
libraries.
The hbz is a central institution that provides services and development for
university libraries of the federal state as well as for other library types in and
beyond North Rhine-Westphalia.
Via the initiative Digital Peer Publishing (DiPP), launched by the hbz in 2004, we
have been engaged in the open access movement for several years. The DiPP
platform, which is maintained and supported by the hbz, offers a wide range of
services for scholars and libraries building and operating independent publishing
projects. Today, 14 eJournals are published under DiPP’s roof.
As one of the sponsors of the Berlin 6 Open Access Conference the hbz is
pleased to welcome speakers and participants to discuss the role and progress
of open access in Germany within a special symposium on November 11, 2008 at
the Industrie-Club Düsseldorf.

Bildungsökonomische Perspektiven von Open Access im Hochschulwesen
Prof. Dr. Dieter Timmermann (Rektor der Universität Bielefeld) und
Dr. Michael Höppner (Direktor der Universitätsbibliothek Bielefeld)
Open Access wird in den Hochschulen in aller Regel mit der Erwartung verbunden,
dass dieses digitale Publikationsmedium für alle Beteiligten einen hohen
Nutzen haben wird, d.h. für die Nutzer, für die Bibliotheken, für die Hochschulen
und letztlich für das Hochschulsystem insgesamt und dessen Finanziers. Der
erwartete Nutzen kann in Einspareffekten (z.B. Kostensenkungen, eingesparte
Ausgaben für wissenschaftliche Publikationen, Senkung des zeitlichen Aufwandes
für die Produktion und die Beschaffung von Publikationen), in Effizienzgewinnen
(z.B. Zugang zu einer höheren Anzahl von Publikationen bzw. Informationen
pro Stunde bzw. pro Euro) oder in Ertragswirkungen bestehen (z.B.
schnellere Gewinnung von Reputation, Steigerung von Reputation, schneller
steigender Impactfaktor von Publikationen). Im Vortrag wird der Versuch unternommen,
die vielfältigen Effekte adressatenbezogen analytisch zu präzisieren,
zu differenzieren und – sofern möglich – mit empirischen Daten beispielhaft
zu illustrieren. Darüber hinaus wird der Vortrag auch auf die Erfahrungen bei
der Umsetzung der erklärten Open-Access-Strategie der Universität Bielefeld
eingehen.
Der wissenschaftliche Publikationsprozess und
die Sichtbarkeit von Open Access Repositories
Prof. Dr. Peter Schirmbacher (Leiter des Computer- und Medienservice der
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin und Professor für Informationsmanagement
am Institut für Bibliotheks- und Informationswissenschaft der Humboldt-
Universität zu Berlin)
Im Beitrag sollen zunächst der Charakter des wissenschaftlichen elektronischen
Publizierens und der erreichte Stand beim Aufbau von digitalen Repositorien in
Deutschland dargestellt werde, um dann einen entsprechenden Vergleich mit
Repositorien in anderen Industrienationen vorzunehmen. Ausgehend von dieser
Bestandsanalyse, die sich auf die Arbeiten der DINI-Arbeitsgruppe Elektronisches
Publizieren und Untersuchungen am Institut für Bibliotheks- und Informationswissenschaft
der Humboldt-Universität stützt, wird eine Diskussion von heutigen
Publikationsmodellen vorgenommen, um damit eine qualitative Einordnung von
Repositorien vorzunehmen. National und international existiert eine Vielzahl
von Aktivitäten, die auf der Basis von aufzustellenden Qualitätskriterien eine
Antwort auf die im Titel aufgeworfene Problemstellung ermöglicht.
Open Access und Bibliotheken –
Lösung alter oder Schaffung neuer Probleme?
Dr. Harald Müller (Leiter der Bibliothek des Max-Planck-Instituts für
ausländisches Recht und Völkerrecht Heidelberg)
Die Zeitschriftenkrise hat Bibliotheken in Existenznot gebracht. Weit über der
Inflationsrate liegende Preissteigerungen zwangen Bibliotheken zur Kündigung
von Zeitschriftenabonnements. Wissenschaftliche Autoren geben das von ihnen
produzierte Wissen kostenlos an Verlage, damit es Bibliotheken anschließend
wieder gegen Geld für sie erwerben. Mit dem Open Access Prinzip sollen einige
dieser Probleme behoben werden. Open Access befreit aber nicht von den
Fesseln des Urheberrechts. Mit der Anfang 2008 in Kraft getretenen Urheberrechtsnovelle
(2. Korb) sind sogar neue Probleme entstanden. Stichwort
unbekannte Nutzungsarten: Seit einiger Zeit herrscht Streit zwischen Autoren
und Verlagen. Kann ein Autor Online-Rechte für seine Werke an eine Bibliothek
übertragen, oder stehen diese Rechte automatisch den Verlagen zu? Stichwort
Vergütung: Kann ein Autor nachträglich von der einen Open Access Dokumentenserver
betreibenden Bibliothek eine angemessene Vergütung nach § 32
UrhG verlangen?
Die rechtliche Umsetzung von Open Access:
DiPP, Creative Commons und andere Lizenzmodelle
Prof. Dr. Axel Metzger, LL.M
(Institut für Rechtsinformatik der Leibniz Universität Hannover)
Die Berliner Erklärung hat Wissenschaftlicher und Institutionen aufgefordert,
Open Access-Publikationsmodelle zu entwickeln. Bislang fehlt es aber an
allgemein akzeptierten Standards für die rechtliche Umsetzung von Open
Access-Projekten. Wegen der internationalen Verbreitung werden von den
Initiativen vielfach die Creative Commons-Lizenzen verwendet. Diese sind
jedoch nicht spezifisch auf wissenschaftliche Veröffentlichungen zugeschnitten.
Ein zweites Modell bieten die Lizenzen der Digital Peer Publishing Initiative
(DiPP) des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen. Der Vortrag stellt die neue Fassung der
DiPP-Lizenzen vor und stellt sie den Creative Commons-Lizenzen und anderen
Modellen gegenüber.

Bei Springer blicken wir inzwischen auf eine dreijährige Open-Access Erfahrung
zurück. In meinem Beitrag werde ich das spezifische Springer-Modell unter dem
Namen Open Choice kurz darstellen und erläutern, wie es im wissenschaftlichen
Umfeld angenommen und genutzt wird. Ich werde auch am konkreten Beispiel

PKP Workshop
PKP Workshop,
14.11.2008, 11.00–18.00 Uhr
Room 23.21.00.81, University of Düsseldorf
Are you concerned about the spiraling cost of academic journals? Do you worry
that access to critical research information is under threat? Interested in getting
involved in online publishing, or making your existing publication process
more efficient? This one day, hands-on workshop will range from the topical to
the very practical. The first half of the workshop will describe the local, national,
and global impact of the Public Knowledge Project, including an overview
of PKP’s entire software suite. A collaborative initiative of the University of
British Columbia, Stanford, and Simon Fraser University, the Public Knowledge
Project has grown from a small research project into a global, communitybased,
open access publishing alternative, providing open source software for
hundreds of researchers, editors, and librarians around the world. The second
half of the workshop will provide a complete, hands-on overview of the Open
Journal Systems (OJS) online publication management software, including an
examination of the publishing process, peer review and editorial workflow, web
site customization, and tips for increasing journal visibility. Participants will
come away with the ability to start up and operate their own online journal
management system.
We encourage participants to bring their laptops to the session for hands-on
practice with Open Journal Systems (OJS).
