ROARMAP: 142nd Institutional Green OA Mandate: Instituto Politécnico de Viseu Posted: 14 Apr 2012 08:22 AM PDT |
PMC & UKPMC Should Harvest From Institutional Repositories Posted: 14 Apr 2012 08:13 AM PDT mailman.ecs.soton.ac.uk 1. The harvesting of Institutional repository (IR) content by central repositories (CRs) such as PMC and UKPMC is being recommended as a SUPPLEMENT to CRs' current content. 2. The purpose is to help open the door to funder mandates designating direct IR deposit as the means of fulfilling the funder mandate, and thereby to facilitate the adoption of deposit mandates by institutions for all of their research output, not just the output covered by funder mandates. 3. The immediate benefit of supplementing PMC and UKPMC content with harvested IR content is (3a) that it increases PMC/UKPMC content (with existing IR biomedical content) and (3b) it makes the content that is embargoed in UK/PMC (for 6 to 12 months or more) immediately accessible via the IR link (or, for IRs' embargoed content, via the IR's automated email-eprint-request Button). 4. The metadata and rights specification of this supplementary IR content will not be as rich, but that is incomparably less important than the additional open access to research that will be immediately provided. |
