The advantages of self-archiving research articles on institutional repositories or personal academic websites are numerous and relevant for society and individual researchers. Yet, self-archiving has been adopted by a small minority of active scholars.
Aiming to further inform educational work on open and impactful academic publishing in the digital era, we posed selected questions to Stevan Harnad 30 years after his "subversive proposal" to maximize research impact by self-archiving scholarly articles in university-hosted or disciplinary online repositories to make published articles openly available.
Self-archiving is even more needed today than it was when Professor Harnad called for it when the World Wide Web was in its infancy; OA academic publishing is a necessary but not sufficient condition for impactful research; self-archiving on a personal academic website is often more effective than in institutional repositories.
在机构知识库或个人学术网站上自行存档研究文章有诸多优点,对社会和个体研究人员都很重要。然而,只有极少数活跃学者采用了自行存档的方式。
为了进一步为数字时代开放且有影响力的学术出版教育工作提供信息,在斯特凡·哈纳德提出“颠覆性提议”30年后,我们向他提出了一些特定问题。该提议是通过在大学主办的或学科在线知识库中自行存档学术文章,以使已发表文章公开可用,从而最大化研究影响力。
如今,自行存档比哈纳德教授在万维网尚处于初期时呼吁推行时更加必要;开放获取学术出版是有影响力研究的必要但不充分条件;在个人学术网站上自行存档通常比在机构知识库中更有效。
