Open Access Publication Funding / 2022-2024 / Leibniz Institute for Prevention Research and Epidemiology – BIPS GmbH

开放获取(OA)在过去十年里在BIPS变得越来越重要，现在在该研究所的出版文化中发挥着主导作用。随着2016年11月通过开放式获取政策，BIPS表明了其对开放式获取目标的承诺。因此，该研究所图书馆不断扩大其关于开放式获取的咨询和信息服务，有助于BIPS稳步增加对开放式获取的接受度。研究所参与诸如Deal和莱布尼茨协会出版基金等转型合同，也大大促进了研究所开放式获取出版物数量的增加。BIPS相信，开放式获取将继续在未来的科学交流中发挥重要作用。然而，出版系统向开放式获取的转变过程伴随着相当大的挑战，特别是对于相对较小的研究所和图书馆(一人图书馆--OPLs)。很难预测开放式获取出版物所需的年度预算，研究人员越来越需要进行协商和解释。此外，不断上涨的成本是一项重大挑战。该项目旨在促进BIPS出版系统转型进程的进一步进展，以充分发挥开放式获取产生科学知识的潜力。特别是，记录出版费用的程序将进一步优化，以便为对出版费用进行有意义的总体看法奠定基础，并在年度出版费用方面获得更多的规划保障。此外，还将扩大图书馆提供的有关出版物媒体选择和适当许可模式的信息和咨询服务。BIPS认识到，有机会为提高研究机构开放获取费用的透明度作出贡献，特别是在国家范围内。这不仅明确地指支付给出版商的直接费用，而且还指由于行政和日益需要的咨询活动而增加的图书馆工作人员的工作量。

Open Access (OA) has been of increasing importance at BIPS over the past decade and now plays a predominant role in the publication culture of the institute. With the adoption of an OA policy in November 2016, BIPS demonstrated its commitment to the goals of OA. As a result, the institute library has continually expanded its advisory and information services regarding OA, contributing to steadily growing acceptance of OA at BIPS. The participation of the institute in transformation contracts such as DEAL and the publication fund of the Leibniz Association have also contributed significantly to the increase in the amount of OA publications at the institute. BIPS is confident that OA will continue to play a significant role in future scientific communication. However, a transformation process in the publication system towards OA is associated with considerable challenges, especially for comparatively small institutes and libraries (one person libraries—OPLs). It is very difficult to predict the necessary annual budget for OA publications and the researchers have a growing need for consultations and explanations. In addition, the constantly rising costs represent a major challenge.This project is intended to facilitate further progress in the transformation process of the publication system at BIPS in order to fully exploit the potential of OA for generating scientific knowledge. In particular, the processes for recording publication costs are to be further optimized in order to create the basis for a meaningful overall view of publication costs and to obtain more planning security with regard to annual publication costs. Furthermore, the information and consulting services offered by the library regarding the selection of the publication medium and appropriate licensing models will be expanded. BIPS recognizes the opportunity to contribute to the establishment of more transparency with regard to the costs of open access at research institutions, especially in the national context. This explicitly refers not only to the direct costs paid to publishers, but also to the increased workload for library staff due to the administrative as well as increasingly required advisory activities.
