Neil will focus on the lessons from the Jisc-APC pilot, and how the workflows around all forms of OA are changing the roles and responsibilities of information professionals within and beyond the HEI. There are new drivers (eg the HEFCE REF OA policy), new points of contact / transaction (eg Gold OA payments of various kinds), and new opportunities (eg to populate repositories). The talk will explore the workflows that are emerging as effective in addressing these changes, and their implications for all concerned.

6. Situation Assessment: Global Gold OA market
The APC OA market is evolving rapidly and growing at about 30% a
year. The overall APC revenue was estimated to be approximately 182
million USD in 2012 and growing at about 34% a year, though the rate of
growth is expected to tail off to about 20% over the next 5 years.

18. General support from Jisc
• Negotiations with publishers on Gold and hybrid – “total cost of
ownership”
• “Open Access Implementation Community” – pathfinder
projects and community
• Repository shared services for deposit, discovery, usage data…
• Repository technical support for most platforms
• Jisc-Monitor, potential for a Jisc shared service to help HEIs in
watching their publication output, expenditure, compliance?
• Developing technical standards and protocols
• Plus: ongoing discussions in UK and across Europe on
coordinating policies, their expression and implementation, eg:
– Funder and publisher policy expression
– PASTEUR4OA project – policy alignment
– Closer working with OpenAIRE
