- Date: Tue, 23 Feb 2010 18:21:22 +0900

    皆様
    香港大では、Springerとのパイロット・プロジェクトで、所属の研究者が
    Springerの雑誌に掲載した論文はすべてOpen Choice扱いにするよう
    ですね。
    お金はどうなっているのか、つまりSpringerのサービスで無料なのか、
    それとも香港大がまとめていくらか支払うのか、下記のプレス・リリース
    では明らかにされていないようですが。。。

    > The University of Hong Kong Libraries and Springer have reached an agreement
    > which allows researchers at the affiliated institutions of The University of
    > Hong Kong (HKU) to publish their research in Springer journals using
    > Springer Open ChoiceTM.  Springer's Open Choice program offers full and
    > immediate open access (free to the reader) for articles that are accepted
    > for publication after a process of rigorous peer-review.  Accepted HKU
    > articles will appear as usual in Springer print journals, and will be
    > published electronically using open access on SpringerLink, PubMed Central,
    > and the HKU institutional repository, The HKU Scholars Hub.   The pilot
    > project will run from March 2010 to March 2011.

    > Professor Paul Tam, Pro Vice Chancellor for Research, and Director of the
    > Knowledge Exchange Office at HKU, said:  "The amount of cutting-edge
    > research done at The University of Hong Kong has increased dramatically.  It
    > is important to also increase access to this research, and thereby secure
    > all the benefits that this research can bring to the public who funded it.
    > The Springer Open Choice is a good first step in that direction!"

    > Professor Jan van Aalst,  Springer author at the Faculty of Education of The
    > University of Hong Kong added, "I usually choose a journal in which to
    > publish by the community it serves.  However all other things being equal, I
    > prefer to publish in an open access journal.  In this case, using Springer's
    > Open Choice, I found that my article was discovered much more quickly."

    > "Making HKU's research available to all interested parties in open access
    > format is a key goal of our Knowledge Exchange Initiative, which holds that
    > publicly-funded universities should return the results of their research to
    > the communities that funded them." added Professor Tam.

    > "Several researchers at HKU have already used Springer's Open Choice service
    > on their own.   We are, however, very pleased that we gained such a key
    > academic institution to carry out this pilot project.  We value very highly
    > the opportunity to further develop exciting new publishing models in close
    > cooperation with yet another respected institution," said Peter Hendriks,
    > President STM Global Publishing & Marketing at Springer.
