TYPES OF OPEN ACCESS

GREEN, GOLD OPEN ACCESS

The two major models of publishing in Open Access are: Green Open Access and Gold Open Access.

  • Green Open Access – authors self-archive pre-prints (i.e. the original versions of the articles before the peer review process) or post-prints (i.e. the final versions of the articles after the peer review process) in Open Access repositories. 
    Before submitting the publications, the author must check the publisher's policy, e.g. on the SHERPA/RoMEO database or on the publisher's website.

 

 

  • Gold Open Access – authors publish their articles in the peer-reviewed Open Access journals that provide access to all publications on their websites without any barriers, e.g. technological (with no necessity of logging in), financial (free of charge) or legal (under the one of the Open Access licenses).
    Publishing in Open Access journals is often associated with the author fee, the so-called APC (Article Processing Charges).
    Some publishers of the traditional journals only with subscribed access use a hybrid model, i.e. they allow authors - for an APC fee - to publish their articles in the Gold Open Access model.

 

GRATIS, LIBRE OPEN ACCESS

There are two models of reusing of the works that were published in Open Access: Gratis Open Access and Libre Open Access.

  • Gratis Open Access / fair use
    This model removes price barriers. Everyone may read or use such work to the extent of permitted personal use.
     
  • Libre Open Access / licencje Creative Commons
    This model removes both price and permission barriers. Everyone may re-use such a work but only under the Creative Commons licenses.
