Abstract:

［Purposes］ This study provides guidance and reference for developing open access publishing and transformation strategies for libraries in China, especially for research-intensive universities. ［Methods］ We started with articles published from 2012 to 2022 that were indexed by Web of Science and the transformation practices announced on publishers' websites. We then conducted a survey of the open access transformative policies of major academic journal publishers worldwide through online questionnaires and telephone interviews. In addition, we reviewed open access transformation practices in Asia using the ESAC registry. ［Findings］ Over 80% of major academic journal publishers have mature policies for open access transformation and substantial practical experience in developed countries, such as those in Europe and the United States. However, the open access policies in China are relatively unclear. Open access practices in Asia are primarily concentrated in Japan and Taiwan, China, with fewer initiatives in other countries and regions. ［Conclusions］ At this stage, the feasibility of open access transformation in Chinese university libraries, including the availability of transformative conditions and the readiness of the model, requires further exploration and practice. The Digital Resource Acquisition Alliance plays a crucial role in providing international databases to Chinese university libraries. In the future, it should fully leverage its role in advancing open access publishing and transformation efforts in China. University libraries should promptly adjust their roles and service functions. They should also collaborate with publishers, researchers, and research management departments to explore a sustainable open access publishing model better suited to China's national conditions.

摘要：

【目的】为我国图书馆尤其是科研密集型高校图书馆制定开放获取出版及转换策略提供借鉴和参考。【方法】从2012—2022年Web of Science收录文章和出版社网站公布的转换实践入手，通过在线问卷、电话访谈等方式开展全球重要学术期刊出版社开放获取转换政策调查，结合ESAC平台登记情况梳理亚洲地区已开展的开放获取转换实践。【结果】80%以上全球重要学术期刊出版社在欧美等发达国家已有较为成熟的开放获取转换政策和较为丰富的实践经验，然而目前我国转换政策相对不够明朗。亚洲地区的转换实践主要集中在日本和中国台湾，其他国家/地区的实践相对较少。【结论】现阶段，我国高校图书馆是否具备开放获取转换条件、转换模式是否可行、转换时机是否成熟等问题有待进一步探索。高校图书馆数字资源采购联盟在我国高校图书馆引进国外数据库活动中起着不可替代的作用，未来应当充分发挥在我国开放获取出版及转换中的重要作用。高校图书馆应当尽快调整业务和服务功能布局，与多方合作，共同探索更加适合我国国情的开放获取出版模式。
