I am a researcher and editor
> 33 years as an editor
Experiments with Open Access 1987 (Nordisk Bibliografi for Folkelivsforskning og Nord Nytt)
Established the first Danish peer reviewed journal Open Access in 2001 (Tidsskrift for Arbejdsliv)

Author-financed Open Access (golden)
Is not a solution in humanities and social sciences
Example:
Historisk Tidsskrift has 25 % authors without a research institution behind them.(unemployed, retired, teachers at high schools, priests)
And has many other drawbacks

Mandate research council FKK 2008
35 % closed or with severe problems
Reason: the research council was more interested in ideology than in publishing

Enforce the researchers to archive
Researchers know that manuscripts are second class
Archiving is against their will and will only happen after a mandate

Green Open Access is
•Slow to read
•Slow to use
•Missing information
•Wrong information
•You need to use the original article
•Bureaucratic and unproductive system
•The functioning publishing system will be destroyed
![Page 26: Can an Open Access mandate avoid destroying a well functioning publication system?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070414/56814ddf550346895dbb4860/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Mandating a OA green is a strategy to get OA gold
If universities mandate green open access, making all papers accessible, libraries will begin to cancel journal subscriptions "catastrophically“
Stevan Harnad, Times Higher Education 12 November 2009
And yes, some publishers will decide to leave the business, but that is perfectly fine.
Stevan Harnad, Information Today February 2010
![Page 27: Can an Open Access mandate avoid destroying a well functioning publication system?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070414/56814ddf550346895dbb4860/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
OA green mission: Destruction
And from destruction came Phoenix: golden OA
![Page 28: Can an Open Access mandate avoid destroying a well functioning publication system?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070414/56814ddf550346895dbb4860/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
What is the most dangerous idea in the world?
It is the ideas about green OA that will reduce the quality and efficiency of the dissemination of research results.
A reduction by only a few percent will be a threat to the world economy, and by that to peace and freedom.
![Page 29: Can an Open Access mandate avoid destroying a well functioning publication system?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070414/56814ddf550346895dbb4860/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
That explain why DEFF/Danish Agency for Libraries and Media
•Made OA lobby in secret
•Kept the editors away from influences (330 mio. kr.)
•Never have had open meetings about OA
•Closed the doors for researchers, even at announced open OA meetings
•Won’t allow researchers to join the OA network
•Never have invited the Danish OA pioneers to share their experiences
•Didn’t involve researchers, editors or publishers in the writing of the recommendation
![Page 30: Can an Open Access mandate avoid destroying a well functioning publication system?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070414/56814ddf550346895dbb4860/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
This strategy will strengthen even the strongest
•The smallest and weakest publishers will go out of business
•The weak publishers will become more weak
•The strongest companies will miss competition and by this become stronger

Can an Open Access mandate avoid destroying a well functioning publication system?
NOOpen Access green is not a solution in and of itself
but a strategic means to destroy the current publishing
system
