Society Journals
Publishing consultants working with societies are increasingly being asked about open access
BioMed Central is approached about– new OA society journals– transfer of existing society journals to the OA model
Increasing society publishing consultants’ awareness and knowledge of open access – 1–day workshop in London UK – June 2009– 1–day workshop in New York – December 2009

Several new Open Access journals from NPG
From Nature Publishing Group’s 2009 letter to customers:
The increase in funder support for open access and enhancements in publishing technology enable NPG to undertake an exciting new publishing endeavour. In April 2010 we will introduce Nature Communications, an online-only peer-reviewed journal offering rapid publication for high-quality research across the biological, chemical and physical sciences. We plan to introduce several open access journals in our academic and society journal program in 2010, the first of which will be Cell Death & Disease in January.

“The BMJ has been an active supporter of open access from the outset. […] We are delighted to be joining OASPA.”
Fiona Godlee, Editor, British Medical Journal
![Page 22: Latest Developments in Open Access](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062405/554e90c4b4c90526358b4dee/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
“Oxford Journals is commited to fair and sustainable pricing models and we see open access as one means of achieving this. We support OASPA’s desire to share experiences and best practice for open access publishing, so we’re pleased to be able to join its community.”Martin Richardson, Managing Director, OUP (Journals Division)
![Page 23: Latest Developments in Open Access](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062405/554e90c4b4c90526358b4dee/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Transitioning funding from subscriptions to OA
![Page 24: Latest Developments in Open Access](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062405/554e90c4b4c90526358b4dee/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
“We would like to see a commitment from publishers to show the uptake of their open access option and to adjust their subscription rates to reflect increases in income from open access fees. Some publishers, for example Oxford University Press, have already done this and we would like to see all publishers behave the same way.”
Sir Mark Walport, Director of the Wellcome Trust
![Page 25: Latest Developments in Open Access](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062405/554e90c4b4c90526358b4dee/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Reduced subscription fees on hybrid journals to reflect OA uptake
![Page 26: Latest Developments in Open Access](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062405/554e90c4b4c90526358b4dee/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Similarly for OUP’s Bioinformatics
Institutional online subscription price: 2005 - GBP 1008 2010 - GBP 976
OA uptake has more than offset OUP’s subscription price increments over this time period

A substantial fraction of academic institutions now have OA repositories
Filling those OA repositories is proving to be a challenge
Open Access journals provide a source of content that can be immediately shared
BioMed Central is automating feeds to repositories using the SWORD protocol
OA journals are complementary to Institutional OA repositories
