Jamk’s Publication Services support OA publishing by self-archiving scientific publications in Theseus.
The so-called Green Open Access model is followed in self-archiving: the article is published both on a conventional fee-paying publication channel and in an electronic repository open to everyone. Most publishers allow the self-archiving of a specific version of the article after an embargo period, meaning a publication delay.
Scientific publications produced at Jamk (publication data collection categories A-B) are reguired to be self-archived in Theseus whenever the publisher permits this. OA publications are also saved to Theseus (long-term preservation). On request, older articles may also be self-archived.
1) Publish the article in your publication of choice. When concluding a publication agreement with a publisher, try to retain self-archiving rights to your article and keep the version of the publication that the publisher permits you to self-archive (rarely the final pdf with the publisher’s layout!)
At Jamk, self-archiving takes place in connection with reporting the publication information.
2) Attach the file to be self-archived (usually a final draft/accepted manuscript) to your publication report in Justus. You can also send the file as an e-mail attachment to the Publication Services / Hanna Räisänen firstname.surname(a)jamk.fi. Jamk’s Publication Services check the publisher’s terms of permission (e.g. embargo period) and add a cover page containing the publication’s reference data to the file. The publication is then self-archived to Theseus, where it is openly accessible.
Different versions of a publication in chronological order from the manuscript stage to a finished work published by the publisher. The publisher defines which version it allows to self-archive. Remember to save that version (usually the so-called final draft). The list has also alternative terms that publishers use for the same version.
The obligation of self-archiving is based on a decision of the Rectors' Conference of Finnish Universities of Applied Sciences Arene (Arene's Open Access statement of 2009) and a decision of Jamk’s Rector on complying with the principles of open access science and research.
Universities of applied sciences have a mission to promote open access to research and development results. Open online access for everyone should be provided to the results of publicly funded RDI. The Ministry of Education and Culture encourages open access through its funding model, in which OA publications in publication classes A to E are given a weighting of 1.2.
