DESCRIPTION:To promote a change in the current publishing model the Direct
 or-General organised the open meeting\, particularly aimed at CERN authors
  and editors\, on the 16th September to discuss the requirements for makin
 g open access publishing an attractive publishing model for the particle p
 hysics community.\nThe meeting was attended by more than a hundred physici
 sts and the following debate showed that the author community is ready to 
 explore new publishing patterns even if there are many issues to be taken 
 into account in order to achieve a successful change.\n\nPrior to this eve
 n\, in June 2005\, representatives from the LHC Collaborations\, CERN's Sc
 ientific Information Policy Board and the CERN Library met to discuss vari
 ous possible scenarios for publishing LHC physics results obtained from th
 e experiments planned to start in 2007.\n\nAll parties agreed that particl
 e physics results from the last 10 years are basically 100% freely availab
 le through arXiv.org\, CERN Document Server and SLAC SPIRES. However\, thi
 s availability has not significantly changed the publishing pattern of the
  community and the criteria for academic advancements and yet this publish
 ing system is currently under pressure to change from the open access move
 ment. Given that open access is practically already achieved in particle p
 hysics through the freely available electronic archives of pre- and post-p
 rints\, the distribution and peer-review of papers for this field could in
  future remain within the current publishing model.\n\nHowever\, as the pr
 ices of subscription journals are continually increasing by a factor many 
 times that of the average inflation and as new technologies have created a
 lternative possibilities for distribution of scientific results\, it is cl
 ear to the group that it is a desirable goal to modify the present publish
 ing model towards open access and low cost journals. The open access movem
 ent gives added impetus to a change that is also desirable for other reaso
 ns.\nProf. Daniele Amati\, the founder of the Journal of High Energy Physi
 cs (JHEP) and an open access publishing pioneer\, was invited to present t
 he history of JHEP and its vision for open access publishing. The LHC coll
 aborations feel positive about exploring new publishing models provided th
 at features such as peer-review and long-term archiving are preserved. It 
 is also of high importance that the funding agencies start to consider pub
 lication costs as being part of research budgets.\nIn addition\, it was st
 ressed that open access publishing requires a range of actors\, as has bee
 n the case under the current paradigm\, in order to regulate the market an
 d maintain a healthy competition among the publishers. To promote a change
  in the current publishing model CERN proposes a meeting of all parties in
 volved in the current publication chain but who are also interested in ope
 n access publishing. By gathering those publishers that are favourable to 
 OA\, funding agencies and research institutions together to discuss the fu
 ture of scientific communication in physics\, CERN strongly believes that 
 a change\, albeit with all the problems such a change will imply\, can be 
 achieved through a transition plan expressing a common understanding of al
 l the parties involved. The first meeting for planning this transition is 
 proposed for the 7/8 December at CERN. The meeting will hopefully result i
 n the establishment of a task-force\, and possibly in the agreement of som
 e concrete decisions for a way forward. Its timing is intended to allow th
 e presentation of a report at the high profile Berlin 4 conference\, which
  is pioneering the Open Access movement\, and is expected to take place in
  Germany in the spring of 2006.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay

SUMMARY:Establishing a sponsoring consortium for Open Access publishing in
  particle physics

DESCRIPTION:Executive Summary\n\nIn December 2005 a Task Force on Open Acc
 ess Publishing in Particle Physics was set up\, and it produced its report
  in June 2006. Its main conclusion was that a sponsorship model was the mo
 st appropriate for the transition period to full Open Access.\n\nThe prese
 nt meeting was called to discuss the formation of a consortium (SCOAP3) th
 at could coordinate this sponsorship. Representatives from major European 
 particle physics funding agencies\, library consortia and the research com
 munity attended.\n\nIn the past year\, many more physics publishers have i
 ntroduced Open Access options of one kind or another. It is fairly clear t
 hat these moves have been a direct consequence of the discussion on Open A
 ccess in the particle physics research community.\n\nThe maintenance of a 
 peer-review system for quality assurance\, currently carried out by the pu
 blishers\, was felt to be an essential element to preserve in the transiti
 on to Open Access.\n\nA move to full Open Access\, rather than the hybrid 
 variety currently proposed by several publishers\, was also felt to be des
 irable\, in order to avoid multiple payments for the same service.\n\n Det
 ailed statistics on the publication of particle physics articles written i
 n year 2005 were presented. Breakdowns both by journal and by country of a
 uthor affiliation led to preliminary estimates of what could constitute a 
 "fair share" model for financial contributions.\n\nIt was felt that a succ
 essful move to full Open Access publishing in particle physics could lead 
 the way to a similar move in other research areas.\nThe following decision
 s were taken unanimously by the meeting:\n\n1) That all participants would
  discuss in their own countries/organisations the setting up of such a con
 sortium\;\n2) An interim working party was established\, composed from tho
 se present\;\n3) This interim working party agreed to produce a progress r
 eport by 15th January 2007\;\n4) By the end of February 2007\, decisions t
 o join SCOAP3 should be taken.\n\nThese dates were fixed by working back f
 rom a proposed start of full Open Access particle physics publishing by Ja
 nuary 2008. A six-month period was stated to be needed before this for the
  tendering process with publishers. This rather stringent timescale was ad
 opted in order to be ready for the start-up of the LHC at CERN.\n\nhttp://

DESCRIPTION:\n	\nFirst Year Event\nThe ODIN project organizes its 1st yea
 r event at CERN. It will start with an almost two-day-long codesprint. 
 The results from it will be presented at the ODIN 1st year “Big Bang” 
 public conference on the following day (17th October). On this occasion OD
 IN will share and discuss its results with innovators in the field of info
 rmation science and scholarly communication. Keynotes will set the scene f
 or in-depth discussions of the latest ODIN research. Different stakeholede
 r groups will present their views.  \nWe are looking forward to welcoming
  you at CERN. The ODIN Project\nODIN (ORCID and DataCite Interoperabil
 ity Network) is a two-year project which started in September 2012\, fund
 ed by the European Commission’s ‘Coordination and Support Action’ un
 der the FP7 programme. ODIN makes the next step towards increasing the
  interoperability of persistent author and object identifiers\; this is b
 eing done with an interdisciplinary consortium that undertakes studies w
 ith a focus on disciplines specific aspects. The project will inform the
  work of the European commission by developing a gap analysis and roadmap.
  \n \nThe project partners are Australian National Data Services (ANDS)\
 , the British Library\, CERN\, the Cornell University Library (arXiv)\, th
 e International Data Citing Initiative (DataCite)\, Duke University (Dryad
  Digital Repository)\, and the Open Researcher and Contributor ID Initiati
 ve (ORCID). Why is this of interest?\nResearch data and other scholarly o
 utputs are shared to facilitate future reuse and reinterpretation. It is
  now expected to track the sharing and the reuse of such materials\, in pa
 rticular research data. This is not yet possible - on disciplinary layers
  and also on an interdisciplinary\, global scale. The different stakehol
 der groups involved in scholarly communication need to understand what hi
 nders an interoperable framework of persistent identification that allows 
 such tracking. ODIN studies what kind of barriers the individual group
 s encounter and how these could be resolved to enable an interoperable lay
 er of persistent identification on a European and global scale. Special
  emphasis is given to DataCite and ORCID and their interoperability with 
 other PI systems. \nThe results of the first year of ODIN research will
  form a main part on the first year event. It will be a forum to discus
 s the latest developments with leading experts in the field. The codesp
 rint beforehand allows a "hands-on experience" with interoperable persis
 tent identifiers based on the ODIN work. For more information: http://o
