(OA) awareness, attitudes, and sustainability issues in
particular for independently run (non-publisher) OA
journals.

Open Access is when research publications are made available
for free over the Internet. Open Access is changing the
world of scholarly publication, and it is in the interest of
researchers and publishers alike to investigate the views of
the researchers in planning for the models of
publication which include an Open
Access feature.
This survey is in part a
follow-up of the Agora OA Journal Survey 2013 which was carried out
within the EU-funded research project Agora: Scholarly Open Access
Research in European Philosophy 2011-13. Some questions are based on
”Determinants of Open Access” Scheufen&Eger 2013 and OAPEN-UK HSS
Researcher Survey 2012.
The survey is carried out
by Mikael Laakso, PhD, Hanken School of Economics,
Helsinki, Finland and Yrsa Neuman, PhD, Åbo Akademi University, Turku,
Finland.
The collected data is anonymous to ensure integrity
protection. If you are interested in
receiving an update on the survey results, please submit
your e-mail address at the end of the survey.
Should you have any questions, we are more than
happy to answer them.
Best wishes,
Yrsa Neuman yneuman (-a-) abo.fi
