Abstract

Green Open Access solutions require specific platforms and tools to reach their full potential and keep their promises. In order to encourage scientists from the Ecole Polytechnique de Lausanne (EPFL) to self-archive their publications, Infoscience (EPFL's institutional archive) develops innovative strategies and experiences to make this task as easy and useful as possible. Thanks to this approach, Infoscience becomes more than an easy-to-use and well-referenced dropbox, and provides added-value services as well. We motivate scientists toward Green Open Access with functionalities that not only make their fulltext-sharing experience simpler and their work more visible, but also provide them with valuable information about their own communication practices and scientific impact.

Open access

Open access (OA) is a set of principles and a range of practices through which research outputs are distributed online, free of access charges or other barriers. Under some models of open access publishing, barriers to copying or reuse are also reduced or removed by applying an open license for copyright. The main focus of the open access movement is "peer reviewed research literature". Historically, this has centered mainly on print-based academic journals.

Archive

An archive is an accumulation of historical records or materials – in any medium – or the physical facility in which they are located. Archives contain primary source documents that have accumulated over the course of an individual or organization's lifetime, and are kept to show the function of that person or organization. Professional archivists and historians generally understand archives to be records that have been naturally and necessarily generated as a product of regular legal, commercial, administrative, or social activities.

Scientific literature

Scientific literature comprises academic papers that report original empirical and theoretical work in the natural and social sciences. Within a field of research, relevant papers are often referred to as "the literature". Academic publishing is the process of contributing the results of one's research into the literature, which often requires a peer-review process. Original scientific research published for the first time in scientific journals is called the primary literature.
