Introduction

PSO, the Publishing Status Ontology, is an ontology written in OWL 2 DL for characterizing the publication status of a document or other publication entity at each of the various stages in the publishing process (e.g. draft, submitted, under review, rejected, accepted for publication, proof, published, Version of Record, catalogued, archived). Because it is based on the Time-indexed Value in Context ontology pattern (http://purl.org/spar/tvc), it is easy to extends the set of specified statuses, simply by adding new individual to the class pso:Status or its sub-class pso:PublicationStatus.

gold open accessni back to ToC or Named Individual ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/spar/pso/gold-open-access

The status of a published work, typically a journal article, made available by the publisher on the publisher's own web site for third parties to read without payment of access or subscription fees. Gold open access has the benefit that the article is findable where you expect it to be, but licensing restrictions may limit the possibilities for downloading, text mining, modification, re-publication or re-use of the published work. Gold open-access publication typically involves payment by the author or his/her institution to the publisher of an article processing charge (aka an author publishing charge). [See also: pso:open-access, pso:gratis-open-access, pso:libre-open-access, pso:green-open-access, pso:embargoed and pso:subscription-access.]
belongs to
publishing statusc

gratis open accessni back to ToC or Named Individual ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/spar/pso/gratis-open-access

The status of a published work which is free to read on-line, in contrast to subscription-access works, but to which licensing restrictions apply, limiting the possibilities for downloading, text mining, modification, re-publication or re-use of the published work. The term Gratis Open Access thus signifies absence of a price barrier to view. While both imply ‘free’ (a potentially ambiguous word), Gratis Open Access equates to ‘free as in beer’ while Libre Open Access (q.v.) equates to ‘free as in speech’. Gratis Open Access is thus a necessary but not a sufficient condition for true Libre Open Access. Many ‘open access’ publications by commercial scholarly publishers are only Gratis Open Access, while almost all publications by ‘pure’ Open Access scholarly publishers are Libre Open Access. [See also: pso:open-access, pso:libre-open-access, pso:gold-open-access, pso:green-open-access, pso:embargoed and pso:subscription-access.]

green open accessni back to ToC or Named Individual ToC

IRI: http://purl.org/spar/pso/green-open-access

The status of a published work made available by the author, by self-archiving a version of the work for free and open public use in their institutional repository, in a central repository, or elsewhere, in parallel with publication of a subscription-access Version of Record of the work by a publisher. The green open-access version of the work may be a preprint (the version of the article as first submitted for publication) or a postprint (the pre-publication version of the article after incorporation of authors’ responses to peer reviewers’ comments). Its availability may have an embargo restriction imposed by the publisher of the subscription-access version of the work, that prevents the green open-access version from being freely available until some substantial time after publication of the subscription-access journal issue containing that article. A green open-access work should be accompanied by a license explicitly defining usage rights, for example a Creative Commons Attribution License. [See also: pso:open-access, pso:gratis-open-access, pso:libre-open-access, pso:gold-open-access, pso:embargoed and pso:subscription-access.]

The status of a published work which is both free to read on-line, and to which additional usage rights apply, for example the right to text mine, make derivative works, re-use and re-publish the published work, such rights frequently being defined by application of an explicit license such as a Creative Commons license.
