A contract study on the qualitative perception of Open Access was completed at the end of last year. The study was carried out as part of the third-party funded project visOA: Making Open Access publications visible in the holdings of a library, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and conducted by the Leibniz Institute for New Materials (INM).
The work packages for ./scidecode included a literature study, qualitative interviews with scientists on the perception of the quality of scientific publications and online surveys.
In spring 2020, an article on the project is due to be published. It will also be available Open Access:
Ulrich Herb & Uwe Geith (2020). Kriterien der qualitativen Bewertung wissenschaftlicher Publikationen. Information. Wissenschaft & Praxis, 71(2–3), 1–9. Accepted, not yet published.
DOI:10.1515/iwp-2020-2074
Further data on the empirical study are also available. These items focus on the study on the qualitative perception of Open Access.
