Coalition Publica and Decentralized Access to Canadian Journals: A Preliminary Usage Study

Tuesday October 06, 2020
From 3:00pm to 4:00pm
Since 2017, Érudit and the Public Knowledge Project (PKP) have been working together as Coalition Publica, with the ambitious goal of developing a non-commercial, open source, national scholarly publishing infrastructure that links PKP’s Open Journal Systems (OJS) with the Érudit platform (erudit.org). A few years on, what can we say about the (mostly open access) journals that are using this infrastructure? Do they benefit from having their content on both OJS and Érudit, and if so, how?

Since 2017, Érudit and the Public Knowledge Project (PKP) have been working together as Coalition Publica, with the ambitious goal of developing a non-commercial, open source, national scholarly publishing infrastructure that links PKP’s Open Journal Systems (OJS) with the Érudit platform (erudit.org). A few years on, what can we say about the (mostly open access) journals that are using this infrastructure? Do they benefit from having their content on both OJS and Érudit, and if so, how? Coalition Publica will present some findings from a preliminary analysis of OJS and Érudit usage data for a journal participating in Coalition Publica, including access trends domestically and internationally from before and after the journal joined Coalition Publica. They will also outline their development plans for providing ongoing, aggregated usage data across their decentralized infrastructure, in the context of other similar data aggregation projects for scholarly publications (such as the CALJ Readership Analytics Project, or the Knowledge Unlatched Open Analytics platform) and as part of their ongoing effort to provide valuable tools and services to the Canadian scholarly community. Access to usage data in a decentralized publishing system is necessary to monitor impact, realign strategies (when needed), and ensure that developments and services continue to benefit the community. Reliable usage data in this context can be a powerful tool to develop cooperative partnerships, such as the Partnership for Open Access and library-based publishing or journal hosting, within the Canadian scholarly publishing community.
