论文摘要
在过去的二十五年中，科学期刊发行商迅速转化为主要电子传播，但读者付费商业模式继续占据主导地位。在网上可以自由阅读的文章的开放访问（OA）出版已逐渐将其市场份额提高到近20％，但未能实现许多早期支持者预测的快速扩散的愿景。在科学领域，OA的增长也非常不平衡。我们报告了十八个Scopus指数学科的开放访问市场份额，范围从27％（农业）到7％（企业）。对于在四个国家发表的期刊（在商业学术出版（美国，英国，德国和荷兰）中，这些差异变得更加明显。我们提出了六个学科的对比发展。提供资金以支付出版费用，研究资助机构的压力以及特定于学科的研究交流文化的多样性作为对观察到的差异的潜在解释。
Scientific journal publishers have over the past twenty-five years rapidly converted to predominantly electronic dissemination, but the reader-pays business model continues to dominate the market. Open Access (OA) publishing, where the articles are freely readable on the net, has slowly increased its market share to near 20%, but has failed to fulfill the visions of rapid proliferation predicted by many early proponents. The growth of OA has also been very uneven across fields of science. We report market shares of open access in eighteen Scopus-indexed disciplines ranging from 27% (agriculture) to 7% (business). The differences become far more pronounced for journals published in the four countries, which dominate commercial scholarly publishing (US, UK, Germany and the Netherlands). We present contrasting developments within six academic disciplines. Availability of funding to pay publication charges, pressure from research funding agencies, and the diversity of discipline-specific research communication cultures arise as potential explanations for the observed differences.
