Repertorios abiertos: el libre acceso a contenidos

Abstract

Las nuevas tecnologías de la información y la comunicación están modificando los mecanismos utilizados por distintas comunidades para comunicarse entre sí. Si tratamos de comunidades académicas o científicas hay que hablar, actualmente, de archivos abiertos o del movimiento Open Access. Partiendo del principio del acceso abierto al conocimiento, los científicos son conscientes de que los actuales sistemas de publicación y comunicación de sus trabajos son cada vez más elitistas y, por ello, excluyentes. En este marco encontramos, a principios de los años noventa, las primeras iniciativas para crear depósitos abiertos de documentos especializados con el fin de facilitar el acceso a contenidos, hasta el momento disponibles sólo para los que los pudiesen pagar. Desde entonces, los principios que rigen el movimiento han evolucionado. Actualmente son ya las propias instituciones académicas las que apoyan la creación de estos archivos de documentos con el fin de proteger los derechos sobre sus actividades, a la vez que facilitan la transferencia de conocimientos en la Red. Si bien se trata de sistemas que no responden a los métodos tradicionales de evaluación de resultados, como puede ser la revisión por pares, su uso es cada vez más habitual, hasta el extremo de que sus contenidos son a menudo más citados, y por tanto utilizados, que los que se pueden encontrar en las tradicionales revistas científicas. Lejos de sustituirlas, se perciben como complementos a los mecanismos de validación de la ciencia establecidos, ofreciendo entornos más ágiles, accesibles y no tan rígidos.

New information and communication technologies are modifying the mechanisms used by distinct communities to communicate among themselves. In academic or scientific communities, currently one must speak of open-access archives or the open access movement. Based on the principle of open access to knowledge, scientists are aware that the current systems of publishing and communicating their studies is more and more elitist and, consequently, exclusive. Within this framework, the first initiatives to create open archives for specialized documents appeared at the beginning of the 1990s. The aim was to facilitate access to these documents, which had hitherto been available only to those who could pay. Since then, the principles governing this movement have evolved. Currently, it is the academic institutions themselves that support the creation of these archives with the aim of protecting rights over their activities at the same time as they facilitate knowledge transfer through the web. Although these systems do not yield to traditional methods of evaluating results, such as peer review, their use is becoming increasingly frequent, to such a degree that their contents are often more commonly cited, and therefore used, than those of traditional scientific journals. Far from substituting these journals, they are perceived as complementary to established mechanisms of validating science, providing more agile, accessible and less rigid environments.
