Item Open Access Finding the Balance: Creating an open, sustainable future for OU(2021) Bemben, Michael G.; Fithian, Lee; Folsom, Raphael; Masly, J.P.; Miller, Claude; Pandora, Katherine; Purcell, Darren; Schroeder, Caroline T.; Rupp-Serrano, Karen; Waller, JenToday’s scholars have more publishing options available to them than ever before. In addition to traditional publishing venues, open publishing has become a viable and practicable option for communicating research to ever broadening audiences. This breadth of publishing options focuses new attention on the way business models, accessibility, copyright and intellectual property, and research dissemination are envisioned. Moreover, these considerations have important and pressing implications for OU faculty members and graduate students who are authors, readers, reviewers, editors, society associates, and advisory board members dependent upon effective scholarly communication for professional development and advancement. Scholars are on the cusp of a transformative shift toward a more sustainable system of scholarly communication. In 2019 the University Libraries Committee convened a Scholarly Communication Taskforce to examine these issues. The Taskforce met during the 2019-2020 and will continue their work through the spring of 2022. The Taskforce has met monthly to discuss selected readings and how these scholarly communication topics will effect their colleagues and students in their colleges and departments.The Taskforce's work culminated in this report "Finding the Balance: Creating an Open Sustainable Future for OU," to be presented to the OU community.

As stated in the SHAREOK Preservation Support Policy, OU Libraries is committed to preserving the binary form of the digital object of content deposited in SHAREOK. As resources permit, OU Libraries will also take further measures to preserve as much functionality ("look and feel") of the original content as possible. The Recommended File Formats table outlines the file formats that have a high, medium, and low probability of full preservation. The files in the left-hand column have a high probability of full preservation. Those in the right-hand column have a low probability of being fully preserved over time. Those formats in the middle are preferred over their counterparts in the right-hand column, but assurance of their long-term preservation is not as high as the left-hand column. We recommend that those depositing content in SHAREOK use formats in the left-hand column of the table if at all possible and consider methods for converting files with low probability to formats with higher probability.
