SUMMARY:Open Access Monitor in EU
DESCRIPTION:In the last decade or so, much has happened in the progres
 s of Open Access research and practice, however sadly much of it is th
 e result of scams.\nIn 2013, doctoral research  (completed in 2012) w
 as published in various digital repositories, including the British L
 ibrary making  a recommendation that various Open Access Monitoring 
 activities should be undertaken across the board.\nThe research, artic
 ulated as papers, briefings and presentations  provided  a number of
  conclusions and recommendations, including a proof of concept online
  monitoring tool,   \nThe outcomes widely disseminated t reseach co
 nferences including Oxford eResearch 2010 Open Access Week 2011  an
 d served as evidence to inform the UK Parliament  in 2013 \n(The im
 plementation of open access - Science and Technology Committee)\nSubse
 quently, as of 2014 or so, some private companies such as JISC Sympl
 etic,  Trident Consulting, Knowledge Exchange  used the arguments 
 and justification provided by the doctoral research  to obtain fundin
 g for Open Access Monitoring initiatives \nHowever their proposals an
  research outputs were copied from the thesis, and started offering Op
 en Access Monitoring software products and services, but without refer
 ence to the published doctoral research.\nThe EU funded RECODE project
  leverages the doctoral research,drawing recommendations, ideas, sugge
 stions, analysis and conclusions: Policy recommendations for Open Acc
 ess to research data in Europe ...\n\nThe author of the  thesis, who 
 is also an expert for REA (European Research Agency) asked in various 
 unanswered emails, to be involved in the EU funding proposals, their e
 valuation and  and related funded initiatives, as a participant or in
 vited expert, but received no reply.'\nThere is obviously a big scam g
 oing on, and gangs of criminals who pose as researchers are receiving 
 funding and recognition from public bodies, such as the EU.\nWhat a sh
 ame.\n \n\n\n\n\nFor more information visit http://legacy.openaccessw
