English abstract

Speaking openly. Complaints of an archivist [translation of the title]. Disciplinary Open Access repositories differ from institutional ones in at least two important respects: the contributions they cover are restricted to an academic field, but necessarily trans-local in scope. Some difficulties that have recently been impeding the Open Access Initiative carry particular weight as far as these repositories are concerned. Two issues in particular will be discussed by referring to examples taken from a small philosophical repository Sammelpunkt. Firstly academic papers can (quite often in different versions and under various terms of use) increasingly be found in open as well as closed archives. Secondly, disciplinary repositories are overshadowed by the ubiquity of academic social web portals. One factor supporting these developments is the conceptual inadequacy of the catchphrase „Open Access“, which cannot prevent applications unintended by the initial inventors of this phrase.

German abstract

Open Access Archive für Fachdisziplinen unterscheiden sich von organisationseigenen Repositorien durch ihre geringere institutionelle Verankerung und konstitutive Translokalität. Aus ihrer Sicht fallen manche Schwierigkeiten der Open Access-Initiative besonders ins Gewicht. Am Beispiel eines kleinen disziplinären Repositoriums Sammelpunkt (für Philosophie) werden zwei Punkte hervorgehoben. Erstens finden sich Journalbeiträge (bisweilen in unterschiedlichen Versionen) immer häufiger in mehreren, offenen oder gebührenpflichtigen, Archiven. Und zweitens können spezialisierte Sammlungen der Anziehungskraft dominanter Portale im akademischen sozialen Netz nichts entgegensetzen. Die Gründe dieser Entwicklung sind zu analysieren. Eine konzeptuelle Unzulänglichkeit liegt darin, dass die publikumswirksame Rede vom offenen Zugang zur Forschungsliteratur bei näherem Hinsehen zu undifferenziert ist, um unbeabsichtigte Praktiken auszuschließen.
