English abstract
Open Access (OA) is freely available to users on the Internet without any subscription charges and the authors and copyright holders grant to all users. OA is available online, digital, cost free and almost copyright and license free, so it may be called as barrier-free-access. The goal of open access is to improve the traditional scholarly publishing system and making research more accessible. Research data, peer-reviewed articles, dissertation/thesis, un-refereed preprints, conference, presentations, scholarly monographs textbooks novels, stories, digitized print works could be under open access publication. OA means neither to bypass peer review nor to violate copyright. Publication of a scholarly article through OA publication is broadly three types i.e. Gold OA, Green OA and Hybrid journals. Researchers, scholars and scientists main business is scholarly communication. The Research and Scholarly Environment Committee of the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) have designed the Scholarly Communication Toolkit. Scholarly communication is often defined or portrayed as a life cycle documenting the steps involved in the creation, publication, dissemination and search of a piece of creativity. Almost libraries, academics, research organizations and publishers have begun to support or adjust themselves for the new environment for scholarly communication, including open access, institutional repositories, and preprint.
