English abstract

Open Access (OA) is free accessibility to documents without any subscription charges. OA is generally documents available online, free of cost and without copyright restrictions.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 etc are all available under open access. 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. 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. The paper gives a brief outline of these developments.
