| abstract: | The PLEIADI Project (acronym for “Portale per la Letteratura scientifica Elettronica Italiana su Archivi aperti e Depositi Istituzionali”, a portal for Italian scholarly e-literature in open archives and institutional repositories) was born within the framework of a collaboration between two major Italian university consortia, CASPUR and CILEA, as part of a project called AEPIC (http://www.aepic.it). PLEIADI’s goal is to promote national awareness in the Open Access scenario and provide centralized access for scholarly literature archived in Italian institutional repositories (or “data providers” in the OAI - Open Archives Initiative architecture). PLEIADI also aims at providing end users (mainly the academic and research community) with a personalized environment, user profiling, an area to save searches and articles, e-mail alerts. The portal enhances users’ awareness on Open Access issues through several information services (news, RSS, forum), and promotes self-archiving of scholarly articles in institutional repositories. The service, available at the URL http://www.openarchives.it/pleiadi/, was launched in November 2004, during a national event held in Messina, which marked the “official starting point” for the Open Access movement in the Italian academic community. |
| othersabs_othabstracts: | Il progetto PLEIADI (Portale per la Letteratura scientifica Elettronica Italiana su Archivi aperti e Depositi Istituzionali) nasce dalla collaborazione di due fra i più grossi consorzi universitari italiani, CILEA e CASPUR, all'interno del contesto del progetto AEPIC (http://www.aepic.it). Lo scopo di PLEIADI è di promuovere la consapevolezza del movimento Open Access all'interno dello scenario italiano e di fornire un accesso centralizzato alla letteratura scientifica depositata in archivi istituzionali italiani (ovvero nei Data Providers secondo la terminologia OAI - Open Access Initiative). Il portale mette a disposizione dell'utente un ambiente personalizzato e configurabile con servizi di ricerca "user centered" (ricerche salvate o eseguite, article alerts, area "my articles"). Sono inoltre disponibili servizi di News, RSS e Forum, al fine di promuovere le finalità dell'open access e la pratica dell'auto archiviazione degli articoli scientifici all'interno della comunità degli utenti del portale. PLEIADI, raggiungibile alla URL http://www.openarchives.it/pleiadi/, è stato ufficialmente lanciato nel Novembre 2004, durante la conferenza dell'Open Access all'università di Messina, occasione nella quale ha avuto inizio il movimento Open Access italiano. |
