We proceeded to an overview and discussion of the pertinent literature and the identification and analysis of open access journals which have addressed the issue, and to the identification and analysis of cases of open access journals which have been adopting innovative practices, based on information on editorial policies available on their websites. Among the results, we have pointed out aspects of the publications examined, such as the types of licenses used, policies regarding access to research data, publishing formats, charges and alternative metrics of evaluation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/isu-170862","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,9]],"date-time":"2018-01-09T12:02:03Z","timestamp":1515499323000},"page":"475-488","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Open scientific journals: Emerging practices and approaches"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"37","author":[{"given":"Andre Luiz","family":"Appel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Programa de P\u00f3s-Gradua\u00e7\u00e3o em Ci\u00eancia da Informa\u00e7\u00e3o, Instituto Brasileiro de Informa\u00e7\u00e3o em Ci\u00eancia e Tecnologia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rua Lauro M\u00fcller, 455, Rio de Janeiro, RJ 22290-160, BRA."}]},{"given":"Sarita","family":"Albagli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Coordena\u00e7\u00e3o de Ensino e Pesquisa, Instituto Brasileiro de Informa\u00e7\u00e3o em Ci\u00eancia e Tecnologia, Rua Lauro M\u00fcller, 455, Rio de Janeiro, RJ 22290-160, BRA."}]},{"given":"Maria Lucia","family":"Maciel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rua Lauro M\u00fcller, 455, Rio de Janeiro, RJ 22290-160, BRA."}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-ISU-170862","unstructured":"KuhlenR., Knowledge is the water of the mind: How to structure rights in the \u201cimmaterial commons\u201d, in: Wealth Commons a World Beyond Mark.
