Diamond Open Access at Masaryk University

Martina Dvořáková (MU)

Masaryk University was the first Czech university to sign the Berlin Declaration on Open Access in 2010 and has remained an active promoter of Open Access to scientific and scholarly output. It currently operates the Munispace online reading room, where readers can read and download more than 1,000 scientific publications published at MU, as well as an editorial system for the management of open access journals, of which there are almost 50 at MU. This year, MU experts joined the European CRAFT-OA project. The project aims to support the publication of Diamond Open Access journals.

Martina Dvořáková works as a professional editor at the Masaryk University Press. Together with her colleagues she actively participates in the CRAFT-OA project.

All That Glitters Is Not Gold – Alternative Forms of Open Access

Demmy Verbeke (KUL)

It is a common mistake to assume that publishing in Open Access (OA) implies hefty costs for the author(s). The reason is that academics equal open publishing with the so-called Gold OA business model and associate it with costs calculated on the level of individual publications which are subsequently charged to authors by means of an APC or BPC. However, there are other ways to achieve OA which are not based on author-facing costs. A first alternative is open archiving, also known as Green OA, which lately receives renewed attention in the context of discussions concerning rights retention for academics. Another alternative are OA books and journals for which publishers do not charge individual publication fees, but which are financed through collective funding. A third alternative is provided by innovative forms of dissemination which challenge legacy processes of traditional scholarly publishing, such as the publish-review-curate approach or non-profit publication platforms. This presentation discusses the various forms of OA without author-facing costs and will particularly highlight innovative, non-profit and community-driven forms of open publishing by detailing a number of concrete examples.

Demmy Verbeke is Associate Professor of Open Scholarship at KU Leuven and Head of KU Leuven Libraries Artes. He is responsible for library collections and services for the Arts and Humanities and contributes to the strategic development and operational management of KU Leuven Libraries as a whole as a member of the management team with primary responsibilities for open research and collections. Demmy teaches information science in the humanities; his research focuses on non-profit and community-driven forms of scholarly communication in the humanities and the origins of open research.

Open Science Communities: What They Are and Why We Need Them?

Anita Eerland (RU) – online

Anita Erland from Radboud University in Nijmegen was behind the birth of the Utrecht Open Science Community, which became a space for the interaction of newcomers and experienced colleagues who inspire each other to use open science practices in their research practice. During the talk she will introduce the concept of communities and show how open science communities can facilitate the transition to open science.

From small ideas to big stories – Open Science in practice 

Jarmila Stanková (UP), Hynek Roubík (ČZU), Karel Berka (UP)

The path to open and accountable science and research is not straightforward and easy and cannot be imposed from above – the authentic leaders of change are the scientists who bring open research practices into their daily practice and share their experiences within their scientific communities. Jarmila Stanková, a chemical biologist from the Institute of Molecular and Translational Medicine of the Faculty of Medicine of the Palacký University Olomouc, Karel Berka, a physical chemist from the Faculty of Science of the Palacký University Olomouc, and Hynek Roubík, an expert in ecological agricultural engineering from the Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences of the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, will share their experiences with open science. We will discuss the motivations, advantages and benefits of Open Science, as well as obstacles and dead ends.

Meet Citizen Science in Czechia

11:30–11:50

Citizen Science: A new form of collaboration between science and society 

Jiří Marek (MU) 

Jiří Marek works as Open Science Manager at the Masaryk University and will give a talk about Citizen Science, a new phenomenon of cooperation between science and society. This concept is familiar, but its systematic promotion in Czechia is just beginning. Citizen Science combines both elements of science popularisation, or the effort to bring science closer to citizens, as well as a new form of research methodology using the involvement of the lay public in scientific research. This introductory lecture will focus on Citizen Science’s potential for modern science and will open the space for subsequent practical demonstrations in the following three presentations.

Pocitovemapy.cz: Citizens‘ preferences in urban space 

Jiří Pánek (UP)

Jiří Pánek from the Faculty of Science of Palacký University Olomouc will present his rich experience with the project PocitoveMapy.cz, designed to collect data on citizens‘ preferences in urban space. The map application allows citizens to identify places where they are afraid, hot, or would like to build a new cycle path. The analysed and visualised data is then handed over to the city management for further processing, e.g. to be used as a basis for planning investment projects or designing transport concepts.

Dialects of Czech Yellowhammers: Benefits and pitfalls of Citizen Science 

Tereza Petrusková (UK) – online

Tereza Petrusková from the Faculty of Arts of Charles University was at the birth of a successful research, which led, with the help of volunteers,  to the mapping of the Czech Yellowhammers dialects. In addition to presenting the inspiring project, the author will focus on what is needed and what to avoid if you want the public to cooperate on a research project. Finally, you will learn how the data were used in the following studies.

Citizen Science projects at the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague: Results, experience, recommendations 

Jan Bartoška (ČZU) – online

Citizen Science projects are yet to be common in the Czech Republic and often encounter a lack of interest from the public or partners from practice or government. Since 2015, the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague has been running a project Senoseč (Haymaking) Online, representing our annual contribution to the public discussion on game animal protection during spring haymaking. It is still a controversial topic. Since 2017, this project has been joined by the Včelstva (Honeybee) Online project, making a significant scientific contribution and raising provocative new questions. The third project, which seems to be from a different “barrel“, is this year’s Klíšťapka – a mobile application for predicting the risk of ticks and borreliosis in forest stands in the country. What are the results, experiences and recommendations from many years of experience of “atypical grant” projects with close links to the public? Jan Bartoška from Faculty of Economics and Management of ČZU will try to answer these questions.
