Subject: Re: Conflating OA Repository-Content, Deposit-Locus,
and Central-Service Issues
Currently 25% of the Dutch national research output published
in 2008 is available in Open Access.

Attached I have given the search history so that anyone can
easily do their own country. One should be aware that some
countries are not (completely) represented in DRIVER. Currently
DRIVER harvests over 200 repositories from 23 countries.
For the moment we have no mandates. The Netherlands Research
Organisation NWO has announced one. Six or seven universities
have a mandate for doctoral theses.

http://bit.ly/79wNFG But unless
there is something
different about the air breathed in the
Netherlands, all indications
are that their institutional repositories, like
repositories
everywhere, are only capturing about 15% of their
target output. That
is the approximate deposit rate for spontaneous
(unmandated)
self-archiving, worldwide. Only deposit mandates
can raise that
deposit rate appreciably -- and so far the
Netherlands has no OA
mandates:
