开放不是永恒的：消失的开放获取期刊研究
Open is not forever: a study of vanished open access journals
摘要：
自知识生产开始以来，学术记录的保存一直是人们关注的一个问题。对于印刷出版物，责任主要在于图书馆员，但向数字出版的转变，特别是开放获取（OA）的引入，造成了模糊性和复杂性。因此，期刊的长期可访问性并不总是得到保证，它们甚至可能从网络上完全消失。本研究的重点是对期刊消失现象的探索性研究，这是以往没有人做过的。为了进行分析，我们查阅了几个主要的书目索引，如Scopus，Ulrichsweb和开放获取期刊目录，并通过互联网档案馆的Wayback Machine跟踪期刊。我们发现，由于缺乏全面和开放的档案，174种OA期刊在2000年至2019年间从网络上消失，涵盖了世界上所有主要的研究学科和地理区域。我们的研究结果引起了对学术记录完整性的严重关注，并强调了采取合作行动以确保持续获取和防止更多学术知识流失的紧迫性。我们鼓励那些对消失的期刊现象感兴趣的人使用公共数据集进行研究。
英文摘要：
The preservation of the scholarly record has been a point of concern since the beginning of knowledge production. With print publications, the responsibility rested primarily with librarians, but the shift toward digital publishing and, in particular, the introduction of open access (OA) have caused ambiguity and complexity. Consequently, the long-term accessibility of journals is not always guaranteed, and they can even disappear from the web completely. The focus of this exploratory study is on the phenomenon of vanished journals, something that has not been carried out before. For the analysis, we consulted several major bibliographic indexes, such as Scopus, Ulrichsweb, and the Directory of Open Access Journals, and traced the journals through the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. We found 174 OA journals that, through lack of comprehensive and open archives, vanished from the web between 2000 and 2019, spanning all major research disciplines and geographic regions of the world. Our results raise vital concern for the integrity of the scholarly record and highlight the urgency to take collaborative action to ensure continued access and prevent the loss of more scholarly knowledge. We encourage those interested in the phenomenon of vanished journals to use the public dataset for their own research.
