Abstract

Résumé

Objectif: Notre article s’intéresse aux effets de la mise à jour 2022 de la politique de diffusion en libre accès des Fonds de recherche du Québec (FRQ) sur les chercheurs-es. La version révisée de la politique est consécutive à l’adhésion des FRQ à la cOAlition S, qui implique d’endosser les principes du Plan S. Nous fournissons une vue d’ensemble des options pour le libre accès offertes aux chercheurs-es au regard des politiques 2019 et 2022 du FRQ et prenons en compte les effets des ententes de transformation (ET) sur les possibilités de publication en libre accès ainsi que les impacts financiers sur les chercheurs-es.

Méthode: Les auteurs ont extrait la liste des publications subventionnées par les FRQ entre 2020 et 2022 à partir des données d’enregistrement de DOI de l’agence Crossref. À partir de cet échantillon, nous avons analysé quantitativement les options pour le libre accès selon la politique précédente (2019) et la politique révisée (2022) en les comparant. Afin de déterminer les effets des ententes de transformation (ET), nous avons analysé les ententes de ce type du consortium national canadien Réseau canadien de documentation pour la recherche (RCDR).

Résultats: Nous avons découvert que l’option de l'auto-archivage pour le libre accès est réduite avec la politique révisée (2022). D’après nos résultats nous anticipons une pression accrue sur les auteurs-es qui seront contraints de payer les frais de publication pour se conformer à la politique révisée.

Conclusion: Les chercheurs-es subventionnés par les FRQ publient principalement dans des revues hybrides, non incluses dans des ententes de transformation. Ainsi, ils devront faire face à des coûts additionnels s'ils maintiennent leur habitude de publication. Des efforts conjoints de la part de toutes les parties prenantes (chercheurs, université, bibliothèque et organismes subventionnaires) seront nécessaires afin d’assurer une transition vers le libre accès immédiat.
