A journal subscription or an individual article purchase fee would be required in order to access the materials before this embargo period ends. Some delayed open access journals also deposit their publications in Institutional repository open repositories when the author is bound by an immediate or delayed Open access mandate . Many scholarly society journals have adopted the delayed access model. While this increases access to scholarly research literature for many, libraries that do continue subscriptions under this model end up paying for access to a rolling file of the most recent material during its embargo period.

  1. Broadband open access

    Broadband open access is an issue of policy debate in telecommunications , regarding whether or not companies which own broadband telecommunication infrastructure such as cable operators should be required to provide access to their facilities for competing businesses which do not own physical infrastructure. The issue came to the fore in United States the U.S. in 1998, when AT&T announced its plan to acquire TCI , then the nation s largest cable operator. It involved municipal and local governments, the courts, Federal Communications Commission the FCC , Congress, businesses, industry association s, consumer advocacy groups , and many others. Similar issues arose in other countries such as the Netherlands , Hungary , and Canada . In the United States, cable operators were not required to provide access to their facilities to other competing businesses.

  1. Open access poll

    An open access poll is a type of opinion poll in which participants are self selection self selected . The term includes call in, mail in, and some online polls. tocright The most common examples of open access polls ask people to phone a number, click a voting option on a website , or return a coupon cut from a newspaper . By contrast, professional polling companies use a variety of techniques to attempt to ensure that the polls they conduct are representative, reliable and scientific. The most glaring difference between an open access poll and a legitimate poll is that open access polls have self selected participants, while scientific polls typically randomly select their samples occasionally on the street or at the door, but much more commonly by telephone or on the internet and weight them to make them representative. See Opinion Poll for more information. Advantages Since participants in an open access poll are volunteers rather than a random sample , such polls represent the most interested individuals, just as in voting. In the case of political polls, such participants might be more likely voters, and elections are won by those that show up. Disadvantages Due to selection bias , open access polls may not have participants that represent the larger population. As a consequence, the results of the poll cannot be generalized, but are only valid for the participants of the poll. Online poll An online poll is a survey in which participants communicate responses via the Internet, typically by completing a questionnaire in a web page. Online polls may allow anyone to participate, or they may be restricted to a sample drawn from a larger panel. The use of online panels has become increasingly popular and is now the single biggest research method in Australia. ref cite web url http www.amsrs.com.au index.cfm?a detail&eid 142&id 2672 title Push for online poll arises opinions ... networking DEFAULTSORT Open Access Poll Category Types of polling Category Article Feedback 5 ...   more details
