Chronological Transitions among Types of Open Access in a Bibliometric Dataset of Articles on Open Science

by Moses Boudourides, Giannis Tsakonas and Sergios Lenis

We have searched in all Clarivate Analytics’ Web of Science indices, namely SCI EXPANDED, SSCI, A&HCI and ESCI, for publications in the fields of Open Science and Open Access. We have limited the scope of our query to the ‘Title’ field, used the terms ‘open access’ and ‘open science’ as the prime ones, and after consecutive attempts we finalized our query string using Boolean operators to avoid similar terms. The term ‘open access’ is common for other research fields too, including medical operations (open access endoscopy), rural development (open access land), fishery (open access fishery plants), and so on.
