Coinciding with the 10 year anniversary of one of the milestones in
the Open Access Movement, the Berlin Declaration, Taylor & Francis are
pleased to issue the final announcement on the Open access survey
identifying trends in responses according to age range or professional
status .

Licence preference by age

The greatest support for the Creative Commons Non-Commercial
No-Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) license was from young authors in their
20s or 30s. A third of authors in their 30s (32%) selected CC BY-NC-ND
as their most preferred licence . Authors in their 50s and 60s favour
traditional licenses: Exclusive License to Publish and Copyright
Assignment while Copyright Assignment is the most preferred licences
for those over 70.

Attitudes towards re-use by age

Authors over 60 are happy for work to be re-used, adapted and
translated but show little support for the Creative Commons licences
required before their work can be adapted and re-used.

Attitudes towards re-use by  professional status

There are no great differences in responses from respondents across
the various professional statuses. The most notable difference
observed  was among retired authors who are a lot more receptive to
others using their work but less inclined to support the CC required
to allow this to happen.

This bulletin is accompanied by Supplements 9 and10 to the original
report – which analyses attitudes relating to age and professional
status in full:
