Abstract

Since the introduction of the OA transformative agreement as a new way of licensing electronic resources, the number of OA transformative agreements has continued to grow. Despite the wide range of content that should be included in the agreement due to the nature of the OA transformative agreement, there is a lack of research on OA transformative agreements. As a basis for developing a standard for OA transformative agreements, this study examines the current status of OA transformative agreements and analyzes the differences between two types of OA transformative agreements and the subscription contract. It was found that the number of OA transformative agreements has increased significantly worldwide, but the disclosure of OA transformative agreements has not been universalized. The overall structure of two different types of OA transformative agreements and a subscription contract is similar, but there are differences in the detailed clauses. In the OA transformative agreement, the detailed clauses related to the characteristic of the transformative agreement were newly created, or the details of the transformative agreement were added to the existing clauses of the subscription agreement. There were also some differences between the two types of agreements, identifying clauses that differed in content regardless of the OA transformative agreement. The study concluded that it is important to standardize the OA transformative agreement, as the number of different clauses between agreement types may increase the burden on librarians. This study is significant in that it provides a basis for the development of standardized agreements by examining the overall status of OA transformative agreements and analyzing actual agreements.

전자정보 라이선스 계약의 새로운 방안으로 OA 전환계약이 제시된 이후 현재까지 OA 전환계약의 체결은 지속적으로 증가하는 한편, OA 전환계약의 특성상 계약서에 포함되어야 하는 내용이 광범위함에도 불구하고 관련 연구는 미비한 상황이다. 본 연구는 OA 전환계약서의 표준 모델 개발을 위한 기초 연구로, OA 전환계약의 현황을 조사하고 유형별 OA 전환계약서와 구독 계약서의 차이를 분석하였다. 이를 통해 세계적으로 OA 전환계약이 큰 폭으로 증가하는데 반해 OA 전환계약서의 공개는 보편화되지 못한 현황을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 OA 전환계약서와 구독 계약서의 전반적인 구조는 유사하지만, 세부 조항에는 차이가 있다는 점을 밝혔으며 상이한 부분을 유형화하였다. OA 전환계약서에는 전환계약과 관련된 세부 조항이 신설되거나 기존 구독 계약서의 조항에 전환계약 관련 내용이 추가되어 있었으며 OA 전환계약과 무관하게 내용상 차이가 있는 조항도 확인되었다. 분석을 통해 계약 유형에 따라 계약서의 세부 조항이 상이하다는 사실을 확인하였으며, 이는 장기적으로 도서관 사서의 부담을 가중시킬 수 있으므로 OA 전환계약서의 표준화가 필수적임을 밝혔다. 본 연구는 OA 전환계약의 현황을 조사하고 계약 유형별 실제 계약서의 분석을 진행함으로써 표준계약서 개발의 기반을 제시했다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
