Black Open Access

Free access to paid scientific articles. “Black” refers to the various methods through which scientific articles or other content are shared illegally. In reference to the 2008 manifesto by Aaron Swarz, illegal access to scientific publications is also referred to as Guerrilla OA.

Bronze Open Access

Scientific publications shared for public circulation, e.g. on the publisher’s website, without specifying the rules for further use under a licence.

This term was coined relatively recently (around 2015) in response to the need to include a new category of open access that did not fit the existing definitions.

Green Open Access

A model of distributing scientific publications and other unpublished effects of scientific activity (e.g. conference posters, multimedia presentations), under which the author independently deposits and makes their work available on the Internet (self-archiving).
