description In the early 2000s attendees of a meeting in Budapest drafted the first formal declaration advocating Open Access to scientific and scholarly literature. After that, there have been many other discussions, declarations and key initiatives on Open Access to research publications around the world. Despite the Open Access movement is now over twenty years old and growing interest to remove barriers to peer-reviewed scholarly literature, there is not up-to-date and reproducible studies assessing the prevalence and characteristics of Open Access specifically in the Insular Caribbean Region. The purpose of this study is to trace outgrowth and development of Open Access in this region over the last two decades. The bibliographic data collected was extracted from Scopus. We elaborated indicators related about Open Access typology, evolution, most productive countries, institutional affiliation, documents by sponsors, journals, languages, and thematic areas. The findings disclosed that Open Access publishing is increasingly in the region and the golden route has experienced greater advances. Cuba and Puerto Rico stand out with the highest open production. We hope our analysis might serve as a basis for scientific institutions of the region to implement policies and initiatives supporting Open Access models of scientific communication.

A principios de la década del 2000, los asistentes de una reunión en Budapest redactaron la primera declaración formal a favor del Acceso Abierto a la literatura científica y académica. Desde entonces, ha habido muchos otros debates, declaraciones e iniciativas clave sobre el Acceso Abierto a las publicaciones de investigación en todo el mundo. A pesar de que el movimiento de Acceso Abierto tiene ahora más de veinte años y un creciente interés por eliminar las barreras a la literatura académica revisada por pares, no hay estudios actualizados y reproducibles que evalúen la prevalencia y las características del Acceso Abierto específicamente en la Región del Caribe Insular. El propósito de este estudio es rastrear el crecimiento y desarrollo del Acceso Abierto en esta región durante las últimas dos décadas. Los datos bibliográficos recogidos fueron extraídos de Scopus. Se elaboraron indicadores relacionados con la tipología del Acceso Abierto, evolución, países más productivos, afiliación institucional, documentos por patrocinadores, revistas, idiomas y áreas temáticas. Los hallazgos revelaron que la publicación en Acceso Abierto es cada vez mayor en la región y la ruta dorada ha experimentado mayores avances. Cuba y Puerto Rico destacan con la mayor producción abierta. Esperamos que nuestro análisis pueda servir de base para que las instituciones científicas de la región implementen políticas e iniciativas de apoyo a los modelos de comunicación científica de Acceso Abierto. No início dos anos 2000, os participantes de uma reunião em Budapeste redigiram a primeira declaração formal defendendo o acesso aberto à literatura científica e acadêmica. Depois disso, ocorreram muitas outras discussões, declarações e iniciativas importantes sobre o acesso aberto a publicações de pesquisa em todo o mundo. Apesar do movimento do Acesso Livre ter mais de vinte anos e do crescente interesse em remover as barreiras à literatura acadêmica revisada por pares, não há estudos atualizados e reproduzíveis que avaliem a prevalência e as características do Acesso Livre especificamente na região do Caribe Insular. O objetivo deste estudo é traçar o crescimento e o desenvolvimento do Acesso Aberto nessa região nas últimas duas décadas. Os dados bibliográficos coletados foram extraídos da Scopus. Foram elaborados indicadores relacionados à tipologia do acesso aberto, evolução, países mais produtivos, afiliação institucional, documentos por financiadores, periódicos, idiomas e áreas temáticas. Os resultados revelaram que a publicação em acesso aberto está crescendo na região e que a rota dourada tem experimentado maiores avanços. Cuba e Porto Rico se destacam com a maior produção em acesso aberto. Esperamos que nossa análise possa servir de base para que as instituições científicas da região implementem políticas e iniciativas de apoio aos modelos de comunicação científica de acesso aberto.
