Abstract

One of the mandates of CMFRI is to act as clearing house of research and general information relating to marine fisheries through its publications and other information that it disseminates. These scientific papers published since 1953 are not well documented for wide spread utility of scientific community both inside as well as outside India. The research output must be applied to achieve the broader developmental objectives of the scientific society which may result in public accountability of the research. But the dissemination of research output is a major challenge and until it is known to the world the research has no meaning. The knowledge of this marine research should be made available for the public freely. The recent developments in Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) has brought drastic changes to conventional communication channels of scientific communications, information, sharing and accessing behaviour of the scholarly community. The ICTs have paved the way for the global Open movement among scholarly communities. Open Access to science and scholarship means making scholarly research articles freely available to the public online without any restrictions.
