Open Access is also increasingly being provided to theses, scholarly monographs and book chapters.

Open Access comes in two degrees: Gratis Open Access is no-cost online access, while Libre Open Access is Gratis Open Access

plus some additional usage rights.

Open content is similar to Open Access, but usually includes the right to modify the work, where as in scholarly publishing it is

usual to keep an article’s content intact and to associate it with a fixed author or fixed group of authors. Creative Commons

licenses can be used to specify usage rights. The Open Access idea can also be extended to the learning objects and resources

provided in e-learning.

OMICS Group Inc. is one of the Open access publisher which provides journals in the form of Open Access.
