Motivation - Gaining a better understanding of the uptake of hybrid open access publishing - Provide an easy-to-use open source dashboard - Promote open standards and services
Background – Library Number and proportion of open articles in subscription-based journals have become key indicators when negotiating open access transition aggrements!
Background – Bibliometrics - Many publishers offer hybrid open access journals (Suber 2012) - Studying the uptake of hybrid open access is limited by varying definitions and practices to label OA articles (Laakso & Björk 2016 ; Björk 2017) - Hybrid OA defined in contrast to delayed open access (Laakso & Björk 2016) - Free under an open content license (Piwowar 2018)
Data-driven definition hybrid open access - Academic institutions sponsored open access publication according to the Open APC initiative - Publishers shared licensing information about fulltext accessibility and re-use rights with Crossref

Outlook
Practical considerations for ESAC - Continue to promote open and rich metadata helping to increase transparency and efficiency of open access journal publishing - Provide more guidance for publishers, funders and libraries how to share metadata through Crossref - Licensing information - Author and Affiliations - Funder information - Open References
In summary - Hybrid OA Journal monitor is an easy-to-use analytical application about the uptake of hybrid open access journal publishing across publishers and journals - Rich metadata and cost information is critical - Transition agreements have the potential to promote good metadata practises
