The status of a work that is subjected to an embargo, which means that the work cannot be published, or in the case of a press release that it cannot be reported on, until a particular date known as the embargo date. For open-access journal articles, an embargoed article is one in which availability of the open-access version of the article is delayed by the publisher for a substantial embargo period, typically of six or twelve months, after subscription-access availability of the published work.
embargoed
The property relating an event to the consequential acquisition of a particular publishing status.
results in acquiring
The status of a work, typically a scholarly journal article, that has been peer reviewed, i.e. subjected to review by two or more independent reviewers (also know as referees) who are academic peers of the author(s), and judged by them to be of sufficient quality to merit publication, usually after further revision by the author to incorporate the reviewers' suggested modifications and improvements.
peer reviewed
The status of a pre-publication work (for example a document or a dataset) when in the authors' opinion it has been brought to a stage of development that renders it suitable for publication.
final draft
The status of an article for which an article processing charge is not required by the publisher.
APC not required
The status of a work (for example a pre-publication document or dataset) that has been voluntarily withdrawn by the author, having previously been submitted for publication, perhaps because the revisions requested by the peer-reviewers were considered impossible to achieve, or because the author wishes to submit it for publication elsewhere.

The status of material (for example a document or a dataset) that has been published, i.e. made available for people to access, read or use, either freely or for a purchase price or an access fee.
published
A state or condition that a document may have that relates to the publication of such document.
publishing status
The status of a work (typically a scholarly paper or a dataset) to which access is restricted. For example, confidential information to which access is made available only to those who have been approved by the owner or copyright holder of the asset after personal application, or to those with appropriate security clearance, or to those within a partnership.
restricted access
A time interval during which a status is held by a document.
at time
The property relating a particular publishing status to the event that causes its loss.
is lost as consequence of
A status in time describes always: - a particular status S - a particular document D holding S - a particular time interval T in which D holds S - a particular event that causes the acquisition of S by D
status in time
A particular situation that describe a state or condition some documents may have at a particular time as consequence of one or more events.
It specifies the particular temporal instant or time period in which the situation takes place.
The status of a published work, for example a book or a journal article, that has been subjected to a written review giving critical analysis of its content, scope and quality. [See also pso:peer-reviewed.]

The status of an article for which the article processing charge has been paid to the publisher by the author or his/her institution.
APC paid
within context
It links to the specific context within which the fact of the entity having the value is relevant.
The status of a work (for example a document or a dataset) that has been submitted for publication by the author to a publisher or a data repository, prior to its being accepted or rejected.
submitted
The status of a pre-publication document late in the publication process, once it has been accepted for publication by a publisher, after the inclusion of any author corrections required by the editor following peer-review, following copy editing and formatting to bring the manuscript into the house style, and prior to final checking by the editor, proof-reader and author to detect and eliminate any errors prior to publication.
proof
The status of a published work which is both free to read on-line, and to which additional usage rights apply, for example the right to text mine, make derivative works, re-use and re-publish the published work, such rights frequently being defined by application of an explicit license such as a Creative Commons license. [See also: pso:open-access, pso:gratis-open-access, pso:gold-open-access, pso:green-open-access, pso:embargoed and pso:subscription-access.]
libre open access
The property relating the definition of a specific status to the situation of the document, a dataset or something else holding that status at a specific time.

version of record
The status of a pre-publication work (for example a document or a dataset) when in its initial stage of development.

under review
The status of s work (for example a document or a dataset) that has been altered or improved, typically by the original author.
revised
An entity, such as a person, a group, an organization or a software agent, involved in one or more events.
agent
The status of a published work which is free to read on-line, in contrast to subscription-access works, but to which licensing restrictions apply, limiting the possibilities for downloading, text mining, modification, re-publication or re-use of the published work. The term Gratis Open Access thus signifies absence of a price barrier to view. While both imply ‘free’ (a potentially ambiguous word), Gratis Open Access equates to ‘free as in beer’ while Libre Open Access (q.v.) equates to ‘free as in speech’. Gratis Open Access is thus a necessary but not a sufficient condition for true Libre Open Access. Many ‘open access’ publications by commercial scholarly publishers are only Gratis Open Access, while almost all publications by ‘pure’ Open Access scholarly publishers are Libre Open Access. [See also: pso:open-access, pso:libre-open-access, pso:gold-open-access, pso:green-open-access, pso:embargoed and pso:subscription-access.]
gratis open access
The status of a work (for example a document or a dataset) that has been updated or enhanced, for example by the provision of additional or supplementary material.
enhanced
time-indexed value in context
A pattern for the description of scenarios that involve entities having some value during a particular time and within a particular context.
Sometimes, we need to describe scenarios in which someone (e.g., a person) has a value (e.g., a particular role) during a particular time and for a particular context. Four different things are involved in these kinds of scenarios: 1. the entity having some value, e.g. a person or a document possessing a role or a status; 2. the value had by someone, e.g. a role or a status; 3. the time period during which the entity has that value, e.g. from April 2008 to September 2008; 4. the particular context that characterises the act of having that value, e.g. being a member of an institution or an editor of a particular journal. Thought as natural extension of the Time-indexed Situation pattern (http://ontologydesignpatterns.org/wiki/Submissions:TimeIndexedSituation), this ontological pattern, called Time-indexed Value in Context (TVC), is able to describe these kinds of scenarios.
The Time-indexed Value in Context
The status of an article for which an article processing charge is not charged by the publisher.
APC not charged
The status of a work (for example a document or a dataset) once it has been accepted for publication by a publisher or data repository.
accepted for publication
A project (a collective endeavour of some kind).
The status of a published work, typically an article in a journal issue, that is not available to read without payment of an article access fee or a journal subscription fee for that publication.
subscription access
The status of material (for example a document or a dataset) after it has been rejected for publication by a publisher or data repository.
rejected for publication
value in time
Having the role "graduate student" in a specific time (e.g., now) and context (e.g., "University of Bologna").
It defines a particular kind of time-indexed situation that represents a hub linking the entity having a particular value, the value itself and the temporal and contextual extents from which the entity-value relationship depends.
document
An abstract class defining any kinds of publishing work.
The status of a work (for example a document or a dataset) prior to completion and publication.
draft
The status of a document or dataset that has been subjected to anonymization, so that individual persons, for example the authors and/or people that are the subjects described in the document or dataset, cannot be identified.
anonymized
The property relating an event to the consequential loss of a particular publishing status.
results in losing
The status of a work (for example a document or a dataset) in which errors, that may have introduced by the author, by a publisher, or by some automated process, have been corrected.
corrected
The status of a publication that has been subsequently retracted by the publisher, for example because it was subsequently found to contain erroneous or fraudulent information.
retracted from publication
The status of a published work made available by the author, by self-archiving a version of the work for free and open public use in their institutional repository, in a central repository, or elsewhere, in parallel with publication of a subscription-access Version of Record of the work by a publisher. The green open-access version of the work may be a preprint (the version of the article as first submitted for publication) or a postprint (the pre-publication version of the article after incorporation of authors’ responses to peer reviewers’ comments). Its availability may have an embargo restriction imposed by the publisher of the subscription-access version of the work, that prevents the green open-access version from being freely available until some substantial time after publication of the subscription-access journal issue containing that article. A green open-access work should be accompanied by a license explicitly defining usage rights, for example a Creative Commons Attribution License. [See also: pso:open-access, pso:gratis-open-access, pso:libre-open-access, pso:gold-open-access, pso:embargoed and pso:subscription-access.]
green open access
A property relating a document, a dataset or some other thing to a status that it holds at a specific time.
holds status in time
The status of a publication (for example a book) that has been republished in a different edition or in translation, or of a work (for example a journal article or a poem) that is republished as part of a collection or an anthology, or of material (for example a figure from an existing publication) that is republished as part of a quite different publication. Where the publisher of the new work is different from the original publisher, such republication typically includes an acknowledgement of the source and copyright of the original material, and is undertaken after obtaining permission of the original copyright holder.
republished
A state or condition that a document may have.
status
An agent (eg. person, group, software or physical artifact).
The status of a document after it has been accepted for publication and prior to its formal publication in print. (Note that for many journal articles that are published electronically, this status rarely exists, since there is commonly no delay between acceptance and publication.)

PSO, the Publishing Status Ontology, is an ontology for describing the status held by a bibliographic document or other publication entity at each of the various stages in the publishing process. It forms part of SPAR, a suite of Semantic Publishing and Referencing Ontologies. Other SPAR ontologies are described at http://purl.org/spar/.
PSO, the Publishing Status Ontology, is an ontology written in OWL 2 DL for characterizing the publication status of a document or other publication entity at each of the various stages in the publishing process (e.g. draft, submitted, under review, rejected, accepted for publication, proof, published, Version of Record, catalogued, archived). Because it is based on the Time-indexed Value in Context ontology pattern (http://www.essepuntato.it/2012/04/tvc), it is easy to extends the set of specified statuses, simply by adding new individual to the class pso:Status or its sub-class pso:PublicationStatus.
PSO, the Publishing Status Ontology
The status of a document that has been subjected to copy editing, i.e. alterations to the text undertaken by someone other than the author that are designed to improve the formatting, style and accuracy of text, or to bring the text into the house style of the publisher (e.g. Americanization of British spelling), but that are not designed to alter the substance or meaning of the text.
copy-edited

FOAF Essential ontology
Two (starting and ending) points in time that define a particular period of time.
time interval
The status of a pre-publication work (for example a document or a dataset) part-way through its development.
intermediate draft
The status of a work (for example a document or a dataset) that has not been published by the author, a publisher or a data repository.

non-confidential
has value
It links an entity (e.g., a Person) to a particular ValueInTime situation;
The status of a work (for example a document or a dataset) that has been saved for long-term preservation in a physical or electronic archive.
archived
The status of a published work (typically a scholarly publication or a dataset) that is freely available via the Internet for third parties to read without payment of access or subscription fees, and (in the case of a work published under a full open-access license) that is freely available to download and reuse for any purposes including commercial ones, including modification of the original work, its integration with other material, and its re-publication, subject typically to a requirement that the original authors and the source of the original work are acknowledged in compliance with scholarly citation norms. [See also: pso:gratis-open-access, pso:libre-open-access, pso:gold-open-access, pso:green-open-access, pso:embargoed and pso:subscription-access.]
open access
The property relating the holding of a status by a document, a dataset or something else at a specific time to the definition of that status.
with status
A state or condition that a document may have that relates to a fee levied by a publisher on an author or an institution to cover the cost of publishing an Open Access journal article.
article processing charge status
The status of a work (for example a document or a dataset) concerning which metadata has been stored in a physical or electronic catalogue.
catalogued
The status of a published work, typically a journal article, made available by the publisher on the publisher's own web site for third parties to read without payment of access or subscription fees. Gold open access has the benefit that the article is findable where you expect it to be, but licensing restrictions may limit the possibilities for downloading, text mining, modification, re-publication or re-use of the published work. Gold open-access publication typically involves payment by the author or his/her institution to the publisher of an article processing charge (aka an author publishing charge). [See also: pso:open-access, pso:gratis-open-access, pso:libre-open-access, pso:green-open-access, pso:embargoed and pso:subscription-access.]
