The document discusses a publisher's approach to open access journals. The publisher, AUP, works with partners like universities to start new open access journals with shared funding. One example is the Journal of Archaeology in the Low Countries, which was started with funding from two institutes and seven additional partners. Each partner contributes 2000 Euros per year towards the 18,000 Euro annual costs of publishing the journal open access. This allows for open access to research while keeping costs low through cooperation.

- 1. New emerging Business Models in Journal Publishing Martin Voigt
- 2. AUP in a nutshell : - founded in 1992 - 25 employees - 170 new titles in 2009, 206 in total - Humanities and social science - In 2009: 55% English, 45% Dutch - 7 Journals: 3 print, 4 Open Access
- 3. Why Open Access ? - enlarges the usasge of scientific literature - enhances the visibility of authors - enlarges the quality of science
- 4. How? All first-copy-costs for authors, their institutes, or the body who finances the research.
- 5. Why Open Access journals? - Science must be free accessible - Journal market is in serial crisis: stops development of new journals - Shrinking audience - Advantages of the internet (enhanced publications)
- 8. How does AUP do it: If there is a need or opportunity for a journal, create a financial basis within the scientific partners: - Libraries, faculties, institutes, etc.
- 9. More partners = smaller contribution
- 10. Advantages for partners: - Cheaper than most subscriptions - Partners co-create the journal (advisory board) - Quality of the content is ensured - Less competiton within the area
- 12. Case Study: Journal of Archeology in the Low Countries (JALC)
- 13. Two institutes asked AUP to calculate the costs for an OA Journal for Archeology in Holland and Belgium. Together we found another 7 partners to start.
- 14. Yearly costs for OA-journal: € 18.000 * journal editor (parttime ) * IT-development * overhead costs publisher For 1 article per month (to start)
- 15. Costs per partner per year: € 2.000 + their investment in time for acquisition, peer reviewing & editorial board
- 16. Results: 100 % penetration in Dutch archeology community 1000 unique visitors every month (# of international visitors N/A)
- 17. Earning model for AUP: All costs are paid (no risk) POD service for articles (subscriptionbased): - 2 issues a year - 128 pages - Costs: € 99,95 a year - in june 2010: 45 subscriptions (steady)
- 18. JALC is an enhanced publication: - Publications combined with research data - Improve interpretation and verification - Promote available data - Browsable network related items - Makes it easier to verify , reproduce , and re-use the results of research .
- 19. Examples:

Editor's Notes
- Amsterdam University Press is founded in 1992 by the University of Amsterdam,
- Therefore we added a more dynamic version [CLICK]
- This is a dataviewer based on MIT’s Simile software, which allows client-side presentation/functionality such as sorting, [CLICK] faceted filtering and downloading of the data.

- It also Easily provides analization via a scatterplot. A useful instrument for making comparisons.
- Another example of an enhancement is based on the data of an excavation of a burial [CLICK]
- This is how it is usually presented [CLICK]
- And this is what an online Geographical Information System (GIS) can add. It provides the basic GIS features like…. [CLICK]
- Changing the background, e.g. into X-ray images…[CLICK]
- … .Separate the different subjects…
- And take a closer look
- Back to the theory, to what we learned. First the traditional view: A publication with images, and the ability to link to the original data. What JALC wants to do goes a little further: they want to allow readers to take an easy / close look at the data, without barriers like entering a repository, authentication, downloading, opening tools, etc. This requires the availability of tools, configuration, en connection / conversion of data. The challenge then becomes: how to implement this within a distributed repository infrastructure, and ensure the integrity of this publication? This roughly comes down to: who takes (is able to take) responsibility for these different components, and how will possible migrations be ‘aligned’?
