- #32 Call for submissions for the digitisation, encoding and electronic publication of books in the humanities and social sciences OpenEdition, the electronic resource portal, is launching a call for submissions from university presses, private publishers and learned societies publishing high quality books in the humanities and social sciences who wish to distribute a part of their catalogue in Open Access. OpenEdition offers to digitise, then publish and distribute online in Open Access all or part of publishers’ book catalogue on its dedicated platform, OpenEdition Books. The program is run by the Centre for Open Electronic Publishing (Cléo), a non-profit making institution, financed by the French State. It aims to build an international library for the digital humanities, while encouraging publishers to adopt Open Access in the long term. Joining OpenEdition Books means: Joining the OpenEdition ecosystem, one of the leading European open electronic publishing platforms, which includes the renowned platforms: Revues.org, Calenda and Hypotheses. Together all sites attract almost 3 million visits per month from around the world. Integration in a platform that will steadily grow to 15,000 books. Our program promotes all cultural domains, through all historical periods in most scientific languages. The ambition of OpenEdition Books is summed up thus: “Understanding the world in every language.” Taking part in an innovative program that is developing a steadfast economic model for Open Access. The program is known as OpenEdition Freemium, and consists of selling services and products derived on the basis of Open Access work. Open Access books distributed in HTML format, legible in a web browser, can be downloaded in detachable formats (PDF, ePub, Mobi) exclusively for the users of subscriber libraries. Other users can purchase these formats on a unit-by-unit basis at one of over one hundred electronic online libraries (iBookstore, Amazon, etc.).
