New approaches in library-based
publishing

Convenor, Enabling Open Scholarship
COASP, Paris, 17-19 September 2014
Universities as publishers
• Not new:
– Cambridge University Press founded in 1584
– Oxford University Press formally began publishing
books in 1668
• Decline in activity later in the 20th century
• Now, a resurgence seems to be happening
• Coupled with something new
Why?
• Things have changed
• Threats ... and opportunities
• The Web, and altered expectations from that
• The Open Access imperative
– Particularly with respect to the humanities
– And the need to consider what to do about long-
form publications
• Scholars themselves are taking interest in
dissemination
Humanities
• Lots of new developments
– OA journals
– OA monographs
• Funder and institutional initiatives
– Institutional publishing
– Covering costs
• Technical initiatives
– e.g hypothes.is
• Publishing initiatives (many scholar-led)
Library-based publishing
• Is new ... ish
• ‘Librishers or pubrarians’ (John Unsworth,
SSP 2005)
• A new – upside-down – role for the library
• Seems to match a need for openness
• Plenty of potential content
• Certainly catching on
And why shouldn’t it work?
• Plenty of potential content
• Can help address the issues around open
long-form publications (not just accessibility)
• Potential for collaborative ventures between
library and press (complementary skills)
• Brand advantages to be had
• Looking forward to many more members for
OASPA!
Thank you

New Approaches in Library-Based Publishing, Sept. 2014

  • 1. New approaches in library-based publishing Alma Swan Director, SPARC Europe Director, Key Perspectives Ltd Convenor, Enabling Open Scholarship COASP, Paris, 17-19 September 2014
  • 2. Universities as publishers • Not new: – Cambridge University Press founded in 1584 – Oxford University Press formally began publishing books in 1668 • Decline in activity later in the 20th century • Now, a resurgence seems to be happening • Coupled with something new
  • 3. Why? • Things have changed • Threats ... and opportunities • The Web, and altered expectations from that • The Open Access imperative – Particularly with respect to the humanities – And the need to consider what to do about long- form publications • Scholars themselves are taking interest in dissemination
  • 4.
  • 5. Humanities • Lots of new developments – OA journals – OA monographs • Funder and institutional initiatives – Institutional publishing – Covering costs • Technical initiatives – e.g hypothes.is • Publishing initiatives (many scholar-led)
  • 6.
  • 7. Library-based publishing • Is new ... ish • ‘Librishers or pubrarians’ (John Unsworth, SSP 2005) • A new – upside-down – role for the library • Seems to match a need for openness • Plenty of potential content • Certainly catching on
  • 8.
  • 9.
  • 10. And why shouldn’t it work? • Plenty of potential content • Can help address the issues around open long-form publications (not just accessibility) • Potential for collaborative ventures between library and press (complementary skills) • Brand advantages to be had • Looking forward to many more members for OASPA!
