White Rose University Press Open Book Publishers Open Book Collective Sarah also raises a REALLY important question that we also reflect on at COPIM ([email protected]) -- why should a library have a principles-led strategy for #OA but NOT for paywalled content? So York are developing a principles-led strategy for ALL library content. [Hooray!!]

Well worth reading this... The issue to me is whether non-commercial diamond can scale to take a much larger % of REF books (and whether policy allows investment at infrastructure not output level). Otherwise BPC, commercial led will have all the problems of journals

VERY well deserved recognition for the huge efforts Martin Paul Eve has taken advocating for and enabling open access publishing ....

If you haven’t already seen it, the COPIM ([email protected]) piece on #REF2029 OA policy echoes our developing thinking at University of London Press ⬇️ We also strongly welcome moves towards #OA as default - but with support for diamond infrastructures rather than individual outputs for this round.
