*** Apologies for cross posting *** ALPSP Seminar The Publisher’s and Librarian’s Challenge: Models, practices and products to sustain OA publishing Tuesday 14 June 2016, London (full day seminar) Chair: Will Schweitzer, Director, Product Development for the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) #alpspoa OVERVIEW Open access presents numerous challenges and opportunities to almost every aspect of a publisher’s business and to a library’s budgets and operations. Market economics and prevailing business models suggest a publisher should minimize costs, focus on serving authors, and prioritize new infrastructure to support one-off transactions with individuals over long-term relationships with institutions. -What does all this mean for publishers nurturing OA programmes or thinking about starting one? -Are there ways to ensure OA initiatives can be commercially successful without long-term subsidies or solely relying on article processing charges? -How should libraries get OA publications into discovery tools? -What role should libraries play in preserving OA content? -Should money to support OA publishing come from the library budget? -Is there a freemium model in which OA content is free but libraries pay for additional features? Join leading library and publishing professionals in this ALPSP seminar to find out how others are tackling these questions. WHO SHOULD ATTEND? This seminar is ideal for librarians, journal publishers, research funders, open access advocates and society executives. The diverse panel will discuss the current state of open access publishing, and how to make open access sustainable, through a variety of lenses. Each panellist welcomes commentary or questions at the end of their talk. SPEAKER FOCUS Michael Levine-Clark, Interim Dean and Director, University of Denver Libraries discusses Open Access and the Library Join Michael for an overview of the key trends and concerns, from a US perspective, that face librarians as they lead their communities through the process of implementing open access.
