With new funder requirements around openness for books being introduced in the UK and other countries\, this topic is increasingly important to Librarians\, publishers and intermediaries\, and is undergoing rapid development.  \n\n\n\nThe seminar will include a variety of case studies showcasing and exploring the current framework for Open Access monograph publishing in the UK and Europe. It will investigate the diversity of Open Access monograph publishers\, as well as how OA book and chapter provision has evolved over time. The session will also highlight several new collaborative sector initiatives looking to support and foster open access monograph publishing\, as well as several that have a particular focus on expanding the promotion and discovery of open monographs. \n\n\n\nThe course will also look to compare and contrast approaches to monograph provision and support by country\, with case studies from the UK and Sweden. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives \n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnderstand the key challenges in facilitating open access monographs.\n\n\n\n\n\nBe aware of how open access monograph publishing\, and support for this publishing\, has evolved over time.\n\n\n\n\n\nHave an insight into the variety of different forms of Open Access monograph publisher\n\n\n\n\n\nGain an introduction to the existing support framework for researchers looking to produce OA monographs\, including some of the sector initiatives in this area.\n\n\n\n\n\nHave some understanding of how different countries are approaching the challenges of OA monograph support and discovery.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend? \n\n\n\n\n\nThe seminar will be of interest to those involved (or interested) in any area of open access publishing or research support\, especially in the UK and Europe. The subject material will be useful for anyone wishing to develop their understanding of this rapidly developing topic. It will be of particular relevance to librarians\, publishers\, intermediaries and funders who are working directly in the production or support of open access monographs\, or who are having to consider these challenges in light of new funder requirements. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse level and previous knowledge required \n\n\n\n\n\nAttendees should possess an understanding of the fundamentals of Open Access\, as these will not be covered by the event. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPre-event checks \n\n\n\n\n\nTo test your system ahead of time visit https://support.goto.com/webinar/system-check-attendee \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility \n\n\n\n\n\nAt UKSG\, we are committed to ensuring an exceptional experience for all our delegates.

I’ll attempt to give an overview of some of these changes\, focusing particularly on community-led projects I’m involved with\, such as COPIM’s Open Book Futures; policy changes\, including UKRI and the PALOMERA project; and the rise in collective models to support the costs of OA book publishing. I’ll cover some of the challenges these changes pose\, but also the potential for a shift that brings many more readers to the academic book. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLucy Barnes  \n\n\n\nOpen Book Publishers  \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nLucy Barnes is Senior Editor and Outreach Coordinator at Open Book Publishers\, a leading non-profit\, scholar-led Open Access book publisher based in Cambridge\, UK.

She coordinates the Open Access Books Network (oabooksnetwork.org) in collaboration with OAPEN\, OPERAS\, and SPARC Europe\, and she is on the Editorial Advisory Board for the OAPEN Open Access Books Toolkit. She is also part of the PALOMERA project on OA book policy. You can find her on Twitter @alittleroad. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:20 \n\n\n\n\n\nMalmo University Press \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMat Blomberg \n\n\n\nMalmo University Press \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11:00 \n\n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11:15 \n\n\n\n\n\nHow White Rose University Press (WRUP) is navigating the OA landscape: Past\, present and future … \n\n\n\nWhite Rose University Press (WRUP) is a library-led\, non-profit academic press\, we are an established Press having opened our doors in 2016. This talk will focus on our development in relation to the OA landscape to this point\, and next steps on how we intend to build on that growth\, while continuing to support the wider OA community. \n\n\n\nWRUP contributes to initiatives like the Jisc New University Press Toolkit\, co-created a series of Mythbusting workshops focusing on open access monographs\, and is also a founding member of the new Open Institutional Publishing Association; activities which aim to support and drive the OA publishing community. As a Library Publisher\, with other institutional and scholar-led publishing initiatives\, this talk will hopefully show how we are working together to shape a new way forward. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLucy Cook  \n\n\n\nWhite Rose University Press \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nLucy is the Publishing and Communications Assistant for White Rose University Press\, and is based at the University of York. Her role is focussed around increasing the production capacity of\, and supporting advocacy work for\, WRUP.

How do we go about unlocking longform scholarship? UK-authored shortform scholarship now has very high rates of open access. By contrast\, UK-authored longform scholarship remains largely unavailable to the UK public that helps fund its creation. At Arcadia we believe that equitable open access to longform scholarship is eminently achievable\, given sufficient will. Providing open access to scholarship isn’t just for those with ‘external grants’\, it is for everyone. This talk will explore the variety of ways of doing open access monograph publishing. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRoss Mounce \n\n\n\nArcadia  \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\n Ross is Director of Open Access Programmes at Arcadia – a charitable foundation that works to protect nature\, preserve cultural heritage and promote open access to knowledge.

In our pilot year\, we are aiming to make 20 frontlist monographs in African Studies and International Development open access immediately upon publication. In this talk I’ll share our aims and motivations\, explain how the model works and why we designed it this way\, and explore what we’ve learnt so far and what might come next. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRos Pyne  \n\n\n\nBloomsbury Academic  \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nRos Pyne is Global Director\, Research and Open Access at Bloomsbury Academic.

Kriterium is a way of awarding a quality label to academic research\, with a certification that ensures and shows that a scientific publication has undergone a controlled and documented peer review process.

Kriterium is primarily intended for research and researchers with a Swedish connection\, and will thus uphold the tradition of academic books published in Sweden. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUlf Zander \n\n\n\nLund University  \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nUlf Zander is Professor in history at Lund University\, Sweden.
