Mainstreaming Open Access Monographs [ACRL/Choice webinar] In-Person

Publishers, vendors, and libraries endorse and fund many open monograph publishing activities, but even as books make their way into open access, digitally-native formats, they frequently remain invisible to end users, or at least hard to find. Often, library management systems and distribution platforms surface only paid electronic or print versions of a book without any indication that an open access version exists. How then do open access monographs achieve the visibility and influence of traditionally published books?
 
Join ACRL and Choice for a discussion of these issues and others around open monograph discoverability and distribution from the perspectives of publishers, vendors, and libraries.
 
Panelists include representatives of the University of Michigan Press, GOBI Library Solutions, and Oberlin College Library.
