I’m delighted that the OER has finally been released! Gathering real-life examples from those engaged in this work has been a journey of discovery. I’ve learned so much from those we’ve interviewed, as well as thinking through how values frameworks can help negotiate both the work itself and the interpersonal relationships that work resides. This…[Read more]

Hi David, excellent question! John makes a great suggestion with OATP, which is really useful in keeping up with new announcements and current developments.

David Watson started the topic Is there a list of Open Monograph schemes? in the discussion
Open Access Books Network on Humanities Commons 4 months, 2 weeks ago
There’s now a fair number of different Open Monograph schemes, running different models or variations of models – and new schemes keep launching, ie ‘Path to Open‘ that just launched. This is great, but does mean it’s difficult to keep track of what the current OA monograph landscape looks like.
Is there anywhere a list of these different schemes?
