Open access to long-form scholarship is expanding but still lags behind compared to open access to scholarly articles. In this meeting we will explore the landscape of open access book publishing from the perspective of authors, libraries, funders and infrastructure providers.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you would like to contribute a short presentation (e.g. about an initiative or/and experience related to OA book publishing).
