</div>News Release and Video Interview | Amherst CollegeAmherst College is launching a new digital publishing venture that will offer peer-reviewed books written by leading scholars in the humanities and the social sciences that are then carefully edited and made available for free online. <span>Conceived by Amherst College Librarian Bryn Geffert,</span><span> </span><a href="https://www.amherst.edu/mm/338695">Amherst College Press</a><span> </span><span>will be housed in the college’s</span><span> </span><a href="https://www.amherst.edu/library">Frost Library</a><span> </span><span>and will solicit manuscripts from scholars who may be especially receptive to new publishing paradigms at a time when traditional academic presses are reducing the number of titles they publish. '</span><span>We will be the first university or college press to publish books solely under an open-access model,' said</span><span> </span><a href="https://www.amherst.edu/aboutamherst/news/news_releases/2009/12/node/146515">Geffert</a><span>. 'Although several university presses publish a few books each year under such a model, I do not know of another university press in the United States doing all books, all open-access.' </span><span>Geffert observed that the endeavor exemplifies the college’s motto,</span><span> </span><em>Terras Irradient</em><span>, a Latin phrase that means 'Let them give light to the world...' </span><span>The project has the strong support of the college’s president, Biddy Martin, who serves on an American Academy of Arts and Sciences commission that encourages research in the humanities and social sciences... </span><span>Additional incentives for scholars to participate in this model will be much wider readership, a rigorous peer-review process and a level of editorial collaboration not typically available in traditional academic publishing houses... </span><span>At the outset, Amherst College Press will publish solely in liberal arts disciplines such as political science, literary studies, history, economics and anthropology—areas for which Amherst is well known. The press will produce books in formats that will be suitable for most e-readers; print-on-demand may be available. The press will not focus on print production or distribution. </span><span>Plans are in place to hire a director and two editors to staff the press. </span><span>Funding for the press will come from the Frost Library and from an endowed position for which the college is currently raising money. The college also expects that the content of the Amherst College-affiliated literary magazine</span><a href="http://www.thecommononline.org/"> </a><a href="http://www.thecommononline.org/"><em>The Common</em></a><span> </span><span>will be freely available online under the open-access model governing the press, while</span><span> </span><em>The Common</em><span> </span><span>will continue to use its own resources to produce the publication’s print version..."</span><div><span> </span></div>tag:tagteam.harvard.edu,2005:FeedItem/697442012-12-07T22:14:20-05:002012-12-11T11:08:53-05:00eastman<span><div> </div></span><a href="http://crln.acrl.org/content/73/11/650.full" title="Openness, value, and scholarly societies: The Modern Language Association model">Openness, value, and scholarly societies: The Modern Language Association model</a><div>

</div>Openness, value, and scholarly societiesUse the link to access the full text article. An excerpt reads as follows: "In 2011, the Modern Language Association (MLA) established a new office of scholarly communication and began a series of experiments in ways of supporting the open exchange of scholarly work among its members. While the office and its platforms are new, the motivating force behind the office is not. From the beginning, scholarly societies were designed to play a crucial role in facilitating communication between scholars working on common subjects. The Royal Society of London, for instance, was founded in the mid-17th century as a means of helping the 'invisible college' of natural philosophers attain visibility; the society met weekly to discuss experiments and their results, and its members worked together to extend knowledge of the natural world.1 These face-to-face meetings were supplemented by an active correspondence among the members; their mode of communication gradually shifted from letters sent between individual members to correspondence gathered, reproduced, and distributed by the society. The society thus became a formal structure whose goal was to improve the circulation of the research of its members, furthering the knowledge that they produced and advancing their common work. Such has been true for every learned society founded since that time. Facilitating scholarly communication, in other words, is exactly what societies such as these were founded to do... <span>Today, however, many scholarly societies, like many academic institutions, are facing challenging times. Maintaining a membership in one’s disciplinary organization was once thought of as a core component of what it was to be a professional, but the changing funding environment, the increasing casualization of the academic workforce, and the ease of creating direct ties among individual colleagues in online social networking systems have contributed to the tenuous relationships that many scholars feel to their organizations today. Scholarly societies thus face rising costs and declining memberships, causing them to rely increasingly on income from publications—at precisely the moment that they face increasing expectations among scholars that information and communication will exist in open spaces online. Increasing calls for open access to scholarship are posing serious challenges to the financial models that have allowed scholarly societies to fund the nonrevenue generating projects that they have established on behalf of their members. </span><span>Together, these twin pressures—the need to enhance the ties between scholars and their organizations while simultaneously doing more with less —begin to suggest that the traditional value proposition of the scholarly society, in which one becomes a member in order to receive the various communications of the society, is no longer as viable as it once was. But there isn’t a clear sense, as yet, of where the society’s value for its members today, not to mention its sources of revenue that allow it to fulfill its mission, might lie. In order to find a way forward, today’s scholarly societies must begin to think differently about their functions, their structures, and their overall goals..."</span>tag:tagteam.harvard.edu,2005:FeedItem/635192012-11-24T15:38:23-05:002012-11-28T04:46:09-05:00Is Open Access only for rich countries?Posted by eastman to oa.developing oa.science oa.funding oa.new oa.journals on Tue Nov 27 2012tag:tagteam.harvard.edu,2005:FeedItem/646232012-11-28T04:46:10-05:002012-11-28T04:46:10-05:00eastman<span><div> </div></span><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/higher-education-network/blog/2012/nov/22/open-access-research-publishing-academics?" title="Open access: why academic publishers still add value">Open access: why academic publishers still add value</a><div>www.guardian.co.uk</div><div>

</div>"Confronting the Crisis in Scientific Publishing: Latency, Licensing an" by Jorge L. Contreras<p><span>Use the link to download the full text paper from the institutional repository at American University Washington College of Law. The abstract reads as follows: "The serials crisis in scientific publishing can be traced to the long duration of copyright protection and the assignment of copyright by researchers to publishers. Over-protection of scientific literature has enabled commercial publishers to increase subscription rates to a point at which access to scientific information has been curtailed with negative social welfare consequences. The uniformity costs imposed by such over-protection can be addressed by tailoring intellectual property rights, either through legal change or private ordering. </span><span>Current open access channels of distribution offer alternative approaches to scientific publishing, but neither the Green OA self-archiving nor the Gold OA author-pays models has yet achieved widespread acceptance. Moreover, recent proposals to abolish copyright protection for academic works, while theoretically attractive, may be difficult to implement in view of current legislative and judicial dispositions. Likewise, funder open access mandates such as the NIH OA Policy, which are already responsible for the public release of millions of scientific articles, are susceptible to various risks and political uncertainty. </span><span>In this article, I propose an alternative private ordering solution based on latency values observed in open access stakeholder negotiation settings. Under this proposal, research institutions would collectively develop and adopt publication agreements that do not transfer copyright ownership to publishers, but instead grant publishers a one-year exclusive period in which to publish a work. This limited period of exclusivity should enable the publisher to recoup its costs and a reasonable profit through subscription revenues, while restoring control of the article copyright to the author at the end of the exclusivity period. This balanced approach addresses the needs of both publishers and the scientific community, and would, I believe, avoid many of the challenges faced by existing open access models."</span> </p>
