Reveal Digital: an open access model empowering libraries to become publishers - GLAHN - 2015 - Learned Publishing - Wiley Online Library

"Key points

• Digitizing cultural heritage, humanities, content is currently being undertaken with institutional or government support but there are opportunities for greater library collaboration.
• Using a crowdfunding model to support the creation of digitized collections empowers librarians but also challenges them to think like investors and publishers.
• The described model creates an open access collection for the benefit of all scholars and also provides additional benefits for the participating libraries."
