via google translation: Membership in OPERAS promotes the Royal Library's coordination assignment for open access OPERAS (Open Scholarly Communication in the European Research Area for Social Sciences and Humanities) works to support and develop open access to scientific books in the humanities and social sciences. The aim is, among other things, to develop sustainable and common services, in particular a pan-European digital infrastructure for openly accessible books. In this way, data and publications are collected that are today isolated in local repositories. Since 2017, KB has had a government assignment to coordinate the work for open access to scientific publications, including scientific books. KB's study Open Access to Books (2019) emphasized "that international developments should be continuously monitored and analyzed, in order to stabilize the national transition to an openly accessible publishing landscape for scientific books". The membership in OPERAS makes it easier for KB to follow international developments in the field.
