Meet an Open Access publisher Tickets, Thu, Dec 10, 2015 at 11:00 AM | Eventbrite

"Have you ever wondered what Open Access publishing actually is? Many people associate ' Open Access' with Article Processing Charges for journal articles, but can this business model work for books, and if so, how? Are Open Access books always free? Can Open Access book publishing ever hope to be a profitable business? This wide ranging session will cover how librarians can be active participants in Open Access , both by providing information to researchers about Open Access publishing opportunities, and by highlighting Open Access material that the library subscribes to. Join us for a short talk and question and answer session with Rupert Gatti and Alessandra Tosi, the co-founders of Open Book Publishers based here in Cambridge."
