"The Countries of OAWorld 2011-2015 should be ready in July, barring new problems. It includes a briefer version of each region chapter, a four-page (or sometimes three-page) chapter for each country with at least ten DOAJ listed journals that aren’t in APCLand, and for most regions a chapter briefly summarizing journals for each country with fewer than ten OAWorld journals.

I believe there will be 83 chapters in the book. I find the country stories fascinating—and you pretty much get to write the stories yourself from the tables and graphs, because I’m providing very little commentary. The book’s likely to be a little over 300 pages, which may mean an $8 paperback; the PDF will once again be free. (As I write this, I’m on the 31st chapter, Lithuania.)"
