Open Access Monographs: Building Better Infrastructure - The Scholarly Kitchen

openacrs's bookmarks 2020-03-27

Summary:

Technology has the promise of improving the user’s reading experience in the digital age and we are currently wrestling with a variety of practical considerations in bringing that about. For more than a decade, the National Information Standards Organization and the Book Industry Study Group have sponsored an annual forum at the annual meeting of the American Library Association to examine common issues pertaining to digital technology and systems found across a spectrum of libraries. This year, the event examines issues of building and delivering ebooks to users, discussing interfaces, ensuring ebook accessibility, system interoperability, and (should you have missed the announcement) BISG’s recently released white paper on open access ebook usage. Just as the Digital Science Report concluded, the information community as a whole should be collaborating to bring a better user experience to practical fruition.
