Summary:

"We recently welcomed Elsevier  as an OASPA member in the Publisher category. Elsevier joins almost 200 OASPA members. We asked  Laura Hassink, Managing Director for STM Journals, a few questions so we could learn more about Elsevier and its connection to open scholarship and the decision to become an OASPA member.... Why did you decide to join OASPA and what do you hope to get out of your OASPA membership? Providing authors with opportunities to publish open access has been a strong focus of ours since 2009, with the launch of our first open access title, and demonstrated by the rapid expansion of our OA portfolio with on average 100 new OA titles per year over the past 3 years. More broadly, we have developed and implemented a range of initiatives to support Open Science. Our focus on Open Science means that we have often engaged with or even founded collaborative, cross-sector groups to support our goals on openness and transparency. As a membership community supporting and representing open access publishers, we therefore feel that OASPA is an ideal association with which to engage and collaborate. We are looking forward to learning from OASPA’s membership base and contributing to the ongoing discussions and debate about the fast-evolving Open Science landscape.   What are the short and medium-term priorities for your publication in relation to open scholarship?  Our goal is to ensure that our work in Open Science supports a more transparent, inclusive and collaborative world of research...."
