Engage with PALOMERA via the OABN! Launch event March 28, 2023, 4pm (CEST) | Open Access Books Network

The Open Access Books Network (OABN) is working with the PALOMERA project, a two-year initiative funded by HORIZON Europe that seeks to investigate why so few Open Access (OA) funder policies include OA books, and to provide actionable recommendations to change this. We will be hosting a PALOMERA Series of events that will provide a forum for anyone interested in open access book publishing to: engage with PALOMERA via the OABN,  contribute your knowledge and expertise as the project progresses,  offer feedback to help shape PALOMERA’s outputs and recommendations.  We want to gather a broad group of representatives from different stakeholders in open access book publishing, as we did for our Voices from the OA Book Community workshop series in 2021, and enable you to contribute to the PALOMERA project via the PALOMERA Series. Launch event We will host a launch event on Tuesday 28 March at 3pm BST / 4pm CEST where you will hear from some of the project’s leaders, including Niels Stern (OAPEN/DOAB) and Ursula Rabar (OPERAS/OAeBU). You will have the opportunity to ask questions about the project and to let us know the best ways for you to engage with PALOMERA. The event will also be recorded. Sign up for the launch event: it’s free and everyone is welcome!  Please also share the link with anyone who might be interested.
