Abstract

As the scholarly publishing industry pursues a shift from pay-to-read to pay-to-publish, many new funding models have emerged. Case study briefs describing a dozen different initiatives will be provided as raw material, and attendees will leave with a better sense of the landscape after exercises in grouping, critiquing, and applying them. This highly-interactive active learning session will apply a cooperative learning approach, enabling attendees to engage with the landscape by:

  • Reviewing specific, real-life OA journal and book initiatives, synthesizing them into broader categories
  • Analyzing one of the broader categories using a strengths & weaknesses-based framework
  • Choosing a case study or model for their local context: Why that model? What would make it successful in your library or organization? What next steps would you build into an action plan to advance it?

Come join the fun as we work together to gain a better understanding of this area of rapid change in the scholarly communication landscape.
