OA Partnership Between the Press and the Library
An initial three year (2013-15) agreement to support the open dissemination (Gold OA – Creative Commons license) of selected monographs. Now succeeded by second agreement, 2015-18.
Key features:
• The Library now subsidizes four new titles per fiscal year
• The Library agrees to provide $10,000 per title, for a total of $40,000 per fiscal year.
• The Press agrees to provide the Library with an itemized production budget that includes other sources of pre-publication funding to determine the total of the subvention.

• This subvention is meant to cover the direct costs of production and support OA dissemination. Other sources of funding (e.g. the federal Awards to Scholarly Publishing Program) must be utilized for this library funding to be applicable.
• The agreement will directly support the publications in the ‘Law, Technology and Media’ collection. Books in other collections that address current socio-cultural, economic and political issues are also preferred.
• ONIX data feeds to vendors now include link to the free PDF; the print or the epub can still be purchased.
