New infrastructures for Open Access books: a platform and invitation

Judith Fathallah

The Community-led Open Publication Infrastructures for Monographs is a collaborative project bringing together an international range of researchers, universities, librarians, open access book publishers and infrastructure providers (www.copim.ac.uk). I present here the project of Work Package 2: to build and maintain a collective and platform required to promote, sustain and distribute open access academic book publishing. The Open Book Collective will be a consortium that supports a user-friendly, integrated platform to help stakeholders explore, discover, access and support OA books from a range of leading publishers and infrastructure providers searchable catalogue. Maximally readable, comprehensive metadata will be provided by Thoth. We aim to offer a choice of flexible subscription packages, through which patrons can choose to support individual publishers and schemes, or indeed the entire collective. Whilst our major stakeholders will be librarians and publishers, the catalogue and metadata functions will be freely available to all. We will also be providing space for OA publishers to display their current and forthcoming books and access library revenue streams that may have previously been unavailable to them. We have partnered with the group of publishers that form the ScholarLed collective, with whom we are piloting the platform, but are building with the aim of flexible expansion to include more publishers in time. We have also partnered with JISC and the DOAB, who are assisting in the management of revenue, curation and systems of preservation. This presentation introduces the work we have done so far and invites attendees to join us in our process of consultative outreach as we further develop the platform.

From toll roads to highways: How the OA Switchboard is building the infrastructure for an OA-driven scholarly communications landscape

Yvonne Campfens

DISCUSSION event - OA Switchboard is a mission-driven, practical solution that thrives on collaboration. We want the research ecosystem to work better for everyone, such that Open Access is supported as the predominant model of publication. The tool we provide is a central information exchange hub (connecting parties and systems, streamlining the neutral exchange of OA related publication-level information), that stakeholders operationalise in their workflows and systems. We are running it as an industry-collaborative initiative, and financial resources are limited. Yet, we're committed to a self-sustaining, not-for-profit, business model. This event will reflect on our journey from idea (2018) to being operational (2021). We'll present our principles and POSI self-assessment, cover tough choices and will share pragmatic solutions. We're happy to share our experiences and enter into discussion with the participants.

Finding Open Textbooks with Pressbooks Directory

John McLeod

Pressbooks Directory was first conceived of in conversation with users of the Pressbooks Authoring & Editing platform. Steel Wagstaff, educational product manager, asked users, “What can we do to help?”

They responded, “Help us share and discover OER.”

And so the Directory was born.

Today the Pressbooks Directory includes over 2500 publicly available books created by Pressbooks users. Join John McLeod as he walks participants through the many ways to find books that are available to adopt and adapt. He will show the great variety of subjects, demonstrate how to search for books with interactive elements, and explain how and by whom curated collections are created.

Pressbooks Directory is free for everyone to use and requires no sign in or account set up.

Single-source publishing with Open Source and InDesign

John Maxwell

Discussion of single-source publishing workflows built with open source tools, often with an XML or HTML content-management store at the centre, often tends to preclude the preferred traditional print output path of most trade publishers -- Adobe InDesign. It is entirely possible to integrate (semi-elegantly, even) InDesign into such an open source workflow by treating InDesign as an output path rather than the centre of the workflow (as trade publishers have been doing for the past 20 years). This allows one to have the advantages of a single-source workflow built on open source tools while still allowing your current InDesign book designers to get their mitts on the work and do their magic with it.

Open Journal Systems Open Source Metrics Mapping Community Open Data
Location of known journals using PKP’s Open Journal Systems

Saurabh Khanna, Jonas Raoni Soares da Silva, Alec Smecher, Juan Pablo Alperin, Jon Ball

Open Journal Systems (OJS) has a distributed user community, and it has always been hard to know who is using the software, where, and for what. Based on a PKP sub-project called the Beacon, we are publishing an open data set describing the known OJS user community, the number of journals they represent, and the nature of their work. One early result is that the journal publishing community appears to be significantly larger than we thought. This work will set the stage for future research into the global publishing community using OJS, OMP, and OPS.

What is a book? And, why do we still need them?

Hugh McGuire

Ever since I started working on the web in the world of books and publishing, back in 2005, I have been asked in many different ways: “But, is the ‘book’ still relevant?” That is, can books retain their power and place as core transmitters of knowledge, in the face of the unrelenting advance of media and other technologies? More specifically, is there a future world where textbooks still matter? In this talk I’ll discuss an encompassing definition of the book, one that takes into account not just text and digital media, but includes more exciting human interactions as well. I’ll propose—for debate!—a vision of the book that maintains its central place as a node of knowledge within our wider web of media, understanding, and human connections. Finally I’ll make the case that as we see continuing polarization of understanding of the world, explicitly growing more public and accessible human communities around books may offer a glimmer of hope for the future of knowledge.

New advances for Wikipedia integrated academic journals

Thomas Shafee

The relationship between Wikipedia and academic publishing is changing. In particular, WikiJournals are bringing together the scholarly rigour of academic publishing with the massive impact of Wikipedia and Wikidata. Participating journals publish a range of formats: from broad reviews copied fully into Wikipedia, to image galleries that get integrated throughout the encyclopedia, to stand-alone research and teaching articles.

What does this look like to an Academic? We're used to even top academic articles getting <10,000 views ever, whereas a Wikipedia article on the same topic can get that many each day. Getting both a peer reviewed, citable journal article, that's also integrated into Wikipedia to reach broader demographics like students, journalists and policymakers merges the best of both worlds.

What does this look like to a librarian? It's an interesting way to match quality assurance. It's also unusual to see journals that are free to both reader and author ('Diamond OA'). Article metadata is also integrated Wikidata - an exciting meta-database that's flexible, human- and machine-readable, and multilingual.

What does this look like to a Wikipedian? It's an effective was of drawing in subject-experts who would otherwise not have contributed to a Wikimedia project as authors, peer reviewers and editors. It's a way to generate new high-quality content as well as thoroughly audit existing content.

For those who came to last year's session (https://doi.org/10.26181/5ED388168AE4B) this seminar will cover new ground and avoid repetition, but for those who didn't, we'll still be introducing the necessary background. We'll look at new experiments in format, statistics on impacts so far, and what lessons can be applied to pother projects.

Quire: Getty’s Open-Source Digital Publishing Tool

Erin Cecele Dunigan, Greg Albers

Developed by Getty, Quire is a multiformat, digital publishing tool optimized for high-quality, visual publishing. It is designed to ensure that digital books are not only as beautiful and object-like as print books but are equally as enduring. Quire uses static site generation to ensure the longevity and sustainability of publication content. It also increases publication discoverability through its unique multiformat output capabilities. Quire was developed with a built-in understanding of high-quality scholarly publishing and best practices. Elements like high-resolution images, linkable footnotes, pop-up references, and page-level citations are baked into Quire's core code.

Originally developed as a solution to Getty's open access publishing needs, Quire quickly gained the attention of other organizations within the fields of digital humanities, arts, and academia. Quire is currently available for free use upon request. In Spring 2022, Quire will officially be launched as an open-source publishing tool, enabling others to leverage Getty's work and publish critical digital scholarship online, at a low cost, and with little ongoing maintenance.

Join the Quire team for a 30-minute overview of its features, functionality, and vibrant community of users. A 15-minute Q&A will follow the presentation. Total session time : 45mins

Come and hear about exciting new developments in the work of ScholarLed, a consortium of five (soon to be more!) mission-driven, academic-led open access book publishers formed in 2018. Individually we comprise Mattering Press, meson press, Open Book Publishers, Open Humanities Press, and punctum books, and collectively we’re developing powerful, practical ways for scholar-led OA book publishers to grow and flourish. We have recently become a not-for-profit foundation based in the Netherlands (Stichting) and we are looking for new members! Come and find out more about ScholarLed, what we’re trying to achieve, and how you can join us.

pagedown: Scientific and Analytical Reports with Paged.js

Romain Lesur

Data analysts and data scientists are used to work with literate programming tools like R Markdown or Jupyter notebooks. In order to produce paginated documents (PDF), the usual technical stack relies on LaTeX. The pagedown package brings Paged.js in the R Markdown ecosystem and allows data analysts to paginate and customise their documents using web technologies (web2print). In this session, we will zoom on some achievements in the pagedown community like implementing a corporate design or a scientific journal article.

Quartz OA: Just Open Access

Evgeniya Lupova-Henry & Ámbar Tenorio-Fornés
Quartz OA is building a platform cooperative bringing together independent open access academic publishers and a community of scholars and institutions willing to provide them with financial and in-kind support. Our goal is to make open access academic publishing fairer and more sustainable and help the academic community retain the value it generates. Ultimately, our goal is to facilitate the creation of an ecosystem where all parties benefit from being part of it:

Libraries, institutions, and funders will be able to automatically channel funds to those open access journals that are relevant to their researchers, optimizing their open access strategy and minimising administrative burden.

Individual academics will be able to contribute to the sustainability of independent open access publishing initiatives and get recognition for their contributions.

Trusted independent journals and publishers will be able to access additional streams of funding, as well as a network of scholars willing to contribute to fair open access initiatives by providing services (such as peer review, language support and even copyediting) or by participating in crowdfunding campaigns.

To enable this vision, we are building upon the cutting-edge technologies and approaches to organisation, such as web monetization technology and the platform cooperative framework. In this session, we will present Quartz OA and introduce the concept of platform coops and their potential for the transformation of the academic publishing field. We will also invite the participants to a conversation about fairness, economic sustainability and independence of open access publishing. Looking forward to an insightful discussion!

Opening Old Books

Juliana Castro, Jessi Haley, Eric Hellman, and Jessamyn West

There are tens of thousands of books in the public domain, with more entering it each year. Project Gutenberg alone hosts more than 60,000 texts spanning centuries, continents, and languages of origin. This unprecedented and ever-expanding access to the literature of the past raises exciting possibilities and questions for readers, educators, and libraries all over the world. Books by writers of color, women, queer authors—many of which saw high readership when published but were not kept alive in the public consciousness by gatekeepers —are now available to anyone with interest and an internet connection. What are the implications of this on our understanding of how writing and reading shapes communities? How can open access tools reinvigorate and reshape the literary canon? And how might we make the most of these possibilities and connect readers to old words using new technologies?

DocMaps: What are they and how can I benefit from using them?

Gabriel Stein, Paul Shannon, Ted Roeder, Thomas Lemberger, Richard Severs

Doc Maps are a community-driven framework for describing the processes used to create documents in a structured manner. Over the last few months, four open science organizations — eLife/Sciety, EMBO, Cold Spring Harbor Lab (CSHL) Press, and Knowledge Futures — have been piloting using DocMaps to describe emerging preprint evaluation models pioneered by groups like the Novel Coronavirus Research Compendium (NCRC), EMBO Press, Review Commons, eLife, and the MIT Press’s Rapid Reviews: COVID-19 (RR:C19) journal. DocMaps will provide machine-readable data and context about how community groups and peer review platforms are evaluating preprints, which will be aggregated by eLife's Sciety and EMBO's EEB platforms and consumed and displayed on CSHL's medrxiv and biorxiv preprint servers.

During the session, we'll start by describe the philosophy and rational of DocMaps and show working examples of the in-progress implementation. Then we'll turn the agenda over to you. We're ready to break out into groups to provide guidance for publishers who want to add DocMaps to their works, dive deep into implementation with tools/platform developers, discuss potential use-cases for researchers, brainstorm reader-facing visualizations, and whatever else you're interested in.

Collaboration data science inclusion open publishing
Good Practices for Collaboration (The Turing Way)

Emma Karoune, Rachael Ainsworth, Esther Plomp

Data science and research is defined by its interdisciplinarity. Our work can only reach its highest potential if there are diverse teams of people involved in designing and delivering the research or products. Effective methods of collaboration are crucial to the success and sustainability of research projects and communities. The Turing Way is an open-source, community-led book project that aims to bring together diverse contributors and collaborators to share resources and practices that make data science reproducible, ethical and inclusive. The project is developed and maintained on an online project repository (https://github.com/alan-turing-institute/the-turing-way) and invites contributions to its five guides, including the Guide for Collaboration. We believe that to make our project widely beneficial and comprehensive we need to collaborate with individuals and groups with diverse skills, backgrounds, lived experiences and domain knowledge. Our community members currently include over 270 contributors on GitHub, as well as thousands of users worldwide who write, read, review, enhance and promote best practices in data science and research (in academia, industry, open communities and public sector).

In this interactive session, we will introduce the Guide for Collaboration to discuss good practices for effective and inclusive collaboration. We will demonstrate The Turing Way guides to prompt discussions on developing inclusive engagement pathways and setting Community-led projects that are open for contributions from people with diverse skills. Participants will join breakout rooms to discuss best practices and challenges in collaboration. Participants will leave this session having discovered skills around reviewing team member’s contributions, remote working, running inclusive events/meetings, defining explicit expectations, and participatory co-creation.

Open Source Publishing Tools in Wikidata

Anne Britton

There are many tools and systems that enable open publishing. Given its evolving and sometimes fragmented nature, this domain can be challenging to identify, track, and study.

Wikidata, one of the sister projects of Wikipedia, may offer a solution. Wikidata is editable by anyone, multilingual, and licensed to the public domain. It could serve as an inclusive, dynamic, collectively curated registry of basic facts about open publishing tools.

Join us for a demonstration and discussion. We will explore questions such as: (1) Which digital tools do you use for publishing-related activities? (2) Does Wikidata accurately describe your use of a particular tool? (3) Does Wikidata accurately describe the technology of a particular tool?

This session is inspired by studies such as the 2019 "Mind the Gap: A Landscape Analysis of Open Source Publishing Tools and Platforms" by John Maxwell et al. (mindthegap.pubpub.org).

open access open peer review micropublication
Experimental Results: an innovative, open access, open peer-review journal for short research reports from all STM disciplines

Alison Paskins and Charlotte Hegley

Experimental Results (published by Cambridge University Press) is an open access journal for findings that disclose the incremental steps underlying experimental research across Science, Technology and Medicine. The journal provides authors with an innovative outlet to rapidly publish openly peer-reviewed chunks of sound research findings. Many of these findings have remained hidden due to the traditional scholarly communication process by which only a select group of experiments are chosen to make up the narrative of a single paper. This talk will examine Experimental Results from a publisher, editor and author's perspective - looking at the journal's mission and vision, and running through an anatomy of a paper.

OAeBU Effort Update: Building a Global Data Trust for OA eBook Usage Data

Christina Drummond, Kevin Hawkins

Trusted, holistic views of OA eBook usage is necessary for both reporting and analytics. Since 2015, a global network of OA-focused publishers, platforms, services, scholars and libraries have worked through the OA eBook Usage Data Trust to study the complex challenges facing the aggregation and benchmarking of OA eBook usage metrics across open and proprietary data sources.

The OA eBook Usage (OAeBU) Data Trust is now transitioning from an academic research project into a hosted program staffed by a Secretariat and governed by diverse stakeholders hailing from across scholarly communications. Join us in this session to learn about: 1) our findings related to the sharing, aggregation, and reuse of OA eBook usage data across the OA publishing supply chain, 2) how the OAeBU Data Trust as a developing International Data Space (IDS) for OA usage data aims to make the aggregation and benchmarking of OA eBook usage data simpler through economies of scale and streamlined data stewardship, and 3) the reasons why the OAeBU Data Trust will provision aggregate and benchmarking data but not provide data dashboards or visualizations.

Dutch Royal Library and the Dutch National Archive: “With this project we challenge you to tell us your dreams. What are the things you would like to do with documents from our collections? We have huge physical collections, which are goldmines for people who are interested in history or language development. But most of these collections are based on paper, in cellars, difficult to access” We tried to investigate together with the Dutch Royal Library and the Dutch National Archive if Web Publications could be used as a format for digitized documents. We created a demonstrator to test different type of documents and requested features from interviews with scientists and other stake holders.
