Subject: Index of campus-based publishing partnership

 

The Scholarly Communication Program, based at Columbia University Libraries/Information Services' Center for Digital Research and Scholarship, now offers an index of campus-based publishing partnerships on its Web site, http://scholcomm.columbia.edu. This index is a growing resource, allowing users to learn how libraries and presses are currently collaborating. For each initiative, you'll find a brief description, business and funding model information, links, and more. 

The index employs framework and data from "Campus-based publishing partnerships: A guide to critical issues" by Raym Crow, and is part of the Campus-based Publishing Resource Center organized by the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC), an international alliance of academic and research libraries working to correct imbalances in the scholarly publishing system. The Resource Center is maintained by an editorial board representing library and university press staff actively engaged in publishing partnerships.
