Our break out session will build on the UKSG Insights article “The view from Salford: perspectives on scholarly communications from a research-informed university” (http://doi.org/10.1629/uksg.511). Published in May 2020, this opinion piece received a significant amount of interest online and has had nearly 1500 views and downloads.

We will demonstrate the analysis model developed by Salford to evaluate transformative agreements and our framework for engaging with researchers. Financial outlay must contribute towards our goal of an open, equitable, sustainable and scholar led research environment and serve the needs of Salford, both in research terms and value for money. This interactive session will also provide other institutions the opportunity to share their experiences of assessing transformative agreements.

The session will be co delivered by Wendy Taylor (Scholarly Communications Librarian) and Helen Monagle (Electronic Resources Manager) who will discuss how our agile Collections and Research teams are working together to share knowledge and expertise and how our size and structure enables us to work flexibly and creatively.

Academic libraries are facing tough choices. You’re not only required to do more with less – less budget, time and resources – you’re also managing the constantly changing demands of faculty, students and researchers in a very uncertain environment. As the necessity for online resources soars in support of remote learning, academic libraries are under pressure. That’s why many are finding renewed value in multi-format, multi-disciplinary subscriptions.

The dissemination of, and access to research has never been more vital. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen significant growth in the submission and readership of content.

Springer Nature - Publishing in the Pandemic

At Taylor & Francis, we want an open and equitable research communications ecosystem which protects, amplifies, and democratizes trusted knowledge. We believe open research is the most efficient and impactful way to advance research and share knowledge that enriches lives. In order to achieve this vision, we are challenging thinking about publishing and exploring how it might work differently. In this presentation we present two recently launched initiatives that really shift the boundaries of book publishing: Open Books Data Sharing Policy and Open Plus Books.
