Open Access/Open Science has become integral to the Karger strategy as we help stakeholders with their OA ambitions and strive toward a sustainable OA transition. But the industry’s transformation to more openness faces obstacles. We examine some of these challenging hurdles - and some potential solutions.

Karger Publishers - Uncomfortable Questions about Open Access

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. 

Find out how you can work with ProQuest to maximize your budget and drive better research, teaching and learning outcomes, even while facing an uncertain future.

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. 

As a responsible publisher, we continue to adapt and accelerate our publishing output to ensure the latest research, evidence and data is as discoverable as possible. 

This poster session explores what this looked like in the UK, and within a global context.

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.
