We invite proposals in English (up to 300 words) for 10-15 minute presentations addressing topics that align with one of the three session themes. Examples of such topics might include (but are by no means limited to): ● Reflecting on the outcomes of a specific library publishing program or project ● The emerging impact/role of library-published work in collection development ● Launching a small, open-access journal from within a library ● How a library publishing program or individual publication can achieve financial sustainability ● The role of the library in meeting scholars’ obligations to freely disseminate their work ● The role of the library in supporting innovation in digital scholarship/publishing ● Opportunities for collaboration between university libraries and university presses ● Case studies of existing projects We welcome submissions from around the globe and particularly those from outside of North America.
