INTRODUCTION

Sarah K. Lippincott and Katherine Skinner

We are delighted to introduce the second edition of the Library Publishing Directory, featuring 124 library publishers from around the world. The volume of entries confirms that research libraries worldwide are making a strategic commitment to providing publishing services, both on and beyond their campuses. Collectively, the Directory entries show the range of emerging library publishing models and the diverse partnerships represented therein—with scholars, university presses, trade publishers, and many other groups in the extended academic publishing field. We hope that this Directory facilitates knowledge sharing and collaboration between library publishers and increases awareness of this expanding field.

Last year’s Directory has been downloaded over a thousand times since its publication by a diverse international audience, demonstrating broad interest in the development of this publishing subfield. The interactive, web-based Directory (http://atom.lib.byu.edu/lpc/) released in the summer of 2014, now provides additional ways to understand the data collected across library publishers. We hope that our 2015 volume is used by libraries and other publishing stakeholders to locate their peers, understand the range of practices underway across the field, and to inspire further action to support the needs of the scholarly communities they support.

As we describe in more detail below, this year’s edition affirms many of the themes that surfaced in the first Directory last year. We find the focus placed by these library publishers on campus-based partnerships with students, faculty, and presses particularly striking. The programs represented in this Directory also indicate that library publishing retains a strong preference for open access publication and an emphasis on providing services and innovations that apply the unique skill sets of librarians.

The Library Publishing Directory is produced by the Library Publishing Coalition (LPC), a growing community of 60+ research libraries that is committed to advancing the field of library publishing. The LPC ’s Directory Committee maintains the Directory and ensures that all the print and digital versions are useful, current, and accurate. Holly Mercer (University of Tennessee) chaired this year’s committee and Katherine Purple (Purdue University) coordinated production of the Directory. Committee members Jane Morris (Boston College), Elizabeth Smart (Brigham Young University), Stephanie Davis-Kahl (Illinois Wesleyan University), Beth Turtle (Kansas State University), Shan Sutton (Oregon State University), Linda Friend (Penn State University), Ann Lally (University of Washington), and Joshua Neds-Fox (Wayne State University), contributed significant time and effort—from building and disseminating the library publishing questionnaire to producing the finished product.

The Directory Committee distributed the questionnaire that serves as the basis for this publication to major library e-mail lists and social media channels in July 2014. We primarily targeted libraries in the United States and Canada, but also received numerous submissions from around the world, including Australia, the United Kingdom, South Africa, Sweden, and Germany.

LIBRARY PUBLISHING LANDSCAPE

The entries in this guide highlight the diverse range of activities that fall under the broad label of library publishing. The data reported herein paint a vivid picture of a thriving library publishing environment. While the details vary in each entry, a number of themes emerge across the represented programs.

Above all, the data reflect libraries’ deep commitment to supporting their campus stakeholders. Nearly all of the respondents partner with campus departments or programs (91%) and individual faculty (90%). Sixty-eight percent also work with graduate students and over half partner with undergraduates. Notably, 28% collaborate with a university press, either on or off campus. Over half of respondents also listed at least one non-campus partner, such as scholarly societies, non-profit organizations, library consortia, and research institutes.

The publication counts also reflect a strong focus on the campus community. Three-quarters of respondents publish journals that are edited or led by faculty on their campuses. Libraries published a total of 432 faculty-driven, campus-based journal titles during the period covered by the questionnaire. Nearly all of these titles (97%) are open access (freely available online). Seventy-one percent of respondents published at least one journal of student research (graduate or undergraduate). Libraries published 214 campus-based student-driven journal titles in 2013-2014. Ninety-four percent of these titles are open access.

Slightly over half of respondents also produce journal titles on behalf of off-campus groups. The libraries listed herein published 195 journal titles under contract/MOU for external groups (such as faculty from other institutions, scholarly societies, or research institutes). Journals produced under contract were more likely to be paid/subscription access—only 57% of these titles are open access. These journals are largely peer-reviewed scholarship. In fact, among respondents who publish journals, the majority (55%) reported that all of their journals are peer-reviewed.

While journals remain the most prominent publication form, a full 56% percent of libraries reported that they published at least one monograph in 2013-2014. Another 47% published at least one textbook. Over half of respondents also publish technical/research reports, faculty and/or conference papers and proceedings, ETDs, and undergraduate capstones/honors theses.

Though library publishers favor open access publication, their business models often look very different from those used by other open access publishers. For example, only 10% of responding libraries reported that their journals charge author fees. Instead, library publishing services are predominantly supported by the library’s operating budget. Over half (52%) of libraries reported the library’s operating budget as their sole source of funding, and 88% of respondents receive at least some of their funding from the library’s operating budget. Other sources of funding include the library materials budget, non-library campus funds, grants, and sales revenue.

Library publishing services tend to be compact operations, with responding libraries reporting a range of .15 to 17 FTE (and an average of 1.8 FTE) in professional staff directly supporting publishing activities. Approximately half of these libraries reported that they also employ paraprofessional staff in their publishing programs. Nineteen percent of these libraries reported that they rely on graduate student labor and a quarter employ undergraduate student workers.

Half of respondents reported that their publishing activities are centralized in one library unit, while the remainder reported that services are spread across various units in the library or around campus. Library publishing activities are housed under a range of library units, including Digital Scholarship, Digital Initiatives, Scholarly Communications, and Collections.

Though library publishing often emphasizes lightweight workflows, library publishers provide a broad range of editorial, production, and technical services. The majority of respondents reported that they provide metadata assignment or support (80%), author copyright advisory (78%), digitization (76%), training (75%), hosting supplemental content (65%), analytics (61%), cataloging (58%), and general outreach (53%). Fewer than half offer DOI assignment/allocation of identifiers (45%), ISSN registry (45%), audio/video streaming (44%), marketing (41%), graphic design for print or web (39%), other author advisory (38%), dataset management (34%), and peer review management (25%). Fewer than 25% of respondents provide contract/license preparation, ISBN registry, copy-editing, notification of A&I sources, open URL support, print-on-demand, typesetting, image services, business model development, budget preparation, compiling indexes and/or TOCs, data visualization, and applying for Cataloging in Publication Data.

As a fundamental service, library publishers maintain, support, and in some cases build a publishing platform. Respondents use a variety of open source, commercial, and locally built technologies, including OJS (43%) and bepress (41%), followed by DSpace (29%), locally developed software (23%), WordPress (23%), CONTENTdm (21%), Fedora (15%), and OCS, EPrints, Islandora, Hydra, OMS, Scalar, and DPubS (each with less than 10%). Many libraries employ multiple platforms and technologies to support different aspects of the publishing process or to accommodate different types of publications.

As the library publishers featured here reflect on their future plans, many report that they expect to grow and formalize their services. Expanding and enhancing data management services featured prominently in libraries’ plans for the future, as did adding new journal and monograph titles and introducing new services for authors and editors.

The addition of over a dozen new entries in this year’s Directory confirms the growth and vitality of this field and the ongoing commitment of libraries to support their communities through providing innovative, sustainable publishing services. We look forward to continuing to document the maturation of this field in the coming years.

READING AN ENTRY:
SOME “HEALTH WARNINGS”

When we published the first Library Publishing Directory, we asked readers to bear with the minor inconsistencies that appear across entries. This year, we have again aimed to produce a directory that is readable and cohesive, but it should come as no surprise that community is still distilling shared definitions and terminology and that there is an ongoing need for the LPC to refine our approach to collecting the data that underlies this Directory.

Labeling and categorizing the diverse set of “library publishing” activities is no easy feat; nor is setting boundaries around funding streams, staffing, and services that bear specifically on library publishing activities. We have edited each entry sparingly to allow each library room to clarify or explain their responses as they saw fit.

The questionnaire we use to collect data for the Directory was distributed to major library e-mail lists and forums in the United States and Canada. Respondents were instructed to base their answers on the last twelve months of their library activity, a period covering roughly July 2013 to July 2014.

In some cases, questions in the questionnaire on which the entries are based still need to be clarified in order to ensure that we collect consistent data. For instance, we noted inconsistencies in the way that institutions report the numbers of publications they produce. The questionnaire instructs respondents to report the number of publications produced or made available within the last twelve months. Some institutions reported the numbers that were made available for the first time within the last twelve months while others reported cumulative numbers of publications as of the date they completed the survey. Readers will also notice that this inconsistency led to some blank cells in the tables reporting publication numbers.

Finally, readers will notice the presence of “seals” next to the title of some entries. These acknowledge the support of our Library Publishing Coalition Members and our Founding Institutions, who each provided $5,000 a year for two-years to seed fund the organization. To recognize their exceptional contributions, we include profiles of specific publications that Founding Institutions have nominated. These also give a practical sense of the wide range of types of publications produced.

We look forward to continuing to produce and improve the Directory with the input and participation of this vibrant community.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: We hope to explore (with faculty in the disciplines) alternatives to closed access publishing systems.

Year publishing activities began: 2012

Organization: We’re so small (6 librarians, one of whom is also the college archivist) that we wear many hats, including this one. If we had to characterize it in a word, it would be “anarchist.”

Funding sources (%): library materials budget (100)

PUBLISHING ACTIVITIES

Media formats: text; images

Percentage of journals that are peer reviewed: 0

Internal partners: individual faculty

External partners: Oberlin Group; we also kick in some support for an OA LIS journal

Publishing platform(s): PressBooks

Digital preservation strategy: in-house

Additional services: cataloging

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Additional information: Because we’re so small, and because two of six librarians are on leave without replacements, not much will be happinging in the coming academic year other than wheatever the Oberlin Group decides to do. We hope we will do more in coming years. We expect to do more digital humanities projects that will be public in the next few years.

Plans for expansion/future directions: We are among Oberlin Group libraries investigating the feasibility of collectively launching or lending significant support to a liberal arts press. So far, we have some research to share that has been quite interesting (available at leverinitiative.wordpress.com). We also are planning to set aside a percentage of our acquisitions budget annually to devote to OA support. At the moment it’s a very tiny percentage, but we hope it is a way to be intentional about our commitment to sharing knowledge with the world.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: The University Libraries offer a growing suite of publishing services in response to the needs of faculty, students, and staff. The Libraries provide an online platform for journal publishing (OJS) and the opportunity to produce innovative online collections and e-books based in its Digital Repository Service. Through the DRS, the Libraries also provide open access to the university’s electronic theses and dissertations, scholarly research output, and university-produced objects. The Libraries recently took over managing the university’s partnership with the University Press of New England; in early 2015, Northeastern will cease active production of new monographs with UPNE and transition to a distribution-only relationship. An expanded publishing program is currently under development, with year one of a three-year plan beginning in fall 2014.

Plans for expansion/future directions: The Libraries plan to formalize its current publishing services into a named publishing program in the 2014-2015 academic year. As part of this new program, it will continue the publishing activities already underway, as well as offering a range of new services over a three-year period. In year one (beginning fall 2014), the publishing program will offer expanded journal publishing services through OJS; work with UPNE to create open access digital editions of out-of-print Northeastern University Press titles; and conduct an environmental scan of additional needs for publishing services on campus. We also plan to convene an advisory board.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: Oregon State University Libraries’ publishing activities are primarily focused on the dissemination of scholarship produced by OSU faculty and students. This is achieved largely through the institutional repository ScholarsArchive@OSU, which includes material such as electronic theses and dissertations, agricultural extension reports, conference proceedings, and faculty datasets. OSU Libraries also hosts open access journals that include articles by OSU faculty. The Libraries’ Center for Digital Scholarship and Services digitizes selected out-of-print OSU Press publications, and provides open access to excerpts from Press books and supplementary materials such as maps and datasets. OSU Libraries also collaborates with OSU Press and OSU Extended Campus to publish open textbooks by OSU faculty. Other publishing activities involve the development of online resources that present the unique holdings of OSU Libraries, such as the Oregon Hops and Brewing Archives, the Linus and Ava Helen Pauling Papers, and related archival collections in the History of Science.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Additional information: It should be noted that while the OSU Press is part of the OSU Libraries organization, the Press’s publishing program, which results in the publication of approximately twenty-five books per year on the Pacific Northwest, has mostly operated independently from the Libraries’ publishing activities. Therefore, the descriptions of “library publishing” have not included the Press’s current print publishing output. The publishing programs of the Libraries and Press, however, are becoming increasingly integrated.

Plans for expansion/future directions: Our plans for the near future focus largely on open textbooks, digital humanities, linking datasets to published articles, and completing the retrospective digitization of all OSU theses and dissertations for dissemination through our institutional repository. The OSU Libraries’ Gray Family Chair for Innovative Library Services is developing a strategic vision for digital publishing with an emphasis on platforms that integrate the publishing activities of the Libraries and Press.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: Purdue Scholarly Publishing Services focuses on supporting the publication efforts of various centers and departments within the Purdue system. The primary publishing platform used is Purdue e-Pubs (www.purdue.edu/epubs), and the majority of products created are openly accessible, free of charge, to readers. Open access is made possible by the financial support of partners, foundations, and Purdue University Libraries. Major initiatives include the production of the Journal of Purdue Undergraduate Research, the publication of technical reports on behalf of the Joint Transportation Research Program (JTRP), and the project management of HABRI Central, a major bibliographic reference database for researchers in the area of human-animal bond studies, produced in partnership with the Purdue College of Veterinary Medicine. Purdue Scholarly Publishing Services and Purdue University Press, which publishes more formal books and journals, together constitute the publishing division of Purdue Libraries. Our diverse publishing activities are supported by a single group of staff members with assistance from undergraduate and graduate students. By harnessing the skills of both librarians and publishers, and leveraging a common infrastructure, we believe we can better serve the needs of scholars in the digital age and enhance the impact of Purdue scholarship by developing information products aligned with the University’s strengths.

Website: scholarlycommunication.library.tamu.edu

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: Digital technologies are prompting significant change and opportunities in scholarly communications, including the roles of commercial publishers, copyright, fair use, rankings of journals, and peer review. This presents exciting opportunities for research libraries to work with faculty to influence and promote positive change in the access to scholarly research, author/faculty rights, decreased costs, and enhanced use of the scholarly corpus through data/textual manipulation and analysis. The Office of Scholarly Communication serves TAMU scholars through the provision of modern, web-based publishing and repository services. We seek to (i) strengthen scholarly communications, open access, and the creation and dissemination of knowledge, (ii) advance access to TAMU scholarship represented by journal articles, conference proceedings, technical reports, research data, educational resources, and digitized special collections through the Texas A&M Digital Repository, and (iii) identify trends and opportunities in scholarly communications and open access. We seek to bring about systemic change on campus through the design of coordinated and innovative programs that rely on an effective partnership with the campus and libraries communities and use an iterative design process that draws from the best practices of program design and organizational change frameworks.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: The University of Kentucky (UK) Libraries launched an institutional repository (UKnowledge: uknowledge.uky.edu) in late 2010 to champion the integration and transformation of scholarly communication within the UK community. The initiative sought to improve students’, faculty members’, and researchers’ access to appropriate resources for maximizing the dissemination of their research and scholarship in an open and digital environment. A crucial component of UKnowledge is providing publishing services to broadly disseminate scholarship created or sponsored by the UK community. We provide a flexible platform to publish a variety of scholarly content and to expand the discoverability of the published works. Using state-of-the-art technologies, we are able to offer campus constituents sought-after services in different stages of the scholarly communication lifecycle to help them thrive and succeed. We also inform them of scholarly communication issues, such as open access, author rights, and the economics of journal publishing. Providing library publishing services is one avenue through which we are making significant contributions to the fulfillment of UK’s mission.

Year publishing activities began: 2010

We will pursue additional opportunities to collaborate with various campus units in support of undergraduate research as we celebrate UK students’ academic achievements by making them visible and accessible worldwide. We will also assist UK-based print journals to create their online presence and extend their reach beyond academia. Through partnerships with UK researchers, we will explore data publishing. Last but not least, we will continue to advocate for open access and open licensing as well as to inform the UK community of new scholarly communication practices, such as alternative metrics, open peer review, and researcher identity management. We look forward to UKnowledge being the primary online publishing avenue for UK-based research and scholarship.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Additional information: Michigan Publishing includes both the University of Michigan Library’s library-based publishing operations as well as the activities of the University of Michigan Press, which is an administrative unit of the library under the umbrella of Michigan Publishing. As such, it is difficult to separate the Press’s activities from those of the library, and therefore, while our answers might adhere to the guidelines for this survey, they do not necessarily reflect our organization and its output in an accurate way.

Plans for expansion/future directions: In the coming years, we will execute further integration of our library and university press operations and expand our publishing services program targeted to meet the needs of our campus community.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: The Open Scholarship & Publishing Services Department is a new and growing department that currently consists of two closely cooperating units: The Publishing Services unit provides services and infrastructure that supports the creation, production, and dissemination of the University’s faculty- and instructor-produced digital scholarship. The Copyright Services unit provides education and consultation services on copyright, licensing, and other intellectual property issues for the campus community. The major objectives for the department are to conceptualize, implement, and promote sustainable services for content creation and publishing for scholarly and creative works for the campus community; integrate and anchor copyright services within the new department by maintaining and expanding current education, outreach, and consultation services; and finally, anchoring and operationalizing scholarly communications activities within the department. The establishment of the new department is intended to anchor, sustain, and resource interconnected libraries activities while bringing purposeful intra-connection with other libraries activities and strategic initiatives that intersect with the work of the department.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: The Leddy Library supports the dissemination of new scholarship by undergraduates, graduates, faculty, and staff at the University of Windsor in a variety of forms. Through the Scholarship at UWindsor repository, we are able to support the dissemination of theses and dissertations that provide increased visibility to the work of our graduate students. We also use the repository to support conferences run on our campus by helping the organizers manage the submission, workflow, and publication process. As longstanding supporters of Open Journal Systems, the library helps to publish and maintain several journals run from our campus. We have also launched our first open access monograph series, Windsor Studies in Argumentation, with the Open Monograph Press software. Providing support for open access is a central concern in all of our publishing endeavors. We seek to educate our users about the value of open access and to encourage various forms of open access publication.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: Virginia Tech’s Libraries are putting renewed emphasis on publishing, though we have hosted open access ejournals since 1989 and ETDs since 1996. We began offering Open Journal Systems in 2012 and Open Conference Systems in 2013. We are interested in greatly expanding publishing services to support the products of research and scholarship, including data visualization, interactive “books,” and Open Education Resources. We are open to exploring faculty interests in publishing research and scholarship that is more than paper online, such as e-textbooks with interactive components and multimedia works. All collaborations result in sustainable publications that are included in our preservation strategy with the MetaArchive Cooperative. Like most library services, our publishing support is provided without charge.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: ANU E Press, as it was originally known, was established in 2003 to explore and enable new modes of scholarly publishing. Taking advantage of new information and communication technologies to make available the intellectual output of the ANU academic community, ANU E Press was Australia’s first primarily electronic academic publisher. After ten years of production, in early 2014 ANU E Press changed its name to ANU Press to reflect the changes the publication industry had seen since 2003. Now that digital publication has become the norm across publishing, the Press no longer needs to set itself apart as a digital publisher, and so has taken the traditional academic publishing name of ANU Press. The primary focus of ANU Press is the electronic production of scholarly works. All works are also available for purchase through a print-on-demand (POD) service. ANU Press produces fully peer-reviewed research publications and is recognized by DIISRTE as a commercial publisher, enabling ANU Press authors to gain full recognition under the Higher Education Research Data Collection scheme.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: The library provides open access-oriented publishing services to researchers, including Goettingen University Press, repositories for theses, and peer-reviewed publications. In addition, a central Open Access Fund has been established, which covers article processing charges and monitors the uptake of gold open access at the University. These service areas are combined with strategic involvement in national and international initiatives, such as the Confederation of Open Access Repositories (COAR) and OpenAIRE, the European-wide open access infrastructure for publications. These institutional activities work in both directions; they are crucial for enhancing local services and vice versa feed experiences and lessons learned into international collaborations.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Mission statement: The Monash University Research Repository provides a place for the Monash research community to store and manage digital research data and related publications. The repository aims to promote Monash research by making it discoverable and accessible online for the worldwide research community. The repository contains accepted versions of published works like books, book chapters, journal articles, and conference papers. Non-published manuscripts and grey literature like theses, technical reports, working and discussion papers, and conference posters are collected. Research data holdings, datasets, image collections, audio, and video files are also included in the repository.

Year publishing activities began: 2006

Organization: services are distributed across several campuses

Additional services: cataloging; metadata; DOI assignment/allocation of identifiers; hosting supplemental content

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Additional information: Aside from publishing ETDs, scholarly publishing at Monash Research Repository is a legacy activity to support some journals whose business model did not fit the requirements of an earlier iteration of Monash University Publishing. There were five titles to begin with but this has reduced to two as some titles folded up or migrated to other institutions or scholarly publishers. Monash University Publishing is a separate entity from the library and focuses on publishing quality monographs for sale.

Plans for expansion/future directions: Planning new software to replace existing repository software to allow easier self-submission of research data as primary focus of the library’s efforts. Publications will be handed back to the university research office, and the new system will integrate with a new CRIS system to allow automated dissemination of publication data. Theses publication will be automated within the Graduate School for the collection of digital-only theses manuscripts and published automatically into the new library system.

It is a publicly financed operation with its main goal to provide public access to scientific results in multiple formats, both nationally and internationally. The Press provides access to electronic journals and books free of charge, and to printed books at low prices. We aim to make journals and books affordable, and to give them the widest possible dissemination so that researchers around the world can find and access the information they need without barriers.

The idea is to simplify the publishing process. In conjunction with the electronic posting, the doctoral students may choose to get help with the production, distribution and marketing of their dissertations. We will also have a publishing service for “gray literature,” which will offer a limited support similar to that of the press.
