SUMMARY:Open Access Monographs and Publishing Models: Collaborative Wa
 ys Forward
DESCRIPTION:In January 2015 the HEFCE report on Monographs and Open Ac
 cess was published based on research led by Geoffrey Crossick, Disti
 nguished Professor of Humanities at the School of Advanced Study, Univ
 ersity of London. The report found that: “There is no single dominan
 t emerging business model for supporting open-access publishing of mon
 ographs; a range of approaches will coexist for some time and it is un
 likely that any single model will emerge as dominant. Policies will th
 erefore need to be flexible.”\nEvent Abstract:   What is often forg
 otten is that, alongside transparency of public expenditure, the impet
 us for open access is the ethical and appropriate sharing of valuable 
 knowledge for the betterment of society.   The proposed panel seeks t
 o discuss the potential of the open access monograph format to contrib
 ute to this process of ethical knowledge dissemination, whilst highlig
 hting the challenges presently faced by the publishing industry to mak
 e this a viable and financially sustainable reality.   The discussion
  will involve a group of speakers who hold contrasting perspectives on
  how this transition to open access monograph publishing should be man
 aged and how it may support or disadvantage their particular professio
 nal sector and ethical goals.\n Ambitiously and in keeping with this y
 ear’s open access theme of collaboration, this panel seeks to encour
 age the development of collaborative thinking between various kinds of
  publishers and the academe, in order to promote the ethical sharing o
 f knowledge.\n1. Martin Eve, Senior Lecturer in Literature, Technology
