SUMMARY:The Impact of Open Access Models: Finding Stable, Sustainable 
 and Scalable Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Open access (OA) to scholarly research has been a policy m
 ove embraced by governments, libraries, publishers and the global rese
 arch community. Opinions, though, run strong on the issue of which fin
 ancial models will foster OA’s long-term viability in concert with t
 raditional scholarly publishing. Attitudes, for example, toward articl
 e processing charges vary by community; key stakeholder roles are shif
 ting; and, in the Humanities and Social Sciences, OA monographs' diffe
 rent format requirements call for varied funding models. \nTo explore
  these issues in the context of OA and much more, NFAIS is hosting a 
 One-Day Workshop, both in-person and virtual, Friday, October 23, at T
 he Hub's Cira Centre in Philadelphia.\nFor this special Workshop, NFAI
 S is bringing together thought leaders from the non-profit, commercial
 , consulting and academic sectors to share perspectives and research o
 n the impact of OA on the scholarly community and on the imperative to
  advance knowledge, information and research.\nThis event’s present
 ers will focus on the range of ideas and current practices that aim to
  drive a stable, sustainable and scalable path for OA, enabling the gl
 obal scholarly record to thrive over the long term.\nWho should attend
  this NFAIS Workshop: scholarly researchers, publishers, librarians, 
 government agency officials, non-profit scholarly society and foundati
 on staff, information services consultants\nAttendees of this Workshop
  will gain practical knowledge and understanding of:\n\nThe challeng
 es of the current set of OA funding and publication models, and concer
 ns about OA scalability and sustainability\nOA monographs and unique a
 pproaches for OA publishing in the Humanities and Social Sciences\nThe
  implications of OA funding models for research universities\nBuilding
  OA financial models that minimize risk to publishers\nPredictions abo
 ut the future of OA and how OA can become fully mainstreamed\nDiscussi
 on and analysis of recent NFAIS survey results on APCs as a funding mo
