A keynote lecture delivered at the Open Educational Resources (OER20) conference on April 2nd, 2020.

In this section we have collected different guidelines, best practices, and recommendations for publishers and authors who want to promote further interaction with their open access book(s) or book collections and wish to implement or experiment with (libre) open practices.

Panel presentation as part of the Open Access Week webinar 'Equity and inclusion: Community-owned infrastructures for open science', Oct 21, 2020.

This part provides a literature overview identifying the opportunities digital technologies offer for enhanced interactions with open access books. It outline types of interactions, various book publishing experiments with reuse, and technological and cultural inhibitions.

Critiquing and reimagining our publishing workflows at the interface of print and digital media.

In this part, we explore various open source tools, software, technologies, platforms, infrastructures, guidelines, and best practices, that lend themselves to adoption by publishers and authors so as to support and enable interaction with open access books.

A series of co-written multi-media blogposts documenting and sharing experiences and findings from the process of creating an experimental book and the workflows to support it.

As part of the documentation for the first book coming out of the Combinatorial Books Pilot Project, we are reflecting on its application of collaborative re-writing as a form of re-use.

The publication of experimental, digital work engenders different roles and relationalities, requiring “a kind of collaboration among authors, editors, and technical staff that is quite different from the traditional publishing process

Our proposed workflow for creating, peer reviewing, and publishing Combinatorial Books

As part of the documentation for the first book coming out of the Combinatorial Books Pilot Project, we are introducing and discussing the set of modular, open source writing, editing, annotating, and publishing software, tools, and platforms we have used

A Spotlight on COPIM, the Community-led Open Publication Infrastructures for Monographs, on organizational adaptation in an ever-shifting publication ecosystem. (One hour with transcript)

With the COPIM project having finished at the end of 04/2023, we are looking back on what COPIM has been able to achieve over the last 3.5 years, before also casting a look ahead to the next project phase of Open Book Futures (05/2023-04/2026).

Launch of Experimental Book Project by the Research Data Share Collective, African Minds, and Platform for Experimental Collaborative Ethnography

A collectively authored response by the Copim community, in which we welcome the principle of open access by default in the REF 2029 open access policy for longform publications, but argue that it could provide clearer mechanisms for supporting Diamond open access publishing

The Copim team respond to news of a new iteration of PubPub—PubPub Platform—and its associated hosting fee; comment on the benefits and challenges involved in self-hosted versions; and reflect on the importance of community governance for open infrastructures.

Some thoughts from the Copim Open Book Futures team on Research England's decision not to include an OA mandate for monographs submitted to the next REF

In this post, we outline what community-led means to us in theory and in practice, how it can be identified in organisations, and some of our concerns about the co-option of the term.

In this post, we explain the concept of 'scaling small', why it is powerful, and how it has been implemented in Copim's work.
