Academic Library as Scholarly Publisher Bibliography, Version 3 Digital Scholarship 27 Mar 2023 14:29 UTC

Digital Scholarship has released the Academic Library as Scholarly
Publisher Bibliography, version 3 (https://bit.ly/40qOIrj). This
bibliography includes over 300 selected English-language articles,
books, and technical reports about academic libraries' digital
publishing programs from 1989 though 2022. While academic libraries have
published a variety of digital publications during this period, this
bibliography primarily covers the open access publishing of scholarly
books, journals, and other serials. It provides a brief narrative
overview of the early development of these publishing efforts. It covers
the establishment of new university presses by academic libraries,
especially all-digital open access presses, and the merger or
cooperative efforts of libraries and university presses. It also covers
the technical publishing infrastructures used by library publishing
programs. It includes full abstracts for works under certain Creative
Commons Licenses. Use the PDF version of this bibliography (52 pages)
