1 OPEN MONOGRAPHS AND OPEN PEER REVIEW AT PALGRAVE MACMILLAN Ros Pyne, Research & Development Manager, Open Research Nature Publishing Group / Palgrave Macmillan 5 December 2014

2 Palgrave Macmillan s model for OA books Authors charged an Open access publishing charge (=APC for books) ALL online versions of book are open-access (PDF, epub, Kindle version) Licensed under CC BY Print versions available at cost We do not subsidise OA through sales of alternative formats or through secondary revenues Why this model? Consistent, sustainable and future-proof Transparent: charges are associated with true costs of publishing Full open-access no compromise 2 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

3 Open access at Palgrave Macmillan June 2011: Hybrid open-access offering for Palgrave journals January 2013: Open-access option for monographs and Palgrave Pivots (short-form books) November 2013: First OA monograph published, A History of Fungal Disease April 2014: Fully OA journal, Palgrave Communications, open for submissions July 2014: First hybrid OA chapter, in 'The Social Construction of Death October 2014: First OA Pivot, Seeing Ourselves Through Technology 3 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

4 Palgrave s open access books in numbers Published 3 OA monographs 1 OA Palgrave Pivot 1 OA chapter Forthcoming 3 OA monographs 2 OA Palgrave Pivots 2 OA chapters Funders Wellcome Trust University of Bergen Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) Swedish Research Council, the Swedish Riksbankens Jubileumsfond and the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO Humanities) 4 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

5 Open access sales and usage As of October 2014: Nearly 700 views (COUNTER) 9 th most accessed title 2014 YTD More than 300 Kindle downloads 5* rated on Amazon (2 reviews) 5 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

6 Author s comments on Seeing Ourselves Through Technology Palgrave have done a great job of showing that [the book is open access] clearly in the catalogue text and when distributing to bookshops It s not half-hearted open-access-but-don ttell-too-many-peopleabout-it, Palgrave is unabashedly proud to be publishing an open access book. 6 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

7 Reaching wider audiences with OA books Make it easy to find OA titles on publisher platform Arrange deposit in subject and institutional repositories (no standard deposition route so far) Provide MARC records so librarians can add to catalogues Make available via non-academic platforms, e.g. Kindle download, Google Books Encourage funders and authors to share and promote OA books as widely as possible 7 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

8 8 New Business Models: Open Access 19 November 2014

9 Reaching wider audiences with OA books Make it easy to find OA titles on publisher platform Arrange deposit in subject and institutional repositories (no standard deposition route so far) Provide MARC records so librarians can add to catalogues Make available via non-academic platforms, e.g. Kindle download, Google Books Encourage funders and authors to share and promote OA books as widely as possible 9 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

10 Some book-specific OA challenges Funding: Higher costs, fewer authors, books most important in HSS funding gap Workflows: Trad. book workflow involves contracting at start of process Permissions: Hard to secure OA permissions for third-party material Systems: Publisher and industry systems not set up to handle OA (esp. for hybrid chapters) 10 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

11 11

12 Open peer review for monographs Palgrave s trial of open peer review ran Jan-March 2014 Interactive, 'crowd-sourced' open peer review proposal and sample chapters posted to a blog-based platform and open to public comment for six weeks. Ten titles in economics, sociology and cultural and media studies. Open peer review took place after initial review of proposals, while authors were writing books. Focus on constructive discussion and developing works, not gatekeeping. Chapters in trial were free, not OA, but our experiment was done with awareness that open peer review has a natural relationship with OA. 12 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

13 Response 14 open reviews posted. 6 of the 10 works received at least one review. 29 reviews/comments in total including author and Palgrave editorial responses. 3 authors received private comments via . The most reviewed proposal was Marco Magnani's Creating Economic Growth: Lessons for Europe, which received 6 open reviews. 3,700 visits (14,000 views) over six-week trial period. 13 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014

14 Reflections on crowd-sourced open peer review Hard to secure open comments would work better attached to an existing online network, or via standard review requests. Need to allow authors to choose the point in the writing process at which works are opened to review. Editors felt comments were not sufficiently detailed or comprehensive to substitute for traditional peer review. Authors were enthusiastic about possibility of encouraging debate and receiving additional feedback all were keen to participate in a future trial. 14 Beyond OA: Monographs 5 December 2014
