Evidence & consultation RHS: Letter from the President: OA Publishing, Jan 13 • “insufficient consultation” • “Failing to acknowledge key differences between the research and publication landscape in HSS” • “Monograph publication has cardinal importance in HSS” • “Far from policy being evidence-based for the HSS, it appears to be evidence-free” • “Haste and lack of consultation” OAPEN-UK – OA monographs in HSS • Funded by the AHRC and Jisc • Highly collaborative and consultative project • Aims to provide stakeholders with a well-researched evidence base to ensure that decisions regarding a move to an OA model are based on knowledge and understanding of the UK HSS scholarly environment and the perceptions, processes and policies within it @oapenuk #oapenuk
