BLOOMSBURY OPEN COLLECTIONS?

A new open access model for books

BLOOMSBURY OPEN COLLECTIONS is a collective-action approach to funding open access (OA) books. Through this model, we aim to make OA publication available to a wider range of authors by spreading the cost across multiple organisations, while providing additional benefits to participating libraries. By prioritising authors that are often underrepresented in scholarly publishing, including early-career and unaffiliated researchers and those based in/writing about low- and lower-middle- income countries, we hope to engage a more diverse author base, bringing their work to a wider global audience.

THE BOOKS

Following our 2023 pilot we have expanded our 2024-25 offering to three collections of 20 titles each in:

• African Studies & International Development

• Environment & Climate Change

• Gender & Sexuality

BENEFITS TO LIBRARIES

• Contribute to a progressive OA funding model that aims to make 60 research titles available open access immediately on publication at no cost to the authors

• Receive guaranteed perpetual access to the 20 titles in each Open Collection you participate in

• Receive 1 year’s access to ~150 backlist titles in related areas for each Open Collection you participate in

• Be publicly acknowledged on our website
