Dear Colleagues,
I thought you might be interested in sharing this call for papers with
other colleagues via e-mail or Facebook--or even better, submitting an
abstract yourself! I’m guest editing this issue of Against the Grain;
details below.
Thanks,
Erin

Call for Papers: Speak Up!--Communication between Academic Librarians
and Scholarly Publishers
I invite you to submit brief abstracts (1-2 paragraphs) prior to
September 4th, 2015 for the December/January 2015/2016 issue of
Against the Grain.
We are interested in a variety of perspectives and combinations of
perspectives. Distributors, publishers, vendors, consultants, library
patrons, and library workers are encouraged to send your ideas to
[log in to unmask]
We’re particularly interested in:
· best (or worst) practices from the library side and from the
scholarly publisher/vendor/provider side. What works and what
doesn’t? How did you arrive at these realizations?
· how do libraries take advantage of fruitful publisher relationships
to negotiate for better pricing/license terms/etc.?
· how relationships between libraries and publishers have evolved as a
result of models like evidence-based acquisition, demand-driven
acquisition, “big deal” packages, pay-per-view, etc.
· how librarians have adopted concrete policies or even created
specific positions in the library to deal with publisher
communications.
· how consortia handle publisher communications.
· perspectives on the future of library/publisher communications and
how we can improve even further.
