The new ‘OA for books’ is part of Jisc’s portfolio of open research
products which will help to streamline the road to open access

Jisc has launched a new future-proofed OA for books tool that gives users a
simple overview of research publisher open access policies in a single
interface, creating a more efficient and streamlined process.

The new tool, ‘OA for books’ <https://beta.sherpa.ac.uk/oa-books> will help
authors and research organisations make informed and confident decisions in
open access publishing and compliance, and will enable everyone involved in
the research publication process – including authors, librarians and
repository administrators – to seamlessly check whether a publisher
supports compliance with UK Research and Innovation’s open access policy
requirements for longform outputs.
