Research Findings
As we progress through the research plan we will post results and findings from the stakeholder focus groups, surveys, interviews and the data analysis on usage and sales of the open access monographs and control group titles in the pilot.
One of the first activities in year one of the research plan is a series of focus groups with stakeholders. The focus groups will help us to identify key issues and concerns regarding a move to OA monograph publishing in the humanities and social sciences.
View the findings from the following focus groups – we have completed our first round of focus groups with institutional representatives, publishers and authors / readers, e-book aggregators, learned societies and research funders. We also held an short session with research managers and administrators.
View the findings from our first annual benchmarking survey with project participants including the authors of the titles and our steering group members.
View the findings of the survey of humanities and social science researchers that explored their attitudes towards open access, publisher services, reading preferences, scholarly communications and Creative Commons.
