A great thread (and paper) to read on the mission of libraries and the challenges to that mission posed by the book industry.
With the #ControlledDigitalLending #CDL case coming on Monday (3/20) @jziskina and I are excited to announce the release of “The Publisher Playbook: A Brief History of the Publishing Industry’s Obstruction of the #Library Mission.” [link at end of thread] /1

For those who write to be read, this is an important statistic.
Stunning statistic from @JSTOR at #chsconf22 - 8,000 of the 120,000 ebooks on JSTOR are OA. They account for 50% of all ebook usage on JSTOR. Am I getting this right, @rebseger ?

A thread worth reading as we all seek to strike a balance in equitable access and financial support for authors and publishers.
BREAKING: Today, 300+ authors are speaking up for the digital rights of libraries and asking for an end to corporate attacks against libraries. We hope authors will continue to reclaim their power & ✍🏻 at https://t.co/hYwQjfNnMW

Re-upping this announcement this morning: two excellent new legal guides from the Software Preservation Network, explaining how to use Section 108 (in the US) and Section 30.1 (in Canada) to augment our software preservation superpowers under fair use and fair dealing.

In his remarks just now on the Cancer Moonshot, @POTUS raised research sharing as "one of the biggest issues" necessary to speed discovery and highlighted his administration's work to ensure "transparency applies to all federally funded science." #OAintheUSA

“In the analog world, a Pearson textbook was resold up to seven times, and we would only participate in the first sale,” said Bird after the company announced its latest quarterly earnings. YES, BECAUSE THAT’S HOW SELLING THINGS IS SUPPOSED TO WORK. /1 https://t.co/L5HjJyCUqA

You could sell your textbook on the blockchain.

This is the right move, just as it was for COVID-19, but why wait for the next crisis? @POTUS @WhiteHouse We need a national open access policy to make ALL federally funded research immediately available to the public. #OAintheUSA #OpenScience #OpenAccess
To accelerate efforts to mitigate the #Monkeypox outbreak, @WHOSTP coordinated with 19 allies and partners in calling on publishers to immediately allow access to relevant research and data.

“Publishers saw that as an opportunity to strike a much larger blow… [They figured] that if they took the Internet Archive to court, they could essentially shut down online lending by all libraries altogether.” @aram on

So this is why being able to publish #openaccess editions of academic books is cool. What a great example from @DannaAgmon of the wide audience for humanities research we have previously been missing.

The quiet of an early morning on the quad at @EmoryUniversity. The birds are chirping and all is still before classes start.

I am excited to see more OA agreements with publishers but have noticed that these agreements don’t include copies for the Library’s IR. Have libraries given up on #OA repositories?
