Sam Moore and I have never properly met until the #oaspa2025 meeting in Leuven. But today I got to meet the force behind this new #openaccess book, a new framework for our thinkng about openness & community: Publishing Beyond the Market | University of Michigan Press press.umich.edu/Books/P/Publ...

"Brilliant and accomplished"? I'm having that mug painted now 😀

@lizlorbeer.bsky.social was ##doingthecharleston today at #acrl2025. It's not the same without Katina here in person but we've got a big banner at booth #935. The book is a free Kindle download here: a.co/d/dv7YVGC

I'm #doingthecharleston at #acrl2025. Come join me at booth 935 in Minneapolis! Let's see if the banner stays up.

Kate McCready @bigtenacademic.bsky.social and I @michiganpublishing.bsky.social are proud to have a paper accepted for the @ala-acrl.bsky.social 2025 meeting. "Look to the Champions of Freedom for All: How Libraries Can Advance Democracy Through Opening Access" can be downloaded here: doi.org/pd79

Fun to look back at the surge in usage that @uofmpress.bsky.social books experienced in 2024 as our "Fund to Mission" #openaccess program gains momentum - 10,000 accesses per OA book on average, but human reader stories are the best. ebc.press.umich.edu/stories/2025...

Part of the problem with Trump stunts is that it elicits a cycle of underthought overreactions—social media hot-takes included. As an antidote, I warmly recommend this deeply researched book by my Danish colleagues—in open access no less. www.fulcrum.org/concern/mono...

Want to know the truth about Greenland and arctic security? @UofMPress has a free, new #openaccess book for that, press.umich.edu/Books/G/Gree...

Throwback colophons! @charleswatkinson.bsky.social at @uofmpress.bsky.social shared this 1949 poster of the logos (aka colophons) of the 69 @aupresses.bsky.social members. Our @uscpress colophon is, well, curious. @ohiostatepress might have the best, futuristic look!
