Summary:"This book aimed to gather information on the situation of open access for academic books in Ibero America. Understanding the dynamics of open access books in the IberoAmerican context at this particular time allows tracing routes and designing strategies that favor the presence of academic content in Spanish and in other languages of the region on the web. Open access is seen here as an extraordinary possibility for the dissemination and circulation of academic content, in addition to being a commitment to society. The overview offered in this book is the result of a research study, which was developed with the participation of more than one hundred and forty university presses from Latin America that, using a tool specially designed for this purpose, provided information on digital editing and the publication of open access works in the region. These results are complemented with interviews with the coordinators of some national networks of university presses and other representatives of the sector. Additionally, the findings are compared to data from Spain. The study also presents a review of the global situation of open access publishing and possible financing models, as well as some inquiries on intellectual property."--Provided by publisher
