Hello! 👋

We're Open Book Publishers: a non-profit, scholar-led, open access press publishing award-winning #OpenAccess books.

All our books are open access, and we don't charge authors or funders a Book Processing Charge to publish with us. We pioneered a Library Membership model to support our work -- find out more:

We're also building open, community-owned infrastructure to support #OAbooks with @copim.

We're looking forward to meeting people and getting to know hcommons.social! We might cross-post from Twitter for a bit while we find our feet, but we're excited to find out more about Mastodon as its own space.

Say hi if you're interested in our work!

Hey #LibraryTwitter if you follow any Chicago Public folx or check out #FairContractNow & #WeMakeChicagoWork you'll see a lot from our union today. A 🧵 with some info: we, along with 5 other locals comprised of city workers, have been at the bargaining table for 9 months.

A kid just prank called the library, asked if we have I SURVIVED THE TRAVIS SCOTT CONCERT, and to be honest? I’m here for it! 🤣 if you hear a clueless librarian on a TikTok that was me!
