In this EIFL webinar, guest speaker is Lucy Barnes, editor and outreach coordinator at Open Book Publishers (OBP), speaks about the OBP Library Membership Programme and the benefits of membership for library users. She discusses open access book publishing projects that OBP is involved in, including COPIM (Community-led Open Publication Infrastructures for Monographs) and ScholarLed (a consortium of five scholar-led, not-for-profit, open access book publishers). 

OPB is a non-profit open access book publisher established by academics at the University of Cambridge to publish rigorously peer-reviewed monographs in the Humanities and Social Sciences. EIFL and OBP have signed an agreement that provides libraries that are members of library consortia in EIFL partner countries with free membership of the OPB Library Membership Programme for three years.
