style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#637788'><br>
Co-Action Publishing and Lund University Libraries Main Office launched the
Online Guide to Open Access Journals Publishing (<a
href="http://www.doaj.org/bpguide/">www.doaj.org</a>). The online guide is directed
to small independent teams and provides practical information on planning,
setting up, launching, publishing and managing an open access scholarly
journal. Users can take advantage of additional resources in the form of links
to related information, samples of applied practices and downloadable tools
that can be adapted. The guide seeks to be interactive, allowing users to share
their own best practices, tips and suggestions through a comment field.
Development of the Online Guide to Open Access Journals Publishing was
generously supported by the Swedish National Library and the technical solution
was supported by Nordbib.<br>

<strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The Digital Repositories
infoKit</span></strong><br>
The Digital Repositories infoKit is a part of new web presence on Research
Information Management (<a href="http://www.jiscinfonet.ac.uk/research">www.jiscinfonet.ac.uk</a>)
released by JISC infoNet. The Digital Repositories infoKit (<a
href="http://www.jiscinfonet.ac.uk/infokits/repositories/index_html">www.jiscinfonet.ac.uk</a>)
is a practical 'how to' guide to setting up and running digital repositories.
This infoKit has been built using the documentation, guidance and expertise
built up during the Repositories Support Project (RSP: <a
href="http://www.rsp.ac.uk/">www.rsp.ac.uk</a>). The kit contains information
on a broad range of topics running from the initial idea of a digital
repository and the planning process, via detailed sections on repository set up
and promotion, through to the maintenance and ongoing management of the
repository. The main focus is on institutional repositories and the kit
reflects current repository community best practice. This resource has been
written for repository administrators. It assumes no prior knowledge of
repository matters and, more importantly, assumes no prior technical knowledge.
The kit can be used by anyone who needs an introduction to any of the topics
covered.<br>

<strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>How to build a business
case for an Open Access policy</span></strong><br>
A new report commissioned by JISC and written by Alma Swan from Key
Perspectives Limited shows how universities can work out how much they could
save on their profit and loss accounts as well as increasing their contribution
when they share their research papers through open access. The “Modelling
scholarly communication options: costs and benefits for universities” report (<a
href="http://ie-repository.jisc.ac.uk/442">http://ie-repository.jisc.ac.uk</a>)
is based on different types of university. It shows how universities might
reduce costs, how they can calculate these saving and their greater
contribution to society by following an Open Access route. The report focussed
on three approaches to Open Access: open access journals - content freely
available online using a business model that does not rely on subscriptions;
open access repositories – the current subscription-based system is
supplemented by the provision of Open Access articles in repositories; and open
access repositories with overlay services – content is collected in
repositories and service providers carry out the publishing services necessary,
for example the peer-review process. Supporting materials: How to build a case
for university policies and practices in support of Open Access: <a
