Questions to David about his document?

Can some of this work be done by Brandon and is it FT?

UC Read and Publish Collaboration- Mark (refer to slides)

Ivy Anderson and Gunter Waibel from CDL approached him about possible partnership
OA 2020 Resolution, CSUN is the only campus that has signed on.

“Transformative Agreement” also called “read and publish” attempt (builds a pathway to OA)
*the agreement is cost-neutral-the same spend in the previous year for a straight subscription but adds a pathway to OA. Give access to the journal as well as OA access

What is the motivation?

Political win for the CSUs that we are working together to more uniformly and libraries are

First ever UC/CSU partnership
Win for publishers
UC is interested because the market dynamics are favorable—cost-efficient and cost-savings

Plow these cost savings back into the native OA journals which have a problem with sustainability

Faculty Choices

Probably not the big 3
Sage, Oxford, IEEE

Presented at CNI, a call to attention.

Not spending more than 2% of what they are going to spend and publishers won’t lose more than 2%

Transform the state of scholarly communications. Flipping journal packages to open access and allow the publishers to do what they do. The university subsidizes the research and via federal grants

What is a transformative agreement? (slides)

-Cost neutral (won’t pay more if already getting subscription
-Read and publish is what libraries will continue to pay.
*Goes through the CDL (dedicated data analysts) to manage all of this

Shows a unified front for higher ed in California
First dedicated CSU-UC library partnership

CSU Libraries would have to do a lot of education

Partnership should be dependent on CUL (Council of University Librarians).
This will be a long-term process and commitment and will be a paradigm shift.

Next steps will be to invite collaborators to next COLD meeting.
Should we invite Ivy Anderson and Gunter Waibel to a future COLD meeting?
