| Abstract | The intersection of scholarly communication librarianship and open education offers a unique opportunity to expand knowledge of scholarly communication topics in both education and practice. Open resources can address the gap in teaching timely and critical scholarly communication topics - copyright in teaching and research environments, academic publishing, emerging modes of scholarship, impact measurement - while increasing access to resources and equitable participation in education and scholarly communication. This is an open textbook and practitioner's guide that collects theory, practice, and case studies from nearly 80 experts in scholarly communication and open education. The book delves into the economic, social, policy, and legal aspects of scholarly communication, as well as open access, open data, open education, and open science and infrastructure. Practitioners provide insight into the relationship between university presses and academic libraries, defining collection development as operational scholarly communication, and promotion and tenure and the challenge for open access. This book is a thorough guide meant to increase instruction on scholarly communication and open education issues and practices so library workers can continue to meet the changing needs of students and faculty. It is also a political statement about the future to which we aspire and a challenge to the industrial, commercial, capitalistic tendencies encroaching on higher education. Students, readers, educators, and adaptors of this resource can find and embrace these themes throughout the text and embody them in their own work. |
