SUMMARY:Breakfast Briefing: Open Access Publishing of Scholarly Monographs
DESCRIPTION:Breakfast Briefing: Open Access Publishing of Scholarly 
 Monographs brings together library leaders\, university press 
 professionals\, and faculty to explore practical strategies for expanding 
 open access to USC-authored monographs. Featuring a keynote by Miranda 
 Bennett\, Director of Shared Collections at the California Digital 
 Library\, the event highlights recent University of California (UC) 
 initiatives that enable UC authors to publish open-access monographs with 
 select university presses at no cost\, while revitalizing underutilized 
 backlist titles.\n\nBennett will discuss the challenges and benefits of 
 opening access to long-form scholarship and share a forward-looking vision 
 for how similar efforts could be adapted at the University of South 
 Carolina. Building on her talk a panel discussion with USC leaders and 
 faculty will showcase a modest but impactful library–press open access 
 partnership.\n\nThis event is open to USC faculty\, administrators\, 
 staff\, and graduate students. Breakfast will be served. The event will be 
 held in Hollings Library.\n\n\nKeynote Speaker: Miranda Bennett\, Director
