Open Scholarship Press

The Open Scholarship Press makes relevant open social scholarship research and output available openly to academics and non-academics alike. Its mandate is threefold:

  • Curate and republish foundational, significant open access work in open social scholarship—and publish select important new and emergent work in the area—as objects of intervention aligned with stated goals of the Implementing New Knowledge Environments (INKE; https://inke.ca/) Partnership and its members and employing established and emergent methods pertinent to them.
  • Publish open access journal issues related to work undertaken by Canadian Social Knowledge Institute (https://c-ski.ca/) entities, as objects of intervention and academic record aligned with shared open social scholarship goals.
  • Provide a space for INKE Partnership researchers and partners to model collaborative, open scholarly practices that effectively meet the interests and needs of an engaged public for humanities and social sciences research in particular.

The Open Scholarship Press has published foundational research scans and curated volumes of reprinted, open access material on PubPub and Wikibooks. Further details are available here.
