Editoria™ Streamlining Monograph Production with Collaborative Knowledge Framework California Digital Library LPC Forum May 18, 2016

Press Library We have complementary skill sets/expertise. We are both non-commercial, mission-driven organizations (i.e. no money) We have a shared interest in building the infrastructure to support humanities research We both need this kind of platform to support our own Open Access humanities book publishing programs.

UCP venturing into Open Access book publishing with its Luminos monograph program – and needs to get BPCs as low as possible CDL looking to increase support for library partners, who want to provide services for authors and editors of book length works

The Vision for Editoria™ Move authoring, revision, and editorial workflow to the web. Use web standards and open APIs to achieve flexibility and adaptability Incorporate web-based tools and workflows to speed production processes and create cost efficiencies Help create a sustainable future for monograph publishing

The current workflow is not dynamic

It could be more iterative and collaborative
