Context

OpenEdition is a research infrastructure based in France dedicated to open access publication in the humanities and social sciences.

  • The OPERAS-D project “Design for Open Access Publications in European Research Areas for Social Sciences and Humanities” will support the five main partners of the OPERAS network in the development of a new European e-infrastructure for open access publishing in the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) and achieve the design study for it.
  • The HIRMEOS project “High Integration of Research Monograph in the European Open Science Infrastructure” will improve five important platforms publishing open access monographs in the SSH (OpenEdition, Oapen, Ubiquity Press, Göttingen University Press, EKT e-publishing) by enhancing their technical capacities and services and embedding them fully into the European Open Science Cloud.
