Abstract
It is widely known that open access for research monographs is objectively harder than for journal articles. The economics and social processes are different, beyond a mere change of scale. That said, cause for optimism is to be found amid recent experiments that have demonstrated the value of such an undertaking. In this talk, I will set out the difficulties and the way in which some publishers are seeking to overcome them, as well as some proposed future directions for open access books.
