--- title: Close Reading with Computers is now open access at Stanford University Press layout: post image: feature: closereading.png --- In ultra-exciting news -- thanks to my Leverhulme Prize -- I am very pleased to be able to be able to say that my book, Close Reading with Computers: Textual Scholarship, Computational Formalism, and David Mitchell's Cloud Atlas, is now openly accessible (gold OA under a CC BY-SA 4.0 license) at Stanford University Press! It will soon be in the OAPEN Library and on the Stanford site, but for now it's [freely available in BIROn](https://eprints.bbk.ac.uk/20716/). (And no, this isn't just a temporary thing like loads of "coronavirus OA"; it's forever.)
