Calling all libraries and book publishers! Would you like to help learned society, subject association, and smaller specialist book publishers make a successful transition to sustainable open access models? If so, we would very much appreciate your responses to:  - survey for librarians (https://lnkd.in/ednvV2uf)  - survey for publishers (https://lnkd.in/eNmdp5Tb) - it would be helpful if library publishers would consider completing both – thank you.   The survey will close on 28 June. PDF versions are linked from the online surveys in case you would like to discuss responses with your colleagues in advance.   This survey is sponsored by UKRI in partnership with the The Association Of Learned and Professional Society Publishers (ALPSP), The British Academy, and the Open Access Scholarly Publishing Association.
