1. Future Directions for Scholarly Publishing at the University of California Catherine H. Candee Director, Publishing and Strategic Initiatives Office of Scholarly Communication California Digital Library

2. Guiding Principles ► To remain competitive the university must provide a research infrastructure for its faculty that will ensure productivity and stimulate innovation in all aspects of the research, teaching and learning cycle ► Publishing must be conceived more broadly than the production of an archival record; it is an integral part of the research enterprise ► Publishing must embrace a suite of production and dissemination activities, some of which will be revenue generating ► Publishing must enable faculty to create and distribute works via the most appropriate means

3. UC Strategy ► Align UC publishing services with the academic enterprise of the University of California ► Broaden the role of the university press beyond gatekeeper for a select few; reclaim and extend the original role of the university press ► Develop publishing services to be interoperable with services for research and supplementary data ► Coordinate planning across the UC system, find intersections in IT planning, digital stewardship, research data support, publishing and preservation

4. UC Publishing 2007-2008 ► Extend repository-based services to support the implementation of UC policy on faculty copyright ► Formalize a collaboratory structure for UC Press and CDL’s eScholarship Office to focus efforts in strategic publishing initiatives ► Provide a robust journal publication service: offer a menu of choices for editorial assistance, production quality, print and access options ► Implement cost-recovery mechanisms; secure open access options ► Seek efficiencies across traditional publishing modalities, e.g., books and journals; invest savings in R&D for emerging publishing modalities
