    Today we spotlight UCLA CMRS and their journal Comitatus for their participation in our S2O program. Edited by UCLA graduate students and sponsored by the CMRS Center for Early Global Studies, Comitatus highlights the work of emerging scholars from around the world in any field of late antique, medieval, Renaissance, early modern, or early global studies. "We’ve partnered with Project MUSE to distribute digital subscriptions to Comitatus for more than ten years, and we jumped at the opportunity to participate in the S2O trial. From our perspective as a small society publisher, the S2O model offers a seamless transition to open access, and we can draw on the resources and expertise of the Project MUSE team to do something we’ve been wanting to do for a long time. More importantly, for our authors and readers, the paywall will be removed, meaning even greater access to Comitatus articles and book reviews!” Discover and explore the full list of S2O publishers here: https://bit.ly/MUSE_S2O #s2o #openaccess

    Join us for a free webinar on our new Subscribe to Open program! On September 18, 2024 at 12 pm EST we will host a 60-minute panel discussion with speakers from university presses, libraries, and consortia. We will go beyond an introduction to Subscribe to Open to focus on equity of the model, practical applications, ease of participation, and clarify some common misconceptions. Audience members will leave the webinar with a deeper understanding of how the Subscribe to Open model has evolved and the challenges and benefits for publishers, librarians, consortia, aggregators, and authors and readers. Please register today and come with your questions as we will leave plenty of time for a lively Q&A! https://lnkd.in/ehcF9gJQ

    Universities have historically been integral to democracy. What can they do to reclaim this critical role? In What Universities Owe Democracy, Ronald J. Daniels, the president of Johns Hopkins University, argues that—at a moment when liberal democracy is endangered and more countries are heading toward autocracy than at any time in generations—it is critical for today's colleges and universities to reestablish their place in democracy. Explore this timely book from Hopkins Press. https://lnkd.in/gQcFny9r #oa #openaccess
