Why consider OA?If you want to distribute your book widely, you might consider an open-access model. As with all of our titles, your book will undergo peer review and careful editing and preparation by our team and will be available via online distribution outlets. The ebook (and individual chapters within an edited volume) will have a unique DOI number and will be permanently available online without charge.
What types of books can be OA?Edited volumes. monographs, and workbooks are all eligible for OA. In addition, up to three chapters in edited volumes can be available OA.
Will print versions be made available?Candlin & Mynard will also publish and sell a print version of the book as many readers and authors still prefer a hard copy. Authors will not receive royalties on any sales of print copies as they are likely to be minimal given that the ebook is freely available.
