Lucy Barnes, Tom Mosterd, and Agata Morka, on the recently established Open Access Books Network (OABN):
We have come a long way from what started as a post-conference conversation in a bar in Marseille back in the summer of 2019, where the idea of creating a network for the OA books community was first discussed. The Open Access Books Network was formally launched in September and, as this strange year comes to a close, we wanted to have a look back at some of the OABN 2020 highlights.
OABN was one of the only good things to come out of 2020.
