Subject: [lpc-l] 2022 Library Publishing Forum Call For Proposals now open!
The Library Publishing Forum<https://librarypublishing.org/forum/> is an annual conference bringing together representatives from libraries engaged in or considering publishing initiatives to define and address major questions and challenges; to identify and document collaborative opportunities; and to strengthen and promote this community of practice. The Forum is sponsored by the Library Publishing Coalition, but you do not need to be a member of the LPC to attend.
The Library Publishing Coalition (LPC) is now accepting proposals for the 2022 Library Publishing Forum! After the success of our Virtual Forums in 2020 and 2021, we are thrilled to offer both in-person and online options this year, with a virtual preconference the week of May 16, 2022, followed by the in-person Library Publishing Forum in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania May 25–26, 2022. We invite proposals for both of these events, and warmly encourage proposals from first-time presenters and representatives of small and emerging publishing programs. Proposals may address any topic of interest to the library publishing community. The proposal deadline is November 15, 2021.
Proposal submissions for both the virtual preconference and the in-person Forum are welcome from LPC members and nonmembers, including library employees, university press employees, scholars, students, and other scholarly communication and publishing professionals. We welcome proposals from first-time presenters and representatives of small and emerging publishing programs.
We are committed to expanding the diversity of perspectives we hear from at the Library Publishing Forum. Working towards some of the “Continuing Initiatives” from the LPC Roadmap for Anti-Racist Practice<https://librarypublishing.org/roadmap-for-anti-racist-practice/>, this year we ask all proposals to explicitly address how they are inclusive of multiple perspectives, address DEI, or incorporate anti-racist and anti-oppressive approaches. We also encourage speakers to provide us with information about themselves that will assist us in identifying proposals that balance geography, identity, and representation, especially from marginalized groups. Presentations about specific communities should include members of that community in their speaker list, and for sessions with multiple speakers, we seek to avoid all-white and all-male panels. Everyone submitting a presentation will also have an opportunity to complete a brief, anonymous demographic survey so we can better understand who is submitting proposals to LPF.
Learn more and submit a proposal<https://librarypublishing.org/program/>.

Hi All,
An instructor contacted recently with the following request:
We are creating a Pop Culture Sociology course and we are looking for an OER. Course Description:
Using a multi-disciplinary approach, students will explore and examine popular culture as one of the most significant cultural and social agents in contemporary society. Learners will study the emergence of pop culture studies and a range of diverse theoretical approaches including critical studies of gender, sexuality and race. Students will consider a variety of mediums such as music, video games, social media, art, film/television, fashion and celebrity. Finally, learners will study and reflect on the role of popular culture in the development of individual identity and group/community identity and action
I've checked the usual locations (OpenStax, OERCommons, MERLOT, BCcampus, eCampus Ontario, OASIS, Open Textbook Library, OASIS, OpenOregon, OAPEN) but I wanted to reach out in case there is a gem in a local repository. I think the instructor is looking for something equivalent to John Storey's textbook:

Any leads are appreciated!
Cheers,
Jessica

Subject: Looking for a French-language editor
Hi all,
We would like to recruit a French language editor to join the editorial team - our CFP specifies that we will accept submissions in either official language, and we need to provide the same level of review and editing for French and English submissions. Please share with anyone in your network who you think might be interested, and ask people to forward! Description below.
A group of us in the RDM community are developing an open RDM textbook – our goal is to create a comprehensive, peer-reviewed academic educational resource suited to the Canadian context – read more about the project and view the call for proposals here<https://www1.rebus.community/#/project/d87dea3d-1c54-47e5-9c7a-dfe71b8463f4>. Current project leads / editors are librarians Emily Carlisle-Johnston, Elizabeth Hill and Kristi Thompson. We are looking for a French-language editor to join our team – we will accept chapter submissions in either English or French. The French-language editor would be asked to take the lead on reviewing chapter submissions in French, and supervise production of the French edition of the text. Other roles and responsibilities for the fourth member of the editorial team would depend on background and interest.
Please note that we are all volunteers and this is not a paid position, however we have secured funding for project management and administrative assistance. Please send expressions of interest to rdmoerteam(a)gmail.com<mailto:rdmoerteam@gmail.com>.

This message is sent on behalf of Nicole Allen, SPARC.
Dear colleagues,
I’m thrilled to announce the launch of InclusiveAccess.org<https://www.inclusiveaccess.org/>: a community-driven initiative to raise awareness of the facts about automatic textbook billing.
Little known five years ago, Inclusive Access has taken off as a sales model that automatically adds the cost of digital textbooks into students’ tuition and fees. While this model is intended to address some of the challenges with high textbook costs, it is also creating new challenges for students and faculty.
How exactly does Inclusive Access work? Does it really save students money? What about this kind of program is “inclusive”? Straightforward answers to these questions aren’t always easy to find.
InclusiveAccess.org is a one-stop-shop for information, tools, and other resources to help administrators, faculty, students, and policymakers make informed decisions about Inclusive Access and its implications for the campus community.
InclusiveAccess.org was developed by SPARC with generous support from the Michelson 20MM Foundation<http://20mm.org/>. Partners<http://inclusiveaccess.org/about-us> include AAC&U, Academic Senate for California Community Colleges, Creative Commons, DigiTex, Student PIRGs, Open Education Global, and OpenStax. Other mission-aligned organizations are encouraged to join.
If conversations about Inclusive Access are happening in your campus or state, we hope you will consider sharing this resource far and wide! To stay in the loop, sign up for emails<https://www.inclusiveaccess.org/subscribe> and follow @TextbookBilling<https://twitter.com/textbookbilling> on Twitter.
Cheers,
