[ANPPOM-L] primeira editora acadêmica totalmente digital

[carlos palombini]

Colleagues,

I'm pleased to ask you to point your browser to the Web site of the Rice University Press, the first all-digital university press: http://ricepress.rice.edu.

Working under an open source e-publishing platform developed at Rice, there are two publications to date (both appear under a Creative Commons license):

Hilary Ballon and Mariet Westermann, Art History and Its Publications in the Electronic Age (2006). Report on a study funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, co-published by the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR). 

Lawrence McGill, The State of Scholarly Publishing in the History of Art and Architecture (2006). Companion report to Ballon-Westermann.

The publications as well as the publication model itself should prove interesting to this audience.
