<p><font size="2">Call for submissions for the Brill/IFLA Open
Access award<br>
<br>
Brill and IFLA are pleased to announce the new Brill/IFLA Open
Access award.<br>
<br>
The IFLA/Brill Open Access award is created to reward
initiatives that facilitate and/or promote Open Access
Scholarly Monographs in the humanities or social sciences.
This is in line with IFLA’s stated position on Open Access,
which aims to promote open access across its membership. This
is also in line with Brill’s open access policy. “Open Access”
in the context of this award refers to any structural
publication model, where the reader does not have to pay a fee
to access the leading version of a monograph and where the
content is made available without embargo.<br>
<br>
The award will be given to the person/institute behind the
initiative in recognition of outstanding work and effort in
facilitating, promoting, advocating, raising awareness in
regard to and/or disseminating Open Access Scholarly
Monographs published with an open license.<br>
<br>
The prize consists of:<br>
• Cash prize (€ 1000)<br>
• ILFA World Library and Information Congress (WLIC)
2013 registration (€ 500)<br>
• Travel to and accommodation to the IFLA WLIC in
Singapore (up to a maximum of € 1500)<br>
• The winner will be invited to attend Singapore in
person, or may identify a person to collect the prize on their
behalf.<br>
• The winner is responsible for registering for the
congress, and booking own travel and accommodation.
Reimbursement of costs will be arranged between the winner and
the Brill/IFLA contact persons.<br>
<br>
The following groups are eligible:<br>
• Initiatives that facilitate and/or promote Open Access
scholarly monographs such as projects or organisations<br>
• Individuals who have authored, facilitated or promoted
Open Access scholarly monographs<br>
<br>
Nominees can be suggested by the owners of the project, but
also by third parties, e.g. by authors, who published their
monograph in the framework of the OA initiative. <br>
<br>
Application procedure: Applications should be submitted to
the identified contact person below. They should include a
text of max 1 A4 page which contains:<br>
• An explanation of how far the proposed initiative
