Syracuse University Librarians, Faculty, and Publisher: Collaborating for Tomorrow with Path to Open (Library Journal) Online
How can libraries, faculty, and publishers work together to make open access books sustainable? Syracuse University was among the first to adopt JSTOR’s Path to Open pilot program—developed in partnership with the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS), University of Michigan Press, and The University of North Carolina Press—to advance equitable access and impact across the scholarly community. Syracuse participates at every level: through its press, library, and faculty authors. This session will share how the Syracuse University campus community is thriving with Path to Open. Join us to learn how Syracuse is partnering with JSTOR to expand access, support authors, and strengthen bibliodiversity. Discover how this collaborative model helps smaller presses thrive, gives faculty greater reach for their scholarship, and makes hundreds of high-quality titles available worldwide. You’ll also hear program updates—including the program’s first 100 titles flipping to open access and the upcoming 2026 title selections—and learn how your library can get involved in Path to Open.
