Berghahn Open Anthro


Berghahn Open Anthro is a subscribe-to-open model being piloted by Berghahn Books in partnership with Libraria, a group of researchers who are also supporting a number of other publishers hoping to adopt this model should the pilot prove successful.

This model was developed in part through a 2019 ground-breaking collaborative meeting between publishers, libraries, funders, and OA experts that was held at MIT. BOA-S2O is in its third year and has added a new journal, Social Anthropology, in 2022.

Support for BOA-S2O from current subscribers is as simple as annually renewing your subscription or opting to subscribe to additional titles though the usual subscription channels. For new libraries interested in supporting the pilot, single titles can be subscribed to through your agent using the usual channels. To subscribe to the full Collection, please contact us directly: info@berghahnjournals.com.

Please support the initiative by emailing your Librarian directly (preferred as there is no danger of our emails being blocked by spam filters) or filling out the form below.

Recommend Open Anthro to your library

Dear Librarian / Library Acquisition Committee:

I would like to recommend:

THE FULL BERGHAHN OPEN ANTHRO COLLECTION!

BERGHAHN OPEN ANTHRO JOURNAL/S:

Please include this initiative in your next serials review meeting with my strong recommendation.

I recommend Berghahn Open Anthro for the following reasons:

I SUPPORT OPEN ACCESS: Subscribe-to-Open is an equitable and sustainable model which makes works publicly available and can be realized across a more diverse publications landscape.

BENEFIT FOR THE LIBRARY: BOA will be a valuable addition to the library's collection.

REFERENCE: I will refer to the journals frequently for my research work.

STUDENT REFERRAL: I will regularly refer my students to the journals to assist their studies.

OWN AFFILIATION: I am a contributor or member of the Editorial Board to a Berghahn Open Anthro journal.
