Webinar: Discovering book publishing platforms

The webinar will include demos from platform providers Coko Foundation (Ketida), Manifold and The Public Knowledge Project's Open Monograph Press (PKP/OMP), and is part of PublishOA.ie’s mission of evaluating the feasibility of establishing a national publishing platform in Ireland.

If you are involved in book publishing or curious about open source systems, this webinar will give you the opportunity to see different platforms in action and put questions directly to the teams involved.

Each platform will be presented, followed by a Q&A session.
