13. Experimental Publishing Group

Copim’s Experimental Publishing Group are researching ways to more closely align existing software, tools and technologies, workflows and infrastructures for experimental publishing with the workflows of open access book publishers.

The Experimental Publishing Group maintain the Experimental Publishing Compendium which acts as a valuable guide and catalogue for those seeking to experiment with the form, content, and practice of scholarly publishing by listing various tools, practices, and examples that can help inform experimental publishing.

They are also conducting experimental book pilots, working with publishers, authors and open-source platform providers to foster and encourage practices of experimentation and reuse.
