Emerging funder mandates like Plan S and strategies like Read-and-Publish/Publish-and-Read deals aim to make research openly available and end the traditional subscription business model in scholarly publishing. While the primary focus is on wresting science publishing from the hands of the large commercial publishers, the policies and strategies will also apply to the humanities and social sciences, disciplines not well-funded to support the author-pays model of open access. There are many experiments underway to find sustainable models for OA publishing in the humanities, but there is not yet a proven, sustainable, scalable model. Where does that leave publishers working primarily in the humanities and social sciences? This panel will offer overviews of the emerging OA mandates and strategies and the various OA compliance and funding models and then explore the impacts, risks, and rewards for H&SS publishing in the face of these pressures.
