Digital Scholarship has released the Academic Library as Scholarly 
Publisher Bibliography, version 3 (https://bit.ly/40qOIrj). This 
bibliography includes over 300 selected English-language articles, 
books, and technical reports about academic libraries' digital 
publishing programs from 1989 though 2022. While academic libraries have 
published a variety of digital publications during this period, this 
bibliography primarily covers the open access publishing of scholarly 
books, journals, and other serials. It provides a brief narrative 
overview of the early development of these publishing efforts. It covers 
the establishment of new university presses by academic libraries, 
especially all-digital open access presses, and the merger or 
cooperative efforts of libraries and university presses. It also covers 
the technical publishing infrastructures used by library publishing 
programs. It includes full abstracts for works under certain Creative 
Commons Licenses. Use the PDF version of this bibliography (52 pages)
