Abstract

This poster highlights the importance of integrating open metadata management in open access book publishing. It showcases publishers from a variety of regions across the globe using Thoth Open Metadata to manage and distribute FAIR and open metadata in multiple formats. Doing so, Thoth Open Metadata enables publishers to establish good metadata practice, while also fostering discoverability, sustainability, and accessibility of publishers' valuable contributions to the scholarly record. The implementation of open practices also promotes collaboration with open infrastructures supporting open scholarship.
