Abstract

This report was prepared for the University of Waterloo Library's Collection Strategy Committee to describe the current landscape of non-traditional publishing agreements between academic libraries and publishers. In addition to identifying and defining these types of agreements, this report provides criteria to use when deciding to sign a non-traditional agreement and suggests recommendations for moving forward with open access initiatives at Waterloo.
