Item Assessing the Success of Library Published Journals(Against the Grain, 2019-10-04) Molls, EmmaIn 2015, the University of Minnesota (UMN) Libraries launched a publishing program. Following in the footsteps of earlier library publishing initiatives, the program seeks to serve campus by providing an affordable venue for publishing quality open access journals and other openly accessible formats.
