Focus groups1. Institutional
representatives including librarians, institutional repository staff, research managers
2. Publishers3. Learned Societies4. Researchers (as both
authors & readers)5. E-book aggregators6. Research Funders
Focus Groups: Key themesMetadata: What is the metadata required to support discovery, purchase, libraries, research funders?
Versioning, preservation & archiving: What is the version of record, how is it preserved (centrally?) and who provides archival access?
Usage: data collection methods and standards to support comparability of data
Methods of delivery: where should OA monographs sit, in what formats, with what functionality and using what standards?
Quality & prestige: impact of perceptions on adoption of a OA model and need to maintain excellence
What do authors want: readership, research dissemination, academic prestige and reward including the REF
Focus Groups: Key themesCopyright: ownership, licensing and rights associated with images
Benefits of OA: how to articulate opportunities; access and costs savings?
International issues: not just UK market, need to account for territories, translation etc.
Changing roles: who does what in an OA model, what are the roles for publishers, librarians etc., which to keep, which to start and which to discontinue?
Impact on processes: policies, mandates, funding routes, payment and behaviour
Consistency: should licensing, standards, peer review be standardised? Does one size fit all?
Focus Groups: Key themes
Ways to make OA profitable: how can publishers / ebook aggregators add value to content? Overlay services
Risk: how will the financial, reputational and quality risks be overcome?
Funding: who pays and how?
Calculating costs: what is the cost of an OA monograph and is it the same for all publishers, subjects?

Acceptability of publishing profit by career stage
No, not even if it is needed to cover publishing costs
Yes, but only to cover publish-ing costs
Yes, and it is acceptable to make a profit if that profit goes back into supporting the disci-pline (and, for OA question, making more open access con-tent available)
Yes, and it is acceptable to make a profit however you choose to spend it
