How can libraries/academic publishers support scholars doing multi-modal projects (things that can't be published on paper)?

• peer review
• editing support
• open access
• tenure

Examples of projects, ideas for standards, discussion of what scholars (particularly DH scholars) need from publishers

Also video publishing:
    

• Have you done it?
• Expertise: the folks with knowledge in a field are unlikely to aslo be able to make a film about it
• Workflows: how do you keep it from being too infleible?
• Presentation:
  • chapters?
  • closed captions?
  • viewer annotations?

Acronyms: should we use different criteria

I'd love to get together and discuss models for collaborative scholarly publishing initiatives, like those that have been established at places like Michigan, Indiana, and Penn State. How are such collaborations structured? How do these collaborations change the nature of work that the participants (e.g., press staff, librarians) do? How do these collaborations change the missions of the involved organizations? What type of infrastructure is necessary to go the way of collaboration for publishing endeavors at a specific university? How do you rally support for such an initiative? How are tech assets roped in and funded? 

I'm interested in learning how various publishing operations—large and small, academic and trade—handle the production process from after a manuscript is handed off from acquisitions till you send it to the printer or make a digital product available.

What parts of the process do you do in house, and what parts are handled by freelancers or vendors?  Do you review the work done by outside parties, and if so, do you review exhaustively or only sample the work to check for quality?

At what stages do you involve the author/editor?  Do any freelancers or vendors interact with authors/editors directly, or do you always mediate the communication?

Note that I have a morning flight and will arrive late to the planning session, but hopefully this gives you enough to go on.

Here's how we do things, as an example:
