互联网在学术界取得了巨大的成功，因为它使学术界能够共享和查找研究材料;因此，开放获取已成为学术出版的现实。在这个新的环境中，出版商的角色是什么？出版的关键功能--组织同行评议、编辑支持、平面设计、市场营销和学术信息的分发--并没有消失;出版商仍然在这方面发挥作用，但他们需要采取更具服务意识的观点。学术界仍然需要找到办法，确保其成果得到传播;重要的是，他们要认识到，无论是内部引进还是外包，这都需要花钱。阿姆斯特丹大学出版社最近开始实施的IMISCOE项目提供了一种全新的出版模式，面向在线传播学术研究成果以及以书籍形式传播。
The Internet has been a huge success in the academic world, as it makes it possible for academics to share and find research materials; open access has therefore become a fact of life for academic publishing. But what is the role of publishers in this new environment? The key functions of publishing - organizing peer review, editorial support, graphic design, marketing, and distribution of academic information - do not just disappear; publishers still have a role here, but they need to take a more service-minded perspective. Academics still need to find ways to ensure the dissemination of their output; it is important that they realize that this will cost money, whether it is brought in-house or outsourced. The IMISCOE project, on which Amsterdam University Press has recently embarked, offers an entirely new publishing model oriented towards online dissemination of academic research results, as well as in book form.
