Another university press focusing on OA

I just found a few nice surprises at the English-language home page of the Karlsruhe University Press:

Karlsruhe University Press focuses on electronic publications. We also offer the production of printed books. Karlsruhe University Press has four main goals:  Speed....Quality control....Long term availability....[and] Free access: Research results of the University are transferred by the University Press to the scholarly community in accordance with Open Access, to help ensure the free access to scholarly information.

With the continuing proliferation of scholarly information, the future rests in electronic publishing and the internet. Online information is characterized by ease of access, at any time and from any place and reusability, and will lead to an improvement in the field of scholarly information and to higher efficiency of scholarly work in research, teaching and study.

Karlsruhe University Press thereby follows the positions laid out in the paper "Information vernetzen - Wissen aktivieren" [September 2002] of the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research, demanding free access to scholarly information world-wide for everyone at any time and from any place under fair conditions, as well as the promotion of information systems with high-quality service products under the criteria of the global market and efficiency....

Karlsruhe University Press combines the two concepts of Creative Commons and Open Access by publishing scholarly papers electronically on the Internet. It supports scholars in the self-determination of their copyrights while simultaneously guaranteeing the authenticity, world-wide access and long-term availability of their works.
