This year’s Physics Roundtable will bring together librarians from different institutions to discuss transformative agreements in STEM disciplines. Following a brief introduction to transformative agreements, the session will focus on their implementation and outreach at the institutions, i.e. what are the best ways to advertise to the authors who can benefit from covered article processing charges (APCs). With various open access mandates/policies at the funder and institutional levels, we expect that many colleagues are hearing about different “flavors” of transformative agreements through their organizations or consortiums. As the PAM Industry Roundtable will be looking at such discussions with publishers, this beginner to intermediate level session will complement it by providing some tips for effective outreach. With an hour-long session, we hope to leave at least 20 minutes for attendees to share their perspectives.
