For Publishers

If you would like to discuss how OtF might work at your own press, reach out to the publishing and technology experts at Fulcrum via email at openingthefuture@umich.edu

For Libraries

If your library is interested in enhancing your local collection through a subscription to Opening the Future please email Lyrasis on membersupport@lyrasis.org to discuss any aspect of the program, pricing, and which book package(s) you'd like to access.

Please include the following details to make the process quick and easy for your library:

  • Contact name.
  • Name and address of institution.
  • VAT number if applicable.
  • What Band/Tier your institution is in. Library and institutional members are tiered. Banding for US Institutions is tiered based on the Basic Classification from Carnegie Classification. In Canada we use the CRKN banding system. If your institution is based in a country covered by the Research4Life program, please use the smallest tier pricing.
  • Which package(s) of backlist books or the OA Supporter Membership you've chosen.
  • Institutional IP address range and/or OpenAthens ID so we can set up your access to the backlist books.
  • If you'd like to pay annually or all upfront in one payment.
  • If you give permission for your institution's name to be added to our list of member supporters on our webpage, and for us to make a short news announcement on here and on social media.
