Guiding Principles for OA Book Usage Data Services

In June 2021, 16 members of the Advisory Board and Project Team of the Open Access eBook Usage (OAeBU) Data Trust project worked together to identify guiding principles to inform an OAeBU data exchange service and OAeBU data dashboard service. Contributors and authors worked over two, hour-long facilitated sessions and engaged in asynchronous drafting and refining prior to releasing the Guiding Principles to the full Advisory Board and project team for review and feedback. This document reflects the principles and the ideation session outputs that informed their creation.This work was made possible through grant funding provided via the "Developing a Data Trust for Open Access Ebook Usage" project funded by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation
