The University Library of Erlangen-N\u00fcrnberg received the BMBF funding decision at the end of July 2023 and the project will soon be launched in practice. It will build on existing preliminary work.<\/p>\n<p>With the Open Source Academic Publishing Suite (<a href=\"https:\/\/os-aps.de\/en\/\">https:\/\/os-aps.de\/en\/<\/a>), a free open source software toolbox was created as part of the previous BMBF funding, which enables FAU University Press and other university presses, small publishers and journals to set up XML-based workflows for media-neutral publishing in their corporate design for open access publications. During the first project period, however, the publishers expressed further wishes that went beyond the scope of the funding at the time in the course of the changing open access publishing landscape:<\/p>\n<p>These requests included better support for complex manuscript features (including formulae, tables) from the technical and scientific STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics). In particular, this includes MathML support and L<sup>a<\/sup>T<sub>e<\/sub>X import options.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to these import requests, there were also inquiries for additional export formats: JATS and BITS-XML formats in particular are becoming increasingly important in the publishing industry and for FAU University Press, as they contain the relevant metadata of the publication in addition to HTML. JATS is also required for indexing in specialist databases such as PubMed or JSTOR and for feeding into distribution platforms such as DeepGreen or the Jisc Publications Router; smaller university publishers are currently usually unable to provide a correspondingly complex full-text and metadata system in the JATS standard.<\/p>\n<p>However, the support of XML reading formats also raises the question of online readers for readers. The follow-up project is therefore developing a reader for the optimised online presentation of dynamic XML content.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the new Accessibility Act is a major challenge for smaller publishers and journals. OS-APS_STEMO provides for new publisher-based testing and optimisation workflows to improve the accessibility of the publications produced for visually impaired people. If successful, our project will make life much easier for the publishing open access community.<\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->        <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OS-APS_STEMO is the acronym for the \"Extension of the Open Source Academic Publishing Suite (OS-APS) for complex STEM publications and optimised online presentations\".

Die Universit\u00e4tsbibliothek Erlangen-N\u00fcrnberg erhielt Ende Juli 2023 den Zuwendungsbescheid seitens BMBF und demn\u00e4chst startet das Projekt in der Praxis. Hierbei wird auf bestehende Vorarbeiten aufgebaut.<\/p> <p>Mit der Open Source Academic Publishing Suite (<a href=\"https:\/\/os-aps.de\">https:\/\/os-aps.de<\/a>) wurde im Rahmen der vorherigen BMBF-F\u00f6rderung eine freie Open-Source-Software-Toolbox geschaffen, die es FAU University Press sowie weiteren Universit\u00e4tsverlagen, Kleinverlagen und Zeitschriften erm\u00f6glicht, XML-basierte Workflows zum medienneutralen Publizieren im Corporate Design f\u00fcr Open-Access-Publikationen aufzubauen. W\u00e4hrend der ersten Projektlaufzeit wurden jedoch im Zuge der sich ver\u00e4ndernden Open-Access-Publikationslandschaft von den Verlagen weitergehende W\u00fcnsche ge\u00e4u\u00dfert, die \u00fcber den Umfang der damaligen F\u00f6rderung hinausgingen:<\/p> <p>Diese W\u00fcnsche umfassten u.a. eine bessere Unterst\u00fctzung komplexer Manuskripteigenschaften (u.a. Formeln, Tabellen) aus den technisch-naturwissenschaftlichen STEM-Bereichen (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics). Dazu geh\u00f6ren insbesondere die MathML-Unterst\u00fctzung und L<sup>a<\/sup>T<sub>e<\/sub>X-Importm\u00f6glichkeiten.<\/p> <p>Neben diesen Importw\u00fcnschen gab es auch Anfragen nach zus\u00e4tzlichen Exportformaten: Insbesondere JATS und BITS-XML-Formate gewinnen im Verlagswesen und auch f\u00fcr FAU University Press zunehmend an Bedeutung, da sie neben HTML auch die relevanten Metadaten der Publikation enthalten. JATS wird zudem f\u00fcr die Indexierung in Fachdatenbanken wie PubMed oder JSTOR sowie f\u00fcr die Einspeisung in Distributionsplattformen wie DeepGreen oder den Jisc Publications Router ben\u00f6tigt; kleinere Universit\u00e4tsverlage k\u00f6nnen eine entsprechende aufwendige Volltext- und Metadatenanlage im JATS-Standard derzeit meist nicht leisten.<\/p> <p>Mit der Unterst\u00fctzung von XML-Leseformaten stellt sich aber auch die Frage nach Online-Readern f\u00fcr die Leserinnen und Leser. Das Folgeprojekt entwickelt deshalb einen Reader f\u00fcr die optimierte Online-Darstellung dynamischer XML-Inhalte.<\/p> <p>Eine gro\u00dfe Herausforderung f\u00fcr kleinere Verlage und Zeitschriften ist abschlie\u00dfend das neue Barrierefreiheitsgesetz. OS-APS_STEMO sieht hierzu neu verlagsbasierte Pr\u00fcf- und Optimierungsworkflows zur besseren Zug\u00e4nglichkeit der produzierten Publikationen f\u00fcr sehbehinderte Menschen (Barrierefreiheit beziehungsweise -armut) vor. Unser Vorhaben wird im Erfolgsfall gro\u00dfe Erleichterungen f\u00fcr die verlagsseitige, publizierende Open-Access-Community bedeuten.<\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3769","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3769"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3769\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4781,"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3769\/revisions\/4781"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3770"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3769"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3769"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.university-press.fau.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3769"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
