Practice Exploration and Experience Enlightenment of Open Textbooks in European University Libraries
The open textbook movement arose in North America because of the high price of business textbooks.After the introduction of open textbooks into Europe,European university libraries became the leader of open textbooks,and European university libraries explored a development model different from North America in the field of open textbooks,and accumulated rich practical experience.On the basis of exploring the advantages of open textbooks,and based on the association between university libraries and open textbooks,this paper explores the experiences and enlightenments of Eu-ropean university libraries participating in open textbooks,namely,strengthening the publicity and evaluation of open textbooks,building open textbook platforms,ensuring open textbooks from the policy,reforming library management and service,and strengthening copyright guidance.These experiences will provide reference for the implementation of open textbooks in Chinese university libraries.
