Abstract:Library publishing is both a growing area of interest in academic libraries and an increasingly visible subfield of scholarly publishing. This article introduces the field of library publishing—and the opportunities and values that make it unique—from the perspective of the Library Publishing Coalition (LPC). The LPC is an independent, community-led membership association of academic and research libraries and library consortia engaged in scholarly publishing, and it is the only professional association dedicated to this emerging area of librarianship. In its first five years, LPC has produced a robust set of resources to support library publishers, including the annual Library Publishing Forum, the annual Library Publishing Directory, and a variety of freely available professional development resources. It has also built a strong community of members and an extended network of affiliates. This paper presents and contextualizes these accomplishments and shares new developments and future directions for the Library Publishing Coalition.

通过图书馆出版联盟提高学院拥有的出版能力

摘要：图书馆出版既是高校图书馆关注的领域，也是学术出版的子领域。本文从图书馆出版联盟（LPC）的角度介绍了图书馆出版领域，以及使其独特的机会和价值。LPC是由学术研究图书馆和从事学术出版的图书馆协会组成的独立的，社区主导的会员协会，并且是致力于图书馆学这一新兴领域的唯一专业协会。在最初的五年中，LPC产生了一套强大的资源来支持图书馆出版商，其中包括年度图书馆出版论坛，年度图书馆出版目录以及各种免费的专业开发资源。它还建立了强大的成员社区和广泛的会员网络。本文介绍了这些成就并对其进行了背景介绍，并分享了图书馆出版联盟的新发展和未来方向。
