CEU Press are pleased to announce that The National Library of Finland has renewed their initial three year membership of their Opening the Future programme.

The library has continued to boost their local collection by subscribing to the Political Science Package on top of their original subscription to the Library Selection package. 

This means that staff and students now have unlimited and concurrent access to 100 different eBooks on subjects including socio-political, economic and cultural changes, both past and present, across Central and Eastern Europe.

As with all Opening the Future members, The National Library of Finland has enhanced their eBook collection with titles relevant to the university’s research and teaching needs - and at the same time their membership fees are funding new frontlist titles in OA format so that everyone, including their users, will benefit from the global open collection it contributes to. We are very grateful for their ongoing support. 

Through the generous support of member libraries like them all over the world, CEU  Press has already been able to publish many new OA books (with more funded and planned) which are freely available for download from Project MUSE, OAPEN, JSTOR and other open platforms. You can read about, and access, all the OA books on the progress page: ceup.openingthefuture.net/forthcoming 

If you would like to see how your library might similarly enhance your digital collection by becoming a member of Opening the Future, you can read more about the programme, and sign up in just a few clicks at ceup.openingthefuture.net or sign up directly via Lyrasis or Jisc through your normal invoicing workflow.
