    Shana Kimball

    I am currently co-director of the Scholarly Publishing Office (SPO), a library-based publishing shop at the University of Michigan that provides sustainable and flexible methods for the distribution and preservation of scholarly work. My primary areas of responsibility are digitalculturebooks, the Library's open-access imprint with the University of Michigan Press; as well as the development and publication of SPO's other monograph publishing initiatives, specifically a partnership with Open Humanities Press. For the past four years, I have been the managing editor of the Journal of Electronic Publishing. I present frequently at industry and academic conferences on the emerging role of the academic library as a publisher, and am interested in the intersection of social media and scholarship.
