Duke University Press to Join the MIT Press' D2O Program in 2026
The MIT Press shared that “beginning in 2026, Duke University Press will join our Direct to Open (D2O) program. This collaboration marks the first such partnership with another university press for the D2O program, and reaffirms our shared commitment to open access publishing that is ethical, equitable, and sustainable.” D20 is a framework for OA monographs that is collaborative and library-supported instead of based on a purchase model in which individuals and libraries buy single ebooks.Duke University Press is contributing 20 frontlist titles annually along with the MIT Press’ 80 annual books. “Their participation in the D2O program—which will also include free term access to a paywalled collection of 250 key backlist titles—enhances the range of openly available academic content for D2O’s library partners,” the MIT Press states.
