EconStor now systematically covers the open access books within its research disciplines economics and business administration from renowned publishers – like Oxford University Press, Springer, or Taylor & Francis – published under Creative Commons terms.

The integration of this open content is implemented regularly through a systematic monitoring of the both open access portals OAPEN and the Directory of Open Access Books (DOAB) as well as websites of additional publishers which are not integrated into these portals. The relevant titles are selected by the appropriate subject categories available in OAPEN and DOAB.

Please find an overview of the available open access monographs from certain publishing houses on EconStor here.
