Developing an Academic Publishing Service Continuum

This paper describes the establishment of a continuum of publishing and preservation services for the academic community at the University of Cambridge, particularly in relation to grey literature. It sets out the initial identification of the need for this service and the process of establishing a variety of options. As the project is at an early stage, the paper discusses the particular issues such an initiative faces in a research university consisting of a large number of institutions with significant levels of autonomy.
