|Title=High Integration of Research Monographs in the European Open Science  (HIRMEOS)
|Is About=The project High Integration of Research Monographs in the European Open Science (HIRMEOS) aims to disseminate open access research monographs in the field of social sciences and humanities (SSH). This Open access Publication in the European Research Area for Social Sciences and Humanities (OPERAS) project tackles the main obstacles to the full integration of monographs into the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).<ref>HIRMEOS.

|Important Because=Although SSH have embraced the practice of open access publishing, there is still a lot of room for progress, particularly regarding the access to the research monographs, one of the main dissemination outputs of these disciplines. Therefore, the main goal of HIRMEOS is to integrate the open access monographs into “open science ecosystem”<ref name=":0">HIRMEOS. OPERAS. [cited 2020 Nov 10]. Available from: https://operas.hypotheses.org/projects/hirmeos.</ref> and to help increase the visibility and value of the SSH work.<ref>Hole B, de Virgilio F, Bowley C. Shared Infrastructure for Next- Generation Books: HIRMEOS. ElPub 2018 June, Toronto, Canada. [cited 2020 Nov 10]. Available from: https://elpub.episciences.org/4624/pdf.</ref> 

HIRMEOS also plans to contribute to dissemination of open access monographs by implementing advanced tools for researchers and publishers<ref>HIRMEOS: Enhancing open access monographs in the digital research ecosystem. EKT National Documentation Centre. 2019 July 19. [cited 2020 Nov 10]. Available from: https://www.ekt.gr/en/news/23351.</ref> and developing a set of services on the current platforms for open access monographs: identification service, annotation service, peer-review certification system, named entity recognition and metrics service.<ref>HIRMEOS Services. [cited 2020 Nov 10]. Available from: https://www.hirmeos.eu/services/.</ref> For example, identification service refers to developing tools which allow the unique identifiers for content (DOI) and authors (ORCID) automatically validate the published content via the Directory of Open Access Books ([https://www.doabooks.org/ DOAB]). Open annotation will add open peer-review and open commentary to the documents and link them through unique identification, which will enhance interactions with users. Finally, the usage metrics service will standardize usage measures on the documents and add usage indicators such as downloads and social media impact.<ref name=":0" />

|Has Best Practice=HIRMEOS integrates five publishing platforms:

-[https://books.openedition.org/ OpenEdition Books], the OpenEdition platform dedicated to open access books. It is run by the Center for Open Electronic Publishing (Cléo) in France. The platform disseminates more than 2700 open access books from 51 publishers from the SSH fields. 

-[https://www.oapen.org/ OAPEN Library], a service run by OAPEN Foundation in Netherlands. It contains 2600 freely accessible academic books, mostly in the SSH disciplines. The platform collaborates with 120 publishers and provides services for publishers, libraries and research funders for deposit, quality assurance, dissemination as well as digital preservation. 

-[https://epublishing.ekt.gr/ ΕΚΤ ePublishing], the ePublishing platform of the National Documentation Centre in Greece. It offers advanced e-infrastructures and related services to institutional publishers in Greece such as universities, research centers, scholarly societies and memory institutions, with aim of publishing peer-reviewed journals, proceedings and monographs in the SSH disciplines.  

-[https://www.sub.uni-goettingen.de/en/publishing-open-access/goettingen-university-press/ Göttingen University Press], the publishing house of Göttingen University in Germany which has published scholarly texts by researchers affiliated with the university since 2003. It supports the principles of open access, meaning it provides online content for users free of costs and limitations. All digital publications of Göttingen University Press are available for the public use permanently. 

-[https://www.ubiquitypress.com/ Ubiquity Press], an open access publisher of peer-reviewed academic journals, books and data affordable for everyone. This publisher collaborates with RUA - an open source application developed by Ubiquity Press and designed to assist with the stages of the publishing monographs process: optional proposal, submission, internal review, peer review, copy editing, production and publication.<ref>HIRMEOS. OPERAS. [cited 2020 Nov 10]. Available from: https://operas.hypotheses.org/projects/hirmeos.</ref> 

One of the HIRMEOS objectives is to enrich these five digital publishing infrastructures with more functionalities and features to facilitate their further integration into the European Science Open Cloud.<ref>HIRMEOS: Enhancing open access monographs in the digital research ecosystem.
