The University of Magdalena, through its Unimagdalena Publishing House, has launched an innovative initiative to promote open access to its book collection. With this measure, students, researchers and readers will be able to explore a variety of works freely on its online platform.
The initiative will allow users to consult and download books from various disciplines that are part of the Unimagdalena Editorial catalog, including some that were highlighted at the recent Bogotá International Book Fair.
“Our catalog is increasingly diverse and has topics that are very pertinent to the Caribbean region. We have become a benchmark by exalting strategic scenarios of our territory,” said Angelica Cortés Martínez, coordinator of editing processes at Editorial Unimagdalena. “We have decided that readers have the opportunity to enter our website and acquire a wide variety of works in digital format.”
On the digital platform, visitors will find 72 works with the Publisher’s seal, including recent books such as ‘Café Caribe: history and economy of coffee growing in the Great Caribbean Basin, 18th-21st centuries’, ‘Mental health in Santa Marta : New technologies and gender violence in times of COVID-19’, and ‘Catalogue of Agaricales mushrooms from Unimagdalena’, among others.
