Authors Feedback

Thank you for accessing this survey!

Here at OBP, we would like to ask for your feedback on the publishing process with us. We would also like to collect demographic data about our authors, editors and contributors. This data will remain private and the identities of those individuals who agree to participate will not be disclosed under any circumstance.

We would also love to hear your thoughts or feedback on how we can improve title dissemination and readership.

Remember that if you are an author or an editor of any of our titles you can access the OBP Author Reports page to find out more about readership and sales information for your book. If you are unable to log in or have any questions please contact Laura Rodriguez at laura@openbookpublishers.com.

Thank you,
