Orthogate Press
About Orthogate Press
Orthogate Press operates on the model of a knowledge-based economy, to which we contribute by providing peer-reviewed publications unfettered by the desire to commodify thought or to restrict access to ideas.
We are dedicated to the dissemination of knowledge and research through open access digital journals and monographs, as well as through new electronic media.
One of our mandates is to publish innovative and experimental works that challenge established canons, subjects, and formats.
We plan to develop series that contribute to the scholarship of established and new disciplines. As we are dedicated to making Orthogate Press publications accessible to a broad readership through open access technologies, we cultivate the areas of open, distance, and e-learning.

Open Educational Resources

The development and promotion of OER is motivated by a desire to provide an alternate or enhanced educational model built around access, participation, and the open exchange of knowledge.
