Open access implies the idea of scientific information dissemination over the Internet that is free to the end user. The higher education and university libraries’ mission is to connect people and information, and the goals of open access help librarians respond to users' information queries more quickly. This paper presents the basic concepts of open access with an emphasis on creating an open access journal through ten steps. The open access portal at the University of Sarajevo is also presented within the paper, as well.

This paper presents the electronic publishing development at the University of Sarajevo through two projects, the development of the publishing portal of the Faculty of Philosophy and the implementation of the Open Journal System for the Social Issues Journal Pregled, published by the University of Sarajevo. As a technical solution, the electronic publishing portal of the Faculty of Philosophy combines Open Monograph Press and Open Journal System. Till now, three journals and more than sixty books published by the Faculty are available through this portal. In the previous period we completed the first phase of archiving the magazine Pregled with 1000 articles, accompanied by relevant metadata. This paper aims to present how librarians can contribute to the development of electronic publishing and open access. In the paper, we will also present plans for the next period that includes the creation of the Scientific Serial Publications Register of the University of Sarajevo.
