Newfound Press is a new digital imprint from the University of Tennessee University Libraries. All its publications will be Open Access. From the site:

Today’s scholarly publishing environment presents a strategic opportunity  or academic libraries to expand their role in the publications process. Universities are both creators and consumers in the information economy. A digital library press offers the potential for making scholarly and specialized resources widely available at a reasonable cost. The University of Tennessee Libraries is developing a framework to make scholarly and specialized works available worldwide. Newfound Press, the University Libraries digital imprint, advances the community of learning by experimenting with effective and open systems of scholarly communication. Drawing on the resources that the university has invested in digital library development, Newfound Press collaborates with authors and researchers to bring new forms of publication to an expanding scholarly universe. We consider manuscripts in all
disciplines, encompassing scientific research, humanistic scholarship, and artistic creation.
