This paper describes my personal motivation for trying to establish Open Access book series. It contains an analysis of the financial aspects of academic carreers in some European countries, with a special focus on Germany and concludes that current book prices are too high for individual scholars to be affordable. In the remainder of the paper I suggest a setting that can solve the problem while ensuring a high quality of published books.
