The study, part of the Horizon 2020 OPERAS-P project, explores how stakeholders perceive and experience innovation in their respective domains. Findings reveal that innovation in scholarly writing is not limited to technological advancements but encompasses a complex interplay of factors, including seamless access to research outputs, evolving formal features of scholarly texts, and new avenues for engaging with diverse audiences. Moreover, the study underscores the importance of infrastructural support and systemic recognition within academia to foster and sustain a culture of innovation in scholarly communication.
