Who Owns, Publishes, and Governs Diamond Open Access?

A new survey by Natascha Chtena, Juan Pablo Alperin, Mikael Laakso finds a wide variety in the combination of ownership, publishing and governance among Diamond OA Journals. From their new perspective of „Institutional bricolage“ this is not a lack of clear structure, but rather a practical adaptation to a diverse environment.

DOACH starts today

We have successfully completed the swissuniversities-supported project to create a single point of access for Diamond OA publishing. DOACH is going live today with a soft launch. Over the coming weeks, we will continue to test the website and gather feedback. We will then officially launch diamondopenaccess.ch during Open Access Week in October.

Alles, was nötig ist, damit ein Beitrag in meinen Zeitschriften publiziert und in die Bibliothek oder Datenbank gestellt wird, ist bei mir automatisiert. Nur das Peer-Review nicht. Das Peer-Review gehört aber zum Wissenschaffen immer dazu... und für die Wissenschaft werde ich bereits aus öffentlichen Mitteln bezahlt! Diamond OA ermöglicht das Publizieren nach rein wissenschaftlichen Massstäben.
