    📣 Our friends at the #ScholCommLab have published a preprint, "The Drain of #ScientificPublishing", and are calling for #research communities, funders, governments, and #universities to "re-communalise publishing to serve #science not the market"

    PKP supports this call, and works to develop and maintain free open software for independent scholarly publishing.

    Here the latest news on the Journal of Biogeography editorial work stoppage and mass resignations, from Twitter/X:

    I along with 95% of #AssociateEditors have now #Resigned from @jbiogeography. @WileyGlobal never responded to our invitation to discuss #BetterPublishing.

    Very sad to see this outcome of a once highly respected journal. But hope we all learned a lesson from this and stop submitting to such journals.
