@egonw "Once they have critical mass, they will start charging non-zero APCs." - it very disappoining to recently find out that RSC's only #DiamondOA journal, Chemical Science, was flipped to gold. So it's not just a commercial journal strategy (although there are MANY examples of those). This was very disappointing!

@ombialik
I completely support the message about preprints.

But please don't perpetuate the myth that all or even most #OpenAccess journals charge #APCs. Most do not charge APCs (#DiamondOA). And OA repositories never charge APCs (#GreenOA).

But note this nuance. While most #OpenAccess journals (today 62%) charge no APCs, most articles published in OA journals (today 72%) are published in APC-based OA journals.

Thanks to the research of @waltcrawford for the second number. See p. 6.

As of today, the Directory of Open Access Journals (#DOAJ @DOAJ) lists 23,131 peer-reviewed #OpenAccess journals, of which 14,347 charge no #APCs. Hence, 62% of these OA journals are no-fee or #DiamondOA.

You can get the latest raw numbers any time you want on the DOAJ front page, and the percentage is an easy calculation. Please correct people who say or assume that all or even most OA journals charge APCs. Most do not.

📣 Read on Université Côte d’Azur’s diamond open-access publishing platform, and more specifically in the journal LexSociété, an original article (in french) by Amélie Imbert entitled “Thinking Law Through Science Fiction: Law, Imagination and Crisis. An Analysis of Everything for Everyone by M.E. O’Brien and Eman Abdelhadi.”

Situated at the intersection of critical legal approaches and the Law & Literature movement, the article offers an analysis of this 2022 novel and explores the potential contributions of so-called speculative or imaginative literature to legal scholarship.

Beyond inviting readers to engage with the forms of defamiliarization, as well as continuity, that can be identified in fictional discourses about law, the article opens up a broader reflection on research methods, the kinds of knowledge they produce, and, more generally, on the very role of imagination itself.

📣 Issue 85 of the journal Alliage is available on Epi-Revel. This issue is the result of the study day entitled “Paul Feyerabend: a radical epistemology,” held on March 22, 2024 at the École Normale Supérieure (rue d’Ulm, Paris).

https://epi-revel.univ-cotedazur.fr/collections/show/2065

The event was coordinated by Matias Girel, Jean-Marc Lévy-Leblond, and Stéphane Van Damme, with the support of the Centre Jean Cavaillès and the Institute of Modern and Contemporary History.

The contributions gathered here explore the legacy of Paul K. Feyerabend (1924–1994), a Viennese-born philosopher and a major figure in 20th-century epistemology.

[...] pit presses as well as other stakeholders in open publishing against one another in the pursuit of financial profit.

Both initiatives have been set up from the get-go as non-profits to ensure that they cannot be bought out by commercial players. More importantly, our governance models have been modelled in such a way that the communities we serve have an active say in the direction of our initiatives. For example, the Open Book Collective's governance is led by its Board of Stewards, which brings together its three main constituent groups of libraries, infrastructure providers, and publishers (many of them Born OA / #DiamondOA). For Thoth, we've recently published our first self-assessment against POSI, the Principles of Open Scholarly Infrastructures, which I'm sharing below.
