#openjournalsystems — Public Fediverse posts

The OA Switchboard plugin for OJS 3.5 is now available!

Once enabled, the plugin automatically sends public article metadata to relevant research funders and institutions when an article is published. The metadata is captured at the point of publication and shared with the institutions affiliated with the article’s authors and the funders supporting the underlying research.
