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.

Are there examples of successful academic boycotts?
I can think of several unsuccessful examples, like the PLoS petition and the Cost of Knowledge boycott.
Getting academics to make and stick to collective agreements is like herding cats.

#EltonJohn is right about #AI, but for scientists it’s already too late because #Elsevier and #SpringerNature have already used our original works to train #ScopusAI and #Curie
(Marie Sklodowska-Curie is also presumably turning in her grave about her name being stolen too).

Milica Ševkušić presents DIAMAS. Aims to create high-quality, sustainable diamond OA ecosystem. Diamond OA is equitable due to lack of fees, & often supports native languages & multilingualism, but it's less sustainable. There's fragmentation, limited visibility, lack of recognition, variable income, & relies on voluntarism. Landscape report shows most non-profit, more in southern Europe: https://zenodo.org/records/11663153
