Join us Sept 25 for a virtual panel discussion on FEMINIST FUTURES OF PEER REVIEW featuring April Petillo, Josen Masangkay Diaz, Dolores Inés Casillas, and Cathy Hannabach.

What's the best critique of open access that's not conservative or reactionary?
Is there any article or book from the last decade that really stands out?

There's been a cluster of editorial defections from scholarly journals. What needs to be discussed further is how the push for open access at seemingly any cost is a driving factor!

I just posted some reflections and analysis on scholcomm/OA from the past year at https://ghamandi.hcommons.org/2023/07/31/open-power-and-the-organized-masses/
Getting my feet wet writing more regularly again 😀

Despite the nickname of us being "scholcommies," a lot of scholarly communication librarians have cognitive dissonance. They want the benefits of communism, but are ideologically wedded to liberalism and capitalism.

I wonder what would compel corporations to do this?
"And it’s time to require enterprises that profit from open knowledge and open research activities to actively invest in and share profits with the communities and infrastructure they depend on."
