Sufyan bin Uzayr and I just created a list of major initiatives for #Diamond #OpenAccess in the #OpenAccessDirectory (#OAD).

Thanks to Sufyan bin Uzayr for enlarging and updating the #OpenAccessDirectory (#OAD) list of Declarations in support of #OpenAccess.

All OAD lists are #crowdsourced. If you'd like to help make any of them more comprehensive and up to date, here's how to get started.

Thanks to Sufyan bin Uzayr for enlarging and updating the #OpenAccessDirectory (#OAD) list of #advocacy organizations for #OpenAccess.

Like all OAD lists, this one is #crowdsourced. Here's how to help make any of the OAD lists more comprehensive and up to date.

Today the editorial board of _Mathematical Logic Quarterly_ (pub'd by #Wiley) resigned and launched a new #DiamondOA journal on the same topics.

See the open letter announcing their resignations and plans for the new journal.

The new journal has a German title but will publish in English, _Zeitschrift für Mathematische Logik und Grundlagen der Mathematik_.

I track these journal "declarations of independence" in the #OpenAccessDirectory (#OAD), and just added an entry for this one, at the bottom in chronological order.

I also track them — and discussions of them — in the Open Access Tracking Project (#OATP, @oatp).

The Open Access Directory (#OAD) is looking for a co-editor. Please spread the word.

I'm an OAD co-founder and serve on the editorial board. I look forward to working with the new person.

The OAD is a crowdsourced reference work on #OpenAccess, launched in 2008.

The editorial board of the 52-yr old _Journal of Human Evolution_ just resigned to protest #Elsevier's interference with editorial practices, reducing journal quality, and insistence on a high #APC ($3990), reducing its affordability to authors in the field. "We all care deeply about the journal, our discipline, and our academic community; however, we find we can no longer work with Elsevier in good conscience."

There's no sign yet that the editors will launch a new #OpenAccess journal somewhere else. So I've not yet added it to the #OAD list of journal #DeclarationsOfIndependence
