New from the Ivy Plus Library Confederation (#IPLC): "The 13 Ivy Plus #libraries are both surprised by and united in opposition to the zero embargo option announced by the American Chemical Society (#ACS)…This unexpected new [Article Development Charge, #ADC] is a clear challenge to both authors’ rights and the developing scholarly communications ecosystem…The new ADC charge proposed by the ACS is objectionable on many levels…"

If public access to research outputs is achieved via a pay-to-publish model, we will have squandered an opportunity to promote #equity in scholarly communication."
Thank-you to the #IPLC #library directors for this strong statement in support of the White House #OSTP #OpenAccess policy initiative.

"Implementing the #NelsonMemo via an #APC model is antithetical to the equity goals so clearly articulated in the guidance memo and the values of our institutions."

On behalf of all 13 Ivy Plus libraries, we write to express our strong support for the updated policy guidance issued by the White House Office of Science & Technology Policy (OSTP) […]
