Openscapes is at the White House this week! We're so thrilled to see our colleagues recognized that we had to boost this signal!

Congratulate them and hear more at their community call next week: https://openscapes.org/events/2024-09-26-openscapes-whitehouse/

I'm all for a move away from a focus on for-profit and non-inclusive models, towards a publishing landscape that fully includes institute- and community-driven #OpenAccess.

I therefore signed this petition, and I hope you would consider doing the same if you're based at a Dutch institute :)

From Nicholas Agar: "Science would continue as before without [the journal 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦]. The same conclusion applies doubly to publishing in the humanities. Philosophers will always philosophise, even if there are no overpriced journals to publish in. It’s worth pointing this out next time there is an increase in the #rent paid for scholarship. Under capitalism, there’s no “enough” switch on the #profits from academic #publishing."
