Para los amantes de los números.

Sabéis cuánto ha pagado España entre 2015 y 2018 en Gold #OpenAccess (#APC's = por encima de los gastos de suscripciones que pagan las bibliotecas)?

💲20,6 millones 💰

Aquí desglosado para cada una de las 5 grandes editoriales:

Hace poco, recibimos un intrigante correo electrónico en la revista de @PsicologicaJ.

El asunto decía: "Journal Acquisition Proposal".

Esto abrió la puerta a un mundo poco conocido: las adquisiciones de revistas académicas. 📚🤔

Our poster for the #DiamondOASummit in #Toluca showcases a sustainable route towards #DiamondOA, leveraging the existing infrastructure of Institutional Repositories.

Also check our letter to @Nature and let us know your thoughts!

Repositories are and should always be free for researchers to access and deposit their work!!!
See COAR’s full response to the American Chemical Society’s completely unjustifiable fee for repository deposit https://t.co/ZEift2PZd4 #OAWeek23

We've been talking about the problem for too long. It's time for solutions.

Our recent letter to Nature shows how to replace commercial publishers with Institutional Repositories for free #OpenAccess and #AcademicInnovation.

El tema de #OAWeek 'Community over Commercialization' resalta la necesidad de ofrecer alternativas sostenibles a las editoriales comerciales.

Gracias a @rebiun por invitarme a hablar sobre la importancia del proceso de revisión por pares en este camino.

La naturaleza es sabia porque construye sobre lo que ya existe.

Tenemos bibliotecas, repositorios y sociedades académicas.

No necesitamos nada más para revolucionar la comunicación académica.

This is clearly an attempt to normalize charging authors a fee for something that can easily be done for free. The idea of charging an author a deposit charge for uploading a file is outrageous. @AmerChemSociety members - are you *really* ok with this??? https://t.co/cn6LHi2Zd6

IMPORTANTLY:

Knowledge stays at the institutions where it was created using public funding.

This is in line with recent recommendations by the European Council for open, equitable and sustainable publishing.

HOWEVER:

There is no need to reinvent the wheel!!!

All the necessary infrastructure is already there: Open acess, public, institutional repositoires.
