Rosie Higman speaks about LSE's #OAfund and how authors can apply to it - there's broad acknowledgement over the high cost of #BPCs and that #GoldOA for #longform is #inequitable - should HEIs be more transparent about any caps they place on paying for BPCs? #RLUK26
Geoffrey Khan now presents a view of how #openaccess for #longform supports #bibliodiversity & the preservation of endangered heritage by enabling the publication & reading of works by authors from the Global Majority including those who lack the means to pay for #GoldOA #RLUK26
He also states that #OA for #longform is too expensive and inequitable if it follows a #paytopublish format like BPCs #GoldOA and that the Infrastructure is too expensive - might be ignoring #DiamondOA and collective-funding models a bit there! #RLUK26
Sigh.... #Incentives #GoldOA

@ismaelrafols.bsky.social " #DEI is not a silver bullet. Means diff things in diff contexts and need to be developed appropriately. #OpenAccess ? - when we call #GoldOA, should this be considered #OpenScience?" This is an important question.
#OSMonitoring2025
Given that #GoldOA often means paying (APCs), #DiamondOA means no fees for author nor reader, it’s obvious that Diamond is better.
With the misappropriation of the term #GoldStandard by the WH, I think it’s time to start calling CCSD(T) the Diamond Standard

@meagan-g-phelan.bsky.social @aaas.org: 1 Gold OA journal and the other 5 enable #greenOA - APCs impact both access to pub and quality
#GoldOA routes are expensive! Article & Book Processing Charges are only affordable to a minority of well-funded researchers or institutions that tend to be in the global north - this means a lack of equitable access to OA & a lack of diversity in OA outputs #beyondpaywalls
