One of our reviews editors @heyitsdenisew.bsky.social has a book out! Congratulations Denise!

as a smaller, digital-only journal that is diamond open access and charges no author-processing fees (thanks @openlibhums.org!), we can promise that we will be able to make a decision about your submission much faster than traditional print journals.

We've refreshed out author guidelines for submissions to our journal, including new guidance for anyone looking to submit an interview. We'd love to hear from you! c21.openlibhums.org/site/authorg...

one of the ironies of the push for open access in the uk is that article processing charges mean actual open access publishing is ever more unaffordable and ever more restricted to wealthy institutions, and basically impossible for colleagues between contracts. open indeed!

As part of the @openlibhums.org C21 never charges authors processing charges. One of the many positives of open access publishing
