🍂 October is full of opportunities to connect, learn & shape the future of #DiamondOA & #OpenScience! Here’s what’s coming up 🧵👇

Books are essential to scholarly communication — but Open Access books lack the infrastructure and funding they need. DIAMAS is calling for action. 👉 diamas.org/services #DiamondOA, #DIAMASProject

Most institutional publishers in Europe depend on short-term project funding. That means risk for staff, services, and strategy. 👉 See how EDCH services address the gap: Services | EDCH

Diamond OA needs more than enthusiasm — it needs stable financial support. Short-term funding puts essential publishing services at risk. That’s why DIAMAS calls for long-term financial support. 👉 rebrand.ly/d14DIAMAS

Love #OpenScience & #DiamondOA? We’re hiring a Communication Officer 👀 Shape our comms, engage the community, and make a difference. 👉 Details & how to apply: operas-eu.org/edch-communi...

Big news for #DiamondOA! The #EDCH receives a 3-year grant from the Gates Foundation to boost services & build a #community of OA publishers in Europe. 👉 Read more: buff.ly/pxcyTxd

Why do National Capacity Centres (NCCs) matter? Because Diamond OA can’t thrive on fragmented infrastructure. NCCs connect, support, and strengthen local publishing systems.

The EDCH responds to The National Institutes of Health’s Request for Information on Maximizing Research Funds by Limiting Allowable Publishing Costs We welcome the initiative — but warn it misses a key opportunity to support fair & community-driven publishing 🧵👇 #OpenScience #DiamondOA
