Interesting - but isn’t the fundamental problem that there are too many papers driven by a system largely driven by the commercial publishers aiming to maximise profit ahead of the integrity of scholarly comms?

I wrote a thing... I'm anxious the narrative is not about the funding crisis in HE. These things were always bad. Tough times call for tough choices and when people are being laid off all over the place, IMO, this isn't that tough a choice. If it was just me, I would have cancelled ages ago

Yep. We have been out of contract with Elsevier at MIT for 4.5 years now, at substantial savings to the Institute. Happy to share our experience with any library interested in following suit.

Looking forward to contributing to the review process and to what promise to be another great conference @libereurope.bsky.social
