Academics, publishers, and non-profits unite to deliver diamond open access journals peeer.net/2025/10/20/a... #BetterPublishing

Scientific publishing is dominated by profit-driven models that harm academic communities. A German working group proposes a Diamond OA system, run by academic societies and publicly funded, to create a more inclusive and sustainable publishing ecosystem: peeer.net/2025/10/14/w... #BetterPublishing

Science deserves better than profit-driven publishing. Change starts from within the community — here’s how we can reclaim it: peeer.net/2025/08/18/r... #BetterPublishing

Scientific societies should rethink allowing for‑profit publishers at meetings. They may support the meeting in part, but these same publishers charge unsustainable fees year‑round and undercut academic independence. The trade‑off? Researchers lose. peeer.net/2025/08/04/t...

Do we outsource research conferences at our peril? For‑profit event firms reduce our effort, but fees are high and returns to academia low. Would not-for-profit society-organized meetings held at universities benefit the academic community more? peeer.net/2025/08/04/t...

Another addition to the growing list of mass editorial resignations: editors of a math journal resign and launch a diamond open-access journal ‘free from pressure or influence’. Check out our latest post at peeer.net/2025/07/31/r.... #BetterPublishing
