Hospitality students operating a cake stall right below the Tuwhera office - of course we couldn't resist!!!! Chocolate croissant, brownies, sponge cake, cookies and cinnamon buns!

Supporting the efforts of our fellow Green OA supporters in Australasia doi.org/10.1177/0340...! We feel a zombie-fest is in order here!

The Tuwhera team helped plan this course so we highly recommend checking it out- especially the rights retention section that we were specifically involved in! 😁

Tuwhera felt privileged to be asked to write this piece about the importance of Diamond open access for DOAJ. I'd also like to emphasise how challenging it was to get a photo of all of us where somebody wasn't blinking!!!!!

The Tuwhera team are excited to be on the OA Australasia planning committee for this year's OA Week events. While this is not a great time of year for the Southern Hemisphere - it's a great theme and the committee is buzzing with ideas! #OAWeek

With open access conferences happening on the other side of the globe, we thought we'd celebrate OA in the lands down under with a link to the OA Toolkit for Aotearoa NZ Researchers. While only a basic tool, it's completely customisable for individual institutions oaaustralasia.org/open-access-...

Even though some of the Tuwhera team have questionable singing ability - we also enjoy getting involved in lunchtime kapa haka. Toia Mai - as seen here is our favourite! youtu.be/aZS_B8ZtIEo?...

The Pacific Journal of Technology Enhanced Learning published their latest issue earlier this month - the proceedings of the Symposium of Technology Enhanced Learning ojs.aut.ac.nz/pjtel/. Covering teaching tools from AI through to 3D reconstruction, games and VR!

Tuwhera also hosts conference proceedings, the latest being 31th International Conference on Neural Information Processing (ICONIP) abstracts. As we use OJS, we submit the DOIs manually so that the metadata is for a conference, not a journal! ojs.aut.ac.nz/iconip24/2

Applied Finance Letters approaches publishing via a continuous publication model as to promptly publish submitted articles.
