just had this convo with my colleage @barbarahissa.bsky.social - we have too many examples of wonderful, open infrastructures that unfortunately are not being used by researchers - how to engage them?
kjsanders.bsky.social Kevin Sanders @kjsanders.bsky.social · Sep 19
I haven't seen too much on author engagement in the discussions around the construction of European Diamond OA infrastructures. I would love to know the organic appetite for all of these services and/or any incentives that are being used to 'drive' their uptake.

The active engagement of universities and other stakeholders is key to achieving a just scholarly publishing ecosystem that is transparent, diverse, affordable, sustainable, technically interoperable, and steered by the research community.

Infographic by the European University Association listing six key considerations for universities: 1. Accelerate the reform of research assessment, 2. Strengthen institutional publishing services and infrastructures, 3. Cooperate and coordinate across the research sector, 4. Critically evaluate expenditure, 5. Support and promote the use of rights retention, 6. Ensure researcher engagement.

💬 #EDCHVoices – What would a logo for #DiamondOA look like?

There’s no shared symbol yet, but as #DiamondOA grows, so does the need for a clear visual identity. Something that reflects its values: #openness, #equity, #collaboration.

Simple? Symbolic? Playful?
👉 Add your voice:
Diamond OA logo
I can’t find an allround usable logo for Diamond Open Access in general. Would it be an idea for the EDCH to have one designed and make it available through Wikimedia Commons?
