This is how to convert from a for-profit Big Deal to an equitable, but professionalised, diamond OA system!
@theblochian.bsky.social and I dreamed of this scale when we launched @openlibhums.org Now, she has done it. Consortial funding, at scale.
Now over to the library community to support it.

Fantastic news! 👏 👏
If you care about the future of community-led diamond open access publishing, this is well worth a look. OJC is an important step towards mainstreaming #diamondOA and making it the norm rather than the exception.
