The Journal of Electronic Publishing has a special issue on OA in the humanities. It looks great! On a vanity note, I get a fair few citations... And I wrote/founded the software that hosts the journal 😊 journals.publishing.umich.edu/jep/issue/45...

I guess what's behind it is the fact that though the work is hard and takes a lot of time, things are happening and being made possible. In a context where people feel disempowered and demotivated, the Lower Deck has shown community-led open access is an energising force in academia.

One of the things I've loved about #JanewayOA26 is the collective sense of shared motivation and sense of purpose- a type of hopeful optimism that remains deeply critical and evidence-based. I've typed 'yay' and 'awesome' a lot, and I haven't been the only one.

I wrote the blog post behind our new Robin Hood @openlibhums.org poster! In it, I reflect on why divesting scholarly publishing from commercial interests and redirecting library budgets into #diamondOA is so urgent. Read it (and grab the poster!) here: www.openlibhums.org/news/932/ #UKSG2026
A vintage-style “Wanted” poster featuring Robin Hood–themed characters posing as a diverse band of archers and scholars. The text reads: “Join the fight to make knowledge free. Divest from commercial academic publishing and join the Open Library of Humanities.
