The question of how to sustain open infrastructure is a perennial one. @doaj.bsky.social has launched a premium metadata service. Those organisations that make large-scale commercial use of DOAJ’s metadata services will now directly contribute to DOAJ's sustainability
Explaining Green Open Access can be tricky — but we’ve got a new resource to help. A simple guide that explains what Green Open Access is and the difference between types of repositories. Take a look and feel free to reuse it in your own Open Access support. bit.ly/47f1fnm
