Just got off a call with the editor-in-chief of a journal that moved from paywall-based publishing with Cambridge University Press to university-hosted independent publishing under a diamond OA model (no APCs) with PKP/OJS.
TL;DR it's going great.
Submissions are up, quality has been maintained, and now over 50% of papers have one or more Global South-based authors (previously ~10%). @OpenAlex data]
💫 "Global collaboration, local production" is finally published!
This #openAccess book describes how sustainable production can be designed, in a comprehensive approach from idea to production, with broad access through an interdisciplinary approach.
Interfacer was made possible thanks to a large common effort, including wonderful dynes like Mihaela Tudorache, @vortex Micol Salomone, @fairback and @jaromil

ROMA VOICES IN HISTORY. A Sourcebook. Volume Editors: Elena Marushiakova
and Vesselin Popov. #Brill#OpenAccess#Book 2021
"This ground-breaking book is an impressively extensive collection of primary historical sources in various languages that reflect the history of the Roma (formerly referred to as ‘Gypsies’ in local languages). The selection of the included materials reflects the authentic voice of the Roma themselves, and presents their visions and the specific goals pursued by the Roma civic emancipation movement. The source materials are published in original and translated in English, and are accompanied by explanatory notes and summarising comments discussing the specific historical realities and their interrelation to the Romani emancipatory movement in Central and Eastern Europe, thus presenting a comprehensive picture of the historical processes."
