Read & Publish/transformative agreements =
#Hybrid2.0 bc subscriptions are combined with APCs +
#BigDeal2.0 bc universities are locked into a contract with a publisher that involves a bundle of journals at prices divorced from actual costs. (a thread...)
#BulliedIntoBadScience

Read & Publish/transformative agreements =
worse than previous #Hybrid & #BigDeals bc they ADD a BARRIER: pay to publish AND pay to read. Publishers "promise" they will flip all journals to 100% OA eventually

#BulliedIntoBadScience

Goal of original #Hybrid was to flip all journals to 100% OA. Remember what happened with that? Publishers made much more money off of hybrid & didn't flip. Good for business, bad for academia & the public

Read & Publish/transformative agreements =
a #RacistPolicy (as are hybrid & big deals) bc they discriminate against who can publish research, which widens the gap between the overprivileged & those without access to funding

#Diamond open access (free to publish & free to read) = an #AntiracistPolicy bc it doesn't depend on unequal access to money (for readers/authors). Journals/publishers can still make money, but in other, non-exploitative ways (f1000research.com/articles/6-518…)
#BulliedIntoBadScience

Sharing peer reviewed research doesn't actually cost very much so journals/publishers don't need to make much money (from non-exploitative sources).

Perfect example of #diamondOA #AntiracistPolicy
= @PeerCommunityIn who spent 10k EUR last yr to run 11 PCIs. Researcher-run nonprofit, same peer reviewers you get at journals. No one can say this isn't possible bc we're DOING IT!
