Great new post on @UpstreamBlog on scholarly infrastructure from a Latin America perspective. Check it out!
New post by Carolina Tanigushi and @gabioshka on Upstream! "Opposite to what happens in the Global North, in Latin America open access is not an “alternative” model but has long been mainstream. We have a long-term history of Open Access without APCs" upstream.force11.org/

Thankful for the opportunity to share my thoughts on the @WHOSTP memo on public access to research outputs on the @UpstreamBlog. It's rare outside of Twitter I get to write as my authentic self 😆. #OpenAccess #AcademicPublishing #OpenScience #Knowledge
Some choice words from @ashleydfarley in response to the @WHOSTP incl. deserved praise for OA advocates, thoughts on implications for the research system, and calls to action for us all. upstream.force11.org/hot-mem…

The @UpstreamBlog has had a facelift! Now it's even easier to navigate the content AND to comment. Start a conversation and please reach out to me or email [email protected] to propose a topic; it's open for all voices to be authors.
Upstream is for everyone. It's started small but we've had contributions from some key people on important topics. Maybe YOU too! If you're working on something open research-y then let us be the place to express and share your views and data.
