Transformative Agreements, Funders and the Publishing Ecosystem: a Lack of Focus on Equity - The Scholarly Kitchen

pbmarkin's bookmarks 2020-12-16

Summary:

funders, be they national or private, should consider directly funding their field through funding societies and institutions, with a focus on equitable distribution of funds across scholarly communities. Such an approach would temper the impact of the new status quo — the inexorable rise of the transformative agreement, which systematically disadvantages scholars at less wealthy institutions.
