       I've been reading up on recent #OpenAccess developments, including proposals for new approaches like #DiamondOA. The discussions are fascinating, and it's increasing clear to me that  Open Access ecosystems are facing a case of what we call (at @openfuture ) the #ParadoxofOpen: OA faces the challenge of value extraction, in this case by the largest academic publishers.It's just as fascinating to see solutions on the table: proposals for alternative publishing models that are more sovereign, civic, community-led. Basically: digital public infrastructures.This recent news feature from Nature is a good starting point:https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-03342-6

       There's one more really interesting angle, in terms of global open movement dynamics and open policies: it turns out that most advanced work on these new approaches to community-led #OA publishing are happening in Latin America.@MelissaHagemann wrote a great piece on this topic for the recently finished Open Access Week, and this quote stands out for me:"The OA movement is at a critical juncture as the troubled APC model, developed in the Global North, is being exported to Latin America and elsewhere around the world".https://www.openaccessweek.org/blog/2023/latin-america-exemplifies-what-can-be-accomplished-when-community-is-prioritized-over-commercialization
