Abstract
A joint webinar of the Library Publishing Coalition and the IFLA Library Publishing SIG on the groundbreaking European Open Access projects, DIAMAS, CRAFT-OA, and PALOMERA, held on Tuesday, 19 November 2024.
The DIAMAS project focuses on institutional Diamond Open Access publishing that is free to read and free to publish. It aims to define the Diamond OA publishing landscape in the European Research Area (ERA) and to support it through the development of standards and toolkits. Pierre Mounier (OPERAS) provided an overview of DIAMAS.
CRAFT-OA (Creating a Robust Accessible Federated Technology for Open Access) aims to make the Open Access landscape more resilient by centralizing expertise, collaboration and a joint visibility/indexing layer. Margo Bargheer offered insights into CRAFT-OA.
PALOMERA (Policy Alignment of Open Access Monographs in the European Research Area) focuses on OA books, and it seeks to create actionable recommendations to ensure that OA monographs are included in OA Funders' policies. Niels Stern provided an overview of this important project.
