The new and updated website for the Radical Open A<\/span>ccess Collective website has now officially been launched!<\/span><\/p>\n

https:\/\/radicaloa.co.uk<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Formed in 2015, the Radical OA Collective is a community of scholar-led, not-for-profit presses, journals and other open access projects in the humanities and social sciences. We represent an alternative open access ecosystem and seek to create a different future for open access, one based on experimenting with not-for-profit, scholar-led approaches to publishing. You can read more about the philosophy behind the collective here:<\/span> https:\/\/radicaloa.co.uk\/philosophy\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

As a collective, we offer mutual reliance and support for each other\u2019s projects by sharing the knowledge and resources we have acquired. <\/span>Through our <\/span>projects<\/span><\/a> we also aim to provide advice, support and encouragement to academics and other not-for-profit entities interested in setting up their own publishing initiatives<\/span>. The current website contains a <\/span>Directory<\/span><\/a> of academic-led presses, which showcases the breadth and rich diversity in scholar-led presses currently operating in an international context and across numerous fields, and an <\/span>Information Portal<\/span><\/a> with links to resources on funding opportunities for open access books, open source publishing tools, guidelines on editing standards, ethical publishing and diversity in publishing, and OA literature useful to not-for-profit publishing endeavours. We will be further developing this into a toolkit for open access publishing in order to encourage and support others to start their own publishing projects. If you run a not-for-profit OA publishing initiative or are interested in starting your own scholar-led publishing project, we encourage you to join the <\/span>Radical OA mailing list<\/span><\/a> and get involved with the discussion!<\/span><\/p>\n

Please do <\/span>get in touch<\/span><\/a> if you would like further information on the project or would like your publishing project to be involved.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
