[GOAL] Musings from the COASP 2018 conference (and another blog about Plan S)

[Danny Kingsley]

<Apologies for cross posting>

Dear all,

Last week, the 10th Conference of the Open Access Publishing Association<https://oaspa.org/conference/coasp-2018-program/> was held in Vienna. Much was covered over the two and a half days. A decade in, this conference considered the state of the open access (OA) movement, discussed different approaches to OA, considered inequity and the infrastructure required to meet this need and argued about language.

I have written two blogs – one that summarises my takeaways from the conference:

  *   Ten years on and where are we at?  COASP 2018<https://unlockingresearch-blog.lib.cam.ac.uk/?p=2168> - https://unlockingresearch-blog.lib.cam.ac.uk/?p=2168

Separately I have posted the discussion that occurred with Robert-Jan Smits at the conference on Plan S:


  *   The Plan S conversation continues<https://unlockingresearch-blog.lib.cam.ac.uk/?p=2163> - https://unlockingresearch-blog.lib.cam.ac.uk/?p=2163

Enjoy.
