*Latin America has historically led a firm and rising Open Access movement
and represents the worldwide region with larger adoption of Open Access
practices. Argentina has recently expressed its commitment to join Plan S,
an initiative from a European consortium of research funders oriented to
mandate Open Access publishing of scientific outputs. Here we suggest that
the potential adhesion of Argentina or other Latin American nations to Plan
S, even in its recently revised version, ignores the reality and tradition
of Latin American Open Access publishing, and has still to demonstrate that
it will encourage at a regional and global level the advancement of
non-commercial Open Access initiatives.*
