Hi all,

Since preprints can be hard to discover sometimes, I wanted to alert you to
a preprint we just posted about OA.  It is the largest, most comprehensive
analysis ever to predict the future of Open Access.  *Given existing
trends, we estimate that by 2025:*

   - *44% of all journal articles will be available as OA*
   - *70% of all article views will be to OA articles*

We've got a few blog posts up summarizing and highlighting the findings:
https://blog.ourresearch.org/future-of-oa/ (links to more at bottom of
first post), and here's the citation:

Piwowar, Priem, Orr (2019) The Future of OA: A large-scale analysis
projecting Open Access publication and readership. bioRxiv:
https://doi.org/10.1101/795310


Love to hear your feedback!
Heather
