Promoção e Implementação da Ciência Aberta no Brasil: resposta ao texto "Ciência Aberta: uma visão desapaixonada"
A resposta da comunidade científica brasileira a um texto de opinião, publicado há duas semanas no site do Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq), com uma versão, na minha opinião, limitada e mesmo distorcida da ciência aberta no Brasil e no mundo.

The results of the Cost-Benefit Analysis of RCAAP - Portugal's Open Access Scientific Repositories were presented at the Open Science: Monitoring Progress, Assessing Impact Conference.

It's not going to stop, till we wise up...

Unfair publisher fees for deposit into repositories highlight the need for authors to exercise their rights https://coar-repositories.org/news-updates/unfair-publisher-fees-for-deposit-into-repositories-highlight-the-need-for-authors-to-exercise-their-rights/

There is growing evidence that transformative agreements and APC based OA is not the way to go.
The research communities, funders, Universities and other RPOs, need to invest in equitative and sustainable models (Diamond OA) and innovative approaches (Publish- Review-Curate, overlay publishing, etc.)
