Study Report on the Swiss Diamond Open Access Landscape Published
From March to September 2022, the project "Platinum Open Access Funding" (PLATO), in collaboration with the Institute for Applied Data Science & Finance at the Bern University of Applied Sciences, conducted a study on Diamond Open Access journals in Switzerland, their workflows, the infrastructures they use, their business models, opportunities and challenges.
The results of this study have now been published in the form of a report and a data set. For the first time, they provide an insight into the Diamond Open Access landscape in Switzerland and form the basis for the development of sustainable funding strategies as part of the PLATO project, which will run as a cooperation between six Swiss universities until the end of 2024.
