| Disciplinary Open Access: 10 years of SCOAP3 |
| In 2024, the Sponsoring Consortium for Open Access Publishing in Particle Physics (SCOAP3) – a global collective action of over 3,000 participating libraries, research institutions and funding agencies – will celebrate a decade of delivering equitable, global, open access for the field of high energy physics. This presentation will describe how SCOAP3 has sustained discipline-wide OA through a spirit of global collaboration, and provide key insights and lessons that can inform future strategies for supporting open access publishing. As SCOAP3 enters its next decade, it will describe how the initiative aims to continue to innovate to shape the future of open access. |

| Open access in Latin America: the challenge of a sustainable publishing model |
| Publishing models are being increasingly discussed, especially considering that publishing practices are not equal around the world. There are ongoing discussions on how to implement equitable and sustainable access to scientific content, both for readers and authors. Diamond open access has been widely adopted in Latin America, where the majority of journals are published within public universities, through public funds. But how can these journals sustainably advance their missions and still be competitive, when prevalent evaluation models do not value local journals, and the number of international journals is growing exponentially? |
