Each year, [Openjournals brings](https://openjournals.nl/en/) together members of its journal editorial boards for a dedicated Users’ Day. This year, the event is open for everyone in the Diamond Open Access scholarly community!

During the day, participants can meet and discuss various aspects of publishing a Diamond Open Access journal. This year’s event will take place on **Wednesday, June 3** , at the beautiful Trippenhuis in Amsterdam.

Participants will share experiences, practical insights, and challenges, with ample time for open discussion.

The Network and Users’ Day is designed as a collaborative and engaging space for editorial teams and the broader DOA community to connect, exchange knowledge, and learn from one another. Previous editions have been both valuable and enjoyable, and we look forward to welcoming many of you for another inspiring day.
