DOACH and CoDOA are two new initiatives that support Diamond Open Access in Switzerland. DOACH is the Swiss National Capacity Center offering information and resources for a variety of DOA practitioners; CoDOA offers Swiss academic libraries a consortial funding pathway to financially support DOA journals that are embedded in Swiss research communities.
For this online launch event, we are delighted to welcome Johan Rooryck (@johanrooryck) from the European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH) and Agata Morka from Open Research Europe (ORE)/CERN. Both will contribute their perspectives on current developments in Diamond Open Access in Switzerland and Europe.
The event itself will be in three parts: Following two short presentations of DOACH and CoDOA, our guests will give their brief inputs, which will be followed by questions and discussion.
