This pledge organized by the Free Our Knowledge coalition is aimed at researchers in cognitive science (neuroscience, philosophy, computer science, linguistics and other relevant disciplines) who want to tackle systemic inequalities embedded in academic publishing. By signing this pledge, you commit to publishing at least one scholarly work in a Diamond open access outlet within a five-year period.

The Diamond Discovery Hub will be a comprehensive directory of Diamond Open Access Journals across Europe. The journals presented in the directory are curated by an editorial team to ensure that they meet the six operational criteria: persistent identifier, scholarly journal, Open Access, no fees, open to all authors and community-owned.

This guide has been written for all journal editors (in the Netherlands and beyond) who are uncomfortable with commercial publishers' hold on their journals and would like to transition to a Diamond Open Access publication model. 

Read this portfolio to learn more about Diamond OA in the Netherlands, the opinion of editors running Diamond OA journals and which services you can use for Diamond OA publishing.
