Mountains are not exotic,
Nor a salve for jaded souls.
Let's do profane histories of highlands;
People, and geographies, matter,
As do academic goals.
We hope to be a hub of those wishing to study mountain societies. Website-Archives up soon.

Build a racket so big even nations have to pay: "India will pay a total of about $715 million over 3 years to 30 global publishers, including some of the largest, such as Elsevier, Springer Nature, and Wiley. (AAAS, the publisher of Science, is also part of the deal.)"
India takes out giant nationwide subscription to 13,000 journals
Deal allows scholars to read paywalled articles for free and will cover open-access fees
