"We’re entering uncertain times; a chaotic transition is coming as universities shift away from commercial models to cheaper, more sustainable, non-profit alternatives. As with any publishing revolution, there will be winners and losers."
Opinion: Chaos is coming for scholarly publishing.
Buckling of commercial models alongside maturing of community-led efforts promises major shifts, says Caroline Edwards (@theblochian.bsky.social).
