In recent years, #SciPost has grown into an essential open science infrastructure.

Our sustainability is however under threat.

Only 147 out of 1351 (a mere 11%) benefitting organizations have supported us.

This ongoing level of freeriding means we are now at a crossroads.

Academic organizations urgently need to change tack and fulfil their promise to sustainably support scientists-led, not-for-profit publishing infrastructure.

Help us convince them to support us.

#Introduction I'm professor of #Physics (condensed matter; low-dimensional quantum systems) at the University of Amsterdam.

With this account, I'll be tooting about #SciPost and its efforts to implement #GenuineOpenAccess, i.e. a more accessible, equitable and affordable #OpenAccess infrastructure for #AcademicPublishing.
