Objective
The project brings together 23 European organizations, from 12 countries, that will map out the landscape of Diamond Open Access publishing in the European Research Area and develop common standards, guidelines and practices for the Diamond publishing sector. The project partners will also formulate recommendations for research institutions to coordinate sustainable support for Diamond publishing activities across Europe. The term Diamond Open Access refers to publications that are freely accessible to all, without requiring either a subscription from readers or publication costs from authors, as is the case with Gold Open Access. The aim with regard to Open Access is to achieve as much Diamond Access as possible, and the DIAMAS project will make a major contribution in this direction.
