SUMMARY:Introducing the Open Journals Collective (OJC) - A community call co-hosted by LPC and LPCET
DESCRIPTION:Date: March 9\, 2026\nTime: 12:00pm – 1:00pm ET \nRegistration \nThe Open Journals Collective (OJC) is an international collective of libraries\, scholarly societies\, and small non-profit publishers working to advance support for diamond open access publishing at no cost to authors or readers.
