Discussion
Joint library funding for #DiamondOpenAccess journals can be organised through library consortia like #OLEcon or @oa_koala. Find Fabian Hennig's KOALA poster from @tibhannover at #craft_oa2025

But most importantly: If you work in an academic library, please consider participating in these collective funding schemes to safeguard Diamond journals, sustainability, and independence. (see links in this thread)
