Understanding the complexities and nuances of Canada’s non-commercial journal publishing ecosystem is critical if we are to establish a sustainable and open path forward. An ecosystem is, by definition, a community of organisms together with their physical environment. In biology, we consider that “ecosystems with higher biodiversity tend to be more stable with greater resistance and resilience in the face of disturbances, or disruptive events.” Recent research has demonstrated a near absence of commercial publishers in the Canadian context. Rather, journals in Canada look much like a biological ecosystem, and rely on a complex and interrelated community of support, including organizations such as universities, scholarly associations, not-for-profit presses, and academic libraries.

The Partnership for Open Access has been a successful and celebrated model for investing in open access journals since 2014 and has increased the availability of Canadian research worldwide. As we collectively build toward the next phases of this partnership, join us as members of the CRKN and Érudit teams provide an overview of the Partnership for Open Access and the impact made through the contributions of CRKN members, as well as how the partnership aligns with CRKN’s overall OA strategy.
