From CRKN:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Canadian Research Knowledge Network (CRKN) and \u00c9rudit are pleased to announce the renewal of their Partnership for Open Access (POA) for an additional two-year period. This extension will serve as a transition period to a new long-term partnership agreement planned for 2025 and will allow our organizations to build towards a ground-breaking reimagining of the Canadian open access landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Partnership for Open Access (POA) is a collective model for providing ongoing financial support to the Canadian scholarly journals disseminated on the erudit.org platform. As part of the movement to transform scholarly publishing, the POA brings together libraries and journals to build a sustainable open access (OA) environment in Canada. The partnership between CRKN and \u00c9rudit was created in 2014 to provide support for Canadian journals and to increase OA for scholarly publications, particularly in the social sciences and humanities. CRKN and \u00c9rudit extended the agreement in 2017 following the launch of\u00a0Coalition Publica<\/a>, and in 2018 entered an historic five-year agreement which focused on adding English and bilingual journals to the \u00c9rudit platform, transitioning journals to open access, strengthening governance, and developing the POA internationally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
