I very much welcome and support today's launch of 'Plan S' and #cOAlitionS - a coalition of national research funders, w/ European Commission's support - who have committed to accelerate the transition to open access of scientific publications. #OpenScience ⇢ europa.eu/!hw84rX

As of 1 Jan 2020 no science should be locked behind paywalls! Read the editorial by Science Europe President Marc Schiltz published today on the release of #PlanS and set up of #cOAlitionS #OpenAccess #OA fron.tiers.in/go/zuwn6n

It's 15 years since the Berlin Declaration & #OpenAccess is still far from being a reality. This is why research funders launch #cOAlitionS scieur.org/coalition-s cc Marc Schiltz

Though there are details that need working out - as @petersuber has highlighted - the bigger picture should not be overlooked — namely a group of national funders have agreed a set of principles to advance #openaccess #PlanS

@Researchkuster PLOS Frontiers We are proud to support #cOAlitionS on its mission to lead the transition to a world where access to research is free and open to all.
