Twelve years ago, a 2 a.m. email kickstarted the Open Access Button, OA.Work’s first scrappy attempt at making Open Access easier and more equitable. To mark this milestone, I wanted to share some of what we’re celebrating on this birthday, including some of the team’s recent achievements, where we are today, and the fact that our days now end at more humane hours… though my newborn hasn’t quite received the memo yet.

Articles of Governance set the rules for how organizations like ours are run, and so, despite the unusual name, they’re critical to understand. Today, we’re sharing ours with the community as we deepen our commitment to building open-source, values-driven, non-profit tools for the long term.

In 2022, our focus was on building OA.Report (a blog on that coming soon! Join our mailing list to be notified).

So, without further ado: Our governance got an update as we joined Code for Science & Society (a US-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit), and our new advisory committee got to work.
