Publishers using Janeway to manage scholarly article workflows can now easily connect to OA Switchboard through a new plugin, with development funding contributed by the Max Planck Digital Library.

OA Switchboard is a community-led initiative that simplifies information sharing about open access publications throughout the publication journey. The new plugin seamlessly reports published articles to relevant institutions and funders, increasing visibility to stakeholders, simplifying OA reporting, improving discoverability, and easing integration with other publication systems.

Ádám Dér, Head of Scientific Information Services at the MPDL, says: "We are thrilled to support the development of the OA Switchboard Janeway plug-in. Investing in practical tools that create transparency between publishers, funders, and institutions brings us closer to the Max Planck Society’s vision of a barrier-free scholarly publishing ecosystem and reflects our diversified approach to achieving openness."
