This is big. No #embargoes. No #APCs. "The #EU is ready to agree that immediate #OpenAccess to…publicly funded research should become the norm, w/o authors having to pay fees & that the bloc should support #nonprofit scholarly publishing models." researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-europe…

All NeuroImage and NeuroImage:Reports editors have resigned over the high publication fee, and are starting a new non-profit journal imaging-neuroscience.org This comes with great regret, and a huge amount of thought and discussion- please read announcement to get more details.

📢 Hot off the press! Our new paper "Diachronic change and variation in use: Judgments of clitic doubling in Peninsular vs. Rioplatense Spanish" is available online in @Isogloss_! revistes.uab.cat/isogloss/artic…
