Congratulations to a Faculty Committee at the University of Rhode Island for calling for the closure of the university's #OpenAccess Fund which supports APCs. The Committee argues that "rather than covering APC expenses of a small number of URI faculty, OA Fund resources should be redirected toward efforts that will have greater impact."

These actions align with the #BOAI20 Recommendations to move away from APCs.
