Abstract

OSI’s 2019 work focused on building a bridge to 2020—continuing our pivot from being an organization focused on understanding facts and perspectives, to one poised to pursue a significant, global reform agenda. This is a challenge for any group—doubly so for a group like OSI at the pioneering edge of a nebulous field, while also trying to maintain a republic format where all participants are co-equal leaders. OSI’s strategy in 2019 focused primarily on these three agenda items:

1. Find sustainable financing.

2. Help coordinate the construction of a new global roadmap for open.

3. Prepare for and start work on OSI’s January 2020 to-do list.

The three main goals of OSI are to: 1) build a sustainable, robust framework for global communication and cooperation on shaping the future of scholarly communication 2) support a climate for finding common understanding and workable solutions, and 3) help this stakeholder community move toward these solutions together.
