CORE Welcomes 10 New Members

As part of our ongoing sustainability plan, in December 2022, we launched the CORE Membership program for data providers. CORE is a not-for-profit service dedicated to the open access mission and one of the signatories of the Principles of Open Scholarly Infrastructures POSI. Following the recently announced changes to our status, to remain free for public use, CORE is leveraging a membership model to help sustain its operations.

We are therefore delighted today to announce that, in the very short time since the membership programme has launched, we have already welcomed ten institutions who have made a public and financial commitment to supporting Open Access infrastructure by becoming Supporting or Sustaining members of CORE.

The support of our members is vital in ensuring the sustainability of the CORE service and we value their participation greatly and are immensely grateful for their help. Members receive public recognition for their support and are also invited to join the Board of Supporters, which meets bi-annually and helps shape the future roadmap for CORE. Only by listening to the community can we best serve its needs.

We thank our new members again, and appeal to other institutions to follow their lead. By joining the membership program, you will help us to continue to grow and serve the scholarly community with high-quality Open Access research literature. Together, we can build a stronger, more open scholarly infrastructure that supports the advancement of science and knowledge for all.
