Abstract

Born in 2008 with three HSS journals, the epublishing platform of the University of Milan (Riviste UniMI) is the biggest diamond open access platform in Italy with 42 journals. This presentation discusses the platform growth, the business model (platform managing, costs, workflow), and ongoing and future developments. Migration from OJS2 to OJS3 will be also discussed. The most significant data on the use of the platform and its indexing and dissemination will be presented.
