Compact for Open-Access Publishing Equity

Yes.  Many other institutions are stakeholders in the scholarly publishing process as well.  The compact is intended to serve as a statement of university support for a sustainable open-access journal ecology.  Other institutions — such as research institutions, funding agencies, and publishers — may share this goal.  Though it does not make sense to have such institutions as signatories, it does make sense to list them as supporting the goal of the compact.  Consequently, we are happy to list such institutions on the signatory page as compact supporters.  Again, a letter from an appropriate leader at the institution stating their support for the compact on behalf of the institution can be sent to the address provided here.
