Early issues of @AustLitJournal were conference proceedings, were not peer reviewed - you get a sense of the conversations happening in the scholarly community. Also open access, which means high school students can access them #ASAL2020VIRTUAL panel on literary value & journals

Despite this important work by @AustLitJournal, it isn't captured in the metrics. So how do we change the way we value it? How do we shift the conversation away from institutionalised value? #ASAL2020VIRTUAL

Quite overwhelmed by the response to the @MelindaLSmith petition in support of us @uwapublishing that has had 4220 signatories in its first 29 hours. Very heartwarming for all of us. Thank you.
