OA Switchboard
the metadata exchange hub

As an intermediary, the OA Switchboard simplifies the sharing of information between publishers, institutions and funders:
authoritative, timely, aggregated and validated publication metadata. This reduces the transactional cost for stakeholders,
because it is a safe space for publication metadata, as mission-driven, not-for-profit, community-led initiative.
