SUMMARY:How Does the Story End? Best Practices in Closing Down a Scholar-le
 d Diamond OA Journal (online)
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, the development of best practices in scholar-
 led Diamond Open Access saw much information collected in the form of guid
 elines and published handouts on how best to operate a scholar-led journal
 . The focus in this supporting material lies mostly on the start and runni
 ng of a journal\; there is little guidance on how best to close one down. 
 \\r\\n\\r\\nThis talk addresses this question. How can editors and hosting
  services best prepare for the end of their journal\, what timeframe makes
  sense\, what communication steps need to be taken and how can hosting ser
 vices best collaborate with editors during this process. \\r\\n\\r\\nThe t
 alk is based on the experience of Bern Open Publishing\, which currently h
 osts 23 scholar-led Diamond Open Access journals. The BOP Team sent a surv
 ey to the editors about their needs and exit strategies\; at the same time
 \, BOP sketched out the technical and administrative parameters of the pro
 cess from the hosting side. This includes checking the legal as well as th
 e administrative\, communicative and technical requirements for wrapping u
 p a journal’s publishing activities on BOP.  \\r\\n\\r\\nThe talk is int
 ended to stimulate a discussion with editorial boards and to collect furth
 er input for best practices when we need to manage the end of a Diamond OA
  journal.
