• Is there something we could do to revitalize the Nordic co-operation around Open Access? Do we want continue with NOAF - or do something else?
  • There were regular NOAF meetings in 2012-2017, but there have been no meetings in the last couple of years
  • The Nordic licensing consortia have their own network, and there are probably other types of co-opeation as well
