OUR ORGANIZATIONAL VALUES

The PKP team works to honor and expand people’s right to know through research and scholarship, even as we recognize that these are not the only forms that knowledge takes. We continue to explore and develop innovations in scholarly publishing that will ensure, if not increase, the rigor and integrity of research. We participate with industry organizations in the setting of scholarly standards. 

PKP is building an organization in which everyone is able to bring their full selves to this work, knowing that they’ll be heard, championed, and supported to succeed. We seek to bring together diversity in race, age, physical and mental ability, sexuality, gender identity, ethnicity, perspectives, and ideas.

Working groups of staff and community members come together to address important topics and goals. The Accessibility Interest Group, for example, has recently reviewed and improved the accessibility of PKP software for all users. The Documentation Interest Group creates and improves the many guides that have been developed to assist those using PKP software. Other areas are under consideration. Feel free to reach out to us through our Contact Form to be a part of this work.
