The final issue cultural studies review

Only a couple of years ago, proud of becoming a Diamond Open Access e-journal published under a Creative Commons license we wrote to our Editorial Board members; Generally, the Journal is going from strength to strength. Because that funding is not sufficient, over the last little while, we sought financial support from Western Sydney University, the University of Western Australia, the University of Queensland, The University of Wollongong and a prestigious university in our region. Despite strong endorsement from Editorial Board members at those institutions, support for which we're very grateful, we have not been able to secure adequate, new sources of financial support. [...]academics in the humanities and social sciences often believe that they do not pay for journal publication because the costs are not distributed at the department or program level but hidden in central library budgets.
