Public

to any academics who want their work to outlast their current hype cycle, the next publisher downsizing, or government book burning:

make your work available for free.
as a PDF or HTML document (or, fine, JATS)
from a URL that requires no login or javascript to access.

having your work only available behind some heinous publisher paywall or 'enhanced reader' is a straightforward statement that you don't care about your work being part of the shared pursuit of human understanding. it is, in fact, your job to make sure that your work available.

sincerely, someone trying to preserve your work.
