N2 - We, the undersigned, write on behalf of a growing number of concerned academics who are dismayed at the recent decision by the Australian Research Council (ARC) to rule a number of grant applications across two hallmark schemes ineligible due to references to preprints. Since preprints play a crucial role in the making and dissemination of new knowledge, we are writing to ask the ARC to reconsider their decision. In short, we call on the ARC to ensure the long-term integrity of the grant system through a range of measures.
