Against the backdrop of the commercialization of global academic resources andunbalanced regional development, barriers to knowledge access have been increasingly high, with researchers in remote areas often excluded from the scientific frontier due to high literature costs or scarce resources. The National Science Library, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with dozens of institutions worldwide, has innovatively launched PubScholar, a public-interest academic platform. Adhering to the core philosophy of "Joint Consultation, Co-construction and SharedBenefits", the platform builds open science infrastructure, serving as a practicalmodel to reshape the global academic ecosystem and promoting the construction ofa community with a shared future in cyberspace.
