We study spectral stability of small amplitude periodic traveling waves of the Ostrovsky equation. We prove that these waves exhibit spectral instabilities arising from a collision of pair of non-zero eigenvalues on the imaginary axis when subjected to square integrable perturbations on the whole real line. We also list all such collisions between pair of eigenvalues on the imaginary axis and do a Krein signature analysis.
