The upbeat text conjures up a healthy image: a rigorous restructuring had saved an ailing organization. Following a dire diagnosis, AUP achieved a great “track record” and “international visibility” and was “stable and growing.” “A good moment” presented itself to let AUP direct its own destiny, a “long-cherished dream” of its new owner, whose “network in the sector” reassured UvA Ventures Holding B.V., the company through which the UvA formally owned AUP, of the press’s bright future." - <small><a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></small></li></ul></p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/tag/no_tag">no_tag</a></p><p><strong>by:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></p></description> <pubDate>Thu, 29 Aug 2019 07:56:38 -0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Debattartikel EN – Plan S Protest</title> <link>http://plansprotest.se/debattartikel-en/</link> <description><p><strong>Comments:</strong><ul><li>"Leading Swedish researchers appeal to research councils: Withdraw support for Plan S<br /><br />" - <small><a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></small></li></ul></p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/tag/no_tag">no_tag</a></p><p><strong>by:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></p></description> <pubDate>Wed, 27 Feb 2019 18:21:10 -0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Peer-reviewed publishing of results from Citizen Science projects</title> <link>https://jcom.sissa.it/archive/17/03/JCOM_1703_2018_L01</link> <description><p><strong>Comments:</strong><ul><li>"Citizen science (CS) terms the active participation of the general public in scientific research activities. With increasing amounts of information generated by citizen scientists, best practices to go beyond science communication and publish these findings to the scientific community are needed. This letter is a synopsis of authors' personal experiences when publishing results from citizen science projects in peer-reviewed journals, as presented at the Austrian Citizen Science Conference 2018. Here, we address authors' selection criteria for publishing CS data in open-access, peer-reviewed scientific journals as well as barriers encountered during the publishing process. We also outline factors that influence the probability of publication using CS data, including 1) funding to cover publication costs; 2) quality, quantity and scientific novelty of CS data; 3) recommendations to acknowledge contributions of citizen scientists in scientific, peer-reviewed publications; 4) citizen scientists' preference of the hands-on experience over the product (publication) and 5) bias among scientists for certain data sources and the scientific jargon. These experiences show that addressing these barriers could greatly increase the rate of CS data included in scientific publications." - <small><a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></small></li></ul></p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/tag/no_tag">no_tag</a></p><p><strong>by:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></p></description> <pubDate>Tue, 20 Nov 2018 13:17:26 -0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Tom Forth sur Twitter : "This is so good.

In a statement, the group said it will no longer allow the 6- or 12-month delays that many subscription journals now require before a paper is made OA, and it won't allow publication in so-called hybrid journals, which charge subscriptions but also make individual papers OA for an extra fee. <br /><br />" - <small><a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></small></li></ul></p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/tag/no_tag">no_tag</a></p><p><strong>by:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></p></description> <pubDate>Thu, 06 Sep 2018 07:13:52 -0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Scholarly Publishing’s Last Stand - The Chronicle of Higher Education</title> <link>https://www.chronicle.com/article/Scholarly-Publishing-s-Last/243187</link> <description><p><strong>Comments:</strong><ul><li>"<br />This month, Kentucky’s General Assembly overrode Gov.

To do so, we conducted a content analysis of Open Science policies stemming from Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia and Africa to understand which narratives about Open Science policies are produced, reproduced and by whom; and in turn, whose interests may be neglected in this process. We found that Open Science policies, mostly stemming from Europe, frame “openness” as a vehicle to promote technological change as part of an inevitable and necessary cultural shift to modernity in scientific production. The global reach of these narratives, and the technologies, standards and models these narratives sustain, are dictating modes of working and collaborating among those who can access them, and creating new categories of exclusion that invalidate knowledge that cannot meet this criteria, putting historically marginalized researchers and publics at further disadvantage." - <small><a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></small></li></ul></p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/tag/no_tag">no_tag</a></p><p><strong>by:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></p></description> <pubDate>Sat, 23 Jun 2018 15:40:45 -0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Collaboration to Improve Scholarship - The Scholarly Kitchen</title> <link>https://scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2018/06/05/collaboration-improve-scholarship/</link> <description><p><strong>Comments:</strong><ul><li>"When you’re offered the chance to speak about one of your favorite topics, in one of your favorite cities, it’s very hard to say no.

The study focused on production data from 2015-2017, as well as the positioning and arguments of the editors in relation to the open access movement, publication, related policies, and financing modalities. Data was collected by a questionnaire (with a response rate of 58% of the publishers associated with UNE) and includes in-depth interviews with seven of them. The results show that 75% of UNE members publish titles in open access, most consider open access a good way to increase the dissemination of monographs, and that there are no differences in content quality with non-open access works. Publishers do not see that publishing in open access is compatible with the commercial exploitation of printed copies. Publishers consider the most effective financing channels to be institutional payment (i.e., the university), followed by publisher’s self-financing, and payment by the author." - <small><a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></small></li></ul></p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/tag/no_tag">no_tag</a></p><p><strong>by:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></p></description> <pubDate>Sat, 21 Apr 2018 07:11:03 -0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Sustainable Research Infrastructures : a call for action</title> <link>https://diigo.com/0buryh</link> <description><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/tag/no_tag">no_tag</a></p><p><strong>by:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></p></description> <pubDate>Sun, 08 Apr 2018 17:27:52 -0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>ELIXIR report highlights the importance of public bioinformatics data to SMEs</title> <link>https://www.elixir-europe.org/news/open-data-SMEs-report</link> <description><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/tag/no_tag">no_tag</a></p><p><strong>by:</strong> <a href="https://groups.diigo.com/group/operassh/content/user/piotrr" title="View Pierre Mounier's content in group">Pierre Mounier</a></p></description> <pubDate>Fri, 23 Mar 2018 08:58:57 -0000</pubDate> </item> <item> <title>Peer Review Transparency | The Substance of Scholarly Authority</title> <link>https://www.prtstandards.org</link> <description><p><strong>Comments:</strong><ul><li>"The unique authority of scholarly publishing arises from the rigorous evaluation and assessment works must go through before they are published—known as the peer review process.
