IOI is thrilled to finally announce the 8 grantees for the #OpenInfrastructure Fund. The grantees, from Latin America, Asia, and Africa, were selected after a rigorous review process that has been ongoing since August 2023.

Interopérabilité HAL science ouverte / Peer Community In (PCI) :
HAL affiche les recommandations de PCI
Les différences entre un preprint et une publication se réduisent

J'en profite pour souligner la suppression actuelle de nombreux articles autour du libre dans Wikipédia, sous prétexte qu'il n'y a pas assez de sources secondaires.

Exemples
- suppression récente de l'article @primtux
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discussion:PrimTux/Admissibilit%C3%A9
- suppression possible de l'article @gcompris (et ses millions d'utilisateurs dans le monde !)
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/GCompris

Et pourquoi il n'y a pas assez de sources ? Parce que les journalistes se moquent du logiciel libre !

Et maintenant, c'est au tour de la Suède de se doter d'une politique nationale de science ouverte. https://www.kb.se/5.337cb17b18c7ccd20f52690.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon Natio¬nal guide¬li¬nes for promoting open science in Sweden #scienceouverte #openscience

https://osc.universityofcalifornia.edu/2024/01/california-universities-partner-with-wiley-on-landmark-open-access-agreement/

"The University of California’s 2023 agreement with #Wiley broke new ground on another priority for UC faculty: author rights. As part of this new agreement, Wiley will make a good faith effort to develop a new global license to publish agreement over the next six months. The goal, except for limited use-cases, is for authors to retain unrestricted rights to their own work."

#Copyright #RightsRetention, #UCalifornia

A brand-new version of our user interface just went live, and we're excited about it! Try it out now at https://openalex.org/

Ok, this one has been a while coming but so glad it is now out!

Short version:

#OpenAccess works. More access -> more use.

Slightly longer version:

Giving more people access means that more people use research, in this case as demonstrated by the *diversity* (not just the count, although that as well) of incoming citations!

Long version with all the technical details, code, etc etc:

Congrats to the COKI team and in particular Dr Karl Huang who led this work!

L'engagement du @cnrs pour la #ScienceOuverte marque une étape importante avec le désabonnement de la base bibliographique Scopus. Dès que des solutions ouvertes seront suffisamment abouties, l'organisme arrêtera d’avoir recours aux bases commerciales.

Interesting to see #rightsretention clauses gradually finding their way into so-called #TAs aka #RnPdeals (as predicted in @pacobib's paper at https://mastodon.cloud/@pacobib/111504716930997325)

Code clubs are initiatives where people meet to improve their coding skills and help each other out. I am a big fan of them as I believe that they can help improving the quality of research. Because as we all know: Better Software, Better Research.

Read my newsletter post about code clubs with lots of useful ressources ✨ 🤓
