Did you know that @OpenAlex now provides saved searchers and scholarly literature alerts that tell you when new papers on a topic are published. I switched my alerts from Google Scholar & really like the change (fewer extra papers that don't really match the search criteria) plus it's based on open scholarly infrastructure produced by a non-profit.

(COI: because I believe in open scholarly infrastructure I volunteer on the board for the folks that make Open Alex)

Colour me unsurprised: “Several said that they actively didn’t respond to emails, or acted in an exaggerated disorganised manner. This meant they were assigned fewer tasks, but were also less frequently asked, and thus got away without doing service.”

Over the past few years I've been involved in various initiatives with the goal of making research information more available and more usable.
Over the past few months we've been working to bring these together with the goal of making a step change towards openness of research information.
It's #BarcelonaDeclaration day!
Today at 10:00 CEST - launch of the Barcelona Declaration on Open Research Information

IFTAS is happy to announce the public availability of our DSA Guide for Decentralized Services – a practical guide for small and micro services that are subject to the EU’s Digital Services Act.
If your server has member accounts in the EU, or is publicly viewable in the EU, your service is most likely impacted by this regulation, even if you are not based or hosted in the EU.

Because they bring me such joy, I will share with you all the software testing videos I share with my Software Design and Development students.

BIC to Thema – after the conversion
For over a decade, we have been using the BIC classification code, which was used by many – mostly UK based – publishers. However, the BIC classification was deprecated in February 2024, and is succeeded by the Thema classification.
Now, the classification has been updated in the #OAPEN #Library and the Directory of #OpenAccess #Books (DOAB)

"It takes skill and knowledge to write software. And while many skills and some knowledge will transfer, working on a new software project inevitably requires developing new skills and more knowledge. Software developers are not fungible cogs that you can swap in and out at will...
This thread is a microcosm of the interactions in Open Source projects. Consumers make demands (some polite, some not-so-polite) of one maintainer (rarely two) that does everything."
