Today, Alice Meadows shares some learnings from MoreBrains Cooperative’s recent cost-benefit analysis of persistent identifiers, conducted on behalf of the Czech National Library of Technology (NTK).
The many trust issues in scholarly publishing might benefit from applying a zero-trust framework to the publication process.
Promoting research integrity is not just identifying bad behavior: problem articles can also be detected by the absence of ‘honest’ signals of integrity.
A new CSIRO/CHORUS project seeks to improve tracking of the use of research faciilities and their impact.
As scholarly journal editorial practices are the subject of growing scrutiny, publishers should explore “quality signals” systemically derived from researcher identity and metadata associated with identity.
In today’s Kitchen Essentials interview, Alice Meadows asks Chris Shillum, Executive DIrector of ORCID, to share his thoughts about his career in research infrastructure
In today’s post Alice Meadows, Jasmine Wallace, and Karin Wulf kick off a week of posts to celebrate Peer Review Week 2023 with their thoughts on peer review and the future of publishing.
The ORCID US consortium, managed by Lyrasis, is five years old in 2023 – hear about their progress so far and plans for the future in Alice Meadows’ interview with their PID Program Leader, Sheila Raybun
Why are national PID strategies having a moment, and why should you care? Find out in today’s post by Alice Meadows.
Funder guidance is too vague when it comes to identifiers and metadata. It needs to get specific to be effective.
In the second of two posts on persistent identifiers in scholarly communications, Phill Jones and Alice Meadows share information about a new cost-benefit analysis showing the value of widespread PID adoption
Whether or not you attended this year’s 24-hour online party for persistent identifiers, aka PIDapalooza 2021, here’s your chance to read all about it!
Recognizing the many ways that researchers (and others) contribute to science and scholarship has historically been challenging but we now have options, including CRediT and ORCID.
Persistent identifiers (PIDs) are an essential part of the open research infrastructure, but need widespread adoption to be effective. Learn about Jisc’s plans to increase adoption through a national PID consortium in this post by Alice Meadows.
What does a strong and sustainable research infrastructure look like? How close are we to building one? What improvements are needed? This summary of a recent SSP webinar addresses these questions and more.
