Digital CommonsTm: 10 Strategies To Expand Your Institution’S Global Research Visibility With A Next-Generation Ir, Elsevier
Copyright, Fair Use, Scholarly Communication, etc.
This short paper explores 10 themes of next generation repositories, elevating what is possible, and giving competitive advantage to forward-thinking institutions who are ready to take the next step in their IR strategy.
Since the concept was first launched in 2003, over 5,200 institutions worldwide have adopted an Institutional Repository (IR) to store and manage all their academic research and archival content, publish and manage journals, and more.
In November 2017, the global Confederation of Open Access Repositories (COAR) published the report, Behaviours and Technical Recommendations of the COAR Next Generation Repositories Working Group¹. This sets out a framework positioning …

A Cope Study (2019): Exploring Publication Ethics Issues In The Arts, Humanities, And Social Sciences, Committee On Publication Ethics
Copyright, Fair Use, Scholarly Communication, etc.
COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) is a non-statutory body which aims to provide practical publication ethics guidance for journal editors working in all research disciplines. COPE was first conceived by an editor of a specialist medical journal at the BMJ Publishing Group but has since grown to become a fully multidisciplinary organisation. As a result of perceptions within COPE that some members not in Science Technology and Medicine (STM) disciplines might not consider COPE to be as relevant, in early 2019 COPE, with the support of Routledge (part of the Taylor & Francis Group), commissioned primary research to better understand …

The aim of this book is to enhance community understanding of the mechanisms and processes that can enable Open Scholarship to reach its full potential. The book is the result of a Knowledge Exchange (KE) (knowledge-exchange.info/about-us) activity to explore the economy of Open Scholarship across six European countries (Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, the Netherlands and the UK) and beyond.
Many of the challenges in navigating the transition to Open Scholarship are economic, either in the sense of being directly financial, or in the sense of being related to incentives. We therefore focus on the economic arena. Our conclusion is that …

Fractional Authorship & Publication Productivity, Kate Gasson, Rachel Herbert, Alex Ponsford
Copyright, Fair Use, Scholarly Communication, etc.
Authors divide their research output across publications, contributing via research collaborations
The trend is for authors to produce more publications per year (increased fractionalization) but for the overall number of publications per author to decrease
We suggest that the effort required to participate in research collaborations is a factor in the decrease in publications per author
Are authors collaborating more in response to the pressure to publish?
Growth in the number of scholarly publications each year has been well documented (e.g., Bornmann & Mutz, 2015, Figure 1). But how has that growth been achieved? Is it purely due to increasing …

From Coalition To Commons: Plan S And The Future Of Scholarly Communication, Rob Johnson
Copyright, Fair Use, Scholarly Communication, etc.
Abstract
The announcement of Plan S in September 2018 triggered a wide-ranging debate over how best to accelerate the shift to open access. The Plan’s ten principles represent a call for the creation of an intellectual commons, to be brought into being through collective action by funders and managed through regulated market mechanisms. As it gathers both momentum and critics, the coalition must grapple with questions of equity, efficiency and sustainability. The work of Elinor Ostrom has shown that successful management of the commons frequently relies on polycentricity and adaptive governance. The Plan S principles must therefore function as …

bioRxiv’s option for authors to submit biology preprints directly to journals typically speeds up publication of articles by nearly 2 weeks—an advantage for authors who are keen to get their work published quickly
Authors approach ‘preprinting’ in different ways: while most post a preprint before submitting to a journal, just over a third of preprints were submitted to and accepted by a journal before the preprint appeared on bioRxiv
Biology preprints with just one version are published 2 weeks more quickly than those with multiple versions

The Expert Group on the Future of Scholarly Publishing and Scholarly Communication was set up to support the policy development of the European Commission on Open Science. The Expert Group was asked to assess the current situation with regard to scholarly communication and publishing and to establish general principles for the future. This report analyses the recent past and present states of scholarly communication and publishing. It proposes ten principles through which a vision for scholarly communication is shaped over the next 10-15 years. These principles also serve as a way to examine shortcomings of the current scholarly communication and …

This report documents the design, methods, results, and recommendations of the 2019 Census of Scholarly Communication Infrastructure Providers (SCIP), a Census produced by the “Mapping the Scholarly Communication Infrastructure” project team (Andrew W. Mellon Foundation; Middlebury College, 2018-19). The SCIP Census was created to document key components comprising the organizational, business, and technical apparatuses of a broad range of Scholarly Communication Resources (SCRs) – the tools, services, and systems that are instrumental to the publishing and distribution of the scholarly record. Using Community Cultivation – A Field Guide (Educopia, 2018) as a framework, we designed a Conceptual Model detailing the …

Comparative Summary
This report examines the emerging regulatory and policy landscape surrounding artificial intelligence (AI) in jurisdictions around the world and in the European Union (EU). In addition, a survey of international organizations describes the approach that United Nations (UN) agencies and regional organizations have taken towards AI. As the regulation of AI is still in its infancy, guidelines, ethics codes, and actions by and statements from governments and their agencies on AI are also addressed. While the country surveys look at various legal issues, including data protection and privacy, transparency, human oversight, surveillance, public administration and services, autonomous vehicles, …

As a result of the Open Access (OA) movement, it is undeniable that all over the world there are many completed and ongoing projects of institutional repositories (IR) as a new alternative for scientific communication. IR facilitate access to research outputs, i.e. articles, books, book chapters, theses and dissertations, among other publications. The creation of IR has been widely promoted in Mexico and Latin America.
