If you are a leader of a Library or a Research Institution and would like to learn more about the existing open infrastructures that could help your institution to evolve in the research environment, but you don’t know where to look for, you can now use Infra Finder, a brand-new tool aimed at foster discovery, adoption, and investment for open infrastructure services.
Research Information can be defined as an information (sometimes referred to as metadata) relating to the conduct and communication of research.

In OpenCitations, we like to define our infrastructure organization as “community-based” and “community-driven”, and we really mean it.

Last April, Martin Fenner launched Rogue Scholar, an archive of science blogs aiming to index full-text of blog posts, establish a full-text search, and register DOIs and metadata for all posts.
Last March, the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) launched its call for members to propose Working Groups and National Chapters.
We are most grateful to the Dutch Research Council (NWO) for its commitment to sustaining the activities and developments of three SCOSS-selected infrastructures (PKP, OpenCitations and ROR) together with the Netherlands Reproducibility Network.
We are delighted to announce that the French National Fund for Open Science (FNSO) has renewed its commitment to sustaining the activities of four SCOSS-selected infrastructures, including OpenCitations.
The Workshop on Open Citations and Open Scholarly Metadata will come back to Bologna, on 26-27 October 2023.
