Every now and then we feature work that is shared in Hypergraph. You can choose to read it here or open it in Hypergraph (download Hypergraph here). Content suggestions can be sent to community@libscie.org. Cover image courtesy of CrossRef (CC-BY 4.0). The Digital Object Identifier (DOI) system is like a digital address book: One DOI name resolves to information on the location of the content.
L’année 2022 a été riche en actualités Zotero, avec notamment la publication de Zotero v6. Notre dernier bulletin de veille date pourtant de décembre 2021… Avec le présent bulletin, nous avons le plaisir de vous présenter l’index des bulletins de veille, qui reprend par grandes rubriques tous les contenus déjà publiés dans les bulletins.
I read a lot of news, but I do not like being consumed by it. The balance between what's happening now (news), the short or long past (history), and potential futures (foresight or analysis) is a rough one to keep. This post is about making sure that sources are readily accessible where possible, straight from the news. Part of not becoming consumed by the news and its biases is doing source research and verifying information.
Science blogs have been around for at least 20 years and have become an important part of science communication. So are there any fundamental issues that need fixing?Barriers to Entry Blogging platforms are mature at this point, and the technology is not imposing barriers to entry for most people.
Project THOR is coming to a close. Our final event was held in Italy on 15 November at ‘La Sapienza’ – the University of Rome – just a stone’s throw from Michelangelo’s impressive sculpture of Moses in the church of San Pietro in Vincoli. The day combined a retrospective review of THOR’s achievements and impact with a forward-looking perspective on the wider persistent identifier (PID) landscape.
The Rogue Scholar science blog archive is open to science blogs that want to be enhanced by adding long-term archiving, DOI registration, and full-text search. The currently 56 participating blogs represent a broad spectrum of topics, people, and communities. Today I want to go into more detail into one particular Rogue Scholar use case: science blogs for grant-funded projects.
In previous blog posts such as the one published earlier this week, I discussed the various elements involved in registering a DOI for a science blog post.
GigaScience has always had a focus on reproducibility rather than subjective impact, and it can be challenging for our reviewers to judge this, especially now that more and more tools are being created – bringing data science to the masses. This also means more efficiency and ease is required especially when multiple collaborators and contributors on a specific project are involved.
Everything we have gained by opening content and data will be under threat if we allow the enclosure of scholarly infrastructures. We propose a set of principles by which Open Infrastructures to support the research community could be run and sustained.
Tim Di Muzio explores the concept of ‘sabotage’ as it applies to capitalist power.
