�� Key takeaway 1: It's now easy to access #ORCiD data with Google BigQuery; we can enhance @DSDimensions data. 🙌

Find out more in this Research Musings post from Hélène Draux & Simon Porter, "Blooming research profiles" - available now on Substack.

In my view this is an important article that everybody who publishes in the scientific literature should read. It's written by a stellar line up of "data sleuths" | @AbalkinaAnna | @MicrobiomDigest | @deevybee | @JAByrneSci | @gcabanac | @ClearSkiesAdam | @nickwizzo | https://t.co/6s8IRzS7QJ

Great to be part of this new project and looking forward to working with a fantastic team led by @samoore_

[Aaron Tay @aarontay]

Looking at feedback on @UndermindAI , mostly positive though there's the typical "interpretation of search results” might be inaccurate. To me even humans make such errors, my question is do LLMs (with or without RAG) make similar errors as humans (1)

[2nd Global Summit on Diamond Open Access @GlobalDiamondOA]

We explored the powerful collaboration between leading open-source initiatives like OMP, DOAB, OAPN, TOTE, and the Open Book Collective. These independent entities are working together to build a transparent, coordinated infrastructure supporting the dissemination of OA books.

#OpenAccess #Scholarly

[Catriona MacCallum @[email protected] @catmacOA]

Brilliant provocation from Vincent van Gerven Oei, @punctum_books & https://t.co/A6ot9z1KF9 on why metrics are inherently in conflict with open access: that we mustn't conflate measures with a system of distribution #OASPA2024

[Andrea Chiarelli @drAChiarelli]

@lorraineestelle from Information Power highlights the importance of creating differentiated pricing models based on country level data. Full document here: https://t.co/Cl9PvkgWps #OASPA2024

[Andrea Chiarelli @drAChiarelli]

@cOAlitionS_OA, @Jisc and @PLOS release a beta tool to assess scholarly communication models and arrangements on the axis of equity and use this to steer either investment or scholarly communication model-development decisions.

[cOAlition S @cOAlitionS_OA]

“The Equity Tool helps users consider a range of criteria to move away from inequitable article-based models and facilitate more equitable participation in knowledge sharing”, commented @robertkiley, @cOAlitionS_OA during the #OASPA2024 Panel on “Building #Equity in #OpenAccess”

[punctum 🌈 books @punctum_books]

@DevikaMadalli @JSTOR @ACLS1919 @IOPPublishing .@JudithFathallah on academic precarity and publishing #OpenAccess. Access and impact trump “prestige” which no longer is a guarantee for an academic job. The “implicit contract” has been broken so all things being equal open access gives more exposure. #OASPA2024

[Lucy Barnes (not posting here anymore) @alittleroad]

We've heard this more than once at #OASPA2024 but also heard 'community-led' identified as a term of 'value' by a commercial press. Important to be clear about *what* e.g. 'community-led' *means* to avoid a kind of 'community-washing' as organisations latch on to the term.
