More open citation data available! We're excited to report that all publications by @UChicagoPress—journal articles, books, book chapters—registered with @CrossrefOrg (nearly half a million records) have enabled open reference distribution. https://t.co/94NDpXPwMt

@CokoFoundation @creativecommons @zotero @stencila @opencitations @ProgHist @standardebooks Many thanks indeed to the Coko Foundation and the other sponsors for enabling this award, and to the judges for their decision and kind words at https://t.co/Lxw9LgWve3

[David Shotton @dshotton]

Honoured to receive this award. So far, OpenCitations has picked the low-hanging fruit. Now the hard work starts: to extend the global open citation graph to include all those publications not using Crossref DOIs - see Academia’s missing references https://t.co/xhw7pWCvZZ.

[OpenCitations @opencitations]

Just added 334 million #citations to #COCI, for an overall amount of 1.09 BILLION #DOItoDOI citation links, including @elsevier references on @crossref. A threshold confirming the essential value of @I4OC! #OpenAccess #CitationData #OpenCitations

Thanks, Ross, but we also must acknowledge the hard work of all those other good folk involved in the Initiative for Open Citations, spearheaded by Dario Taraborelli @ReaderMeter

[Arcadia Fund @ArcadiaFund]

Elsevier announced it will be opening up reference lists of all articles via @CrossrefOrg. Can’t overestimate the hard work of @essepuntato @dshotton @opencitations in making this happen. Congratulations!

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the Initiative for Open Abstracts, a new initiative that calls for unrestricted availability of abstracts to boost the discovery of research https://t.co/P0pnHVx7V4 #I4OA

[David Shotton @dshotton]

Read this, and then think about the further transition from 'sustainable' to 'sustained' necessary for open infrastructures to compete effectively. Do YOU have a role to play? See #SCOSS and #InvestInOpen
