"As part of this partnership with @OpenAlex, the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research is committed to working closely with OpenAlex. In addition to making a financial contribution to the operation of OpenAlex, which is seen as a crucial open science infrastructure, France will play a key role in helping to improve OpenAlex’s general data, and to enrich data related to French research in particular, and beyond."
The OAPEN OA Books Toolkit will be redesigned and enriched with new, research-based content this year! Please help us redesign the Toolkit by sharing your user experience with us. The survey will take less than 5 minutes and it is open until Thursday, February 29. We look forward to your feedback!

Re-classifying knowledge: moving from BIC to Thema
by RonaldSnijder@mastodon.social
I love #Mastodon so much. Last night I posted an #introduction on a whim, just to say hello.
I expected to be ignored just like I have been so many times on #twitter (refuse to call the #birdsite "X", ugh).
I woke up to numerous #boost notifications and new followers. Wow.
A place to actually connect.
How wonderful.
Happy to meet you all, I am Jessa!

EIFL is happy and honoured to be a partner https://www.eifl.net/eifl-in-action/open-science-ukrainian-higher-education-system-open4ua-project advancing research assessment reform and fostering national and institutional open science policy developments
It finally works! 🤞🏼
Here is a table of more than 1000 journalists on #Mastodon, that updates itself – showing the ones most active, most followed etc. I took the wonderful table by @tchambers as foundation, but deleted some media organizations, so that it only contains accounts from people.
I want to make another for media accounts (and maybe even more 🤔).
Have a look!

Exploring National Infrastructures to Support Impact Analyses of Publicly Accessible Research: A Need for Trust, Transparency and Collaboration at Scale
Kemp, Jennifer; Watkinson, Charles; Drummond, Christina
"The concept behind @graspos is to build the European Federated Open Metrics Infrastructure in a decentralised way, where:
different types of data come together to create metrics;
tools and services are developed to improve EU or global infrastructures but are also shared with national or institutional monitoring platforms;
indicators and assessment protocols are developed, tested and shared.
A metrics infrastructure that by its nature supports research organisations and communities to design their own paths on how to include OS in their RRA protocols and that they select solutions that meet their needs and may apply them at their own controlled environment and own pace. The end result would be to bring a sense of openness and consistency in the metrics domain, which would also allow diversity in assessment and innovation in meta-research. "
