Dear all,
I am not sure what the fate of this email list will be, not sure if we are supposed to still use it or if anyone is still receiving messages.
Can I ask if there is or if there is a plan for a new email list moderator, or is it just being phased out? Last chance we checked there were 500+ members; it seems like a unique resource and a shame to just let it die.
Anyway:
In other lists I am a member of Jon Tennant has shared the first formally published version of the Open Scholarship Strategy:
"The
purpose of this document is to provide a concise analysis of where the
global Open Scholarship movement currently stands: what the common
threads and strengths are, where the greatest opportunities and
challenges lie, and how we can more effectively work together as a
global community to recognise the top strategic priorities."
As Jon notes,
"The
main document is available in a range of formats: markdown, R markdown,
Epub, iPython notebook, open document text, PDF, rich-text format,
LaTeX, plain text, xml, and html. Comments and contributions to the next
version are welcome through
THIS MARKDOWN FILE, or if you are uncomfortable with traditional Git-based workflows, through the issue tracker HERE.
In addition to the above, the pilot module for the Open Science MOOC, Open Source and Open Research Software, is now open for community feedback. We would welcome comments and criticisms from anyone interested, and all realms of scholarly communication!"
As this is part of the domain of the digital humanities, affecting most crucially colleages from the Global South, I thought I'd share here.
Hoping you are all well,
Ernesto
