Liebe dt. Wissenschaft, von mir verlangst Du seit Jahren vollstes Commitment. Von Dir bekomme ich im Gegenzug nichts als maximale Unverbindlichkeit. So kann es mit uns nicht weitergehen. Deshalb schreibe ich Dir diesen Brief — nachzulesen heute in meinem Newsletter #ArbeitInDerWiss! #IchBinHanna

📢Employment opportunity at PKP! PKP is hiring a Managing Director, who will be responsible for ensuring PKP’s long-term sustainability and continued global impact. If you are interested, learn more at: pkp.sfu.ca/2025/09/17/h...

First paper is form the #MetricsLiteracy project. They tested the use of videos to educate on the h-index. You can see one here: youtu.be/HSf79S3XkJw?... #StiEnid2025

Really lovely little video! I felt very sorry for the poor sad English professor.

1/5🧵After a long trip through peer review limbo, our paper on inclusion and public participation in Open Science policy is finally out! 📖 doi.org/10.1098/rsos...

2/5 We analyzed 52 policy documents from Europe and the Americas. We found that most make broad claims about democratizing knowledge, but offer little in the way of concrete measures to support inclusion or public engagement.

3/5 That is, inclusion is often treated as secondary—something that might follow from openness, rather than something requiring its own commitments and actions. Publics are named, but rarely centered. Our findings suggest that without more intentional policy, this won’t change.

4/5 Being able to read or reuse research isn’t the same as being able to contribute to it—or shape the systems that govern it. As governments question the value of inclusion, it’s urgent we ask who Open Science is for—and who gets to shape it.

5/5 Grateful to Reviewer 1 for their thoughtful and constructive feedback. Co-authored with @juancommander, @estebanmorales.bsky.social, @fleerackers.bsky.social, @idorsch.bsky.social, @stephenpinfield.bsky.social & @masimard.scholcommlab.ca

Our upcoming Open Research Seminars in May, June and July on the German Excellence Initiative, measuring disruption in science and evaluative bibliometrics in the DORA/CoARA context:

#OPENIT Come and work with us on #openaccess and, in particular, the analysis of open access policies, the study of different scientific publishing models and the modelling of long-term economic dynamics. More information is below. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

This collaborative project involved talents of #Concordia film student Julie-Ann Déry and doctoral student Marie-Josée Archambault as well as @uottawa.bsky.social students Maddie Hare (@mbhare.bsky.social), Alyssa Jeffrey, Tristan Lamonica and postdocs Isabelle Dorsch (@idorsch.bsky.social),.. (2/x)

⭐New publication alert!⭐ Out now in Canadian Journal of Communication, our commentary argues for more research at the intersection of #opendata and #datajournalism (🧵) w/ @nataschachtena.bsky.social Monique Oliveira @idorsch.bsky.social @juancommander.scholcommlab.ca @stephenpinfield.bsky.social

Look out, our educational videos about the h-index are available! Did you ever want to explain to someone the problems of the h-index? You can find the links to the videos below👇🏻

Sometimes the best that comes out of 4-year #SSHRC project are 2 amazing educational videos. Learned so much & trained students from information science, education, film, theatre... and we had tons of fun! Watch for yourself WHY YOU SHOULD STOP USING THE #H-INDEX: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSf7...

Very excited about this partnership between STI-ENID2025 and #MetaROR (MetaResearch Open Review), the open peer review platform set up by @aimosinc.bsky.social and @rorinstitute.bsky.social! Looking forward to working together with @gemmaderrick.bsky.social and Neil Jacobs at University of Bristol.

📢 We are pleased to announce a #postdoctoral position at #LISIS (Interdisciplinary Laboratory for Science, Innovations, and Societies), Paris, to work on the #ROR² project focused on #OpenScience and #Research_Integrity. ℹ️ For more details, please see: ror2.hypotheses.org/247

After Springer in 2022, now Elsevier forbids OpenAlex to store abstracts of Closed Access papers. github.com/ourresearch/... We think this is a worrying trend, hindering the discoverability of research. @relx.bsky.social Is this what you mean with 'Empowering Open Science' ?

And we are live! www.stienid2025.org Call for Special Sessions and Papers open January 2025. Spread the news and see you there!

Meldet euch noch bis Freitag zur Konferenz “Evaluation in Science Communication” des @mscl.bsky.social und der Impact Unit an und tauscht euch vom 7. bis 8.12. an der Uni München mit Wisskomm-Praktiker*innen und -Forscher*innen aus: 📜https://www.mscl.de/evaluation-in-der-wissenschaftskommunikation/

Vom Mut zu gehen: Heidi Seibold hat das Wissenschaftssystem verlassen. In ihrem Gastbeitrag erklärt sie, warum Forschende anders bewertet werden müssen, damit gute Wissenschaft und OpenScience gelingen können. #IMPULSE www.volkswagenstiftung.de/de/news/mein...

Nice blog post about what is going on at the #scholcommlab! 🤓 www.scholcommlab.ca/2023/11/09/f...

had a great time presenting my side-quest on #fragmentation in emerging fields of research at the ASIS&T METSTI 23 in London. the density of high quality research in the room, the engaging presentations and the great ZPID team led by @abitter.bsky.social - simply fantastic! 👻

On my way back from the METSTI 23 workshop in London 🚄 Thanks @idorsch.bsky.social + team for organizing this event - most interesting talks and inspiring scholars! I am honored that our study on the academic #TwitterMigration won a best paper award - and a Bluesky overlay 😄
