Built and developed by researchers, to ensure that everyone can join in Open Science.
The OpenAIRE project, in the vanguard of the open access and open data movements in Europe was commissioned by the EC to support their nascent Open Data policy by providing a catch-all repository for EC funded research. CERN, an OpenAIRE partner and pioneer in open source, open access and open data, provided this capability and Zenodo was launched in May 2013.
In support of its research programme CERN has developed tools for Big Data management and extended Digital Library capabilities for Open Data. Through Zenodo these Big Science tools could be effectively shared with the long-tail of research.
“All these papers were deliberately bad. They were created with the purpose of exposing exploitative publishing practices. That is, the works collected here were sting operations on predatory journals.” So says the introduction to the book Stinging the Predators: A collection of papers that should never have been published, assembled by Zen Faulkes.
"Das Handbuch 'CoScience - Gemeinsam forschen und publizieren mit dem Netz' ist eine Wissens- und Bildungsressource, die kurz vor und während der CeBIT 2014 im Rahmen eines Book Sprints auf der kollaborativen Plattform handbuch.io entstanden ist. Das Arbeiten mit dem Netz stellt etablierte wissenschaftliche Praktiken in Frage. Forschung wird zunehmend vernetzt, kollaborativ, multimedial und trans- bzw. interdisziplinär durchgeführt. Das Handbuch 'CoScience' beschreibt diese sich herausbildenden Praktiken in leicht verständlicher Form und gibt nützliche Tipps und Anregungen für all diejenigen, die am Anfang ihrer wissenschaftlichen Karriere stehen."

A STATEMENT OF COMMITMENT BY STM PUBLISHERS TO A ROADMAP TO ENABLE TEXT AND DATA MINING (TDM) FOR NON COMMERCIAL SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH IN THE EUROPEAN UNION
This web page is a clearinghouse for information related to scholarly publication in Computing and related fields.
In recent years, there has been much discussion in the Computing Research community regarding scholarly publication: how we communicate and evaluate our ideas. We have a complex, multi-layered system of workshops, conferences, and journals, each of which has evolved as our field has grown. Perhaps it is time to reassess and see if there is benefit to changing the way we publish. There are two forces that provide impetus for such an assessment. On the one hand, there is a worry about how the current systems scale as our field continues to grow. On the other hand, there are new possibilities due to the economics of electronic publication.
