C'est moi qui suis con (probablement) ou les outils de #Elsevier ou #WebofScience pour juste voir la tendance d'un terme dans les titres d'articles c'est juste de la grosse merde?

Je cherche juste à voir le nombre d'article qui contiennent un mot dans leur titre depuis 20 ans et j'y arrive po...

Many thanks to all our reviewers and our publisher oekom verlag for their support! 🙏

Earlier this week an opinion piece authored by me and a number of great colleagues was published on the @upstream blog. Our piece introduces criteria for innovation-friendly bibliographic databases doi.org/10.54900/d3ck1-skq19.

We express our deep concerns about the treatment of @eLife by the #WebOfScience and #Scopus databases. We see this as an example of databases hindering rather than supporting innovation in scholarly communication and research assessment.

Upstream · Criteria for Bibliographic Databases in a Well-Functioning Scholarly Communication and Research Assessment EcosystemBibliographic databases should support innovation and experimentation. Here, we offer four criteria for innovation-friendly bibliographic databases. We urge the global research community to use databases that support and do not hinder innovation in scholarly communication and research assessment.

Good news at #CNRS Open Science Day:

"CNRS's cancellation of #Scopus subscription will help support its full transition to open, non-commercial model, a point reiterated by Antoine Petit ... 'We will eventually need to stop using commercial databases for bibliometrics and bibliography'. In the meantime CNRS has maintained subscription to Clarivate's #WebOfScience database while free bibliographic databases are being developed like open access not-for-profit solution @OpenAlex."

Several researchers contacted us with the question if IRRJ will get an impact factor. We understand that some universities require young researchers to publish in journals with an impact factor, for instance for tenure tracks and other career advancements. IRRJ plans to become a appealing journal for young researchers at such universities too, and we will do our best of be assigned an impact factor. #JIF #WebOfScience

Continued thread

The decision by #WebOfScience "therefore rewards journals for continuing the unhelpful practice of keeping peer review information hidden and unintentionally presenting incomplete and inadequate studies as sound science and punishes those journals that are more transparent."
