However, as an academic community, we are not yet ready to fully embrace and support the OA monograph transformation. Books continue to lag behind journals in terms of OA publishing, infrastructure, and distribution. The Open Book Collective (OBC) provides some key solutions for the existing challenges while charting a new collective path toward an open and sustainable monograph future. The proliferation of OA policy mandates and library-funded OA pilots led by academic publishers or scholar-led presses combined with recent developments in infrastructural support for OA book publishing are important milestones [<a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://universityofcalifornia.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=70f05258e973751fd1c3029c3&id=23c450fa68&e=6e2e1277b0__;!!CzAuKJ42GuquVTTmVmPViYEvSg!PfVOHH-_PN8xP6_6qyccQGmjZJfFK3bIBsnUhmtqoDFdTLph0j8YgkiOT-BhQAh9LIW1WsqF2hQ$" target="_blank">…]</a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 7.5pt;"><span style="color: #202020; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The post <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/universityofcalifornia.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=70f05258e973751fd1c3029c3&id=23c450fa68&e=6e2e1277b0__;!!CzAuKJ42GuquVTTmVmPViYEvSg!PfVOHH-_PN8xP6_6qyccQGmjZJfFK3bIBsnUhmtqoDFdTLph0j8YgkiOT-BhQAh9LIW1WsqF2hQ$" style="text-size-adjust: 100%;"><span style="color: #007c89;">Open Book Collective: Collective Path Toward an Open

support Creative Commons, SPARC, and EIFL, global leaders of the open access

international research and publishing communities to make all research on
COVID-19, and now monkeypox, openly available, demonstrates that to properly
address the world’s greatest challenges, research needs to be open. OSF has called
for all research to be made openly available, since we helped to define open
access to research twenty years ago. I believe the Open Climate Campaign will
serve as a model for opening research in other critical fields,” said Melissa

University of California Libraries A year is a long time in the world of scientific
research. The omicron variant of COVID-19 was identified in November 2021. The
James Webb Space Telescope launched in December 2021 and sent back its first
images just last month. Access to the latest science is the best way to solve
today’s problems and accelerate future discoveries — and that is why the White
House guidance issued this week to make federally funded research freely and
immediately available is so important. A 2013 Obama-era policy
established a requirement that most federally funded, peer-reviewed [<a href="https://osc.universityofcalifornia.edu/2022/08/wind-in-our-sails-university-of-california-hails-white-house-ostp-guidance/" target="_blank">…</a>]<o:p></o:p></span></p>Mitchell_C_Brownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456681486697347404noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763305728729709676.post-88020846139580328232022-08-18T15:52:00.005-07:002022-08-18T15:52:31.962-07:00Pathways to Open Access: Open Infrastructure and CDL - John Chodacki - August 18, 2022<h2><a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/universityofcalifornia.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=70f05258e973751fd1c3029c3&id=695f922c81&e=6e2e1277b0__;!!CzAuKJ42GuquVTTmVmPViYEvSg!PFhguY_vLuURyidLopaqEObr26pjsO0bYsB0VSzej6CBBESOe9AypD4YsLtHwzol9lsnCVgEuhE$" target="_blank"><span style="color: #007c89; font-weight: normal;">Pathways to Open

series highlights CDL’s efforts on various pathways to open access and
illustrates how diverse approaches can complement and reinforce each other–and
how they can raise productive tensions that push us to think more critically
about the work we do. We believe this kind of approach can move us toward true
and comprehensive transformation of the scholarly communications landscape.
What is the strategy described in this post? In this post, we focus on open
infrastructure. While this topic is not always prominent in discussions about
open access, it has become an essential part of our strategy at CDL and

This program is particularly unique given that the 10 projects are composed of 28 distinct NSF awards (detailed below) representing many organizations and institutions in the United States seeking to advance open-science efforts.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #2d2d2d; font-family: Roboto-Light, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">The NSF Solicitation 22-553 for FAIROS RCN supports groups of investigators to communicate, innovate, coordinate, and standardize research practices, training, and educational activities across disciplinary, organizational, geographic, and international boundaries to achieve the goals of FAIR and other open-science guiding principles. Research coordination networks are a form of awards that NSF makes to advance scientific practices and standards broadly across multiple research fields. These RCN awards will be for three-year projects. The managing program director for this new NSF solicitation is Martin Halbert, the NSF Science Advisor for Public Access.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #2d2d2d; font-family: Roboto-Light, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">Research libraries are key partners on campus to advance open-science practices. Many ARL member libraries provide services and infrastructure to support open-science initiatives and research data–related activities and best practices. Research libraries foster community building and support researchers across disciplinary areas. These services often include consultations, workshops, technical tools (such as institutional repositories and statistical software), and more.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #2d2d2d; font-family: Roboto-Light, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;"></p><a href="https://www.arl.org/news/arl-applauds-nsf-open-science-investment/" style="border: 0px; box-shadow: none; box-sizing: border-box; color: #7ebd49; text-decoration-line: none;">Click here</a> to read the original press release.</div>Mitchell_C_Brownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456681486697347404noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763305728729709676.post-72875132215074272842022-08-16T13:07:00.006-07:002022-08-16T13:07:49.364-07:00 Pathways to Open Access: Library Publishing/Repository Services and CDL - Catherine Mitchell - August 16, 2022<p> </p><div align="center">

of UC stepping in to protect its investigators and data assets to ensure
continuity of research. However, there are plenty of other examples of UC’s
commitment to protecting the ability of its employees to conduct research that
often don’t catch the eyes of news outlets. They include, for example, sifting

professor of chemistry.<br />

Metallic and enzyme-based catalysts are important tools in chemistry,
playing a role in energy production and storage, the treatment of
diseases and the removal of harmful molecules from the environment. In
2000, MacMillan and List, working independently from one another,
developed a third approach, called asymmetric organocatalysis, which
works with small organic molecules that are less environmentally harmful
and are inexpensive to produce. “The award of this year’s Chemistry Prize
to List and MacMillan will be broadly welcomed by the chemistry
community,” Overman said. “The organocatalytic chemical synthesis methods
developed by David MacMillan are used every day around the world in the
discovery and development of new medicines. What sets Dave apart is his
remarkable creativity and vision. These attributes, together with his
delightful personality, were apparent early in his graduate studies at
UCI.” MacMillan was an inaugural inductee of the UCI School of Physical
Sciences Alumni Hall of Fame.</span><span style="color: #202020; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br />

The deal will put more UC research into the hands of individuals across the globe at a time when international collaboration to fight COVID-19 has illuminated the value of open access to scientific findings.</div><div><br /></div><div>The agreement is the largest of its kind in North America to date, bringing together UC, which generates nearly 10 percent of all U.S. research output, and Elsevier, which disseminates about 17 percent of journal articles produced by UC faculty. The deal will double the number of articles made available through UC’s transformative open access agreements.</div><div><br /></div><div>“This groundbreaking agreement will allow for more open, equitable access to information,” said UC President Michael V. Drake, M.D. “As more universities and research institutions support open access, scientific knowledge will advance at an unparalleled pace.”</div><div>...</div><div>"Under the four-year deal, all research with a UC lead author published in Elsevier’s extensive portfolio of hybrid and open access journals will be open access by default. It is the first such agreement to include open access publishing in the entire Cell Press and Lancet families of journals, which are considered among the world’s most prestigious scientific and medical titles.
