Really excited to share that we’ve published Thoth Open Metadata’s self-assessment against the Principles of Open Scholarly Infrastructure (POSI). 🎉
For us, this is more than a compliance exercise. It’s an open reflection on how we believe open metadata for books should be governed, sustained, and shared - with community oversight, open-source code, and CC0 data and open APIs at its core. As open access policies evolve, infrastructure transparency matters for publishers, librarians, and policymakers alike. 📚 #MetadataMatters
This work connects directly to the next phase of Thoth’s development - and we’ll be continuing the conversation at the Copim community's #CopimConference tomorrow and on Friday, where we’ll be discussing the future of #communityled #OAbooks and the infrastructure they depend on together with like-minded #openinfras, #libraries, #publishers, and #researchers.
There's no #OpenAccess without #OpenInfrastructure!

Lots of team Copim are heading down to London today to set up for the #CopimConference which starts tomorrow!

We're looking forward to attending the #CopimConference on Thursday and Friday of this week -- say hello if you'll be there too! 👋
@rupertgatti and @alittleroad are part of the programme, and Alessandra Tosi, Laura Rodriguez, Javi Arias, Ross Higman and other members of the team will be there in person. If you see us, say hi -- we'll all be happy to talk all things #OAbooks & open infrastructure!

Really looking forward to our #CopimConference to kick off later this week!
On Day 2, I'll be chairing a session on
Metadata, dissemination challenges & open community solutions for open access books
and will be welcoming panelists @EmmaE_B , Edgar Garcia Valencia, and Harrison W. Inefuku.
Emma, Edgar, and Harrison will be sharing perspectives of a library, an infrastructure researcher, and a library publisher, on the varied issues related to book #metadata and #dissemination - perspectives that will touch upon questions such as “What is a book?”, and discuss issues of ingest pipelines and adoption of #PIDs and controlled vocabularies in the books space.
Panellists will also seek to touch upon the benefits of, and potential barriers to, establishing practical, community-led solutions that make #OAbooks findable and re-usable within as well as outside of library systems.
