#opencitations — Public Fediverse posts

This morning, #OpenCitations was awarded the Certificate of Excellence in Research Infrastructure Leadership, marking the conclusion of the Executive Masters in Management of Research Infrastructures (#EMMRI), a unique journey that saw members of the OpenCitations team participate in all the programme’s training modules.

We are deeply grateful to the entire faculty who guided us throughout this educational path, and especially to Dr Marialuisa Lavitrano, Dr Enrico Guarini, and Dr Laura Farina for making possible the creation of a master’s programme truly unique in its kind.

💡During today’s graduation session, one sentence resonated strongly with us: “Leadership is a form of enthusiasm.”

This perfectly reflects the spirit that drives our daily work at OpenCitations. Beyond the knowledge and skills we gained, we will carry forward the relationships and shared visions we built with colleagues across global research infrastructures: this enthusiasm for collaboratively building sustainable infrastructures for research is something we recognized in every participant we met along the way. @unimib @essepuntato @brevelunga

🔍 GRAPHIA Researchers Series

GRAPHIA’s Researchers Series continues, highlighting the people behind #GRAPHIA and the diverse expertise shaping the project. From digital humanities to data science, these perspectives come together to build more connected and accessible knowledge.

In this third feature, we introduce Marta Soricetti (#OpenCitations - University of Bologna), sharing her perspective on GRAPHIA’s work.

As she puts it:
“GRAPHIA automates the parsing of millions of documents through one unified citations network, revealing who is citing whom. It’s like, I would say, digital archaeology for modern scholarship.”

📢OpenCitations Governance Evolution

Over the past few years, #OpenCitations has grown into a core component of the global Open Science ecosystem. To match this growth, we have now adopted a new governance model, providing a clearer, more robust, and sustainable institutional foundation.

Developed with guidance from our International Advisory Board and in collaboration with the Alma Mater Studiorum – Università di Bologna, the new framework strengthens autonomy, formalizes long-term commitments, and aligns with internationally recognized best practices for Open Science sustainability.

This is a key milestone, reflecting the shared commitment of our community to ensure OpenCitations continues to operate in the service of researchers and institutions worldwide.

@fionabradley Thanks! I've been following #SCOSS from the beginning. Does it now recommend specific governance structures? I can't see any.

As I see it, the awardees are either university-owned (#arXiv #Redalyc #OpenCitations) or FLOSS projects with limited lock-in potential (#DOAJ #SHERPA #PKP #DSpace). #OAPEN and #DOAB are the exception, relatively new orgs under Belgian law.

The SCOSS method is interesting because money flows directly from universities to the targets.

@OpenAIRE @SCOSSfunding @investinopen @eoscassociation @operaseu @graspos

Exciting things are happening behind the scenes at #OpenCitations...
You may experience some temporary service disruptions, but our team is working to minimise the inconvenience.
Get ready. A big reveal is coming soon.🔎✨

❗EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE❗Due to an unplanned outage, some #OpenCitations services may not be working as expected. We are currently working to resolve the issue. Thank you for your patience.

❗PLANNED MAINTENANCE ON APRIL 17 ❗
Due to ordinary maintenance planned on April 17, 2025, some #OpenCitations services may not function as expected. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience.

💡 #GRAPHIA aims to create the first comprehensive Social Science and Humanities (SSH) Knowledge Graph. #OpenCitations is one of its data sources, and our @unibo personnel is involved in developing new tools for data extraction from PDFs. Press release at: https://opencitations.hypotheses.org/3869

The new logo of #OpenCitations is an evolution of the elements of the old one and embodies our values of openness, curiosity, and innovation:

Letter O for “Open” our a core value and ultimate goal;

Letter C for “Citations”;

Eye as a symbol of curiosity and exploration of research;

Citation Markups symbolizing the semantic web technologies.

THE NAME OF OPENCITATIONS NEW LOGO

Have you already become familiar with the mascot of our new logo?

We have decided to call this character “QUIRIN”, a name which describes the four pillars of #OpenCitations services: QUality; Integration; Reusablity and INteroperability. Quirin is not just a mascot but is an integral part of the OpenCitations brand! Learn more at https://opencitations.hypotheses.org/3797

THE NEW LOGO OF OPENCITATIONS
Our old OC logo has served us well for many years, but we needed a design to reflect the present and future of #OpenCitations. The new logo is strongly distinctive and its uniqueness has made it possible to officially register it as a trademark! And we even gave it a name: https://opencitations.hypotheses.org/3797

#OpenCitations

@OpenAIRE @graspos @SCOSSfunding @investinopen
@BarcelonaDORI @unibo @eoscassociation @dblp @PublicKnowledgeProject @operas_ger

For #OpenCitations, it has become a tradition to take a moment at the end of January to reflect on the achievements of the past year and plan for the future with a clearer mind. In 2024, we have been working on behind-the-scenes improvements that will transform the OpenCitations experience for our users and services in 2025. Revisit the key steps of last year with us in the new blog post on #OpenCitationsBlog: https://opencitations.hypotheses.org/3774

@OpenAIRE

During 2024, the paths of OpenAIRE and OpenCitations have kept crossing, since the OpenAIRE Graph has become a provider of citation links to #OpenCitations. Congratulations to OpenAIRE for last year's achievements! We are looking forward to a new year of collaboration 🚀
