  1. DataCite DOIs support the preservation, accessibility, and recognition of research software. Join us at our community Open Hours on 23 September to hear from DataCite member organizations about how they use software DOIs for key use cases.
    Register: datacite.org/event/datacite-op

  2. Meet DataCite in person at the International Research Software Conference, Sept 7–8 in Sheffield, UK. Community Specialist Maria Levchenko will discuss DOIs for research software, the DataCite Metadata Schema, and real-world member use cases. Details: datacite.org/event/internation

  3. How can DataCite make theses and dissertations more visible, discoverable, and reusable? Universidade do Porto is assigning DOIs to more than 60,000 dissertations, connecting them to the global scholarly record and improving the impact of their research.

  4. "How many times must one do something to make it a tradition? If two data points are enough, join Dr Suze Kundu for the now TRADITIONAL closing keynote at PIDFest 2026!

    Following on from her closing session at the last PIDFest in Prague, where she romped through a whirlwind review of several packed days of discussion before somehow convincing nearly 300 people to scream the word “Bridgerton!” in unison, Suze returns with another joyful retrospective of the festival’s biggest moments, boldest ideas, accidental themes, infrastructure in-jokes, and perhaps a few slightly unhinged observations from the front row.

    Expect highlights, hindsight, hilarity, and heartwarming reminders of why communities like this matter so much.

    From metadata to memes, governance to global collaboration, this closing keynote will celebrate the people, conversations, and connections that keep knowledge connected.

    Come for the recap. Stay because statistically speaking, audience participation is now also a tradition. And you can't go against data."

  5. Are university journals really "local"?

    Our new preprint shows that national and institutional embeddedness are not the same. University journals may be strongly rooted in national research systems while publishing very few authors from their own universities.

  7. Endlich könnt Ihr euch für das #PIDfest2026 anmelden. Drei Tage lang könnt Ihr mit anderen PID-Interessierten und PID-Anwender*innen (von Newbies bis Profis), euch austauschen und Pläne schmieden, wie Persistent Identifier Open Science weiter voranbringen können.

    Husch, Husch, die Plätze sind schnell weg: pidfest.org/register

    Wenn Ihr noch mehr Leiden und "Connecten" wollt, dann meldet euch gerne auch für das DataCite Connect Event am Vortag an. Egal ob Ihr DataCite-Mitglied seid oder nicht, uns interessiert eure Meinung zu Metadaten, PIDs, und offenen Infrastrukturen und wie wir sie besser machen können:

  10. Since 2024, DataCite's Global Access Fund has supported 20 projects expanding equitable access to DataCite infrastructure. See how training, outreach, and infrastructure development in regions where PID adoption is still emerging are helping to build a more open, global community: doi.org/10.5438/29r5-rk13

  11. Gave a short online lecture on altmetrics today. Main point: altmetrics measure attention, not quality. Sometimes they capture real interest - sometimes just noise. Attention ≠ impact.

  16. Our new paper in Scientometrics with @mikaellaakso & Zehra Taşkın: doi.org/10.1007/s11192-025-055

    We map 19,000+ university journals worldwide and show a major blind spot in research evaluation: most are invisible in selective indexes. UJs sustain bibliodiversity, multilingualism, SSH, and Diamond OA — yet remain structurally undervalued.
