It's all too clear, isn't it. #WebOfScience would like the status quo to not change at all – they are profiting enormously from it. Whereas scientists would like the status quo to change – our grants are being drained dry from publishing fees, our libraries are also drained dry from subscription fees, and academic administrators spend countless moneys on bibliometrics supplied by Clarivate to "evaluate" academics for their "throughput" – in quotes because using these words for what they actually do (counting papers and citations) is a perversion.
By the way #Clarivate owns #EndNote, #Publons and #ScholarOne – we really ought to not use *any* of these. It's in our power.

Has Clarivate been hacked? 👀 [serious question fwiw]
"In March 2024 the journal’s Scholar One site was affected. The “Journal Home” link mysteriously changed to the fraudulent site – Scholar One were unable to tell us who made/requested the change, or how they did it?"
If your journal uses Scholar One (which is an expensive error in itself), you might want to do some urgent security checks!

#Clarivate will support conversational #AI in its tools and allow an AI company to train on its #paywalled #data.
https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/clarivate-announces-partnership-with-ai21-labs-as-part-of-its-generative-ai-strategy-to-drive-growth-301857301.htmlOr at least that's my plain-language summary of a pretty opaque press release.
Note that Clarivate owns or controls the #WebOfScience, #JournalImpactFactor (#JIF) data, #Publons, #EndNote, #ScholarOne, and #ProQuest.

Submitting a manuscript through Wiley's #ResearchExchange was a nicely hassle-free process compared to #ScholarOne. I can see why they are ditching the old one for this. My only complaint is the lack of support for #LaTeX documents. Converting .tex/.pdf to .docx is not fun when MS Word does not understand vector graphics, tables or umlaut characters (e.g. äö).
On a related note, my final PhD article is submitted. Time to go full-blast on the synopsis.
