The #UKSG2023 Cybersecurity 101 panel is very leery of using open source software in university library systems - they say it's too vulnerable. #Cybersecurity #OpenSource #FOSS #Libraries #LibraryMastodon

How do the COPE and NISO retraction guidelines interact?

COPE looks at the decision on whether to retract; NISO looks at what to do once an article is retracted, so the rest of the scholarly ecosystem becomes aware - @tac_NISO

Sneak peak at #UKSG2023 from Kate Petherbridge and Dominique Walker about the founding of the Open Institutional Publishing Association for UK-based institutional publishers (‘new’ university presses, library-led publishing) who are either fully or partly #OpenAccess. Aim is to create a "community of practice", share best practices, and have a collective voice. See research.jiscinvolve.org for more details or email [email protected]

Quoting Alan Dix, @lizziegadd says "Metrics are rubbish... but people are (far) worse."

#PeerReview of outputs can be even more biased (on gender or field, for example) than are #Bibliometrics.

This supports the use of #ResponsibleMetrics.
