In der Zwischenzeit seit der letzten Episode haben sich einige Sachen getan, manches davon erfreulich, manches wiederum weniger erfreulich. Wir schauen mal was so hängengeblieben ist; vor allem geht es um die Reformbemühungen des Urheberrechts-Wissensgesellschafts-Gesetzes (UrhWissG), den Rechtsstreit um Sci-Hub und den Widerstand gegen Elsevier. Viel Spaß! This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License Teilnehmer Matthias Fromm T...

As last year, Konrad visited the WikiCite 2017 event that seeks out „…to design a central bibliographic repository, as well as tools and strategies to improve information quality and verifiability in Wikimedia projects.“ This year he took the opportunity to do a couple of interviews with participants. WikiCite draws a very diverse crowd, so in this episode you’ll hear a couple of short introductions from the „event floor“. Have fun getting to know some of the participants of WikiCite 2017 and he...

Viele andere Dinge fordern gerade unsere Aufmerksamkeit, von daher haben wir etwas gebraucht um mal wieder eine Episode aufzuzeichnen. Das bringt auch uns hin und wieder zum Nachdenken warum man das hier macht und wie man es am besten machen könnte. Vielleicht könnt Ihr als Hörer ja ein paar Punkte davon verstehen, oder zumindest nachvollziehen. Abseits von Metathemen gibt es noch ein/zwei Newsmeldungen und im Nachgang zu dieser Episode gibt es noch ein paar Veröffentlichungen von Gesprächen die...

As you have recognized, Open Science Radio was attending this year’s Barcamp Open Science as well as the Open Science Conference. This episode is a wrap-up together with Guido Scherp, one of the organizers (you’ll know him by now). Guido is providing his impressions from the two events, we share ours and discuss a few things in general, as well as a few of the talks in more detail (this year we caught a few quotes).

DFG-funded research usually is provided with a (nationwide) negotiated license called Allianz-Lizenz which contains special Open-Access regulations that allows the OA publication of research results after a certain embargo period. However, experience shows that the authors (or their instiutional representatives) hardly ever make use of these Open Access rights, often due the related required efforts. The DeepGreen project aims to make the transformation to Open Access repositories easy to use on...

As reproducibility becomes more and more important, one of the main challenges is to support it by making it easier and more accessible. Starting in the domain of geosciences, the DFG-funded project Opening Reproducible Research aims to improve the access to research results that are published over the Internet, and seeks to simplify their reuse in the form of a research compendium. At this poster session Markus Konkol from the Institute of Geoinformatics at WWU Münster provides some insight to ...

One of the important issues in an institutional setting nowadays is, to guarantee reproducibility and quality control during the research process and across the entire data lifecycle. The DFG-funded project CONQUAIRE – Continuous Quality Control for Research Data to Ensure Reproducibility focuses exactly on these tasks. At this poster session Vidya Ayer from the Semantic Computing Group at Bielefeld University provides a short introduction to the project and its main aspects. Links: poster prese...

Tony Ross-Hellauer is the OpenAIRE2020 Scientific Manager at Göttingen State and University Library (University of Göttingen). In its mission to further Open Science, OpenAIRE has investigated those models of peer review that are counted as “Open Peer Review” (OPR). A first step was to collect, categorize, analyze and evaluate the manifold definitions of the concept of Open Peer Review. At this poster session Tony reported about this phase and its outcomes.

As last year, Konrad couldn’t resist to offer a session himself. So this year he moderated one on the issue of overlay journals, a „rising“ practice to make use of articles in repositories and implement a comparatively „small“ technical layer on top of it to offer editor, peer review and journal layout services. Konrad provides a bit of background and insights from his session. Link to the session pad. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Int...

Wir eröffnen das Jahr ganz klassisch mit einem Blick auf die News der letzten Wochen. Die Neuigkeiten werden leider von einer Reihe wenig positiver Entwicklungen überschattet, aber hey, so ist das nun einmal. Man muss durch die Nacht wandern, wenn man die Morgenröte sehen will (5 EUR für’s Phrasenschwein). Wir haben ein wenig Verzug im Beginn der Aufzeichnung gehabt, sodass wir nach hinten raus ein wenig hasten mussten und einige Themen weggelassen haben – wir bitten das zu entschuldigen. Ansons...

Haben wir auch gemacht, aber leider hat die Gesundheit der Veröffentlichung einen Strich durch die Rechnung gemacht. Wir hoffen also Ihr hattet ein paar geruhsame Weihnachtstage und seid gut in das neue Jahr gekommen! Wir danken Euch für Eure Aufmerksamkeit ...
