The One Repo demo. Lazy Scholar | Chrome Extension. Blog: A list of Data Journals (in no particular order) – PREPARDE. We don't want to reinvent the wheel when it comes to writing guidelines for data journals, hence it makes sense to see what's out there in terms of pre-exisiting data journals, and what their guidelines are. Below is a (non-exhaustive, in no particular order) list of the data journals we know of, either through personal experience or through internet searches. (Thanks to Tom Pollard for the details about Ubiquity Press and Iryna Kuchma and Simon Hodson for pointing out other journals I missed.) Name of Data Journal Geoscience Data Journal Aims and Scope Geoscience Data Journal provides an Open Access platform where scientific data can be formally published, in a way that includes scientific peer-review. An online-only journal, GDJ publishes short data papers cross-linked to – and citing – datasets that have been deposited in approved data centres and awarded DOIs.

Projet AO | Un site utilisant Université d’Angers. Deuxième billet sur Berlin 11, cette fois sur la position française exprimée par Roger Genet lors de la première session « Open access on the political agenda », à la tribune puis au cours de la pause en fin de session. Roger Genet a rappelé l’engagement fort de la France en faveur de l’Open access et développé trois points sur lesquels je voudrais revenir pour exprimer un point de vue strictement personnel : Il y a contradiction entre la diffusion ouverte et la préservation des systèmes de diffusion.La France, qui soutient l’OA sur tous les fronts, archives et publications, ne peut pas adopter une politique nationale en faveur d’un modèle car aucun n’est susceptible d’être adopté par tous.L’Open access est un mouvement « bottom-up », tout est entre les mains du chercheur, une politique nationale fixant clairement un cadre réglementaire serait nécessairement malvenue.

Roger Genet a expliqué que la politique Open access de la France se déclinait en 4 axes, présentés dans cet ordre : Liber 2013. Libre – a new way to peer-review scientific papers? | Open Science. August 28, 2013 The importance and editorial requirements with regards to peer-review are commonly discussed by scientists, specifically so in the context of Open Access. The question I have been busy with recently (bothering as many journal editors as I could reach): “Does OA journal need editors and what is the role of them in whole process?” Yielded a firm conclusion: Open Access journals and books need peer-review. Full stop. It doesn’t mean, however, there is a consensus on how the peer-review process should be like in the Open Access environment?

Libre is a startup which, in short, wants to change the way how the process of peer-review looks like. Is it workable, is this the future of peer-review as we know it? 00767470, version 1] Le libre accès en France en 2012: Entre immobilisme et innovation.
