This presentation will give a broad overview of tools and standards that are helping with Open Scholarship today.
You will learn to get a high level overview of all of the most important tools in use, with pointers on where to go to get started with them, or how to level up your knowledge of them so that you can master them. For bonus points within a 30 minute talk, we will also outline how better connections might be made between these tools, and wikipedia and wiki community.
Independently of Wikipedia, the Open Access movement and Open Scholarship have been gaining momentum within mainstream academia for over a decade. Many tools, and data standards, have emerged over that time. These tools range from data standards that are central to academic communication, through to newer ad-hoc tools that are gaining a lot of adoption within academic circle.
Specifically we will aim to cover (and do please add to this list!!)
- DOIs and crossref tools
- ORCIDs and anonymity
- A quick flyby of the main “subject specific” repositories - PubMedCentral & it’s european cousin, the ArXiV, Repec, SSRN.
- Places to get your data - DataCite, Dryad, FigShare
- An overview of cool tools for open science - sciencetoolbox.org
- document wrangling, and how to escape the shadow of Gutenberg (eLife lens, http://oa-sandbox.org, …)
- measure, measure, measure - altmetrics and finding most cited items on wikipedia (http://articlemetrics.github.io/examples/2014/02/25/most-cited-2014-articles-on-wikipedia/).
