How We Strengthen the Foundations of Open Research At our third workshop, we didn’t just talk about systems; we mapped them. Real infrastructure isn’t just physical. This is how we strengthen the foundations of open research. #OpenResearch #ResearchInfrastructure #PublicEngagement

Our first #Metadata Sprint welcomed participants with different skills to work on 12 projects—from enriching citations to visualising geographic data using Crossref metadata. Read the full blog: https://tinyurl.com/3avwz42t
How FAIR is your metadata?

I listend to the new podcast about #OpenScienceTalk on the Lorraine Model with @fresseng and enjoyed it very much! 👌 #ResearchInfrastructure #Researchdata https://open.spotify.com/episode/6jqHw8Y4Ae7v6J7KBSAMcO?si=JWILer6pTQyu1BwvWWf-xA
A huge thanks to @BridgetAlmas for the deep dive on @Lyrasis.
It was great to explore the many ways that the Lyrasis Organizational Home supports the sustainability of #ResearchInfrastructure and how it aligns with the mission of #academicOSPOs. We look forward to more discussions in the future!

The next ARDC Community Data Lab co-design session will be focused on building tools for HASS research using 'Public Interest Documents' – this includes things like Hansard and other government documents. It's run next week on 25 Feb. I think it's important to get more historians involved, so sign up now to help shape the project. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ardc-community-data-lab-co-design-workshop-public-interest-documents-tickets-1245620206569?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=1 #researchInfrastructure #histodons #ozHist @histodons
Funding cuts are jeopardizing the open knowledge infrastructure we need for everything from climate research to global health preparedness.
We need to act NOW to protect these vital resources. Sign the statement and join the movement to support open infrastructure: https://investinopen.org/blog/statement-of-support-for-a-global-research-ecosystem/
Last week's grant freeze fiasco underscores the need for diversified revenue and community-owned solutions.
Our latest blog post examines the $16.5M+ in federal grants awarded to open infrastructure projects over the past 5 years, highlighting the precariousness of the space right now.
The ARDC is holding an event on 18 February to begin planning the next phase of the Community Data Lab (CDL): https://ardc.edu.au/project/ardc-community-data-lab/ If you're interested in developing digital tools and resources for HASS research you should go along!
I worked on phase 1 of the CDL and thought I'd put together some rough ideas on what the CDL might be and do: https://updates.timsherratt.org/2025/01/31/a-community-data-lab-cdl.html #GLAM #digitalHumanities #researchInfrastructure

Recently there were some invite-only discussions about National Digital Research Infrastructure, including one on #HASS & #GLAM. The questions and summary from the HASS/GLAM discussions are here: https://www.education.gov.au/national-research-infrastructure/resources/ndri-targeted-discussion-ndri-humanities-social-sciences-and-glam (h/t @Infoventurer)
Most of it's pretty obvious, but I'm encouraged by the concluding para: "Overall, rather than a single, all encompassing facility, the focus should be on developing an interconnected ecology of systems and tools, with emphasis on collaboration, accessibility, and adaptability to various research needs." So glad we're finally moving away from the idea of a single platform...
Lars Bernard (@nfdi4earth, #Base4NFDI, and more) kicks off a series of brief talks, setting the stage for a World Café💬 on the potential interaction between #EOSC and @NFDI. Exciting discussions ahead on #ResearchInfrastructure, #ResearchDataManagement, #Services, #FAIR, #OpenScience, #Federation, and the joint future of #EOSC and #NFDI! #EOSCxNFDI
