💡 Did you know that the Indonesian scholarly publishing community accounts for the largest Open Journal Systems (OJS) user base in the world? How about the fact that Indonesia ranks high in @ORCID_Org records and affiliations?
I just saw the new board members of @ORCID_Org and immediately recognized familiar names. I am really happy to see @Lisalibrarian and Alla Zharinova of our partner library in Kyiv, the SSTL, in there.
