Sorbonne’s embrace of free research platform shakes up academic publishing https://on.ft.com/48xmIpP

#FinancialTimes coverage of the decision by #SorbonneUniversity to cancel its #WebOfScience subscription and replace it by @OpenAlex.

I wouldn't be surprised to see more news items like this in 2024!

Next Tuesday #SorbonneUniversity organizes a highly interesting online event 'Focus on Open Science' https://scholarly.events/chapter-xliii-sorbonne/. Registration is still open!

I will talk about the #OpenEdition of the @cwts #LeidenRanking, to be released next month. @neesjanvaneck

There will also be important discussions about developments toward open research information in France, including the recent decision by #SorbonneUniversity to move from proprietary to open bibliographic databases https://www.sorbonne-universite.fr/en/news/sorbonne-university-unsubscribes-web-science.

Important news:

#SorbonneUniversity will "discontinue its subscription to #WebOfScience publication database and #Clarivate bibliometric tools ... opening the way for open, free and participative tools." https://www.sorbonne-universite.fr/en/news/sorbonne-university-unsubscribes-web-science

Sorbonne's "choices are in line with those of @cwts, which has announced it is making openness of research information a priority, and is currently working on fully transparent and reproducible version of its rankings, based on open data from @crossref and @OpenAlex."
