Open funder metadata is essential for true research transparency - LSE Impact Funder metadata is vital to understanding where research comes from & how it is used. But, to be truly effective it needs to be open to all.

Strategies for publishers to make scholarly metadata openly available | Septentrio Conference Series Research information, or scholarly metadata, is important for decision making around strategic priorities, distribution of resources, and evaluation of researchers and institutions. It is also used by funders, institutions and governments to assess the effect of policies, and by researchers and societal stakeholders to find and assess research results. The value of openly available research information is increasingly recognized, as it supports fair research assessment and makes it possible for everyone to find and assess relevant research.

🌍 New panel at #Munin2025! 🌍
How can publishers make more – and better – scholarly metadata openly available?

Is there a relationship between the metadata publishers submit to Crossref and the submission systems they use? 🤔

#scholarlypublishing #openmetadata

"Data should be open and searchable even by non-library devices in order to increase interoperability and reuse." - there's open again... and interoperable, and reusable.
It's the FAIR Principles - #openmetadata

#OpenMetadata powers all actions via its API. Together with the Python SDK, this is a superpower.

Not only does it help us build at lightning speed, but also helps users automate and script anything they need.

Feed got full of how goat DeepSeek was for creating their own storage system and processing tooling on top. My main thought was "damn I'd like to be that cool".

Then, I remembered we are also building many things from scratch at #OpenMetadata to really nail down our needs.
