Sans doute pas mal de Wikimedia dans le projet Orion :

"Avec l’outil de découverte Primo, l’Abes modernise l’accès public au catalogue en misant sur une structuration enrichie des métadonnées, l’apport de sources externes et une mise en valeur forte des ressources en libre accès."

Projet Orion : l’Abes choisit la suite Clarivate pour sa future galaxie de services - FIL'ABES

Huit mois après la publication de son marché, l’Abes annonce le choix des solutions Alma, Primo et Rapido de l’éditeur Clarivate. Validé à l’unanimité par le Conseil d’Administration le 12 mai 2026 et notifié le 26 mai 2026, ce marché marque le début d’une transition majeure pour l’informatique documentaire mutualisée en France. Un choix stratégique, […]

If you use #AI tools, you probably upload or integrate content you control, and probably make use of real-time internet searches to integrate unpaywalled online content you don't control. What if you could integrate paywalled content licensed by your library? A new #Clarivate tool lets you do just that.

"#NexusConnect…enables users to access university-licensed content and services directly within their #AI chat interface…Clarivate said it is working with leading AI chat agent providers [the article mentions #ChatGPT and #Claude] to develop institutional connectors that address key priorities for universities, including ease of deployment, usage attribution and copyright protection."

PS: Lots of power here and lots of questions. To start: when Nexus Connect gives AI tools access to licensed content, can the tools train on it? Always, sometimes, never? Who decides? If users save the unique URLs of their chats, can they share the chats with people outside their institutions? Will users at subscribing institutions have continuing access to those chats even if their libraries later cancel their subscriptions to the integrated content? Even if the publishers later change their policies on AI tool access and training? Will academic publishers who develop their own AI tools refuse to participate in this program?

Update. "The University of Groningen (UG) and the University Medical Centre Groningen (UMCG) will cancel their licence for the #WebOfScience database with effect from 1 January 2027."

And now #Clarivate #WebOfScience says:

"Roaming Access Expiration Notice
Your roaming access to the Web of Science has expired. You are in a free session of the Web of Science and the functionality may be limited. To gain full access to the Web of Science you will need to renew your roaming access by signing in to Web of Science at your institution."

They really like to snoop don't they?

#Clarivate wants me to review 7 publications added to my #WebOfScience profile, so tried to log in. Figured I'd login via my #OrcidID, but Clarivate want permissions to:

* Add/update your research activities (works, affiliations, etc.)
* Add/update information about you (country, keywords, etc.)
* Read your information with visibility set to Trusted parties

None of those are acceptable to me, denied. Signed in with Google - all they get that way is read access to my name, profile picture and email address.

Where art thou, academic integrity? Musings here from @hugh about incoherence at the centre of Clarivate Nexus.

"[Nexus] is a pitch to #librarians who have correctly identified generative #AI #chatbots as purveyors of endless bullshit, but also know that students + some researchers are going to use them anyway [...] #Clarivate are essentially integrity-washing synthetic text, giving it an #academic sheen without any academic rigour."
