Hi #medlibs and #datalibs and #OpenAccess / #PublicAccess / #OA experts

The FDA policy post-Nelson memo says:

Immediate availability of scholarly publications and underlying scientific data "as soon as practicable" upon formal publication

The whole thing is a quote. The quotation marks are their own. See it at https://www.fda.gov/science-research/about-science-research-fda/public-access-results-fda-funded-scientific-research

So -- what does that mean exactly? Can FDA-funded extramural researchers publish in a subscription journal that requires an embargo before public access is allowed?

If you are wondering why your data librarians, medical librarians, and schol comm librarians just started profusely swearing --

NIH just moved up implementation deadline for Public Access 2.0 from December 31 to July 1.

For Open Access, it's yay, great, lovely. for implementation...there's swearing.

Hi folks, #Dataverse is new at MPOW and I have a question.
As it's set up now, at least, PDF previews in Yale Dataverse are set up such that you see the top of the page, scroll down to read the bottom of the page, and then click a "next" button to get to the next page. Not very convenient.
OSF and Zenodo both have preview viewers where PDFs can be scrolled through.
Is this something special about how Dataverse is set up here? Or is that just the way it is?

@gvwilson
😢 that data management plans now have to include an emergency shutdown/transition plan.... Actually I wonder if any #datalibs have guidance on this?

I'm finally unveiling the #ActivityPub project that has been consuming my weekends: Encyclia, an #ORCID bridge that will make ORCID records followable and interactable on the fediverse. 🙂 It's early-stage and the ORCID following function is not publicly available yet. We're seeking community feedback on functionality and safety aspects. Read more at https://encyclia.pub or follow @encyclia for news! #fediverse #fedidev #scicomm #wisskomm #academicchatter
