Das Webinar der @KFiD_GS zur Vorstellung des Offenen Registers für Auszeichnungen und Preise (#ORAP) beginnt gerade. Ich freue mich sehr, dass es damit nun losgeht. Solch ein Register ist wirklich ein Desiderat und es ist extrem erfreulich, dass die KFID hier in Richtung #OpenResearchInformation denkt!

First look into the awards category of #OpenAlex. From a German perspective, it seems pretty useless so far. Only EU projects seem to be connected to German research institutions. And there is only one #DFG project with at least one work connected after 2003: https://openalex.org/awards?page=1&filter=funder.id:f4320320879,funded_outputs_count:1-,start_year:2003- - and only connected works for 2000-2002. Lots of DFG projects have strange titles. BMFTR projects have neither dates nor titles: https://openalex.org/awards?page=8&filter=funder.id:f4320321114&sort=start_year:desc

There is a lot to improve.

Highlights from the post:
✨ funding statements alone aren’t sufficient
🔎 enables analysis & verification across outputs
🏗️ infrastructure matters (e.g. Crossref Grant IDs) + stronger workflows
🔗 clear roles for funders, publishers & infrastructure providers

@OpenAlex seems to have some problems today. It's really slow. Just in time for a short presentation about it today at @tibhannover.

Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Open Research Information in Action: Institutional Journeys Toward Open Systems. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

Organized by the Barcelona Declaration’s working group on replacing closed systems (WG4) and the Helmholtz Open Science Office, this session showcases four institutional journeys from Europe and Latin America: University of Milan (Italy), Universidad de Antioquia (Colombia), Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (Netherlands), and the Leibniz Association (Germany). Speakers will share why they signed the Barcelona Declaration; how they use or are moving to open, non-proprietary systems; the governance and technical steps taken; and key challenges and benefits. These cases offer practical pathways and actionable insights for institutions considering similar transformations.
