What do we need PIDs to be if they're going to save the world?
Addressing questions of geopolitics, trust in knowledge, sustainability models, and the age-old centralisation vs federation question (by questioning the assumptions in the question)

How should Open Science infrastructure evolve, and who should govern it?
OpenAIRE has launched its 2026–2028 Strategy, focusing on trusted infrastructures, responsible AI, monitoring, capacity building, and legal clarity.
Join the discussion with OpenAIRE leadership and the community.

Projects die. Data survives.
While sustainability debates in digital humanities often focus on formats, metadata, and archives, Joudy Sido Bozan asks: who maintains the code, the website, the expertise, and the community once the funding ends?

Open science needs more than access.
It needs infrastructure, incentives, coordination and business models that make reuse practical and participation broader.

Open Access books are widely available, but still too often treated as isolated records.
OpenAIRE and OAPEN are working to change that:
🔹 delivering reliable usage data (COUNTER-conformant)
🔹 improving interoperability across infrastructures
🔹 connecting books to projects, funders, datasets, and more
This is a friendly reminder that we’re seeking input on how institutions monitor the impact of research outputs. Take our citation & impact reporting survey:
