We had a great time at #SSP2023 in Portland last week! Your next chance to see NISO on the road will be in Chicago at #ALAAC23—join us for our annual @BISG /NISO forum on June 23, as well as for sessions (June 24–26) on NISO #standards, the Collaborative Collections Lifecycle Project, upcoming changes affecting federated authentication, and more! https://www.niso.org/events/niso-ala-annual-2023
Enjoying Day 3 at #SSP2023! Thank you to
@gin @alicemeadows Ana Heredia, Anna Jester, and Rob O'Donnell for their informative session on the importance of #metadata to scholarly communications.
Hey #SSP2023! I'm in the lobby between the exhibit hall and the ballroom for the next hour or so if you want to talk Humanities Commons @hello, the fediverse, the importance of community in our work or anything else!
Fascinating case study of rebooting the American Urological Association's publishing program at #SSP2023: "instilling a vibe" of engagement, belonging, inclusion in their processes from beginning to end.
Last day at #SSP2023! Stop by the poster session to learn more from Project Lead Maria Gould about how ROR handles organizational hierarchy, who's integrating ROR, and how you can use ROR's free API to match legacy text-only organization names to ROR IDs.
Thought-provoking session on independent society publishing at #SSP2023. "Should we be partnering anymore?" one director of publications asks.
Interesting point from Amy Brand at #SSP2023 about the link between profit and consolidation motives of large publishers and an attitude in some quarters of the OA movement of "open at any cost."

From the opening plenary of #SSP2023: how do we address misuse of the Journal Impact Factor?

Going forward, Web of Science will assign all indexed journals a JIF rather than just some, so its presence or absence is not mistaken as a trust signal.

On this #DayOfDH2023 I have also been following #SSP2023 on the various platforms — the Society for Scholarly Publishing, that is. If you want to know more about what I’m doing now that’s DH-adjacent but is also pertinent to other realms of scholarship, see this short video I recorded to accompany our SSP poster. https://player.vimeo.com/video/829405877?h=eb6ea7f0b3
