We're excited to announce that together with STM & @crossref we've renewed our joint statement on research data. Join these efforts by endorsing one or more of the 12 best practices in research data sharing. Read & share the statement: https://doi.org/10.5438/cstd-5t12

Joint Statement on Research Data - DataCite

STM, DataCite, and Crossref are pleased to announce an updated joint statement on research data. In 2012, DataCite and STM drafted an initial joint statement on the linkability and citability of research data. With nearly 10 million data citations tracked, thousands of repositories adopting data citation best practices, thousands of journals adopting data policies, data availability statements and establishing persistent links between articles and datasets, and the introduction of data policies by an increasing number of funders, there has been significant progress since. It now seems appropriate to focus on providing updated recommendations for the various stakeholders involved in research data sharing.

#CSPC2023 panel on Fostering European partnerships https://site.pheedloop.com/event/CSPC2023/schedule/SESP32ORPGOZ0LIH9 notes that in a study on international partnerships for Canadian SMEs, the most difficult part was finding the right partner (higher than supply chain, access to funding, or regulatory issues). Surprising.

Release of the Saskatchewan Indigenous Subject Headings https://librarianship.ca/news/sk-indigenous-subject-headings/

The goal of the Saskatchewan Indigenous Subject Headings (SK ISH) project was to work with Indigenous Peoples and groups to determine what terms are preferred and then translate those terms into subject headings to be used by libraries in the province.

Does anyone at #CSPC2023 have a Macbook pro charger (the new-ish MagSafe one) that I could borrow at some point today? Mine didn't make it to my luggage.

Well, not that he asked me, but my response is: that’s a bad idea. We are in a global world and Canada will become inward looking and behind and that will negatively affect the domestic economy.

Chad Gadfield @U15ca asks the panel: “What do you think about the idea that Canada has to get its domestic economy in shape before engaging internationally?” #CSPC2023.

Leslie Church @LeslieChurch “We wouldn’t have come through the pandemic without researcher mobilizing themselves- how do we do that in non-pandemic times? Build economic growth but also address inequality, mental health, housing” Canada has not been doing well on this. #CSPC2023

Great summary in the #OA #OpenAccess panel discussion by Stefanie Haustein
@UOttawa
on average APC charges versus what actual average costs *should* be. And second slide on what we are paying to the big 5 publishers in Canada. #CSPC2023
