🌍 OSMI is heading to #LIBER2026 (2–4 July)!
Join us at two sessions:
📌 Networking Power Session (Thu 2 July, 17.00) → chat with our team & explore collaborations
📌 Session 14 (Fri 3 July, 9.00) → our coordinator @BraccoLaetitia presents "Let's not Recreate Rankings: The Principles of Open Science Monitoring"
Working on open science monitoring at your institution? We'd love to meet – drop a comment or DM us! 👇
📣 When others talk about your work, you know it's making an impact:
🔹 Science Europe cited OSMI's frameworks in their position statement on Open Science & Research Assessment Reform
🔹 The French Open Science Barometer recognised OSMI's role in uniting nearly 200 members worldwide
🔹 Make Data Count referenced OSMI's landscape mapping in their blog

📊 How does PLOS' Open Science Indicators stack up against the OSMI Principles?
Iain Hrynaszkiewicz and Cameron Neylon share a self-assessment of the PLOS OSI dashboard — one of the first real-world applications of the Principles of Open Science Monitoring — reflecting on openness, responsible use, scalability, and measuring what matters.
This kind of community-oriented self-assessment is exactly what open science monitoring needs more of.

Iain Hrynaszkiewicz & Cameron Neylon The PLOS OSI dashboard In March 2026, working with Cameron Neylon, PLOS released a prototype dashboard enabling exploration of its Open Science Indicators (OSI) dataset. The dashboard prototype is itself an experiment. PLOS has been producing OSI in partnership with DataSeer since 2022, regularly updating and releasing the OSI data ...
🌍 The Principles of Open Science Monitoring are now speaking more languages!
Following the recent presentation of the OSMI infographic, we're pleased to announce it is now available in 9 languages: Arabic, Finnish, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese, Slovenian, and Spanish.

OSMI's Laetitia Bracco will be speaking at the CHORUS Forum on Research Data Management on 20 May 2026 (11 AM–12 PM EDT, free online).
The session will cover:
🌐 How Research Data Management has become core infrastructure for the global research ecosystem
🌐 The role of funder mandates and publisher policies in driving open data compliance
🌐 Applying FAIR principles and accurate metadata in practice

Research Data Management (RDM) and Open Data compliance have become core requirements of the global research ecosystem, driven by funder mandates, publisher policies, regulatory frameworks, and expectations around research integrity and reproducibility. With major public and private funders now requiring structured data management planning and data sharing under the principle “as open as possible, as closed as necessary.” At the same time, publishers are increasingly mandating data availability statements and repository deposition as conditions of publication. These forces position RDM as essential research infrastructure rather than an optional best practice. Effective compliance requires understanding and applying both FAIR principles, open data appropriately and accurate metadata.
Science Europe's latest position statement on Connecting Open Science and Research Assessment Reform recognises #OSMI as one of the key frameworks for comparing #openscience progress across institutional, national, and international levels. 🙌
#opensciencemonitoring matters – and we're glad the call is getting louder. 📊

🗓 Six months since the Principles of Open Science Monitoring were published — and they're already shaping practice.
🎉 We’re delighted to share the first round of institutional testimonials showing the adoption and usage of the Principles. Read more here: https://open-science-monitoring.org/applying-the-principles-of-open-science-monitoring-first-testimonials/
✉️ Want to share your experience with the Principles? We’d love to hear from you! Drop us a comment below or an email.
Since their release in July 2025, the Principles of Open Science Monitoring have begun to gain traction internationally. Welcomed by numerous organisations, they are increasingly referenced by stakeholders across the world (find out more). To mark the sixth month since the publication of the Principles, the OSMI Coordination Committee launched a survey to gather opinions ...
Launched in July 2025, the Principles of Open Science Monitoring are gaining traction worldwide. A survey of early adopters reveals how universities, research centres, and policymakers are adopting three core pillars:
✅ Relevance & impact
✅ Transparency & reproducibility
✅ Self-assessment & responsible use
Key findings:
🔹Open-source tools & datasets ensure transparency
🔹User-friendly interfaces improve accessibility
🔹Principles integrated into institutional policies
Following the launch of the Principles of Open Science Monitoring in July 2025, a survey was conducted by OSMI in late 2025 to look at how early adopters across the global research community are beginning to put them into practice. With feedback from 18 countries, the results highlight a commitment to the three core pillars: ...
🚀 OSMI’s first Steering Board meeting wrapped up on 18 March 2026! Key takeaways:
✅ Nominations:
- @fresseng as Steering Board Chair
- @BraccoLaetitia as Coordination Committee Chair
✅ Progress:
- OSMI Principles survey results coming soon!
- Working groups shared updates & challenges
✅ Next steps:
The Board engaged in breakout sessions to refine OSMI’s high-level vision, with outcomes to be presented in the next meeting.
Exciting times ahead for OSMI! 🎉 #OSMI #opensciencemonitoring
