🔍 How do we know if #OpenScience is truly working?

A new article by Nabila Salisu & Julián D. Cortés (OSMI WG1) shows why monitoring must go beyond easy metrics and focus on equity, inclusion, and real societal impact — using the UNESCO Open Science pillars as a global framework.

🔎 Key findings:
▪️Globally, the OS monitoring movement has technical capability, but faces hurdles & inconsistent resourcing
▪️Open source tools and data mining help institutions monitor, but legal ambiguities & national copyright restrictions limit metadata sharing
▪️Metadata is abundant, but quality is inconsistent
▪️Collab through shared governance frameworks appeals to institutions, but only with clear rules around licensing, data protection, attribution

Mapping the State of Open Infrastructure: Insights from OSMI Working Group 4 - Open science monitoring initiative - OSMI

Mapping the State of Open Infrastructure: Insights from OSMI Working Group 4 Cristina Huidiu & Pragya Chaube, Working Group 4 Co-chairs When we talk about open science, we often think about open-access journals or FAIR data. But there’s another layer that quietly powers it all — the infrastructure that captures, connects, and analyses research metadata. ...

Open science monitoring initiative - OSMI

Success in open science monitoring means a sustainable, globally equitable, community-driven metadata infrastructure. No single institution can build that infrastructure alone.

OSMI’s Working Group 4 ‘Shared resources and infrastructure to analyze scholarly outputs’ Co-chairs, Pragya Chaube and Cristina Huidiu have published the results of their survey ‘Mapping the State of Open Science Infrastructure,’ which help envision how the open science monitoring movement can succeed.
