Keep out of bogus journals, SPPU tells researchers
by Siva Shankar Kimidi 19 Jul '15

19 Jul '15

Dear Moderator kindly post this: Keep out of bogus journals, SPPU tells researchers *Puts out a list of 700 publications; names them 'predatory'* Worry about the spawning of research journals, compromising on ethical vetting of submissions, has gripped the world of academia as never before. Studies show that questionable journals are being particularly accessed by authors from developing countries, including India. The Union Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) has tasked the three-member committee set up to review the nation's academic performance to also prepare national guidelines for ethical research publications. But, stealing a march over other varsities in this process, Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) has warned its research scholars to steer clear of at least 700 predatory journals and publishers, to start with. The varsity is also working on identifying more such journals locally and across different faculties. for more kindly click on the below link.

Fwd: Science Europe proposes ‘diamond engagement’ open access plan
by Subbiah Arunachalam 15 Jul '15

15 Jul '15

Friends: Europe is planning to go open the 'arXiv' way, i.e. making all publications be first released as preprints in a repository and interlinking all such repositories. There is one difference: Unlike arXiv, the European effort would like authors to deposit their papers after they incorporate suggestions by the referees. This is what we should be doing in India. The community of academic and research librarians may take the lead. Regards. Arun Science Europe proposes ‘diamond engagement’ open access plan 14 July 2015Emma Stoye <http://www.rsc.org/chemistryworld/more/?author=98> An association of European funding organisations – Science Europe <http://www.scienceeurope.org/> – has proposed improving open access for European research by encouraging researchers to share their work via publically funded digital data repositories. In an opinion paper <http://www.scienceeurope.org/urls/socialopen>, Science Europe’s scientific committee for the social sciences points out that researchers can legally deposit accepted versions of papers (after they have been peer reviewed but before they have been edited and formatted for publication by a journal) into repositories hosted by university libraries or research institutes. Research could then be made available to the public in the form of ‘digital drafts’, regardless of whether the eventual publication ends up being open access. Through a joint effort between policymakers and research institutions that it calls ‘diamond engagement’ the committee says these practices could ‘help change the culture of academic publication where it is to be expected that first publication of research will be in OA digital repositories’. Their proposal includes three key recommendations: the establishment of open access partnerships between stakeholders such as universities, researchers, libraries and institutional publishers; the standardisation of policies across Europe to make sure data repositories fit in with the requirements of researchers; and the development of systems to incentivise the use of these repositories. ‘The scientific committee would like to encourage research funders, managers of digital repositories, researchers and end users of research to combine forces to foster a culture that aims to ensure that all research outputs are available in an open, traceable and interoperable manner,’ the paper says. They say these activities can exist in parallel with publishing practices such as gold open access, and suggest their plan could be carried out using existing initiatives such as OpenAIRE <http://www.rsc.org/chemistryworld/2015/07/OpenAIRE>, a network that links open access data repositories across Europe. http://www.rsc.org/chemistryworld/2015/07/science-europe-open-access-diamon… Arun http://orcid.org/0000-0002-4398-4658 http://www.researcherid.com/rid/B-9925-2009 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
