Earlier this week an opinion piece authored by me and a number of great colleagues was published on the @upstream blog. Our piece introduces criteria for innovation-friendly bibliographic databases https://doi.org/10.54900/d3ck1-skq19.

We express our deep concerns about the treatment of @eLife by the #WebOfScience and #Scopus databases. We see this as an example of databases hindering rather than supporting innovation in scholarly communication and research assessment.

We urge stakeholders in the research system to work with innovation-friendly bibliographic databases. Examples of databases that are more supportive of innovation include #Dimensions, @OpenAlex and #EuropePMC, among others.

I very much enjoyed working together on this piece with colleagues associated with several reform initiatives: @DORAssessment, @CoARAssessment, #HELIOSOpen, @cOAlitionS_OA, @ASAPbio, @BarcelonaDORI, and others. Hope there will be more of these collaborations in the future!
