What is also striking is how that APC diversity scales with metrics like impact factor for an arguably identical service. E.g., Cell Rep £4,300; Curr Biol £5,700; Dev/Mol/Cancer Cell £7,000; Cell £7,800. Elsevier’s full APC pricing is here: elsevier.com/__data/promis_m…

It's Friday. So I asked GPT-3 to write a poem about #OpenScience. Here's what it wrote.
Open science is the way to go
The benefits are clear to see
It allows for collaboration
And speeds up the process
Of scientific discovery

This account by @michael_upshall of the launch of @science_octopus yesterday encapsulates my thoughts about it. It's a radical and interesting idea - but a huge hill to climb. I wish them luck. consultmu.co.uk/will-octopus…

It's not always easy to find a preprint's peer-review history, associated journal decisions etc. Read about DocMaps, a project to improve what RC project leader @tlemberger calls "the plumbing of scientific publishing"(@sever is also featured in this post)

This is an interesting thread.
Librarians do what they believe most researchers want - but due to the scholarly publishing system, it is difficult to move away from big deals without a great deal of inconvenience .
It's time to come up with alternatives (subject based?)
For years university librarians complained that publishers' subscription prices were financially unsustainable. Today they are signing transformative deals with the same publishers and presenting it as a solution. Why will these prove any more sustainable? web.archive.org/web/20120606…
