Enhancing Diamond Open Access: How OS-APS Facilitates Media-Neutral Scholarly Publishing
No full textScience Europe, cOAlition S, OPERAS, and the French Agence nationale de la recherche (ANR) presented an action plan in 2022 to establish an "equitable, community-driven, academic-led and -owned" publication infrastructure, marking a significant step in developing the Open Diamond publication model. Despite over 30,000 Diamond OA journals worldwide, challenges persist, including funding, long-term quality assurance, sustainable publication workflows, and scalability options (Action Plan for Diamond Open Access).
The Open Source Academic Publishing Suite (OS-APS) addresses these challenges, promoting sustainable Diamond OA publications. This open-source application supports a single-source workflow for media-neutral publishing, accommodating formats like PDF, HTML and JATS-XML, and integrates with platforms such as OJS, OMP and DSpace. OS-APS includes Pandoc for DOCX import and uses community-shared open source templates, requiring minimal technical expertise. This enables small and medium-sized publishers to produce scholarly articles and journals efficiently, enhancing the OA Diamond model‘s viability.
OS-APS‘s open-source nature and user-driven development culture allow extensive customization through open source code development. The Specialized Information Service for Philosophy, the official test user, has utilized OS-APS for media-neutral publication of various OA journals, including the "2nd Philosophical Symposia of the DFG." A comparison between the media-neutral 2nd Symposia and the traditionally published 1st Symposia shows a significant increase in article visibility due to more flexible usage options. The access rates of the 2nd Symposia articles more than doubled in a short time compared to the 1st Symposia and additionally, a shift in users reading habits can be noted.
OS-APS can be pivotal in establishing Diamond OA as a sustainable publication model, promoting FAIR principles, democratizing knowledge and strengthening an independent scientific sector.
In our workshop, we will provide a comprehensive insight into the practical use of OS-APS, offering an overview of the project and its goals, ensuring participants understand the necessary details and context. The second part will be a practical session, covering the entire application process from Docker installation to article publication in Open Journal Systems (OJS), designed for both experienced software developers and people with little technical know how. In this way, participants should be able to set up their own OS-APS instance in order to be able to use the advantages of the software independently.Enhancing Diamond Open Access: How OS-APS Facilitates Media-Neutral Scholarly Publishing

Tales from the Engine Room: what\u27s ahead for OA and what’s behind us
No full textThis presentation looks at the history of Open Access from the perspective of experienced software engineers in the sector. Over almost 25 years, Richard has been involved in local, national and international efforts in all aspects of the development of repositories and the infrastructure services that support them. Steve came into this field bright-eyed from University a decade ago. It is about what we’ve actually seen be developed and become reality in that time, and how it connects to the goals and desires of the community. It asks what lessons we can learn from that time, and what that might tell us about the future of OA, and whether it is alive and well or under threat. What is the role that the repository has to play in the coming publishing paradigms which aim to improve global publishing equity (such as Diamond and Overlay Journals) and how can we as a community enable it.

Yrkesreisen: Tre fortellinger
No full textThe learning narratives in this book are based on retold occupational and life experiences, conversations, and documents. They are grounded in a larger text material from interviews with several vocational apprentices in the hotel industry. In addition, documents from occupational experiences and documents from retold school and professional histories have been used. Some stories are also inspired by diaries, newspapers, and notes. The material from diaries also includes poetic elements, and thus also elements of fiction.
Part 1 (Johannes) is a learning narrative based on five individual anonymised research interviews with receptionist apprentices in the period 2021–2022. The text bears the stamp of paraphrased own experiences within professional practice in hotel subjects and teaching within vocational pedagogy in VGO, as well as paraphrased educational courses from the hotel industry from own family members. The text can be read as part of an overall learning narrative about learning in practice, at work and in life. In addition, there is a helpful dimension in Johannes\u27 hidden but well-developed sense of smell. He can recognize his guests long before he sees them.
Part 2 (Ole) is based on my own experienced and anonymised learning stories from my own professional practice at sea and on land. This text can also be read as part of an overall learning narrative about learning from one\u27s own practice, at work and in life.
Part 3 (Jon) is based on my father\u27s complex life experiences, school and professional stories from a long life in the galley and in military kitchens, and from his old diaries, stories and notes which have now been rewritten and anonymised. Roald Thunberg was also the illegitimate son of the Finnish skater Clas Thunberg. This has also previously been reproduced in the History of the Winter Olympics (Lahlum and Tronstad 2021, p. 67).Å skrive Yrkesreisen kom i stand i en forskningstermin. Teksten har tre deler. Læringsfortellingene er basert på gjenfortalte yrkes- og livserfaringer, samtaler og dokumenter. Det ligger til grunn et større tekstmateriale fra intervjuer med en rekke yrkeslærlinger i hotellbransjen. I tillegg er det brukt dokumenter fra yrkeserfaringer - og dokumenter fra gjenfortalte skole- og yrkeshistorier. Noen fortellinger er også inspirert av dagbøker, aviser og notater. Materialet fra dagbøker har også poetiske innslag, og dermed også innslag av fiksjon. Hvis boken skal plasseres i en sjanger, vil forfatteren hovedsakelig foreslå sakprosa. Forsknings-faglitteratur er relevant for kapittel 1 og 2 som er basert på observerte og gjenfortalte yrkeserfaringer og hendelser. Kapittel 3 er kanskje mer en episk sjanger hvor deler av teksten er inspirert av dagbøker, notater og muntlige fortellinger.
Del 1 (Johannes): Denne innledende delen omhandler praktisk læring for et fremtidig yrke. Fortellingen tar utgangspunkt i informasjoner fra fem individuelle og anonymiserte intervjuer med resepsjonistlærlinger i perioden 2021–2022. I tillegg har kapittelet innslag fra yrkesrelaterte erfaringer, og referanser fra brev og dagbøker. I tillegg til å lære seg et yrkesfag, beskrives en hjelpende dimensjon i hovedpersonens velutviklede luktesans. Johannes kan identifisere mange av sine hotellgjester lenge før han ser eller hører dem.
Del 2 (Ole): Teksten er basert på erfarte, nedskrevne og anonymiserte læringshistorier fra yrkespraksis i byssa til sjøs og på hoteller i Norge. Denne teksten kan også leses som en del av en helhetlig fortelling om læring i og erfaring fra en kompleks yrkespraksis. En hjelpende læringsdimensjon dukker opp om natten gjennom kloke tips og advarsler i de uregelmessige drømmene til hovedpersonen.
Del 3 (Jon): Teksten er basert på komplekse livserfaringer spesielt med vanskeligheter tilknyttet skolen. Yrkeshistorier fra et langt liv i byssa til sjøs og på militær-kjøkkener langs kysten er hentet fra gamle dagbøker, fortellinger og notater. Dette materialet er blitt omskrevet og anonymisert. I tillegg til å skulle lære seg et yrkesfag, beskrives en hjelpende dimensjon fra en usynlig kraft. Tydelige tips og advarsler kommer gjennom stemmen fra Magnus. En onkel som døde for mange år siden. Hovedpersonen Jon var sjømann og en uekte sønn til den finske skøyteløperen Clas Thunberg. Dette er også tidligere blitt gjengitt i Historien om Vinter-OL (Lahlum og Tronstad 2021, s. 67)

The Ethics of Ownership: Developing Guidelines on Data Ownership in Participatory Researchers
No full textParticipatory Research, including Citizen Science and other forms of co-created research, have lately been exciting considerable interest; and rightly so. These new additions to the Open Science landscape address a number of institutional and funder concerns around, for example, the impact of scholarly research. Further, collaborations between academic and non-academic researchers have the potential to address many of the deeper concerns of Open Science professionals, around transparency and accessibility, for example. Recognising the importance of this and the need for institutional support, in 2023, the University of Edinburgh created the first library role dedicated to Participatory Research in the UK.
Growing interest and investment in Participatory Research has, inevitably, thrown up challenges for those of us working in Open Science. Among the more ethically and legally complex questions are those concerning intellectual property rights relating to research data. Ownership of research data may be relatively straightforward when the collaborators are professional researchers at recognised research institutions. When those collaborators are themselves the collectors and creators, sometimes the actual subjects, of the data, however, the situation becomes significantly more complicated. We no longer have one seemingly simple question – who owns the data – but rather a cluster of rather more difficult ones. What does ownership mean to non-professional and professional researchers and how does it play out in practice? What are the different motivations and expectations at work here? And how can all this be documented and implemented in a way that is fair to all the parties involved? The contracts commonly employed in ordinary academic collaborations are unlikely to be of use here, not least because legal and quasi-legal instruments tend less towards mitigating power differentials and more to enforcing them. They may also represent a barrier to vulnerable and marginalised communities, thereby discouraging the very involvement that is being sought.
Evidently, then, the question goes beyond legal rights, encompassing a range of important ethical issues around control, access, and re-use of data. Given the complexities of intellectual property rights in general and these issues in particular, the fact that the University of Edinburgh does not, as yet, have any definite guidelines for researchers and their collaborators will come as no surprise.
This presentation aims to lay the groundwork for those guidelines within the context of Open Science: firstly, by identifying and unpacking the ethical issues arising from different understandings of ownership; secondly, by proposing a theoretical foundation; thirdly by considering some practical options for addressing them.
