Dear all,
OpenCitations [1], the EXCITE Project [2] and Europe PubMed Central [3] are organising a Workshop on Open Citations at the University of Bologna in Bologna, Italy [4] on September 3-5, 2018 – https://workshop-oc.github.iohttps://workshop-oc.github.io/.
Our idea is to have:
* Day One and Day Two of the Workshop: Formal presentations and discussions on the creation, availability, uses and applications of open bibliographic citations, and of bibliometric studies based upon them. This will involve both invited and contributed presentations. * Day Three: A Hack Day on Open Citations to see what services can be prototyped using large volumes of open citation data.
We look forward to welcoming all those interested in open citation data, including researchers, computer scientists, scholarly publishers, academic administrators, research funders and policy makers. The workshop will be organised around the following topics:
1. Opening up citations: Initiatives, collaborations, methods and approaches for the creation of open access to bibliographiccitations. 2. Policies and funding: Strategies, policies and mandates for promoting open access to citations, and transparency and reproducibility of research and research evaluation. 3. Publishers and learned societies: Approaches to, benefits of, and issues surrounding the deposit, distribution, and services for open bibliographic metadata and citations. 4. Projects: Metrics, visualizations and other projects. The uses and applications of open citations, and bibliometric analyses and metrics based upon them
