Earlier this week, the #scholcommlab published a Statement of Support for PACBI Principles. With it, I reject my university's (SFU's) complicity in the ongoing genocide in Gaza, and call them out for restricting my ability to direct the work of @PublicKnowledgeProject@mastodon.social in a principled way. www.scholcommlab.ca/pacbi/

New Preprint! Collaboration w/ @OpenAlex@mastodon.social, @stefhaustein@fediscience.org and @lariviev@mastodon.social: An analysis of the suitability of OpenAlex for bibliometric analyses.
High-level comparisons with Scopus and lots of details to better understand OpenAlex. Just as importantly, we also lay some "Remaining Core Questions for the Community". MORE NEEDED!
Hopefully this is just the first of many studies that can help improve OpenAlex to make goals of @BarcelonaDORI@mastodon.social a reality. https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.17663
