Betreff: Blog ist live

Dear all,

A new blog Scholarly Communications in Transition, https://in-transition.at/, 
has gone online today. You can find the first blog post here: 
https://in-transition.at/transitions-in-scholarly-communications/. The blog 
post are available both in English and German.

The Scholarly Communications in Transition blog addresses the changing 
landscape of scholarly communications and the phenomena these transitions bring 
forth. The point of departure for each blog post are issues, questions, 
musings, and reflections stemming from a project on Predatory Publishing, a 
sub-project of Austrian Transition to Open Access 2 (AT2OA2), bringing 
librarians and employees from various administrative departments at academic 
institutions together, such as research services. Blog posts are written by 
project team members, detailed information can be found here.

Over a four-year period, the mandate of the Predatory Publishing sub-project is 
to create an information infrastructure about predatory publishing to provide 
information to Austrian academic institutions as well as foster the existing 
community of practice. This objective is accompanied by in-depth research that 
not only focuses on predatory publishing as an emergent phenomenon in the wake 
of concerted efforts to further open access, but also as an indicator of far 
reaching transformations in the area of scholarly communications.

The Scholarly Communications in Transition blog aims to address various key 
issues related to predatory publishing, to question common narratives and 
beliefs, situating predatory publishing in a broader context pertaining to 
scholarly communications, and reflecting on predatory publishing and related 
phenomena as manifestations of profound changes in both academia and scholarly 
communications.

We are looking forward to your comments.

Best wishes,
Clara
