[GOAL] Webinar: So can publishing respond to a crisis? An evidence-informed approach - registration open

[Bernie Folan]

OASPA is delighted to welcome you to its first webinar of 2022, on January
13, where we take an evidence-informed approach to how publishers and
others in the scholarly communications system responded to the pandemic and
explore what the findings can tell us about the future of scholarly
communication. Full information and registration link at this post

.

The C19 rapid review group
<https://oaspa.org/covid-19-rapid-review-collaboration-initiative/> formed
in direct response to a Wellcome statement
<https://wellcome.org/press-release/sharing-research-data-and-findings-relevant-novel-coronavirus-ncov-outbreak>
calling on the community to make research and data about COVID19 rapidly
and freely accessible. The Research on Research Institute
<https://researchonresearch.org/> (RoRI) worked as scientific advisors to
the rapid review group to collect, share and analyse data, not just from
the participants, but about the scholarly communications system as a whole.

The resulting report, including analyses of preprinting, data sharing, peer
review practices and the social and scientific attention that COVID papers
received, was published on Dec 6th 2021
<https://researchonresearch.org/press-release-scholarly-communication-times-of-crisis>
.

In this OASPA webinar, members of RoRI summarise the approach and evidence
that has informed the key recommendations of the report. We also hear
responses to the report.
