Website for the Open Citations in Informatics initiative launched
Sign our charter to support open citations and open science in informatics!
A key topic discussed at the workshop organised together with the National Informatics Associations at ECSS 2021 was an initiative to build an Informatics-specific bibliometric resource based on combining the DBLP database with openly available citation data from the Initiative for Open Citations (I4OC).
The meeting agreed to promote an Open Letter to all publishers in the area of Informatics to release their citation data to benefit the common good. Many major publishers are already onboard, and with this Letter we wish to achieve a comprehensive coverage of the citations in the area of Informatics.
The website for this initiative is recently launched and we would like to invite you to join us by signing the Letter and sharing the initiative. The more signatories we collect, the stronger voice we have to promote open citations and open science in informatics!
