NISO fosters the development and maintenance of standards that facilitate the creation, persistent management, and effective interchange of information so that it can be trusted for use in research and learning. To fulfill this mission, NISO engages libraries, publishers, information aggregators, and other organizations that support learning, research, and scholarship through the creation, organization, management, and curation of knowledge. NISO works with intersecting communities of interest and across the entire lifecycle of an information standard. NISO is a not-for-profit association accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

Standardized language in peer review ensures clarity, consistency, and trust in the publishing process. My Wiley colleague, Michael Willis, was recently invited to write about how the Standard Terminology for Peer Review supports this and is evolving to make researchers and readers better informed about scholarly journal peer review processes. https://ow.ly/sMUM50Ub7oE

Happy to see that our paper on the interdependency of #OpenScholarship and #Bibliodiversity has been published! This paper explores five diverse approaches to building an inclusive ecosystem for acquiring academic knowledge and disseminating research. ?? In particular, 1?? Dr Nokuthula Mchunu Deputy Director of The National Research Foundation of South Africa (NRF) presents the African Open Science Platform —a continent-wide initiative aimed at positioning African scientists at the forefront of data-intensive research. The platform fosters collaboration, creates scalable opportunities to amplify impact, and unites efforts around a shared vision and collective voice. 2?? Maureen P. Walsh, Associate Professor and Scholarly Sharing Strategist at The Ohio State University highlights the strategic investments of University Libraries in open scholarship. These include funding #OpenAccess infrastructure, supporting models like diamond and green, as well as participating in the governance of community-led initiatives. 3?? The IDAHO project, which I have the pleasure of working on at TIB – Leibniz-Informationszentrum Technik und Naturwissenschaften und Universit?tsbibliothek, investigates the unique barriers to OA publishing faced by authors who, despite not having strong ties to academia, are still engaged in research and produce publications. 4?? Mohamad Mostafa, DataCite Regional Engagement Specialist Middle East & Asia focuses on the DataCite Global Access Program aimed at increasing access to and adoption of persistent identifier services and infrastructure across Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America. The GAP initiative takes a comprehensive approach, which includes three main aspects: outreach, infrastructure and funding. 5?? Katherine Witzig, Indigenous Information Professional at Oklahoma City University School of Law emphasizes her extensive experience in supporting #indigenous knowledge in metadata practices through various initiatives. Notably, she discusses the Metadata Justice Initiative in Oklahoma, focusing on Indigenous tribal nation and place names, as well as her work with the PCC Task Group for Metadata Related to Indigenous Peoples of the Americas. This group, among other tasks, advocates for the inclusion of Indigenous languages in UNICODE and other critical library system practices. ?? The paper also contains sections in #IsiZulu and #Ukrainian languages, as Sage kindly allowed us to include contributions in our mother tongues. ?? A special shout-out to Maureen P. Walsh for coordinating efforts on this paper, Tony Alves for organizing and moderating the panel discussion at #NISOPlus24 conference and the National Information Standards Organization for providing us with the opportunity to have our voices heard!

Dr. Baraka Manjale Ngussa and I attended the #UbuntuNet Connect 2024 conference in Dar es Salaam, #Tanzania. The event gathered National Research and Education Network leaders from Eastern and Southern Africa, technology service providers, #librarians, and policymakers for two days of collaboration. We presented on ”#ScholarlyPublishing in #Africa – Overcoming Barriers and Creating Opportunities,” focusing on the #ResearchNexus, Sponsor program, and the #GEM program as key initiatives to support #research and innovation across the region. Looking forward to seeing the positive impact of these programs! Crossref UbuntuNet Alliance
