Things to follow – OpenPub https://openpub.nceas.ucsb.edu A collection of thoughts and links from the NCEAS Future of Publishing Working Group Wed, 13 Nov 2013 17:49:46 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.0.3 A Milestone Day for Preprints in Biology & Ecology https://openpub.nceas.ucsb.edu/2013/11/12/a-milestone-day-for-preprints-in-biology-ecology/ https://openpub.nceas.ucsb.edu/2013/11/12/a-milestone-day-for-preprints-in-biology-ecology/#respond Wed, 13 Nov 2013 05:40:38 +0000 http://openpub.nceas.ucsb.edu/?p=971 Continue reading →]]> Two very interesting developments today in the land of preprints for all biologists. First, anyone can now publish unlimited free preprints at PeerJ. At the same time, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory’s new bioRxiv has finally gone live. It seeks to mimic the ever popular arXiv, but for biology. Definitely turning a corner here in terms of making preprints for EEB (and biology in general) ubiquitous and easy!

They now have the URL http://biorxiv.org/ up and running as a signup. Curious to see where this will go!

Read more about it in their blog post.

I don’t see any up yet, but I’ll be curious to see how it works once a few get posted!

It’s fully open-source CMS for publishing.

http://openpublishapp.com/

It connects to Disqus for discussion threads and does about 80% of what we were talking about in the room.

I’m asking them about connecting up DOIs.

Anyhow…Something to consider for the future.
