DEAL Author Webinar on License Choice

Choosing the right Creative Commons (CC) licence when publishing your research is crucial. The DEAL Consortium strongly advocates for the Creative Commons license type CC BY.

To reinforce this recommendation and to give authors a deeper insight into the licence choice and its wider implications, we are pleased to invite scientific authors in Germany who publish under the DEAL agreements to an exclusive webinar.

Date: December, 12th
Time: 10:00 AM
Where: Internet (Zoom)

Topics:

  • Why CC BY is in most cases the best choice for research publications and why other licence types such as "non-commercial" have limitations
  • How to navigate the DEAL publishing workflows to select your preferred licence
  • Insights into the terms and conditions of the "licence to publish" agreement based on your chosen licence
Bring your questions!

Speakers:

  • Prof. Gerard Meijer: The session will be introduced by Prof. Gerard Meijer, spokesperson of the DEAL consortium, renowned researcher and one of the chief negotiators of the DEAL agreements.
  • The MPDL Services gGmbH team will guide you through the publisher's workflow.

The webinar will be held mainly in English, but questions can be asked in German.

Please register!

Kommerzielles Wissen? Transparent publizieren mit openCost

The scholarly publishing system is undergoing a transformation with the aim of manifesting open access, fair criteria and transparency. The project „openCost: automated, standardized delivery and open provision of publication costs and publishing agreements" represents a building block in the development of the desired information budget. openCost can be understood as a tool to disclose financial flows and to ensure an automated and standardized infrastructure in the publication cost management of a scientific institution. This article provides an overview of the project initiative, its methodological approach, news an the openCost metadata schema and the practical advantages resulting from the technical interface and EZB extension.

(The article is in German.)

Fresh from the Press: The Review of Particle Physics

The Review summarizes much of particle physics and cosmology. Using data from previous editions, plus 2717 new measurements from 869 papers, it lists, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons and the recently discovered Higgs boson, leptons, quarks, mesons, and baryons. It summarize searches for hypothetical particles such as supersymmetric particles, heavy bosons, axions, dark photons, etc. Particle properties and search limits are listed in Summary Tables. It give numerous tables, figures, formulae, and reviews of topics such as Higgs Boson Physics, Supersymmetry, Grand Unified Theories, Neutrino Mixing, Dark Energy, Dark Matter, Cosmology, Particle Detectors, Colliders, Probability and Statistics. Most of the 120 reviews are updated, including many that are heavily revised.

The Review is divided into two volumes. Volume 1 includes the Summary Tables and 97 review articles. You may pick up the printed edition of this volume for your daily usage at the Library.

Volume 2 consists of the Particle Listings and contains also 23 reviews that address specific aspects of the data presented in the Listings. This volume is only available online via the Particle Data Group Website.

The full Review is also available as an Open Access publication:
