Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The variety of opportunities offered by the internet makes it attractive for publishing, especially for developing nations previously unable to distribute publications on a global scale. However, Nigerian publishers striving to seize the moment are grossly under-reported in literature, notwithstanding that their innovations could create opportunities globally. This study, therefore, describes the progression of e-publishing in Nigeria with emphasis on e-publishing capacity building, collaboration, and outsourcing. Data were collected from publishers and their websites by means of in-depth interviews, website observation, and survey, and findings indicate that publishers are building e-publishing capacity by launching websites, e-book clubs, online bookshops, and e-libraries in schools and by collaborating with foreign e-book distribution firms. This study, therefore, provides updated information on an emerging market with huge investment and collaboration potential.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
