Guest Editorial: Navigating the Global Landscape of Scholarly Communication: A Special Issue Exploration
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the dynamic realm of scholarly communication, this special issue embarks on an exploration of global developments shaping the discourse.Topics include a pioneering approach to institutional repository development in Kosovo; the discovery of open resources and choosing library publishing platforms in the US, library publishing initiatives in Ireland; the impact of transformative agreements on the publishing patterns; an EDI-centered approach to institutional research data management work in Canada, and observations on Library and Information Science research outputs from the Global South.Each article in this collection enhances our understanding of global developments in scholarly communication.
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.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
