Transforming Scholarly Communication through Collective Action Description The purpose of Future Commons is to develop an interdisciplinary, cross-sector, and global collaborative partnership that promote transformation in Scholarly and Scientific Communication (SSC) by encouraging cross-silo innovation, dissemination, and mobilization. As such is an extension and development from the "Scholarly Commons" and "Commons" Working Groups. Goals The ultimate target/outcome of this Future Commons is a
GROUP HAS COMPLETED THEIR WORK AND IS NO LONGER ACTIVE. FOR QUERIES, PLEASE WRITE TO ‘INFO@FORCE11.ORG’ Description This group will work on establishing and overseeing a FORCE11 Scholarly Communications Institute, focussing on contemporary trends in scholarly and scientific communication. The goal of this institute will be to provide courses and workshops in contemporary topics in scholarly and scientific communication, ranging from
Description With requirements from funders for data management plans in grant applications, FORCE11 has an opportunity to help coordinate the many efforts underway around the globe to provide tools and recommendations for creating these data management plans. In alignment with FORCE11's efforts to distill commons principles and best practices governing the production of research objects so that they are FAIR
GROUP IS NO LONGER ACTIVE. FOR QUERIES, PLEASE WRITE TO ‘INFO@FORCE11.ORG’ Description The purpose of this working group is to create a practical, shared formalism using semantic web standards for scientific experimental protocols and data generated by these protocols. Our work is centered on the following competency questions: The formulation should be able to describe the workflow of a protocols at multiple levels:
Aim: next draft of principles, representing both aspirational standards and specifications towards achieving those. This will be a working version that can be used but is also open to debate, refinement and change.
