CEON/CEES joins the OPERAS Research Infrastructure

The Centre for Evaluation in Education and Science (CEON/CEES) has joined the OPERAS research infrastructure as the first OPERAS member from Serbia. OPERAS is the European Research Infrastructure dedicated to the development of open scholarly communication in the social sciences and humanities (SSH). It seeks to develop a decentralized pan-European infrastructure in SSH resting on the principles of open science, bibliodiversity and multilingualism by integrating and coordinating already existing platforms and services, developing common standards and ensuring interoperability. OPERAS currently has more than 40 members based across Europe, as well as in Latin America and Canada.

The OPERAS network and CEON/CEES share many interests and focuses, such as the striving to develop sustainable non-APC Open Access publishing platforms, interoperability on multiple levels, fostering multilingualism, developing sustainable metrics and promoting high publishing standards. By joining the OPERAS network, CEON/CEES expects to improve the discoverability of local journals in SSH, to take part in the development of common publishing standards, and share with an international community the innovative practices and workflows developed in the local context.

CEON/CEES participates in the Special Interest Group Common Standard and will also contribute to the Special Interest Group Tools R&D and the Special Interest Group Best Practices
