Summary:

"What we are working on: We shared a draft report from our preliminary investigation into defining open scholarly infrastructure. This investigation is a step towards building a shared vision for an ecosystem that supports open research and scholarly communication. We invite you to comment on the report, by 3 May 2022. This definitional work was also described in our latest research update. The update discussed our plans for the Catalog of Open Infrastructure (COIs) and our initial working models for understanding the funding and operation of infrastructure services. Watch this space over the next few weeks! We reflected on our Strategy Retreat and shared key learnings, recordings, and reusable resources for anyone who would like to learn more about organising such an experience. Our new Steering Committee had its first meeting. They discussed charters, the development of the Financial Oversight Group, and our strategic roadmap. We have been looking into budgeting and resource planning for the rest of the year to understand how we can best use our available resources to support our strategic goals and organisational growth. We hosted our first Collaborator Call, where we gathered individuals and organizations who had invested in infrastructure, responsible technology, and adjacent areas, to begin exploring how we can build a shared agenda for open research and scholarly infrastructure. We intend to host these calls quarterly and are actively thinking about how to expand this space in a safe and inclusive manner. We are crafting our first newsletter, to be sent out next week! There is still time to sign up to get it straight into your inbox.
