scholarly communications organisation can extract links from articles, research data and other outputs using text and data mining algorithms. ‘Open science is becoming open data
and now that open access is landing we have a clear direction of where we are going,’ he says. ‘The focus is now on open data and this is very exciting as it will help science even more than open access alone.’
And this, of course, is why launching
STM 2020 Research Data Year has such appeal right now. Key participants include Cambridge University Press, Elsevier, DeGruyter, IOP Publishing, Karger Publishers, Oxford University Press, Sage Publishing, Springer Nature, Taylor & Francis and Wiley.

“Sharing best practices and experience is fundamental to the programme”

Year, STM is working with partners to not only increase the number of journals with data policies and articles with data availability statements, but also to raise the number of journals that deposit data links to the Scholix framework, which encourages links between research and data. The programme also intends to increase the numbers of citations to datasets, using the Joint Declaration of
