Really excited to share that we’ve published Thoth Open Metadata’s self-assessment against the Principles of Open Scholarly Infrastructure (POSI). 🎉
For us, this is more than a compliance exercise. It’s an open reflection on how we believe open metadata for books should be governed, sustained, and shared - with community oversight, open-source code, and CC0 data and open APIs at its core. As open access policies evolve, infrastructure transparency matters for publishers, librarians, and policymakers alike. 📚 #MetadataMatters
This work connects directly to the next phase of Thoth’s development - and we’ll be continuing the conversation at the Copim community's #CopimConference tomorrow and on Friday, where we’ll be discussing the future of #communityled #OAbooks and the infrastructure they depend on together with like-minded #openinfras, #libraries, #publishers, and #researchers.
There's no #OpenAccess without #OpenInfrastructure!
