Two for Tuesday
Clearing the docket with two brief entries
Just a quick post today to note two things, with more to come later this week on other topics.
Consider this as the docket being cleared.
Misconduct
To clarify yesterday’s post, the retractions involved in the Argos approach are those only classified as involving researcher misconduct as categorized by Retraction Watch. I should have been clear about that.
Scholar One to Silverchair
Yesterday, Silverchair announced it has acquired Scholar One from Clarivate. There was a solid analysis of this on “The Scholarly Kitchen,” so all I’ll add is that this seems another sign that scholarly and scientific publishing is gradually starting to make sense again. Scholar One never made sense at Clarivate, and makes much more sense — strategically, regionally, and technologically — at Silverchair. Good move.
