Library Spending in Transition: Open Access Surges, Closed Access Remains Steady - pulse49.com German Library Statistics reveals a clear trend: spending on Closed Access has remained stable, Open Access expenditures have surged dramatically.

💶 Spending on #OpenAccess in Germany's universities has risen from €6.2M (2018) to over €100M (2024) – a 1500%+ increase.
🔐 Closed Access remains stable and still dominates budgets.

Thanks Bernd! Surely there will be another chance to chat in person. I'm certain you'll be presenting your work at the big conferences in no time 😉

Progress in #ResearchAssessment in Germany: @dfg.de recommendation for a hybrid CV-template:
- no picture
- no birthdates
- no JIFs
- no h-index
- non-traditional pubs allowed

i.e. more substance, less highly abused metrics

Inspired by #CoARA @dorassessment.bsky.social
