My work features prominently in a Nature editorial today. Great to see digital preservation being taken seriously.

"Millions of research articles are absent from major digital archives. This worrying finding, [...] was laid bare in a study by Martin Eve" www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Act now to stop millions of research papers from disappearing

Digital preservation is not keeping up with the growth of scholarly knowledge. Recognizing its causes is the first step to securing records everywhere for future generations.

“Cultural artifacts are findable only so long as someone takes on the active responsibility to preserve, catalog and share them. Once gone, they’re gone forever. Historical oblivion is the default, not the exception.”

La #UniBarcelona ha deixat de publicar a X per marcar distàncies amb un espai on es fomenten missatges d’odi i prolifera la desinformació.
La Facultat d'Informació i Mitjans Audiovisuals @fima-ub.bsky.social també segueix aquest camí.
