The editor is Simon Worthington, based at the Open Science Lab, Technische Informationsbibliothek (TIB) | German National Library of Science and Technology, Hannover.

Editorial priorities

Our focus will be twofold on the researchers' needs, and on and Open Science discourse.

• For researchers we will take ‘a needs based approach’ approach’. The aim is that we find ‘replicable models’ that the wider research community can use, either on a conceptual level or in practical implementations.
• Supporting in-depth examination of the ongoing Open Science discourse is vital to researchers being involved in shaping the future of scholarly institutions and , ways of working, and new systems design.

Three channel strategy

We address two groups of researchers sitting at different ends of the spectrum of familiarity with Open Science: the career focused, and Open Science engaged. The three channel approach is used to help provide knowledge and information to suit the different levels of familiarity with a topic and allow readers and contributors different ways to engage.

• A blog for well-informed articles,
• a forum for community building,
• and resource pages to give concise how-tos and listings.

Roadmap

Planning and development started mid-October 2017 and a blog launch is planned for the research alliance Open Science Conference taking place on the 13-14^th March 2018 in Berlin.Spring 2018.
