This sheet on open licenses for Open Science, available on the website of Couperin's Open Science Working Group (GTSO), outlines the principles and license options to promote free and open sharing of scientific outputs.

It specifically highlights Creative Commons licenses that align with this approach.

Two versions (short and detailed) are available for download to explore the information further. More details: Sheet "Open Licenses for Open Science."

The next CCSD "Let's Talk About Open Science" webinar will focus on the theme "Software and Source Codes in Open Science: From Policy to Practice" and will take place on Thursday, December 12, from 2:00 to 3:30 PM.
How can decision-making bodies be engaged and mobilized? What types of partnerships should be established? This webinar will provide an opportunity to hear practical feedback from institutions that have incorporated a "Software" component into their strategy.

It will be presented by:

• Violaine Louvet (CoSO Software Group)
• Jaime Arias (Institut Galilée - Université Sorbonne Paris Nord)
• Karim Boualem (Université Sorbonne Paris Nord)
• Lucie Albaret (UGA)
• Sabrina Granger (Software Heritage)

The webinar is free and open to all with registration required.

The problem of "fake" does not spare science.

5th November 2024 from 1 pm to 2 pm, Guillaume Cabanac guest speaker at the IES webinar, gave an overview of the new forms of misconduct that are polluting the scientific literature: buying articles from paper mills that copy-paraphrase and paste to produce tortured or computer-generated expressions (Scigen, Mathgen, ChatGPT), buying citations from agents who coordinate citation cartels, identity fraud, invented co-authors, infiltrating journals to accept articles en masse, and so on.

This conference also presented the counterattacks that can be taken, with concrete actions that can be incorporated into our practices to detect and protect against fraud

The 40-minute presentation, in French, was followed by a 20-minute question-and-answer session.

Compositionality, a new open-access journal on Episciences

We are pleased to announce the arrival of the journal Compositionality on the Episciences platform.

Founded in 2017, this open access journal publishes work in English using the principle of compositionality. Its domain includes, without limitation, mathematics, computer science, logic, physics, chemistry, engineering, linguistics and cognitive science.

The chief editors are Aleks Kissinger (University of Oxford) and Joachim Kock (Universitat Autograve;noma de Barcelona). See the members of the editorial committee..

La revue est référencée dans DBLP, MathSciNet, Mir@bel et zbMath.

Episciences is a platform for the publication of open-access scientific journals, i.e. with no access fees for readers and no publication fees for authors. Following the editorial model of epi-reviews or overlay journals, the editorial process is based on open archives (Hal, ArXiv, Zenodo, bioRxiv, medRxiv). This platform has been developed by the Center for Direct Scientific Communication. (CCSD).

Le pôle Édition scientifique du service Information et édition scientifiques d’Inria assure le support éditorial de 10 revues en mécanique, informatique et mathématiques appliquées :

* Compositionality

* Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science (DMTCS)

* Electronic Notes in Theoretical Informatics and Computer Science (ENTICS)
