our university has a nice new tool that searches the internet for FAIR and/or Open Data *and* Software and helps me getting this added in our "UM's Current Research Information System (CRIS)"
This help is most welcome, as metadata for these research output types is not perfect (to put it mildly).
I like the system so far a lot! It works better than the DOI import functionality of the CRIS itself. Well done!

187 blogs are now aggregated, indexed, and archived by [@rogue_scholar](https://wisskomm.social/@rogue_scholar ): https://doi.org/10.53731/aa1rk-1xf54
My wish for the year end is 200 blogs, among which 3 in the Dutch language
Are you blogging?

I am considering starting an #openscience #chemistry journal, with strong editorial standards.
desk reject when:
1. science cannot be reproduced
2. not 100% open science
3. no full metadata
4. data and software is not archived
5. citations adhere to strong standards
6. all articles have CReDIT statments
7. CiTO is used for data and software citations (optionally, more)
Furthermore,
8. URLs will be archived upon acceptance
9. diamond Open Access (CC-BY and zero APC)
Would you submit?

new: 'One Million IUPAC names #3: the 200 thousand milestone and 1 million IUPAC names" https://doi.org/10.59350/6f7he-kxt56 https://chem-bla-ics.linkedchemistry.info/2025/06/09/one-million-iupac-names.html
"I could not find the time earlier to report (reason), but three weeks ago we passed the fourth milestone release of the CCZero IUPAC names found in literature collection. This release contains 200026 IUPAC names, 168702 unique names, reflecting 116207 unique InChIKeys. Time for an update of the One Million IUPAC names project."
