🌻#OpenAccess publishing and scientific communication infrastructure in Ukraine have distinct characteristics shaped by socioeconomic conditions and by the structure of the national science and research system. War-related destruction has created numerous challenges for the functioning of Ukraine’s scholarly communication system. Here’s one example of international support to keep publishing alive

Comment s'entraine l'#IA ? avec les textes piqués dans les articles en #OA ou des livres sous droit
https://www.lemonde.fr/pixels/article/2026/01/22/comment-des-chercheurs-ont-reussi-a-faire-citer-a-des-ia-des-livres-soumis-au-droit-d-auteur_6663719_4408996.html
On y retrouve classiquement Wikipédia mais aussi l’immense pile de livres Books3, agrégeant près de 200 000 ouvrages sans l’autorisation de leurs auteurs. Certains présentent ces données d’entraînement comme un « savoir universel » qui transcende les droits d’auteur : de quoi faire réfléchir sur l"#openaccess

"Greater levels of AI use were associated with modest increases in depressive symptoms, with odds of at least moderate depression 30% greater among those with daily use, particularly among younger users."

Papyrus Economies and the Experience of Early Medieval Papal Documents

"The significance of papyrus altered radically as its economic value outside the Islamicate world shifted from a relatively easily obtainable, state-sponsored bulk product to a commodity available only at a few well-connected, wealthy centres: probably Constantinople and certainly Rome."
