Other bodies

OpenEdition Lab, OpenEdition’s research and development programme, has a scientific advisory board whose mission is to help structure and guide OpenEdition’s R&D activities.

Hypotheses has several Scientific Boards, reflecting the main language areas of the platform.

Calenda also has its own Scientific Board.

The OpenEdition Journals and OpenEdition Books platforms each have a Validation Committee that prepares files for review by the Scientific Board.

Publishers Consortium

A Publishers Consortium has been created around the OpenEdition Books platform. Its role is to provide recommendations as this platform develops. By 2018, it included more than 70 publishers.

Users’ Committee

A Users’ Committee has been formed as part of the OpenEdition Freemium programme. It is made up of library conservators, librarians and information engineering professionals. The libraries subscribing to the programme have a seat on the committee, which meets at least once a year and has a permanent activity through working groups, whether at a distance or in person: referencing and bibliometrics, internationalization, quality of metadata and bibliographic tools, journals forum, and relationship with libraries, among other roles.
