This case study explores the role of the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) in increasing the visibility and accessibility of Ukrainian academic journals. Ukrainian journals face numerous challenges due to economic constraints and the ongoing war. The article presents how open infrastructures play an important role in supporting journals during conflict, invasion or major disruption, using DOAJ as a case study. It analyzes what has worked and what could have been improved in DOAJ’s approach, including its collaborative efforts with the Supporting Ukrainian Editorial Staff (SUES) project, the Open Ukrainian Citation Index (OUCI) and Research4Life as initiatives to increase the visibility, transparency and impact of all digitized Ukrainian academic journals, despite the ongoing war with Russia. Recommendations are presented to increase the quality and visibility of Ukrainian journals and to guide open infrastructures in supporting journals from conflict areas.

Good overview article about how libraries (can) invest in open access and open infrastructures like DOAB and OAPEN.

Three weeks ago we welcomed our second son, who came so quickly he arrived before the people our midwife called to our room came 😅 since then we’ve taken it slow, adapting to life as a family of four☺️
I appreciate the new followers, and will be more active here later 😄 (gamification updates soon!)😎

Fantastisk! 😄 hvis du trenger tips, så anbefaler jeg ‘The Spirit of Christmas’, den er sykt dårlig på alle de riktige måtene 🤓 men høres ut som du har stålkontroll på dette feltet allerede😆😄

Absolutely🫠 I’ve tried 7 different antisickness tablets. The ones I am on now at least mean I am not throwing up, but the nausea is still 24/7.

Thank you! My GP, midwife and me have all agreed it just sucks and the only thing that will fix it is birth 😅🥲

Today my husband asked me ‘when are you supposed to get that period when you have lots of energy?’

Good question…
I’ve been wondering the same for months.

Sincerely,
woman, 35 weeks pregnant with severe pregnancy nausea 🤢🫠

First paper retracted in string of studies using the wrong medication name Tara Skopelitis A scientific sleuth and a mother who nearly lost her daughter to a hormonal condition teamed up in January to flag a series of papers that misnamed a medication for pregnant women. …

This story is absolutely shocking.

“Hundreds of doctors lazily misnamed a drug and it was allowed to cascade through the peer reviewed literature with serious implications for patient care”

Spent ages looking for my son’s new water bottle. Found it today.

It was outside in the paper recycling bin.

I dont remember putting it there, but I am 100% confident it was me.

Pregnancy brain is great for triggering toddler tantrums😅

Alle er forskjellige, men jeg håper det virker for deg også 🤞🏼 ja, det var et helvette å sette inn.

Naproxen, varmeflaske og hvile til det verste går over 😅

Spiral hjalp for meg på noe vis - har fortsatt hatt smerter med spiral men mista blødninger.
Det hjalp å få en diagnose og å ikke føle at man var gal da iallfall 😅

Så, velkommen i klubben😟❤️
