Reposted by Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe Richard Sever @richardsever.bsky.social · 08/10/2026But it’s a really important thing to think about in the context of proposals for publishing reform. Publish-Review-Curate and ‘preprint-only’ policies are currently pushed by various funders, but what do retractions look like in these workflows and who arbitrates them? 2104
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Was there more to this? I'm finding this puzzling. 000

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 07/10/2026This is a great thread for seeing how what seems simple is suddenly millions of dollars of tech development and maintenance (also, I'm not sure how is going to help when many bots ignore all directions anyways). 000
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 07/10/2026(BTW, I'm not critical of the conflating. We need a way to "see" understanding. Its just best we not confuse the two.) 020
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 07/10/2026One of my favorite instruction design books (Understanding by Design) is framed by unpacking "understanding" into 6 facets/types. We've long conflated understanding with particular performances. Anyone using the UbD model is already so much better off in this AI world. 130

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 30/09/2026If you still have this policy at hand, I'd love to see it. I don't have one in my collection that says quality is irrelevant. 200
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Are you saying quality didn't matter at all? 100
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Ok, if that's your premise then I understand your perspective. 110
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 30/09/2026So, better bc citations to a single paper are your measure of effective dissemination? 100

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 30/09/2026There's also great concern (1978) that soon individual scientists will not be able to afford their own journal subscriptions or indexing tools and only libraries will have subscriptions. 240
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Today I've been reading articles about the future of Information/information systems dated from 1945 to 1980. The problems: already too much to read and scientific outputs rapidly expanding. No suggestion ppl publish less. Focus is building better tools for search, discovery, synthesis, etc. 151
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Now ppl in this airport are wondering why I'm laughing so hard tears are running down my cheeks.

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 28/09/2026(Side note, the majority of the conversation about this is people asking others how to do it. Which underscores the point that this is just not at all easy or obvious to most ... and that's without it being agentic.) 020
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 28/09/2026What I am fascinated by are places where I see communities using these tools in ways completely surprising to me. E.g., the FB travel group of women who love using AI to build capsule travel wardrobes. Not sure if that becomes "agentable" but it is intriguing how ppl deploy tools when they have them 130
Reposted by Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe Tressie McMillan Cottom @tressiemcphd.bsky.social · 28/09/2026In practice, AI literacy doesn’t start with building the tool for your personal use. It starts with understanding yourself as a collection of tasks who should subcontract those out to a machine. Almost no regular person’s life currently exists as such. 9834211

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 28/09/2026The number of conversations that include me saying: if you don't want anyone to make any use of it without your permission, then you need to not ever share/publish it at all.... 110
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Also, wow, that would have been quite the consultation to work through! 100
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Also, the confusion around "using info" vs "following copyright." We all "use info" to "make money" without citing it. We couldn't function otherwise! 100
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 28/09/2026They do. But they also say authors should submit their own work, declare funding and COIs, etc. So, you know. 🤷🏼♀️ As long as we look to journals to catch bad behavior rather than the field to deal with it (shame, censure, expulsion, etc), well, 🤷🏼♀️. 022
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 28/09/2026The US system is a really interesting mix-tape version of the England and Germany systems, with some very unique contributions of our own (that have since spread elsewhere). 020

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Sure. I'm just questioning if that not charging an APC for x years = is a Diamond journal if the publisher had said the APC is 3k were just not charging it right now. 210
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Is a journal that intends to charge an APC but doesn't for x years to get established really a diamond journal? www.nature.com/articles/d41...nature.comHundreds of ‘free’ academic journals have started charging feesA study tracking diamond open-access journals has found an increase in titles switching to other publishing models — especially over the past few years. 101

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 23/09/2026When I was in library school, the theory of unknown/undiscovered public knowledge was the rage. There was some evidence to validate it but it took a lot of effort. Wonder if the theorist is alive to see this ... 031
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Sub your scholarly topic for Ted's, and the observation stays the same. GenAI models are the new mass media, whether we like or not. You cannot "should" people out of using them. You might be able to convince them to go beyond. But the first question is if experts w know what non-experts are told. 143
Reposted by Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe Samuel Moore @samuelmoore.org · 21/09/2026I don't disagree with all of this but I'm not convinced that in the pre-AI world "a paper stands or falls on procedure, not on whose lab it came from" is correct.

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Probably learned societies, not depts, unless a truly leading department in a field (but the finances push against them providing as a service to others). So, if societies, that likely means commercial publishers (many of which are probably better described as platforms than publishers these days)? 130

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 11/09/2026The bigger issue is copyright =/= all rights. If you want to keep it from some people, you have to not publish it. 011
Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Sorry, I wasn't trying to criticize, rather to to explore, but I can see how it hasn't come off that way. I apologize.

Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe @lisalibrarian.bsky.social · 10/09/2026For labels to be useful, it has to be clear what they are to be applied to. There is a big difference btwn labeling copies, versions, and works! Personally, I think thats where lots confusion comes in w the colors. You probably know librarians have been working through these issues for decades... 100
