Jisc launch a community of practice for UK members of OPERAS

14 February 2024

Jisc has announced the launch of OPERAS-UK. OPERAS is dedicated to supporting open scholarly communication in SSH within the European Research Area (ERA), and Jisc, as the national node for OPERAS, will play a pivotal role in establishing connection points inside and outside the OPERAS community.

By collaborating with multiple partners, and through a vision of inclusive and barrier-free scholarly communication, OPERAS empowers researchers with services to discover open scholarly publications, improve transparency of peer-review practices, measure usage and impact of open access.

The key benefits of becoming a member of OPERAS include:

  • Innovative services and infrastructure: OPERAS enhances the capacity of UK organisations to access innovative services across Europe
  • Access to the EU market and funding opportunities: OPERAS offers increased visibility and potential for collaboration across Europe
  • Access to exclusive information  and tailored trainings: OPERAS provides access to innovative services that support the creation and dissemination of SSH outputs across Europe
