NISO and STM Convene Working Group to Standardize a Peer Review Taxonomy
NISO (National Information Standards Organization) and STM (International Association of Scientific, Technical and Medical Publishers) are creating a new NISO Working Group to formalize the current peer review taxonomy as an ANSI/NISO standard. This new group will merge with the existing STM Working Group, and new volunteers are welcome. Its aim is to “support the industry in ensuring greater transparency and openness in peer review, which is an essential element of Open Science,” according to the press release. The output of the new working group “will be made available for public comment and then published as a formal ANSI/NISO standard once it has been reviewed and approved by NISO Voting Members.”For more information, read the press release.
