Next week, #ReproducibiliTea in the HumaniTeas in Cologne is organising a two-day extravaganza of Quarto workshops and talks: https://gschwier.pages.git.nrw/quartoworkshop2026/

We are making online attendance possible for the world to join in the fun! Online and on-site @unibibkoeln registration is possible via our homepage.

#Quarto is a modern open-source publishing system that turns plain text and code into polished papers, slides, websites, books, and teaching materials. It unifies writing and computation, supports seamless reproducible workflows, and bridges the gap between publishing your research and reusing the same transparent analyses in notebooks for teaching.

Update. "The federal Department of Education [ #ED] maintains an open access database of more than 2 million documents [Education Resources Information Center, #ERIC] dating back to the 1960s. It will cease operating Wednesday due to #DOGE cuts."

PS: I use many sources in my attempt to stay on top of what's happening with #OpenAccess, #OpenScience, #OpenEducation, and so on. ERIC has been one of the stalwarts.
