Webinar: Thoth 1.0 -- open metadata, dissemination, usage statistics, and catalogues for OA books. June 3, online @ 4pm CEST

Dear colleagues,

We’re excited to invite you to a special webinar introducing Thoth 1.0, our major new release of the Thoth platform.

At Thoth Open Metadata, openness and interoperability lie at the heart of everything we do. Developed by publishers and for publishers, we believe in empowering presses to leverage the power of open infrastructures that support collaboration, transparency, and flexibility - without any kind of platform lock-in. That commitment shapes every aspect of the Thoth ecosystem: from our open-source software and CC0 metadata to our open APIs and direct integrations with other community-led publishing platforms and infrastructures.

Over the past several years, Thoth has grown from a dissemination system developed in the context of the Copim communtiy, into a trusted non-profit open metadata management and dissemination platform used by more than 100 publishers across the globe. Thoth 1.0 marks a major new step forward, introducing a redesigned interface, enhanced multilingual metadata support, expanded dissemination workflows, reusable publisher catalogues and websites, and improved reporting and usage metrics capabilities.

In this webinar, the Thoth team will demonstrate:

• the new Thoth 1.0 platform and interface
• open and interoperable metadata workflows
• integrations with wider community infrastructures and services
• reusable publisher catalogues and websites
• dissemination and reporting / usage statistics workflows for OA books
• how Thoth supports publishers in maintaining control over their own metadata and workflows

Whether you are already working with Thoth or are interested in hearing more about open, community-governed infrastructure for scholarly publishing, we would be delighted to have you join us.

We hope to see you there.

With best wishes,

Toby (on behalf of all of us here at Thoth Open Metadata)
