Oggetto: [openalex-users] First ever in-person users meeting in Paris
Data: Wed, 12 Aug 2026 11:51:11 -0700 (PDT)
Mittente: Jason Priem
Big news: we're hosting the first in-person OpenAlex Users Meeting in
Paris, October 20-22, 2026, and we'd love to see you there.
Even better, we want you on the program. Our call for proposals is now
open for 10-minute talks from across the community. We'd love to hear about:
- Tools, dashboards, and analyses you've built with OpenAlex
- How your institution or country uses OpenAlex in practice
- Research powered by OpenAlex data
- Lessons learned, rough edges, and what you wish existed
You don't need polished results. Works-in-progress and "here's what was
hard" talks are some of the most valuable ones. We'll group talks into
themed sessions once we've seen the full set of proposals, so don't
worry about fitting a track.
Submitting takes about five minutes: you'll just need a title, a short
abstract (around 250 words), and your affiliation.
Submit your proposal here:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc9D4jjjTU7nFxF61JKZErJ-pRNfqVEkIE…
*Key dates:*
- Proposals due: Monday, September 14
- Notifications: by Friday, September 25
- Meeting: October 20-22, Paris, France
If you have any questions, just reply to this email or write to
support(a)openalex.org.
We can't wait to see you in Paris!
Warmly,
The OpenAlex team
PS Can't make this one? Don't worry, we're planning to do these more
regularly and are planning to host a global *virtual* user group meeting
early 2027
