Heads up for fellow academics as well as other authors. I'm not a prolific published academic, but at least two of my academic journal papers (on Scottish book history and library history) have been pilfered for AI training purposes.

Update. "Will medical publishers fight Trump’s war on 'woke'?"
thebookseller.com/comment/will

"Although many medical journal #editors have made their position known, medical #publishers are, for now, conspicuously silent…The collective resolve of the medical publishing industry is being put to the test. This is an opportunity for the industry to affirm its commitment to safeguard the scholarly record from ideological distortion. #Censorship in health research affects us all. We share a responsibility to stand firm and decry Trump’s war on "gender ideology" as a full-scale assault on the scientific method."

#eLife publication question:
Since eLife is more like a preprint server now, has anyone tried publishing in eLife, and once you got your reviews and revised the manuscript, sending the final version to a 'normal' journal (really just to get that line on your CV)?

If you tried, did it work?

Edit: just found out I asked the same question about a year ago:
neuromatch.social/@elduvelle/1

Edit 2: seems that at the time of my first post, eLife was leaving open the possibility to do the final publication in another journal, it was one of the steps of their system. Now it's not listed in the main steps anymore, but they say:

"Can I submit my paper somewhere else following peer review by eLife?
As far as eLife is concerned, authors can do anything with their paper that they want to. It is their paper, not ours. This includes, but is not limited to, having their work assessed by another journal on the basis of eLife reviews, although we expect most authors will not find this necessary or desirable. Please note that an eLife Version of Record is considered a regular journal article, which marks the end of the publishing process."

(I also edited my question because it doesn't seem you can "re-publish" your version of record)

Neuromatch SocialEl Duvelle (@elduvelle@neuromatch.social)So is this the deal with the new @eLife@fediscience.org system: 1- you send your preprint 2- it is reviewed (if they so choose) 3- you eventually upload a final “version of record” OR 4- you send the reviewed preprint (+reviews) to another journal for publication Has anyone tried that step 4? Do the “other journals” accept to publish something that’s already been reviewed by eLife? Of course, you could do 3 instead but does having an eLife paper under the new system “count” for your CV? Edit 1: here’s an explanation of the new eLife process: https://elifesciences.org/peer-review-process Edit 2: clarified the link between step 3 and 4 (either/or, not both) #Publication #Research #Academia #eLife
