How multilingual is scholarly communication? Mapping the global distribution of languages in publications and citations

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Language is a major source of systemic inequities in science, particularly among scholars whose first language is not English. Studies have examined scientists' linguistic practices in specific contexts; few, however, have provided a global analysis of multilingualism in science. Using two major bibliometric databases (OpenAlex and Dimensions),

What characterises well‐connected schools? Exploring centrality in inter‐organisational school networks

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Within the educational literature, inter‐organisational school networks are commonly considered instruments for administration, management, and school improvement, but are rarely scrutinised as objects of study themselves. Conversely, in organisational studies, this perspective is given more prominence.
