Scholarly Communication Technology Catalogue (SComCat)Created by Antleaf, Confederation of Open Access Repositories (COAR), and the Next Generation Library Publishing project, SComCat is a catalogue and knowledge base of scholarly communication open technologies including software and some essential running services. SComCat's purpose is to assist potential users in making decisions about which technologies they will adopt by providing an overview of the functionality, organizational models, dependencies, use of standards, and levels of adoption of each technology.
The scan includes tools, platforms, and standards that can be locally adopted to support one or more of functions of the lifecycle of scholarly communication, which is conceptualized as including the following activities: creation, evaluation, publication, dissemination, preservation, and reuse.
