CNRS Is Breaking from the Web of Science, Core Collection and JCR

« The CNRS began this process in 2024 by unsubscribing from Elsevier's Scopus database and is pursuing its policy today by cutting access to Clarivate Analytics' bibliometric database. Alain Schuhl reminds us that "other prestigious institutions have led the way" with this approach. This decision by the CNRS will help the organisation save €1.4 million annually in subscription fees, funds that will be redirected towards initiatives promoting open science, particularly the development of open databases. »
