CNI-announce readers may remember a December 2021 Virtual Meeting presentation describing the work that JISC had been advancing to develop a new platform for providing access to the primary research record, complementing the existing journal publication system. That presentation can be found at

At the time of the presentation the system was still under development. At this point the system is going live in prototype. The Octopus team is hosting a free online event on June 29, 4-5pm UK time (11-12am US EDT). For details on the event and to sign up, visit
