The SCIROS Validation Conference took place in Warsaw on 18–19 May 2026. Its purpose was to review the main project outcomes, validate the work carried out with partners, and discuss possible forms of future cooperation after the end of the project. The meeting combined the assessment of scientific and public-facing outputs with a more strategic discussion on the role SCIROS could play in relation to OPERAS.

When the paper ‘Towards a Contextualised Spatial-Diachronic History of Literature: Mapping Emotional Representations of the City and the Country in Polish Fiction from 1864 to 1939’, introduced the (meta)corpus creation workflow, I had the feeling that it could serve a greater and more general purpose than for only one type of resource.

One Network, Many Possibilities: Strengthening the OPERAS Community
Location: Warsaw, Poland | Dates: 18-21 May 2026
Introduction

However, at its core, a research infrastructure is a boundary object: a multifaceted entity that sits at the intersection of different social worlds. It is the common ground where researchers, librarians, publishers, policymakers, and engineers meet to cooperate despite their varying perspectives and needs.

Measuring the impact of Open Research Infrastructures (ORI) helps assess the effectiveness of infrastructures, justify investments in their development, and facilitate informed decision-making regarding the funding, development, and maintenance of services.
