The inside out research library, managing research output beneficially
Research libraries should focus on the local output of tthe communities they represent. Adding the same meta data to the same publications is obviously not a viable business model any more.Creating meta data for your own output, not covered by big

Questions and no answers
I want to search the catalogue to find everything
our university has ever published
We don’t have that. Most staff write articles in journals
and we only catalogue the journal
I want to search the catalogue to find all
monographs our university has ever published
We do not collect all of that systematically, except for
dissertations !
I want to search the catalogue to find all
dissertations our university has ever published
We can not distinct them from dissertations from other
universities

I want to search the repository to find everything

The repository only covers output published after 1993

The library can not guarantee this is complete.
Researchers are asked to register publications in the
repository.
What are the most highly cited journal articles in the
repository ?
We do not record that kind of meta data in the repository.

Needs
• We need better coverage of local output
• Libraries should care about meta data of local output
• We need more and better local meta data
• We need to get rid of these silo’s of meta data

We need better coverage of local output
All output All output in Open Access

Libraries should care about meta data of
local output
Wageningen Yield (WaY) is the institutional bibliography
of Wageningen UR
● WaY should contain metadata descriptions of all
Wageningen UR publication output, >190.000 items
● WaY is our OA repository, >48.000 items
● WaY is our tool for citation analyses, >22.000
publications
● WaY is used to produce bibliometric reports

We need to get rid of meta data silo’s
We carefully register meta data of publications in our
catalogue, following internationally accepted strict rules
We are doing this in thousands of places in the same
way
We are not registering specific local meta data
We may do this in our catalog, but we leave that up to
unqualified research staff in a separate repository.
So we often end up with 2 incomplete registrations
20.
We need to get rid of meta data silo’s
We are looking into merging meta data description in our
catalogue and our repository in a workflow that will
make use of registrations elsewhere. If not we make
sure we need to register meta data only once in one
single system
We are trying to create one Wageningen Bibliography
