We Can and We Should: libraries' role in open educationSarah Cohen
We can and we should: the libraries' role in open education
Libraries around the country, and the world, are increasingly devoting time and resources to open education. But why? In what way are libraries part of this movement and how does it serve our missions and services? This presentation will describe the value that libraries’ engagement in this space can offer to our institutions, our students, and our profession; and, to outline possible ways forward for libraries that are interested in committing their limited resources to this transformative effort.
Shaping Expectations: Defining and Refining the Role of Technical Services in...NASIG
From trial to implementation, technical services staff play an important role in shaping awareness of, and expectations for, new resources. Internally, technical services staff provide information and instruction to public services staff. Externally, they influence how new resources are integrated into the library website and other platforms. With appropriate “message control,” technical services staff can positively influence awareness of new resources while keeping everyone’s expectations in check.
During fall 2015, technical services staff at Georgia Southern University adopted a protocol for new resource rollouts that explicitly times and structures internal and external communications to ensure that all library staff are ready to support new resources as they go live. This protocol focuses on providing appropriate lead-time notifications to public services staff and “training the trainers” first, prior to releasing any external communications. Furthermore, this protocol integrates with activities of the library’s promotion committee, supporting smooth transition to public services promotion of new resources.
During this session, presenters will discuss this protocol in detail, with special emphasis on timing of internal and external communications, the importance of providing sufficient staff training and support materials early on, and the importance of maintaining objectivity and accuracy in all rollout communications and assets. Presenters will share protocol planning tools and worksheets, describe how these are integrated into implementation workflows, and engage participants in discussion about the role of technical services in new resource rollouts.

Geoffrey Crossick is Director of the AHRC's Cultural Value Project and Distinguished Professor of Humanities in the School of Advanced Study at the University of London.
Geoffrey's presentation will focus on the project that he led for HEFCE (and supported by AHRC and ESRC) on the implications of open access for monographs and other long-form research publications.
Alex and Conor introduce SAH Journal (sahjournal.com) as an open access academic journal project involving the collaborative efforts of emerging and established scholars as well as academic librarians. Conor explains the benefits of collaborating with research librarians through publishing. Alex asserts that librarians (libraries) are perfectly positioned to enter into direct competition with established commercial journal publishers. He explains the mechanics of electronic publishing from conceptional planning to implementation via, in this instance, Open Journal Systems (OJS).

Slides from the ACRL 2021 conference panel presentation "Open access investment at the local level: Sharing diverse tactics to improve access and affordability."
Panelists include:
- Sam Teplitzky, Open Science Librarian, UC Berkeley
- Timothy Vollmer, Scholarly Communication & Copyright Librarian, UC Berkeley
- Sharla Lair, Senior Strategist, Open Access & Scholarly Communication Initiatives at LYRASIS
- Tom Narock, Assistant Professor of Data Science at Goucher College
- Justin Gonder, Senior Product Manager, Publishing, California Digital Library.
Panel topic:
Improving accessibility, inclusivity, and affordability of scholarship is a central tenet to realizing a more equitable higher education system. Many decisions about open access investments take place at administrative or consortial levels, but librarians frequently field requests for access, resources, or partnerships at the local level through their relationships with students, researchers, and faculty. An open access investment working group was established at UC Berkeley Library in late 2019 to bridge this gap between larger scale strategic investment and local decision making. The group proposed a set of criteria to guide library investments in sustainable open access projects. With this group’s work in the foreground, the panel will share real-world examples of where and how academic libraries decide to invest in open access resources. Panelists will discuss commonalities and differences in strategies and give attendees examples they can apply in their own roles.

User-driven scholarly communications - The Stockholm University Library exampleSofie Wennström
Stockholm University Press (SUP) has implemented a working model for the development of their services where exchange of ideas and best practices between the press staff and the researchers is driving development. This is done through strategic partnerships nationally and internationally, as well as with the active researchers at the university. SUP aim to build a sustainable model for publication of peer-reviewed books and journals by optimising our involvement in these networks and by sharing knowledge and information openly. The success of scholarly communication relies on indexing and dissemination. The dissemination channels created need to be in place from the very beginning of the development of a new press. However, most indexes require that you already have content to show in order to add their quality stamp to the press. How do we deal with this catch 22?
Stockholm University Press was founded in 2014, and published its first Open Access books in early 2015 with one academic journal is already up and running. Three more journals will be added to the list in 2016. SUP have implemented editorial practices for transparency and quality assessment, which are necessary in order to create the level of credibility needed to gain trust among dissemination channels. Building the press also include an intrinsic function to evaluate the work with the help of publication data in combination with so-called ‘allmetrics’. The data will then be reused to empower the author by providing tools for analysis of these numbers for the individual as well as the entire university. So, how do we create these incentives, and how do we make them count? How do we make the press and library activities worthwhile for the entire University?
The last quarter of the development loop includes learning tools for researchers at the institution where we can share knowledge about scholarly communication in general, based on the publication metrics we can provide and the lessons learned with the press. This is a work in progress, and something we would like to share with the delegates. The new learning environment is intended to become intrinsic in the publishing process and can drive development of knowledge and technology based on user involvement and input.
This presentation aim to further describe the case of Stockholm University Press, how we plan to move forward in the immediate future, and last but not least show plans for further developments of learning tools and services for researchers. The iterative development processes used are supported by the practices of open access, both to knowledge, data and research results.

IFLA ARL Webinar Series | Held online on March 29, 2023
Libraries have a foundational mission to contribute to the right to information and education, serve communities on the margins and provide safe spaces for the vulnerable. Their role extends beyond merely advocating for social justice, diversity and inclusion but they are spaces where social justice struggles are fought and are themselves active participants in the social justice arena.
Academic libraries provide access to spaces and information to university students and staff irrespective of religion, dis/ability, race, political beliefs, social standing and class with many extending their services to unaffiliated users from the local communities. That way, they democratize access to information for all persons.
This webinar accentuated the contributions of academic and research libraries as advocates and actors in the social justice arena. Presenters shared their perspectives and actions taken to address issues of social justice, diversity and inclusion in various academic and research libraries. We hope that their actions will be replicated or customized by other libraries so together, libraries create even stronger impact.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

○ Responsiveness
○ Core Services
○ Partnerships
○ Openness
○ Experimentation
○ Pedagogy
3. Why Libraries Publish

8. Library + University Press Partnerships
Partnership Types:
Type 1 Little evidence of currently active relationships
between press and library
Type 2 Good relationships between press and library, but no
reporting structure
Type 3 Reporting and joint projects, but relative autonomy
Type 4 Physical collocation and reporting, but relative
autonomy
Type 5 More integrated with shared vision and approaches

13. What services do library publishers provide?
● Obtaining an ISSN for journals, DOIs for articles, and ISBNs for books
● Assisting with all aspects of technical setup and production of each
journal issue or book, including in some cases layout and copyediting
● Providing a publishing platform that simplifies the peer-review process
and includes options for blind or double-blind review
● Hosting open-access digital content on a secure server with frequent
backups and built-in redundancies
● Consulting on copyright questions
● Maximizing discoverability of products through search-engine optimization
and robust metadata
● Preserving and archiving the digital content in perpetuity
● Assisting with print-on-demand services
Note: Not all academic libraries have staff with expertise to provide all of these
services; most offer a selection of the above.
14. What expertise is helpful in providing library
publishing services?
● Copyright, fair use, open licensing
● Project management
● Budgeting or financial planning
● Policy development
● Memorandum of Understanding development – negotiate with editors and
authors regarding what services your publishing program can provide and
more importantly what it cannot provide. See this helpful MoU Toolkit.
● Content acquisition (might include managing peer review or an setting up
an editorial board)
● Publishing workflows (i.e., steps to transform a raw manuscript into a
polished professional product – could include things like document/cover
design, layout, copyediting, etc.)
15. What other questions are important before starting?
● How will we decide what to publish, as well as what not
to publish?
● Will we work only with campus-based editors/authors? Or
external ones, too?
● Will our services be subsidized by the library/university at
no cost to editors/authors? Or will we charge for
services?
● Are we 100% committed to open access and allowing
authors to retain copyright? If so, what open licence(s)
will we require/recommend?
16. What other questions are important before starting?
● Will we publish only faculty work? Or will we publish
student work as well? If we take on a student journal,
how will we ensure continuity and sustainability?
● Are equity, diversity, and inclusion important to us as a
publishing services, and if so, what will we do to ensure a
diversity of voices in published products, on editorial
boards, etc?
● What are our criteria for withdrawing published
materials?
