The Open Discovery Initiative (ODI) was launched in 2011 to promote transparency in library discovery services. In 2012-2014, an ODI working group developed a recommended practice for vocabulary, metadata transfer, and evaluation. An ODI standing committee formed in 2014 is responsible for education, guidance, and determining next steps. The committee has made progress in updating an ODI website, presenting at conferences, and developing conformance checklists for content and discovery providers based on the recommended practice.
This presentation was given during the NISO Update session at ALA in Orlando Florida on June 26, 2016. The speaker was Elise Sassone of Springer-Nature.

ALA Annual Conference Las Vegas, NV
The NISO began exploring issues around vocabulary development and maintenance in 2013. In 2014, they proposed three projects around vocabulary use and reuse, documentation, and preservation. These projects examine policies, social considerations, and guidance needed to support stable vocabularies. The groups aim to limit "orphan vocabularies" and provide recommendations for responsible long-term governance, documentation, and adoption of at-risk vocabularies. Educational webinars were held in 2015, and a draft of best practice recommendations is planned for fall 2016 to support interoperability and understanding of vocabulary management issues.
This document summarizes a presentation by Nettie Lagace from NISO about the NISO Access and License Indicators working group. The working group aims to 1) specify a format for bibliographic metadata describing readership rights of scholarly works, 2) recommend mechanisms for publishing and distributing this metadata, 3) report on including downstream reuse rights, and 4) develop use cases for the outputs. The working group has developed <free_to_read> and <license_ref> tags to indicate access rights and point to license terms in a machine-readable way. Successful implementation could help address confusion about rights by transmitting open access information to enable discovery and tracking of scholarly works.

The World Wants Interoperability: NISO and Community-Driven Standards
The National Information Standards Organization (NISO) provides a unique environment for libraries, publishers, system providers and other information industry stakeholders to meet together and represent perspectives and requirements to create and shape consensus-driven standards and recommended practices that drive our shared technology forward. Nettie Lagace, NISO's Associate Director for Programs, will provide an overview of NISO's approach to creating industry standards which support data exchange and system interoperability, including examples of recent and current NISO contributions to the scholarly communication universe such as its work in alternative assessment metrics, publication and transfer of data and other scholarly output, and user-focused discovery and delivery of digital content.
The Open Discovery Initiative (ODI) was formed in 2011 to address issues with the opaque agreements between content providers and discovery service providers. The ODI aims to define standards for assessing content provider participation, streamlining processes for working with discovery vendors, and determining usage statistics collection. An ODI Standing Committee was formed in 2014 to promote educational opportunities on its recommended practices, provide support during adoption, and serve as a forum for ongoing discussion among stakeholders. The Standing Committee roster includes representatives from libraries, publishers, and service providers. Key areas of focus for the committee are education, technology, and ensuring conformance through published checklists and statements.
The document discusses the Book Industry Study Group (BISG), which facilitates innovation and shared solutions across the publishing industry. BISG represents the entire publishing industry horizontally, rather than specific verticals. It focuses on standards and best practices through research, education, and events. Key areas of focus include EPUB, book identification standards like ISBN and ISNI, metadata via ONIX, and subject codes like BISAC and Thema. BISG operates several committees focused on these areas to serve companies and practitioners that create, produce, and distribute published content.
The document discusses the British Library's role in managing and providing access to research data. It notes that the Library archives over 300TB of digital data, including datasets, and is working to improve discovery and citation of datasets. This includes testing a dataset discovery service, establishing selection criteria for datasets, and implementing DOIs for datasets in partnership with DataCite to help researchers find and cite data more easily. The goal is for datasets to be treated similarly to research articles and better integrated into the scholarly record.
KBART (Knowledge Bases And Related Tools) is a recommended practice for publishers to provide standardized metadata to knowledge bases to improve the accuracy of holdings information. Phase 1 focused on serials while Phase 2 expanded the scope to ebooks, open access resources, and consortial holdings. The KBART standing committee oversees the recommended practice. Knowledge bases aggregate holdings data to support linking, discovery, and electronic resource management. Inaccurate holdings data in knowledge bases can negatively impact these services. KBART provides guidelines for data formatting and delivery, educational materials, and an endorsement program to recognize compliant publisher data feeds. Current priorities include increasing adoption of KBART best practices.

Launch of Directory of Open Access Books by Eelco FerwerdaOAbooks
The document discusses the official launch of the Directory of Open Access Books (DOAB). Key points:
- DOAB is a discovery service that provides a searchable index and links to peer-reviewed open access monographs from academic publishers.
- It was developed with input from users during a beta period to understand needs like quality control standards and transparency of processes.
- Requirements for inclusion in DOAB are that books must be available under an open access license and subjected to independent external peer review.
- The goals are to increase discoverability of open access books, provide an authoritative list of publishers, support quality assurance, and promote open access book publishing.
The document discusses the proposed solution to build a National Bibliographic Knowledgebase (NBK) to address problems libraries face. It outlines:
1) The need for a new national service to aggregate UK library data to support collection management, ebook management, and digital access.
2) The objectives of the NBK, including enabling data-driven decisions, collection management, improving ebook data and discovery, and supporting innovation.
3) How the NBK would be built by aggregating data from libraries through a large service provider and making this available to services.
4) Related work by Jisc to specify the NBK, select a provider, clarify metadata and the business model, and design
ResourceSync is a framework for keeping systems synchronized with resources that change over time on a source server. It allows destination servers to remain aligned with the evolving resources on the source server. The framework provides different capabilities like listing resources, tracking changes, and is implemented using common web protocols. It aims to scale better than recurrent checking for changes through HTTP. The framework was developed by an international working group and the core specification is in the process of becoming an ANSI standard.

The document discusses the challenges libraries face in developing digital strategies and managing digital assets. It notes that libraries must renovate their practices to support research and learning while upholding their mission in the face of changing user behaviors and technological developments. However, developing digital strategies is difficult due to a lack of recognized patterns, uncertain directions for digital initiatives, and the scale and diversity of issues involved. The world is changing rapidly and libraries need help from various sources to effectively navigate this new environment and remain relevant institutions.
1. The document discusses core principles and best practices for library collection development, including focusing on patron needs, serving all patrons, and using evidence-based practices.
2. Key approaches covered include investigating patron needs through data analysis and input, balancing individual and collective needs within budget constraints, and determining what materials to collect based on criteria like price, quality, and availability elsewhere.
3. Best practices highlighted are maintaining a collection development policy, having processes for recommending and reconsidering materials, consulting experts, outsourcing, and distinguishing between public and school library collections which serve different user groups and purposes.

This document discusses the ethics of reference librarianship, covering topics such as privacy, intellectual freedom, neutrality, and professional development. It begins by outlining three attributes of a profession according to Helen Haines: having a discipline or training, an ethical code, and a guiding philosophy. The document then examines sections of the ALA Code of Ethics and Library Bill of Rights, providing examples of ethical issues reference librarians may face regarding censorship, privacy, intellectual property, workplace conduct, and continuing education. Throughout, it emphasizes the importance of respecting patron privacy, maintaining neutrality, and upholding principles of intellectual freedom.
This document discusses the ethics of reference librarianship, focusing on principles from the ALA Code of Ethics and Library Bill of Rights. It provides examples of ethical issues reference librarians may face regarding privacy, censorship, equitable access, and remaining unbiased. Real-life scenarios involve blocking controversial websites, groups using library meeting rooms, unequal treatment of patrons, and security measures that could impact patron privacy or welcome. The document stresses the importance of equitable, unbiased access to information and respecting intellectual freedom for all.
The ISSN Register was created by UNESCO and France in the 1970s to index and identify analogue and digital serial publications, i.e. journals, newspapers, magazines, and later, websites and databases worldwide to foster scientific cooperation at a time of Cold War between the Western and Soviet blocs. The technology available at that time did not allow wide access to this database which was made available to Member States and subscribers. Despite the emergence of the internet and the world wide web and the web 2.0, this situation continued until 2013, when the ROAD database of open access scientific resources was made available on the web. This movement to free up ISSN data has accelerated under the impetus of a new management and thanks to the support of member countries, leading to the opening of the ISSN Portal in 2018. Today, the ISSN Portal offers a suite of services to libraries, publishers and the information industry that aims to trace as accurately as possible the trajectory of serial publications from their birth to their long-term preservation. This presentation is intended to provide an overview of the progress made since the opening of ROAD in 2013 and an outline of the 2024 strategy.

It outlines ethics codes for teachers and librarians from organizations like the NEA and ALA, focusing on providing access to information, resisting censorship, and protecting user privacy. The document also discusses applying these principles through teaching media literacy, handling book challenges, and addressing plagiarism and copyright. Landmark court cases established precedents regarding censorship and intellectual freedom.
The document discusses various ethical and legal issues that school librarians may face, including censorship, intellectual property, and student privacy. It outlines the American Library Association's Code of Ethics and Library Bill of Rights which guide librarians' ethical responsibilities. Several court cases and examples are provided about how ethics relate to challenges in practice, such as handling book challenges and preventing plagiarism.
Full Spectrum Stewardship of the Scholarly Record by Brian E. C. Schottlaende...Charleston Conference
Brian Schottlaender discusses the full-spectrum stewardship of the scholarly record. He defines the spectrum as a continuum ranging from stable, established scholarly outputs like journal articles and archives, to less stable outputs like blogs and data. Libraries have historically played a role in curating and preserving the stable portions of the record. However, the digital environment has expanded the types of scholarly resources and introduced new challenges around their long-term management. Effective stewardship of the entire spectrum requires partnerships across different stakeholders and institutions.

You Can’t Browse The Stacks In A Digital Library: Indexed Discovery, Fair Linking & NISO’s Open Discovery Initiative. A presentation by Todd Carpenter at the 2014 Charleston Library Conference #CHS14 on November 6, 2014.
This document discusses various sources of information and how to evaluate information reliability. It identifies libraries, indigenous media, and the internet as key information sources. Libraries are categorized into four main types: academic, public, school, and special. Indigenous media refers to forms of media created and shared by indigenous peoples. The internet is defined as a global computer network providing information and communication. When evaluating information, one should consider the reliability, accuracy, value, authority, and timeliness of the source using standards like checking the author, date, citations, and domain name.
For many libraries, an institutional repository is an online archive to collect, preserve, and make accessible the intellectual output of an institution. For a growing bloc, the goal is to go further, beyond knowledge preservation to knowledge creation. These libraries are using their repositories to provide faculty with a proven publishing option by facilitating the production and distribution of original content often too niche for traditional publishers.
How do metadata librarians sift the incoming metadata with these different goals in mind? How do they optimize content for discovery in a wide range of resources such as online catalogs, external research databases, and major search engines? For a library that is also providing publishing services, what additional steps are necessary?
As the provider of Digital Commons, a repository and publishing platform for over 350 institutions, bepress has first-hand experience with these topics, and our consultants advise regularly on best practices for collecting, publishing, distributing, and archiving content. This presentation is intended for library professionals, whether their goal is to collect previously published works or to go further into library-led publishing. After an overview of common sources and destinations for metadata, attendees will come away with a set of considerations for streamlining workflows and optimizing content for discovery and distribution in major venues.
Eli Windchy is the VP, Consulting Services at bepress which provides software and services to the scholarly community. She received a Master's in Archaeology from University of Virginia, taught organic gardening, and for the last ten years has also been getting dirty with the metadata of Digital Commons repositories. She co-directs courses in institutional repository management and publishing, and she enjoys addressing the challenges of interoperability and scholarly communication.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
