The document discusses ways for research groups to make their output more discoverable, sharable, and impactful online. It suggests using APIs, metadata standards, and identifiers to connect related research outputs across different platforms and aggregate them on a group website. Capturing altmetrics and comments can help measure the broader impact of published work. The ideal future group website would integrate these features to showcase all of a group's research and engagement in one place.

No more waiting! Tools that work Today to reveal dataset useHeather Piwowar
This document discusses the need to better understand the impact of datasets beyond just citations. It notes that datasets can be engaged with in many ways, such as through views, saves, discussions, and recommendations, by various groups like researchers, teachers, students, and policymakers. It calls for exposing more metrics of engagement, supporting more tools for interacting with datasets at all stages, and making metrics and data more openly available to help reveal how datasets are being used.
This document discusses analyzing data about research data and datasets to better understand their impact. It notes that impact goes beyond just citations and includes many types of engagement like views, saves, discussions, recommendations by different groups. More metrics from different sources need to be exposed about datasets to analyze diverse impacts. The data and metrics also need to be more open through text mining and aggregators. This will help drive more awareness of different types of research products and changes in how they are valued.

This document summarizes Nicholas Carr's 2008 article "Is Google Making Us Stupid?" which argues that the internet is changing how people read and process information. It presents an experiment where students had trouble concentrating while reading online. However, there is little scientific evidence so far to support Carr's claims. The document also discusses how search algorithms and Google's dominance shape the way people find and consume information on the internet.
The workshop opens with a discussion of how to repurpose digital "methods of the medium" for social and cultural scholarly research, including its limitations, critiques and ethics. Subsequently participants are trained in using digital methods in hands-on sessions. How to use crawlers for dynamic URL sampling and issue network mapping? How to employ scrapers to create a bias or partisanship diagnostic instrument? We also consider how to deploy online platforms for social research. How to transform Wikipedia from an online encyclopaedia to a device for cross-cultural memory studies? How to make use of social media so as to profile the preferences and tastes of politicians’ friends, and also locate most engaged with content? How to make use of Twitter analytics to debanalize tweets, and provide compelling accounts of events on the ground? Finally, the workshop turns to the question of employing web data and metrics as societal indices more generally.

Of Libraries and Labs: Effecting User-Driven InnovationAlex Humphreys
JSTOR has launched a new Labs team charged with
partnering with libraries and scholars to build innovative
tools for research and teaching. The JSTOR Labs team has
successfully used ‘flash builds’ – high-intensity, short-burst,
user-driven development efforts – in order to bring an idea
from conception to a working, user-delighting prototype in
as little as a week. In this talk the presenter will describe
the approach to flash builds, highlight the partnerships,
skills, tools and content that help to innovate, and suggest
ways that libraries can adopt these methods to support
innovation and the digital humanities.
The document discusses the future of Cochrane Reviews and scientific articles moving away from static documents toward structured linked data and interfaces. It argues that the focus should shift from the documents themselves to the things they are about (e.g. populations, interventions, outcomes), which can be connected as a web of data. This would allow content to be more nimble, traveling freely across datasets while retaining context. Interfaces could provide better access than documents by enabling smart search and filtering of this linked data graph. The future is making content and delivery more important than the containers (documents/articles) themselves.
Data Science. Artificial Intelligence. Machine Learning. From startups to banks to the military, there is a growing demand for a new brand of expertise. Despite this need, many analytical job advertisements might as well be titled "Engineers Need Not Apply". Is engineering doomed in this brave new world of big data and deep neural networks? Fear not! In this talk, Dr. Aron Ahmadia, a seasoned data scientist and lead of Capital One's Machine Intelligence team, explains how an engineering education has become even more relevant in today's professional environments with rapidly evolving requirements, technologies, and teams. Learn about how an engineering degree prepares you for a career in data science: what courses to take, which programming languages are relevant, and what experience hiring managers are looking for.

Archiving the Immediate: How and Why Archives Should Approach Social MediaAxel Bruns
This document discusses how and why archives should approach archiving social media. It argues that social media, like Twitter, provides a first draft of present events from unfiltered first-hand accounts, and captures Australians' views on specific events and long-term trends. However, this rich data is easily lost if not archived. It proposes that archives could partner with Twitter to receive a full feed of tweets from Australia, and process and store the raw datasets in standard formats while developing ethical protocols for usage. Analyzing these archives could provide insights into the formation and interaction of online publics and networks in the Australian public sphere.
The Benefits and Barriers for Social Media for ScientistsCraig McClain
Social media provides both benefits and challenges for scientists. It allows for quick connection and collaboration with other researchers, but does not directly correlate with increased citations. While it can help with outreach, communicating science to the public remains challenging. Many scientists see communication as filling knowledge deficits in the public, but this "deficit model" may not be effective. Effective social media use for outreach requires understanding audience and goals.

#FAIL! Things that didn't work out in social media research - and what we can learn from them. #fail2015a
Workshop at Web Science Conference 2015, Oxford, June 2015.
This document provides an introduction to computers and peripherals. It defines peripherals as input and output devices used to get information into and out of computers. Examples given are mice, monitors, keyboards, printers, and earphones. It also discusses hashtags and retweets on Twitter, how Wikipedia works, guidelines for citing online sources, and assigns students a group webquest activity.
Social media can be an effective tool for scientists to communicate their work to the public. While only 18% of Americans can name a living scientist, scientists are highly trusted as a group. By using social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, scientists can make their work more transparent and accessible to non-experts. Posts should include a variety of content from sharing research to having discussions in order to educate audiences like family and friends as well as evaluate ideas with colleagues. Social media allows scientists to become a trusted source of information and normalize discussions about science.

eDiscovery is a costly and tedious process that requires the adherence to Rules of Civil Procedure and Rules of Evidence. To ensure that the process is handled correctly and to avoid issues that result from errors and the failure to adhere to applicable rules Six Sigma can be implemented during the various eDiscovery phases to reduce errors.
A small town in Virginia organized a 3-mile run to raise awareness for sexual abuse overseas. Many residents of the town came out to participate in or support the run, including a group of 50 people from a local dance studio who performed a flash mob. Witnessing both individuals who had been personally impacted running, and the happiness the flash mob brought, was inspiring. Raising awareness for sexual abuse overseas and communities coming together around the issue can help reduce abuse and give hope to those threatened.

The document outlines a presentation by Mary Trudel and Rory MacPherson on fundraising strategies for performing arts organizations, discussing how to effectively utilize social media and digital communications to build support and raise funds through techniques like crowdfunding campaigns, leveraging personal stories, and engaging advocates' social networks. The presentation provides case studies of successful organizations and addresses how to measure online engagement and activity.
This document discusses researchers' use of social networking and how it can benefit their work. It notes that social media allows researchers to see what others in their field are doing, share data and findings more easily, and get feedback on projects earlier in the research process. However, some researchers prefer focusing on their work rather than maintaining an online presence. The document examines issues through various research studies and perspective on digital identity and networking. It provides examples of specific social media tools and debates the pros and cons of using these networks to enhance collaboration versus simply sharing completed work.
Big Data in Learning Analytics - Analytics for Everyday LearningStefan Dietze
This document summarizes Stefan Dietze's presentation on big data in learning analytics. Some key points:
- Learning analytics has traditionally focused on formal learning environments but there is interest in expanding to informal learning online.
- Examples of potential big data sources mentioned include activity streams, social networks, behavioral traces, and large web crawls.
- Challenges include efficiently analyzing large datasets to understand learning resources and detect learning activities without traditional assessments.
- Initial models show potential to predict learner competence from behavioral traces with over 90% accuracy.

The document provides an overview of intelligent content and the evolution of content on the web. It defines intelligent content as content that expresses meaning in an open way such that data, information and knowledge can be accessed by people and applications. The document discusses how content on the web has evolved from documents with links to include more user-generated content and social aspects. Examples of intelligent applications that intersect multiple data sets are mentioned. The talk concludes by discussing different types of structured content and how the internet is evolving into a complex system with the web providing the basis for the nervous system.
The document discusses how libraries need to adapt to changing user behaviors and technologies. It outlines trends like social media, mobile access, cloud computing, and virtual research environments. The library needs to collaborate more closely with researchers, be involved in digital research outputs, and redefine its services and systems to improve visibility, findability, searchability and accessibility on the web. Libraries should support learning and research through communication, cooperation and facilitating the creation, management and sharing of information.
This document outlines an academic orientation programme at Rhodes University Library. It discusses scholarly communication and the research lifecycle. It explains how researchers can create a web presence through tools like social media, blogs, Google Scholar, Mendeley, Academia.edu and ResearchGate. It also discusses research data management, traditional publication methods, self-archiving, open access, copyright and researcher identifiers like Researcher ID and ORCID. The document encourages researchers to speak with their faculty librarian or the librarian for scholarly communication for any additional questions or support.

The document also outlines roles for librarians in providing comparisons of tools, research support, and helping shift reference services to support new forms of data-driven research.
This document summarizes Jim Spohrer's presentation on robust university-industry collaborations. It discusses several easy and more complex approaches for collaborations, including PhD fellowships, faculty research awards, internships, co-funded research centers, and open innovation networks. Spohrer serves on the board of ISSIP.org and contributes to the Linux Foundation AI and Data Foundation. He retired from IBM in 2021 after a career in service science and directing various university and open source programs.
This document provides a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis of open-source software (OSS). It notes that while OSS has strengths like low costs and a large community, its biggest challenge is supporting software without strict governance rules. OSS also faces threats from established institutions resistant to change and past perceptions that liken it to outdated systems. The document advocates for "next generation" library catalogs that go beyond just finding information to helping users understand content through services like analyzing word frequencies, phrases and numeric metadata.
The Connected Intelligence Centre: Human-Centered Analytics for UTS Data Chal...Simon Buckingham Shum
The Connected Intelligence Centre at UTS works as a creative incubator to catalyze thinking about the use of data and analytics across various faculties and units at UTS. It coordinates various data challenges and projects involving analyzing real UTS datasets to provide insights. These include predicting student dropout or employment outcomes. It also explores designing analytics for student collaboration and learning dispositions. Ensuring algorithmic accountability and human-centered values are key priorities for its work.
Social media sites (by some referred to as the web 2.0) allow their users to interact with each other, for example in collecting and sharing so-called user-generated content - these can be just bookmarks, but also blogs, images, and videos. Social media support co-creation: processes where customers (or users, if you prefer) do not just consume but play an active role in defining and shaping the end product. Famous examples include Six Degrees, LiveJournal, Digg, Epinions, Myspace, Flickr, YouTube, Linked-in, and Pinterest. Of course, today's internet giants Facebook and Twitter are key new developments. Finally, Wikipedia should not be overlooked - a major resource in many language technologies including information retrieval!
The second part of the lecture looks into the opportunities for information retrieval research. Social media platforms tend to provide access to user profiles, connections between users, the content these users publish or share, and how they react to each other's content through commenting and rating. Also, the large majority of social media platforms allow their users to categorize content by means of tags (or, in direct communication, through hash-tags), resulting in collaborative ways of information organization known as folksonomies. However, these social media also form a challenge for information retrieval research: the many platforms vary in functionalities, and we have only very little understanding of clearly desirable features like combining tag usage and ratings in content recommendation! A unifying approach based on random walks will be discussed to illustrate how we can answer some of these questions [1], but clearly the area has ample opportunity to leave your own marks.
In the final part of the lecture I will briefly touch upon an even wider range of opportunities, where data derived from social media form a key component to enable new research and insights. I will review a few important results from research centered on Wikipedia, facebook and twitter data, as well as a diverse range of new information sources including the geo- and temporal information derived from images and tweets, product reviews and comments on youtube videos, and how url shorteners may give a view on what is popular on the web.

1) The document describes one publisher's experiments in increasing usage of their scientific journal articles by making the articles more discoverable and interactive for users. They redeveloped their article abstract pages to include more metadata and links to related content.
2) Surveys found that users responded positively to the redesigned abstract pages and wanted more granular content like figures, tables and captions. They also wanted improved social sharing and mobile access.
3) Going forward, the publisher plans to further fragment articles into individual objects, add semantic tagging and related content recommendations to improve discoverability of relevant information for researchers.

SXSW Interactive 2015 - Big Data Startups Should Hire Librarians - 15_0316jeffreylancaster
Big data startups should hire librarians according to the document. Librarians have skills that are valuable for big data startups such as data management, project management, standards, marketing, and community management. However, librarians are not always good at describing their skills to non-librarians, so people do not think to look to librarians for the skills they have. The document argues that librarians could be valuable early stage hires for big data startups.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
