Thomas Margoni presents Open Science check list for repositories and publishers
Training title:TDM unlocking a goldmine of information
Training overview:
Text and Data Mining (TDM) is a natural ‘next step’ in open science. It can lead to new and unexpected discoveries and increase the impact of publications and repositories. This workshop showcases examples of successful TDM and infrastructural solutions for researchers. We will also discuss what is needed to make most of infrastructures and how publishers and repositories can open up their content.

Building your licensing and negotiation skills toolkitNASIG
Part I: E-Resource Licensing: Best Practices
The first part of the pre-conference will explore the role of license agreements in the e-resource environment, and detail best practices for creating agreements that protect the rights of users and libraries. Following a discussion of the legal framework for licensing, the session leader will walk the attendees through a typical license agreement and discuss the issues that various sections and clauses may present, including those that might be encountered in a consortial vs. single institution environment. The “Florida Virtual Campus Guidelines for E-Resource Licensing”, developed in conjunction with an intellectual property specialist lawyer at the University of Florida, will serve as a backbone to this discussion. The session will close with some practicalities for reviewing and editing license agreements, and creating schedules and addenda that cover additional terms and requirements not generally part of a standard agreement. Attendees are welcome to bring copies of license agreements from their own institutions to work with during the session.
Part II: Negotiating License Agreements and Pricing with Confidence
Negotiating license agreements and pricing with publishers and other vendors can be intimidating. Yet a lack of confidence is your worst enemy when sitting down with a publisher or vendor to negotiate pricing and contract terms. Part two of the preconference will focus on developing negotiating skills and strategies and the confidence to employ them. The session will explore the importance of negotiating with the appropriate individual(s), how to establish effective negotiation meeting agendas, and the development of negotiation strategies. The session leader will offer insight on how to build support for negotiation efforts on your campus, and how to use stakeholders to your best advantage. The session leader will also consider how the judicious use of language and pertinent data can influence the negotiation process. Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss various negotiation scenarios.

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
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.

Editor's Notes
Resources to take: 1) CLA Copyright header sheet as an example 2) CLA Licence User guidelines 3) Audit checklist 4) My book on Electronic resources in the VLE 5) One of my copyright books 6) LSE copyright booklets (both copies)
I start by asking if you can managing copyright issues in e-learning? Is it not a little like herding cats as they say? Copyright is all about managing risk, and when it comes to e-learning and VLEs we can’t control 100% what people will upload into the VLE – and nor should we want to. Teaching is a creative process and people shouldn’t be stifled as teachers. Technically I can’t stop anyone from downloading an image from the internet and using it in their PowerPoint, or scanning a chapter from a book and adding it to their reading list. However we can put various things in place to manage many of the risks, and to ensure that teachers have all the information they require and that our services support them working legally.
I you are dealing with copyright in libraries I would suggest getting one of the highly practical guides written for librarirans, written by authors such as Graham Cornish or Sandy Norman. These books are written as FAQ type books and very useful for answering queries you may receive from academic staff and other library users.
Jane Copyright is covered by civil law – no copyright police force – copyright owner needs to take infringer to court. Some agencies (e.g CLA) act on behalf of rightsholders and will look for infringement and take action. Copyright covers the expression of an idea, not the idea itself, so must be fixed in some way.
Jane Copyright is covered by civil law – no copyright police force – copyright owner needs to take infringer to court. Some agencies (e.g CLA) act on behalf of rightsholders and will look for infringement and take action. Databases – separate rights – something qualifies for database rights if you have invested time and effort in constructing a database – even if the content is freely available.
Maria Look for C in Circle to identify rightsholder – might not be author – example of book often owned by publisher not author.
Maria Crown copyright material subject to a waiver – so can be copied without infringing ‘ Unrestricted copying’ of certain categories of material permitted Most material on UK central government websites can be used for educational purposes without permission Some operate a ‘click and use’ licence but no fee For more details see: http://www.hmso.gov.uk/guides.htm
Jane What is "fair" depends on the quality and degree of what you took. In England, Time Warner sued Channel 4 for using 12 minutes of footage from A Clockwork Orange in a half hour arts documentary about the film’s power as social commentary. Channel 4 successfully argued the criticism or review defence.
Jane Downloading information from websites would usually be covered by an implicit licence
Jane The Shetland Times vs. Shetland News case involved two rival newspapers and the use of hyperlinking to another site which objected. The case was settled out of court. With the TotalNews case, copyright was infringed by taking material from other Web sites and putting it into a TotalNews frame, in a manner which made it appear they were the originators of the materials. This was not a copyright case but a US-based law of ‘Passing Off’, i.e. passing off the material as your own.
Can use creative commons to licence your own work on the web. Can also find material licensed under CC and be confident that you can re-use it without needing to get permission. Usually you will need to attribute the author, and must share any resulting work under a CC licence. Some people licence material for commercial purposes as several different options.
Maria Licensing Schemes A number of licensing schemes that allow copying beyond the permitted acts: Copyright Licensing Agency HE Licence Educational Recording Agency (ERA Licence) Newspaper Licensing Agency Open University (separate licence needed) Others
Exact wording of the copyright notice set out in Schedule of the Licence Realise that can’t technically restrict readings to groups of students always, so LSE copyright cover sheet includes a statement to say only students on the course of study should download or print the reading Reading list systems that allow browsing are fine but you must be able to present usage stats during a CLA Audit to prove that excessive students are not accessing the reading other than those on a course Scanning can be devolved to staff, but a managed service works best and is what CLA prefer if staff resources allow this
CLT manage the service and our guidance suggests that staff are not allowed to digitise material themselves
Growing demand for this service – managing on a shoe string rather!
