Stockholm University Library (SUB) and Karolinska Institutet
University Library (KIB) have taken different approaches on
how to monitor the APC costs at their respective universities.
At SUB the primary source for compiling the costs is the
university’s accounting system, while KIB is investigating if the
starting point could be publication data, from which APC costs
are estimated. In this session the presenters will discuss their
findings, the pros and cons of different approaches, and how
they are striving to gain control of the total cost of publication.

“The future depends on what you do today”: evolving subject support in UCD Li...Diarmuid Stokes
University College Dublin (UCD) library website for many years supported its users by providing subject support to over 50 different disciplines, through the development of webpages containing subject lists of databases, useful websites and other related materials. These lists were created and using HTML and had to be individually maintained and developed. This presentation looks at what happened when UCD Library evaluated the effectiveness and sustainability of these resources and how Libguides were used to evolve and manage and extend subject support. This presentation will also look at how Libguides are being used to extend subject support beyond the library website and potential plans for further development.

Library Partnerships--Oh, the possibilities!Joanne Romano
Library Partnerships with patron institutions are more important than ever before. Lack of staff and funding should not be a barrier to expanding research collaborations with your patrons. Find out how the Texas Medical Center Library used creativity and teamwork to successfully establish new institutional partnerships within the Texas Medical Center.
The University of South Africa's annual Research and Innovation Week provides a platform for cross-disciplinary engagements by Unisa researchers and showcases the various Unisa research programmes and flagships. The week offers individuals an opportunity to have in-depth discussions on the challenges facing research in the higher education domain. International experts and local thought leaders share their knowledge and bring unique insights to the year's chosen theme. The week is also designed to encourage Unisa researchers to enhance their research abilities and effectiveness.
This presentation highlights how the Librarians in the CEAS and CSET colleges support research and students.
A Current Research Information System, usually known as a “CRIS”, is a system designed to help with the information management of research activity at an institution. The systems provide a common approach to organising data such that they can be used for many purposes, including support for evaluation of research, support for research assessment, compliance management and to assist in the promotion and access to the outcomes of research. CRIS also aim to provide a ‘one stop shop’ of information used for staff CVs and other researcher profiles.
This webinar will provide a brief and general overview of a CRIS and describe how such a system is being used at the University of Edinburgh.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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.

Use It!
Helps students to develop a critical approach to the sources of information and
gives advice on how to evaluate the quality of the information they find
• Who wrote the text you are reading? Can you determine the
author's credentials?
• What is it? Is it a journal article or perhaps a passage from an e-
book, or does it come from a company report, a tweet or a
newspaper article?
• Why was this text written? Consider the motives of the author –
are they trying to persuade, to demonstrate or prove something?
• When was it written? It is not always the case that the most
recently published information is the best so think carefully about
this.
• Relevant to your own work?
