Come Together: Interdepartmental Collaboration to Connect the IR and Library ...NASIG
Presenter: Amanda Makula, University Of San Diego
While institutional repositories (IRs) often include a built-in searching mechanism and/or are indexed by web search engines, what about our patrons who go straight to the library catalog with their information need? Rather than hope that users will stumble upon the IR from the library website or assume that they will start their research with a Google search, librarians can facilitate greater IR discoverability and usage by integrating its content into the library catalog. With strong teamwork, good communication, and a shared vision, this endeavor helps transform the IR and library catalog from separate, siloed platforms into a more cohesive collections package.
At the University of San Diego, librarians and administrators across three departments -- Technical Services, Systems, and Archives / Special Collections / Digital Initiatives --recognized this opportunity and came together to share information and work in concert to explore and enact the benefits of auto-harvesting IR content into the library catalog. Driven by a vision of providing enhanced discoverability and access, as well as promoting the IR as a whole and enriching the catalog, the team members worked cooperatively to identify specific IR collections appropriate for harvest, investigate technical logistics, consult outside vendors (including Innovative and bepress), and experiment with implementation.
Institutional repositories capture, preserve, and provide access to the intellectual output of an institution. They consist of formally organized and managed collections of digital content generated by faculty, staff, and students. Institutional repositories allow for the dissemination of knowledge outside the institution, complement traditional forms of publication, and make works visible to colleagues and potential employers or funders. They contribute to an institution's prestige by managing and preserving relevant information that would otherwise remain scattered or inaccessible.
This document discusses open access e-repositories and how they can support scholarship. It begins by outlining the objectives of discussing what e-repositories are, how to find them, what they contain, and how they can be used for teaching, learning, research and publishing. It then provides details on different types of e-repositories including institutional, subject-specific, and multidisciplinary repositories. It also discusses how to search for and deposit materials in open access repositories, issues around copyright and publishing open access. The document aims to promote greater awareness and use of open access e-repositories.
Institutional repositories play an important role in making scholarly research openly accessible and increasing its impact. They house research outputs like journal articles, theses, and other works. Repositories enhance the visibility of the hosting institution and facilitate further research by providing access to latest information. There are currently over 1,400 repositories worldwide adhering to interoperability standards so their contents can be indexed together. Repositories provide benefits like increased citations and downloads for authors, and give institutions metrics to assess their research programs. For these reasons, more Indian institutions are establishing their own open access repositories.
The document discusses the impact of Covid-19 on learning and education, including long-term effects on academic setups due to lack of physical access and digital divides. It also discusses the need for and benefits of institutional repositories to manage and provide access to scholarly works. Key benefits include increased visibility, centralized storage, and supporting learning and teaching. Challenges include difficulties generating content and issues around policies, incentives, and costs. The document then focuses on the open-source DSpace software as a tool for creating institutional repositories, covering its features, requirements, structures, workflows, and examples of existing DSpace-based repositories.

The document discusses the current challenges facing PMU's Dspace digital repository project. It provides background on Dspace as an open-source digital repository software and institutional repositories more broadly. Some key challenges discussed are interoperability, metadata standards, content types and formats, software maintenance, management policies around access, submissions and preservation, and encouraging faculty participation and updating content over time. Developing countries like Saudi Arabia also face challenges in making academic research widely accessible through open access repositories.
The document summarizes the Open Archives Initiative (OAI), including its history, purpose, and key standards/protocols. Specifically:
- OAI develops interoperability standards to facilitate sharing of scholarly content across repositories. It began in 1999 to enhance access to e-print archives.
- Key standards include the OAI Metadata Harvesting Protocol (OAI-PMH), which allows data providers to expose metadata for harvesting by service providers to build new services.
- The initiative also defines standards for describing and exchanging aggregations of web resources through the Open Archives Initiative Object Reuse and Exchange (OAI-ORE).

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Digital Preservation
"The Academic Preservation Trust (APTrust) is
committed to the creation and management of a
sustainable environment for digital preservation.
APTrust’s aggregated repository will solve one of
the greatest challenges facing research libraries
and their parent institutions – preventing the
permanent loss of scholarship and cultural records
being produced today."
"The Digital Preservation Network (DPN) was formed to
ensure that the complete scholarly record is preserved
for future generations. DPN uses a federated approach
to preservation. The higher education community has
created many digital repositories to provide long-term
preservation and access. By replicating multiple dark
copies of these collections in diverse nodes, DPN
protects against the risk of catastrophic loss due to
technology, organizational or natural disasters."

“PMC (PubMed Central) launched in 2000 as a free archive for full-text biomedical
and life sciences journal articles. PMC serves as a digital counterpart to the NLM
extensive print journal collection; it is a repository for journal literature deposited by
participating publishers, as well as for author manuscripts that have been submitted
in compliance with the NIH Public Access Policy and similar policies of other
research funding agencies. Some PMC journals are also MEDLINE journals. For
publishers, there are a number of ways to participate and deposit their content in this
archive, explained on the NLM Web pages Add a Journal to PMC and PMC
Policies. Journals must be in scope according to the NLM Collection Development
Manual. Although free access is a requirement for PMC deposit, publishers and
individual authors may continue to hold copyright on the material in PMC and
publishers can delay the release of their material in PMC for a short period after
publication. There are reciprocal links between the full text in PMC and
corresponding citations in PubMed. PubMed citations are created for content not
already in the MEDLINE database. Some PMC content, such as book reviews, is
not cited in PubMed.”

14. Data Repositories
Directories of Data Repositories
• Data repositories (Simmons College, OA Directory)
• Registry of Research Data Repositories
• Databib "Databib is a searchable catalog registry / directory/
bibliography of research data repositories."
15. Focus: Dryad Digital Repository
• Works with journals
• Requires use of the CC 0 license
• Located at http://datadryad.org/
• Costs $90
“DataDryad.org is a curated general-purpose
repository that makes the data underlying
scientific publications discoverable, freely
reusable, and citable. Dryad has integrated data
submission for a growing list of journals;
submission of data from other publications is also
welcome” -- http://datadryad.org/
16. Focus: GitHub
• A collection of software repositories
• Used for sharing code, programs, software
• Has paid and free options; free option used for open source
“GitHub is the largest code host on the planet with
over 19.4 million repositories. Large or small, every
repository comes with the same powerful tools.
These tools are open to the community for public
projects and secure for private projects.”
17. DMP = Data management plan
From the Wikipedia article, "Data management plan“
• Description of the data
• How / When / Where data will be acquired
• How the data will be processed
• What file formats the data will be in, naming conventions
• Version control
• Metadata
• Policies for access, sharing, and re-use
• Long-term storage and data management
• Budget
18. Review of OAI-PMH
• Open-Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting
• Provides a way to create a "union catalog" of resources in digital
repositories
• The metadata is indexed in WorldCat (including WCL), updated
quarterly
19. Conclusion
• Institutional repositories convert libraries into publishers, and this has
many long-term legal, ethical, and financial implications.
• Repositories exist in sort of a digital version of the Wild West
• Repositories with strong digital preservation practices and that use
and maintain standard identifiers for the digital objects they publish
will stand out from others.
• Most repositories will contain material of secondary or local-only
importance, but a few “gems” will exist here and there.
• Libraries are competing with scholarly publishers (Odlyzko , 2013).

“Investigate the possibility of constructing the world’s first all-
scholarship repository (ASR). [...] Conversations are currently ongoing
on this matter. The Department of Energy has authorized the Los
Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) to build the prototype ASR.” SOURCE
Editor's Notes
Title is ambiguous.
An institutional repository is an OA repository that is sponsored by an institution, usually a university or college. Most of its content is open access, but some may be embargoed and some content may be dark archived.
Green open-access refers to author self-archiving of a post-print of a published work (published in a toll-access journal) in an open-access repository. The repository can be institutional or disciplinary. The advantage to the author is that he or she gets to publish in a top toll-access journal and at the same time the content is freely available through the repository. There are many disadvantages to green OA. Because you sign over copyright to the publisher, you need their permission to post the content in the repository. If they grant this permission, they only grant it for the Word version which is not the version that they copyedit and not the version for which they enhance the images, tables, etc. Many also impose embargoes before the author can post the document, six months, one year, two years. Some publishers only allow green OA for institutional repositories, that is, disciplinary repositories are excluded.
A post print is the author’s last version of the paper that he or she sends to the journal. It is usually a Word document and incorporates all the changes suggested by peer reviewers. The term author’s accepted manuscript (AAM) is synonymous.
The SPARC author addendum “The form provides a templated request by authors to add to the copyright transfer agreement which the publisher sends to the author upon acceptance of their work for publication. Authors which use the form typically retain the rights to use their own work without restriction, receive attribution, and to self-archive. The form gives the publisher the right to obtain a non-exclusive right to distribute a work for profit and to receive attribution as the journal of first publication” From Wikipedia.
arXive is a preprint server. This tradition started in the particle physics field. In the pre-internet days, because of the long lag time between submitting a manuscript and its eventual publication in a journal, physicists would create mimeographed copies of their manuscripts or pre-prints and share them with colleagues via the mail or at conferences. Eventually these became photocopies, and eventually they became available through telnet and gopher. I can remember helping set up a database at Harvard in 1991 or 2 that was called the Physics Preprint database, and it was metadata for all the preprints. Then the internet came and changed everything. Today the physics preprint database is known as arXive, and it’s still called a pre-print server, but many people are submitting papers to it and then never submitting them to any journal. So it’s morphed into a type of publisher. Similar initiatives are being started in other fields. The problem is that much of the content is not peer-reviewed. We know that the major publishers make articles available soon after they are accepted, generally using names like “articles in press” or something like that, and this is an attempt to compete with pre-print servers.
Sherpa Romeo is a free database that collects green OA policy statements for journals. Authors can use it to determine what they can do with their post-prints.
A dark archive is one that is not accessible at all generally, and may include embargoed material or material being stored for cooperative preservation.
First we’ll talk about institutional repositories. They are often referred to as IRs.
Open DOAR is a directory of them.
To give some local context, I gathered information about IRs in this region.
Here are some of the principal IR companies.
Explain hosted versus software
Some of these are open source.
Explain TIND.
There are two cooperatives for digital preservation for institutional repositories.
Basically they work by having several other libraries host all your content in a dark archive on their servers, and you do the same in return.
Academic Preservation Trust is based at UVA. Its members include:
Columbia University
Indiana University
Johns Hopkins University
North Carolina State University
Penn State University
Syracuse University
University of Chicago
University of Cincinnati
University of Connecticut
University of Maryland
University of Miami
University of Michigan
University of North Carolina
University of Notre Dame
University of Virginia
Virginia Tech
The digital preservation network does not indicate where it is based but it gives a 434 area code for its telephone number, which is Lynchburg, Virginia, so it looks like Virginia is the hotspot for digital preservation. It has these members:

Figshre is unique because it markets to individual scholars. It does also market to institutions. It’s owned by Digital Science, which is owned by Macmillan Publishers Limited.
There is an organization called DataCite that focuses on citing digital objects. They have something called the “Metadata Store” where you can buy DOIs and assign them to the digital objects in your repository. Increasingly, the quality of a repository will be judged by whether it provides DOIs for its objects and digital preservation for its content.
The sponsors of repositories essentially become publishers, and publishers have responsibilities. Publishing is much more than just mounting PDFs or images on the internet; there are many activities that must be carried out to support publishing, if you want to do it right.
Now let’s talk about disciplinary repositories.
There is one directory of them that I know of, and it covers most fields, and it’s hosted on the Sommons College OA wiki.
Some of the major subject repositories include these.
Here are screenshots of SSRN and RePec, which I think is pronounced REE Peck.
I don’t completely understand SSRN. It is starting to act more like a business than a repository. Indeed it’s owned by a company called Social Science Electronic Publishing, Inc. It may also do some publishing. It also hosts preprints. It uses number of downloads as a metric to measure individual researchers.
RePEc is sponsored by the Research Division of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
The basic difference is that PubMed is a database of metadata, and PMC is a database of full-text scholarly articles. The two databases are often confused. PMC has an HTML “reader” and a classic reader and in many cases the publisher’s PDFs are also available.
Both PubMed and PMC are made available by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, NCBI, which is part of the U.S. National Library of Medicine. A lot of funding agencies in the bio-medical sciences require that research completed using their funding be made freely available, and PMC is one place where this is often done.
Data repositories publish much more than just numerical or statistical data. They also publish genomic data, structured textual data, image data, and more.

Started in North Carolina with grant funding.
One of the ideas is that people can use the published data to generate new research
They can also re-do the experiments and see of they get the same results.
It started at the University of Michigan.
It doesn’t work well for items that are removed.
ResourceSync is a prototype replacement. It aims to synchronize metadata with the objects they describe.
4th bullet point: I’ve heard the term “publications ghetto” used to refer to institutional repositories, specifically referring to green open access articles, which are Word versions of documents or a PDF derivative of such.
This is an initiative of the National Science Communication Institute. It would be centralized and would make things like OAISTER obsolete. In other words, it would centralize all IR content rather than just the metadata.
