- 50. In September 2006, I was invited to give the plenary at the 3rd Meeting of AUNILO, on ‘Resource Sharing’. Very diverse in nearly everyway but shared geography, the leading ASEAN universities were planning an ASEAN Digital Library. Sharing infrastructure even if they had to have separate subscriptions.

- 55. Everyday is a school day, I intend to learn more, perhaps to become a student again! In September 2009, I have the good fortune to visit China, another long-lived civilization, one that is also a society re-emerging onto the world stage. I looked to find a single image, that signifies the potential that China has to re-make history and geography. Looking to the future Many popular icons, and I have started to read the Tang poets, but in the end … And I await your questions THANK YOU … I chose this.
Editor's Notes
- The arena for this sharing is defined by various aspects of geography. Most obviously there is the particular geography of the UK, and of China. Then there is the organisational geography of the universities, colleges and institutes in which research and teaching takes place. There is also the interesting twist that the Internet gives to the geography of access and supply.
- First ‘civic’ university in Britain, Founded as ‘Tounis College’ by Town Council of Edinburg Earlier European universities had been extensions of religious monasteries Bologna (Italy), Oxford, Cambridge, Paris, St Andrews (Scotland) even earlier ‘universities’ in what was to become Spain were Islamic Library is older: established by gift to the Council of printed works and manuscripts from Clement Little in 1580 Now have lead in Informatics (Digital Revolution)
- http://www.topuniversities.com/worlduniversityrankings/university_rankings_news/article/times_higher_education_qs_world_university_rankings_methodology/ I like to encourage the thought that EDINA is a jewel in the Crown! Edinburgh was also 23rd in 2007, up from 30th in 2005. University of Melbourne emerges by some distance as Asia’s favourite institution with recruiters - being taken as a challenge for UK universities! Asia/Pacific: Japan 10; Australia 9; China 6 - but changing all the time …
- 26,424 students in 2008/9 Strategy is to reduce dependence on Government and to internationalize Note: EDINA earns (£2.5m) of the (£4m) the University gets from the JISC [update]
- Productive collaboration between the University of Edinburgh and China stretches back at least 150 years. The Confucius Institute for Scotland works to continue the University’s long tradition of innovation and internationalism. * promoting scholarship relating to China * developing senior visiting fellow programmes * supporting specific programmes of research
- JISC has just re-jigged its website - worth a look if you have any spare time - you can find it with Google …
- As many of you will know, JISC is the Joint Systems Committee of the UK funding bodies for higher and further education. It has a number of sub-committees which help inform policy and also watch over programmes of funding and the operation of services, such as those provided by the two National Data Centres. It has also set up a company, JISC Collections as a legal body to broker licences.
- EDINA may be less familiar, at least to all of you. It is a national academic data centre, established in 1995 following the success of the University of Edinburgh putting forward its Data Library in an open competition to set up three datacentres capable of hosting and providing access to bibliographic datasets and numeric research data. The other two were BIDS, which subsequently moved into the private sector as Ingenta, and MIDAS, the data centre at the University of Manchester - its now renamed as Mimas. The mission of EDINA, which incidentally is the older poetic name for Edinburgh, is to enhance productivity of research, learning and teaching in the UK. It used to host a range of key A&T databaes like BIOSIS ~Previews, Compendex, Inspec, Art Abstracts etc, but now the services on journal …. As you can see, EDINA is a funded by JISC … <click>
