Ancient Gurus in ancient Gurukulas used to impart knowledge to their pupils through oralteaching. The Gurus themselves were treasure troves of knowledge, without the need to refer to
hard and soft copies, and online resources. The long-driventransition from paperless back topaperless, that is, from oral instruction through palm leaves through copper plates through virtualpaper through electronic to digital Libraries is as arduous as it is fascinating.
Stronger together: community initiatives in journal managementJisc
There has been a recent growth of initiatives to address common problems regarding current and long-term access to e-journal content. Jisc is at the forefront of many of these with the close participation and active input of educational institutions.
This session aims to summarise the current state of key themes with pointers to future directions of areas such as sustainability, the move towards e-only environments, and shared consortia approaches. It will provide an overview and panel discussion on developing the supporting infrastructure to meet the needs of users. The discussion will focus on how institutions, community bodies and service providers can best work together to ensure sustainable, long-term initiatives by seeking to introduce uniformity, standardisation and collaboration to an even greater extent.
The session will introduce two new Jisc-supported projects in this area, the Keepers Registry Extra and SafeNet initiatives, and discuss how these fit alongside existing Jisc services such as Knowledge Base+, UK LOCKSS Alliance, Journal Archives and JUSP (Journal Usage Statistics Portal). The panel will address how this catalogue of services contributes towards a coherent strategy in the management of e-journal content.
Knowledge and Wisdom: the role of research libraries in supporting the Europe...LIBER Europe
The paper will set the scene for challenges facing research libraries in Europe using the the United Kingdom (UK) experience as exemplar. Included will be a look at pan-European development to bring resource discovery to the network layer highlighting two developments: Europeana, Libraries and Research; and, as a case study, the introduction of the Primo search engine into UCL Library Services (University College London) in the UK. In addition, Open Access to research publications and its potential impact on the dissemination of scholarly research outputs will be examined including PEER's (Publishing and the Ecology of European Research) investigation of the effects of the large-scale, systematic depositing of authors’ final peer reviewed accepted manuscripts (so-called Green Open Access) with the aim of providing input for evidence-based policy-making in the area of Green Open Access. Also, two examples of Gold Open Access will be illustrated: Gold Open Access monograph publishing and the development of Gold ‘overlay journals’. This will be followed by a look at Research Data and the importance of data-driven science concentrating on three exemplars from the UK. The requirements for the storage and preservation of research data will be explored and the potential of tools offered by Ex Libris investigated to see what it required. Finally, the paper will map the findings of the paper in terms of network developments, Open Access to research publications, and the storage and re-use of research data against the findings of the opening section – the strategic needs of European research Universities. This paper will end by identifying how the technical developments outlined in the paper need to be aligned with the top-level strategic needs of European Universities in order for research libraries to support their home Universities.
Stewardship of the Digital Scholarly Record and Digital Published HeritageNASIG
This presentation discusses how The Keepers Registry and the network of Keepers is attempting to tackle the issue of digital preservation for electronic serials specifically. First identifying the scope of the problem being addressed, it moves on to the successes, in preservation and in measuring that preservation, before moving on to the challenges still to be surmounted. It touches upon some of the specific cases on which this preservation is focussing, including legal deposit and regional library consortia, as well as engagement with OA journals. It finishes with the broader plan of action to help allow the Keepers to accomplish their digital preservation goals, laid out in the statement they issued last August, calling upon all stakeholders in the world of scholarly communication, notably both publishers and research libraries, and setting actions they can take to help in this mission.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

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.

23. Why a Preservation Registry?
• Many schemes emerging to meet challenge
• But who is doing what?
– How can libraries & policy-makers assess which e-journals
are being archived
* by what methods?
* under what terms of access?
• JISC had earlier commissioned a scoping study from
Rightscom & Loughborough University
– Confirmed expressed need among libraries and policy makers
– Warned of potential burden on archiving agencies

Scope: Journal and other serial content in digital format
– Focus on those serials with the ISSN identifier
* If its worth saving, it should have an ISSN
Multi-level: article is the information object of desire

– Issued Content, ie Volumes (Year)
– Articles
International:
– Matters for the UK

for e-materials include: Canada, Denmark,
Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, New
Zealand, Norway, South Africa, Sweden, UK
• But, not all countries (notably USA)
• and in UK (& Netherlands?) the legislation is to
support voluntary deposit, with restrictions on
mode of access

29. Registry
PEPRS
Scope: what is being done by digital preservation
agencies for e-journals
Multi-level:
– Who can register, who decides who…
– What should be registered
* Ingest pending (agreed), ingest in progress, ingest completion.
– Self-statement of methods, using comparable vocabulary
International:
– Registry must be international / governance & funding
– Value of links to CrossRef, Onix for Serials, ISSN etc

PEPRS
Scope: delivering value for various use communities
Multi-use communities:
– Librarians
– Policy makers and funders
– Digital preservation agencies
– Publishers
– Subscription Agents
– etc
International:
– Action taken in and for the UK
– How to provide and sustain an international service

33. Project Progress
• Abstract Data Model [as shown]
– Data implementation model for Project
• Sample data & data fields from Archiving Agencies
– Blogging workshop for all Project participants.
– Seek views on data flows, data fields, vocabularies etc.
• Presentations & publications [as shown]
• Screenshots from ‘working’ Prototype [coming next]
• Development of demonstrator for pilot activity
Scheduled by end 2009
• Assessment of demonstrator & future of pilot
Scheduled for February 2010

34. This is a ‘Prototype’ – being shared by project partners, and may be shown to project
associates & the funders (JISC): this shows the Basic Search
37. Thoughts and action ..
Still early days:
• Use E-Journals Register, sourced from ISSN Register
– Over 66,000 e-serials now have ISSN
• Need to agree what users want to know
– descriptors of digital preservation policy & practices
• Use network interoperability (to search or to harvest)
– for up-to-date, reliable information held by preservation agencies
on and statements about policies and coverage
• ‘Titles’ is easy, but ‘Holdings’ is difficult!
– role for DOI and Onix for Serials?
• Ensure that e-journals you care about get an ISSN identifier!
– The Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) requires it
37
38. Questions and Side Benefits ….
• ISSN is devising workflow for case where ISSN has not been
assigned for e-serial content that is being preserved.
– Including ‘digitised’ print journals
– some of which may have a print ISSN but many will not
• ISSN Register will benefit from up-to-date publisher
information recorded by archiving agencies
• Will need to focus on how to record and display ‘holdings’
information on extent of digital content preserved
– Years?, issues? Articles???
• If attention is switching from preservation to post-cancellation
access, should PEPRS try to adapt?
– But that is for a national registry (PeCAN Project)
– A national not an international responsibility
• How to be an international registry
– Managed by UK (JISC), Knowledge Exchange, EU, ISSN-IC ??

39. Re-thinking stewardship for scholarly publications
Central task is to ensure that researchers, students &
their teachers have continuity of access to the online
scholarly resources they need
• First, the Good News!
– Researchers & students have online access to journal articles
* to read & download: Any-where, Any-time
* to search, retrieve, link, analyse and use in interesting ways
– digital curation can mean added value
• So what’s the Bad News?
39
40. What are we worrying about?
What is now available online in digital form may not always be so
1. Digital decay
• storage media, software, formats, bit rot etc
2. Web has changed essentials of supply chain
• Libraries no longer take custody of key e-journals content
* online remotely, not on-shelf locally
• Role of libraries as trusted keepers of information disrupted
* licensed to access, not sale of content
– although all licences and contracts are negotiable
• Digital preservation is an an international problem
requiring international action
• Must to look for ‘network level’ solution
– Multiple copies held in multiple places (a network of libraries)
