The document summarizes the AddressingHistory project, which aims to crowdsource the geocoding of historical Scottish postal directories by having users link directory entries to digitized historical maps. The project partnered with the National Library of Scotland to digitize directories from 1784-1805, 1865, and 1905-1906. It will develop an online tool allowing users to georeference directory entries by placing pins on digitized maps. The project will focus on engagement through social media channels and its blog. It recently launched its online tool and API and is now focused on sustainability and funding.
This document discusses drivers and organizational responses to research data management (RDM) maturity from transatlantic perspectives. It describes external funder mandates in the US and UK that require open sharing of research publications and data. Universities have responded by developing RDM policies, tools, expertise, and education/outreach for researchers. Key RDM components discussed include policies, storage and repository tools, expertise and staffing models, and outreach/education activities. Connecting electronic lab notebooks to other RDM infrastructure is presented as an approach to better integrate researcher workflows with institutional RDM. The document concludes with an invitation to provide comments on RDM maturity through an online survey.

CLOCKSS uses a sustainable financial model of low fees and raising an endowment to keep participation affordable and ensure long-term preservation of orphaned digital content.
This document summarizes the AddressingHistory project, which created an online crowdsourcing tool combining digitized historical Scottish Post Office Directories (PODs) with historical maps. The project had two phases: the first created the initial tool using three POD volumes from 1784-1805, 1865, and 1905-1906. The second phase expanded coverage to additional years and locations, improved parsing of names and occupations, and added new search and visualization features. Lessons learned included the need for ongoing refinement, sustainability planning, and engagement of relevant communities.
The PEPRS project aims to create a registry of e-journal archiving activities to help libraries assess digital preservation of e-journals. Phase 1 involved piloting a database of e-journals archived by 4 digital preservation agencies and national libraries. This identified issues around inconsistent ISSNs, holdings information, and terminology. Phase 2 will further develop the registry service and involve international users in testing to help establish governance. The registry will provide a searchable list of e-journals and details on what organizations are preserving which volumes and under what terms of access.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
