Technology Trends in Libraries - Today & TomorrowRachel Vacek
This presentation discusses the basic concepts of Web 2.0 and how they are being used in libraries. It provides examples of these concepts, and emphasizes that over the next several years, the concepts of Web 2.0 (collaboration, participation, tagging, community, etc.) will only grow, but the actual technologies themselves will change.
Introduction to digital libraries - definitions, examples, concepts and trend...Olaf Janssen
This presentation gives an introduction to digital libraries.
It first explores different defintions of the phrase "Digital Library".
It then looks at 11 real life examples of digital library websites (slides 44-112), including Europeana, Google Books, Flickr the Commons, Delpher, Wikisource, The Memory of the Netherlands and Project Gutenberg. Each of these DLs is assessed against five different criteria (concepts, properties)
- Content/User experience
- Cultural heritage domain (libraries, archives, museums, AV-institutions)
- Controlled / run by
- Content providing parties
- User involvement
Many references are made to Web2.0-concepts from Tim O'Reilly's article http://www.oreilly.com/pub/a/web2/archive/what-is-web-20.html
From these 11x5 = 55 datapoints 6 trend plots are drawn (slides 116-166) to show "what is hot" and "what is not" in the current DL-landscape. Key slide summarizing this = no 168
Finally, some strategies for content & brand distribution of DLs are being discussed (SEO, Wikipedia, social & ego networks) , as well as some financial trends in DLs
This presentation was given by Olaf Janssen (National Library of the Netherlands - KB) as a lecture for students of the master's course "The Library" at Leiden University, most recently on 3-11-2016.

Open Science, Open Data: towards a new transparent and reproducible ecosystemLIBER Europe
Presented at the Preforma Open Source Workshop 8 April 2016
As a library membership organization, LIBER works on addressing Open Science barriers. Standardisation of file formats can really help in overcoming some of these barriers: it enables us to process and preserve data in a controlled way, it helps ensure that outputs are really open and accessible in the long term and it improves interoperability of new tools and services. Making sure data is stored in a controlled way and can be (re) used today and in the future is an important element in Open Science. We see this as not only a technical challenge but also a social one: awareness, trust and community building is needed in order to ensure uptake of these standards. Libraries therefore have a valuable role to play in the development of good research data management throughout all phases of the Open Data lifecycle.

Making Web2.0 for science: Co-production of Web2.0 platforms and knowledgeJames Stewart
This paper examines how two contrasting scholarly publishers are responding to the opportunities and challenges of Web 2.0 to innovate their services. Our findings highlight the need to take seriously the role of publishers in the move towards a vision of more rapid and open scholarly communication and to understand the factors that shape their role as intermediaries in the innovation pathways that may be needed to achieve it.

Building an Institutional Repository Program in Two Months or Less: The Good,...Abby Clobridge
Most of the literature related to creating an institutional repository program suggests starting small -- either with one department or a project such as electronic theses and dissertations. At Bucknell University, we took an entirely different approach in an attempt to get broader experience by working with a cross-section of members of the university community and multiple types of digital objects all in one shot. This initial collection was built around Bucknell's participation in Focus the Nation, a one-day national teach-in being held at colleges and universities, designed to raise awareness about environmental issues. The resulting archive includes video and slide shows from faculty presentations, digital images taken of students and faculty with exhibits, electronic copies of research posters, and other relevant materials. Join us to learn about our experiences, problems encountered, and success stories as we managed to get an institutional repository program off the ground in less than two months. Topics will include: faculty copyright issues, developing a license for submitting materials to a repository; video recording an event from a novice's perspective; working with video files; using an Akamai server; attempting to build a collection with other institutions; getting submissions from students; and Open Access 101 for faculty -- a.k.a., yes, it will be accessible on the Internet.
Presentation given at EDUCAUSE conference in Orlando, FL October 2008.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

8. Institutional Repositories
“In my view, a university-based institutional
repository is a set of services that a university offers
to the members of its community for the
management and dissemination of digital materials
created by the institution and its community
members.”
- Cliff Lynch, 2003 ‘Institutional repositories: Essential infrastructure for
scholarship in the digital age.’
9. IR Content
Pre-prints & post-prints (peer-reviewed articles)
Born-digital scholarship
Enhanced publications
Data sets
Electronic Theses & Dissertations
Open Educational Resources (OERS)
Grey literature – conference proceedings, technical
reports

10. Institutional Repositories
“… It is most essentially an organizational
commitment to the stewardship of these digital
materials, including long-term preservation where
appropriate, as well as organization and access or
distribution.”
- Cliff Lynch, 2003 ‘Institutional repositories: Essential infrastructure for
scholarship in the digital age.’

• Demand for immediate, complete access to materials.
• Support for new forms, new content types.
• Continually-evolving landscape.
• Uses ICT for redefinition of our work.
• Usage data measure value.
13. Open Access (OA)
“Open-access (OA) literature is
digital, online, free of charge,
and free of most copyright and
licensing restrictions. What
makes it possible is the internet
and the consent of the author
or copyright-holder.”
– Peter Suber, A Very Brief
Introduction to Open Access
14. Open Access
Two kinds of free:
1) Free cost – to
consumers
2) Free of usage
restrictions, access
limitations
15. Purpose of OA
To use Information
Communication Technology
(ICT) to increase and
enhance
dissemination of
scholarship.
16. What does this mean?
Through Open Access…
- Increased access
- Further, broader (global) dissemination
- Impact of research increases
- Increased visibility
- Funding dollars have more impact
17. Two Methods for Open Access:
1) Publish in an Open Access journal. [gold
OA]
2) Publish in any peer-reviewed journal and
deposit refereed version in an Open
Access repository. [green OA]
Peer-review is critical for either method.

26. Guiding Principles
Align the program with institutional and
library strategic plans and initiatives.
Each institution is different. Every institution
has its own culture, needs, and priorities.
Create a program that fits your institution
at this particular point in time.
27. Guiding Principles
A repository is not a static entity. It should
change over time.
Keep it simple. The easiest, simplest solution
is usually the best. Don’t overcomplicate
processes.
28. Guiding Principles
Don’t let technology drive decisions. Use
technology to streamline processes and solve
problems, not drive policy decisions.
Consider the repository to be a production
environment. Invest time and effort in
developing processes that will support the 80%
of situations, not the exceptions.
29. Guiding Principles
Don’t make the repository about the library.
The repository program should be designed
to reflect the needs of the university as a
whole.
