2. Overview
• What are the problems GOKb is
addressing?
• International collaboration
• Demo and next steps
• Open data & open access

3. GOKb is…
a freely available, community-managed
data repository that will contain key
publication information about electronic
resources as it is represented within the
supply chain from content publishers to
suppliers to libraries.

4. GOKb supports the lifecycle of licensed
content
Select
• Package
• Trial
License
• Activate
• Buy
Manage
• Troubleshoot
• Manage Changes
Assess
• Measures of Value
• Use
• Costs
The Knowledgebase
supports, at each stage,
management of resources

5. Value proposition for GOKb
• Inefficiencies in current supply chain and workflow
• Duplicative data paths
• Lack of appropriate tools and poor systems integration
• Redundant data management effort
• Access failures
• Due to title and publisher changes
• Cumbersome assessment
• Lack of knowledge about entitlements
• Cost per use
• Package/bundle comparison; title overlap

6. Building capacity to support both product
and process
“the scholarly record …. is
now much more mutable
and dynamic than in the
past; it is made available
through a blend of both
formal and informal
publication channels.”
“another trend of note is
the reconfiguration of
the stakeholder roles
associated with the
scholarly record.”

11. International collaboration
• Jisc and community interest in shared services for library
management since 2008/2009
• KUALI OLE part of evidence base
• Knowledge Base+
• Ensure OPEN and ACCURATE data is available in the supply
chain
• Focus on management information – titles, subscriptions,
entitlements, licenses
• Librarians support for international collaboration
• Benchmarking, knowledge exchange, advance development
• FUD
• Standards

12. International cooperation
?

13. GOKb in the ecosystem
• Publisher Data
• Package information
Global (GOKb) • Standard licences
• National/Consortial information
• National licences
National (KB+) • Central Services
• Local holdings
• Financial information
• Documentation
Local
(OLE)
3rd Party
Systems &
Services

14. International collaboration
• Opportunities from GOKb Phase 2
• Ebooks, OA
• Both benefit from international collaboration
• Too much data
• Commonality of data
• Takes KBs into new areas
• Previous focus on journals
• OA of interest beyond the library
• Beyond Point Solutions
• GOKb data used across the institution
• Research infrastructure

15. GOKb and local systems

16. OpenRefine

17. Why we like OpenRefine
• Customizable
• Can build GOKb-specific rules and functions into the UI
• Users can create and apply their own rules
• Familiar model for working with data
• Supports more advanced work
• APIs to pull in external data
• GREL and JSON

18. GOKb demo

19. Co-referencing service
• Search for any identifier
• Search within a namespace
• Web interface
• JSON/XML

36. Open data and open access

37. Open data
“Reusable, structured data has become
the main machine for doing the heavy
lifting of moving knowledge around.”
Bill Thompson, “The open library and its enemies,” Insights,
• Title lists have no rights issues
… but data is not well structured or machine
readable
• KBART can improve data standardization
… but scope is narrow and “well-structured”
requirements are minimal
• GOKb enhances data; applies structure and
supports reusability; makes data actionable

41. GOKb and OA/subscribed intersection
• SHARE and Green OA
• GOKb can provide additional information around journal titles,
change events, and organizations
• Use co-reference service to map SHARE registry to subscribed
collection
• Jisc Monitor work on shared services for OA
• “GUIDE” – Gathering Useful IDs Early
• Compliance requirements of funders
• Tracking transition to open access
• Analytics
