ICIC 2016: Building a Crowdsourced Chemical Database from the Web (Bring Dee...Dr. Haxel Consult
Besides the hidden deep web, the chemistry content of the visible web is also, more often than not, poorly indexed and difficult to search using the standard search engines. Since 2008 ChemAxon started to experiment and created Chemicalize by combining a chemically intelligent indexing and search system with a crowdsourced web exploration method. After 8 years of successful operation and continuous development, we can summarize now our results and we are happy to introduce our next-generation chemical web search and property calculation platform, the New Chemicalize.

Presentation at the American Association of Publishers Professional and Scholarly Publishing Division conference in February 2016 on the coming cost of open access compliance, and how we can reduce it
Libraries are constantly under pressure to reduce content spending. In order to meet this challenge while continuing to serve their user’s real needs, the library needs to develop a deep understanding of content use across the organisation. This means augmenting plain usage data with details of organisational structure, and using that knowledge to choose optimal license and access strategies. By taking analytics a step deeper and leveraging a broad portfolio of access options, libraries can continue to support the research process while managing costs.
We will discuss the challenges of aggregating usage data, demonstrate a selection of analytical tools, and how the analysis can inform the buy decision as well as the justification (ROI) for it. Attendees will gain an overview of analytical techniques, learn about the trade-offs of build vs. buy strategies, and come away with an understanding of key success factors for implementing an analytics program.
Globalization and the expanded use of mobile devices are dramatically changing the landscape for access to scientific content. While researchers expect instant secure access no matter where they are, legacy infrastructure and cumbersome authentication and access models present barriers to timely access to scientific literature and so stand in the way of seamless discovery. The speaker will present findings of independent research on this topic and discuss the outcomes of an industry event that brought together various stakeholders. The presentation will summarize challenges, describe potential solutions and outline key next possible steps for publishers, information managers, and researchers regarding universal resource access.

This talk was given by Darla Henderson of the American Chemical Society during the NISO webinar, What Can I Do with This? Making It Easy for Scholars & Researchers to Utilize Content, held on January 11, 2017.
Speakers: Laurie Kaplan, ProQuest; Nettie Lagace, NISO. This program provides an update on several NISO projects potentially of interest to serials librarians, including PIE-J (Presentation and Identification of E-Journals), ODI (Open Discovery Initiative), KBART (KnowledgeBases and Related Tools), and OAMI (Open Access Metadata and Indicators). The projects are at different stages in their creation, publication and revision lifecycles, but all require community understanding and input. Participants will receive practical information on how the initiatives affect their daily work and how their experiences can shape the creation and uptake of consensus-based community standards in the library and information industry.
The Canadian Linked Data Initiative: Charting a Path to a Linked Data FutureNASIG
As libraries prepare to shift away from MARC to a linked data framework, new convergences in the metadata production activities of our libraries' technical services units, special collections, and digital libraries are becoming possible. In September 2015, the Canadian Linked Data Initiative (CLDI) was formed to leverage the existing collaboration between the Technical Services departments of Canada’s top 5 research libraries and the Library and Archives of Canada. Working cooperatively, our objective is to provide a path to linked data readiness for our institutions and leadership for the adoption of linked data by libraries across Canada. To achieve this goal, partner libraries are working across departments and institutions to create new workflows and tools and adapt to a new conceptual understanding of descriptive metadata. This presentation is a preliminary report on the progress made in five key areas of interest: digital collections, education and training, MARC record enhancement, evaluation of linked data tools and vendor supplied metadata. Building on existing initiatives, the CLDI is investigating the potential of integrating linked data elements into digitized collections, as well as MARC-based bibliographic and authority records, with the aim of fostering new and interesting pathways for resource discovery. To strengthen and expand the professional knowledge of staff, partner institutions are collaborating in the production of educational and training materials related to linked data principles and practices. The evaluation and potential development of linked data tools is another area of concentration. Finally, with the goal of changing workflows upstream, the CLDI is working to engage publishers and vendors in the linked data conversation. In addition to reporting on the work undertaken in the first year of the project, this presentation will also cover lessons learned and outline some of the new opportunities gained from working on a collaborative project that spans across multiple boundaries.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
