Did you know that the vast majority of journals allow authors to make their articles (either the pre-refereed version, the post-refereed version, or the publisher-branded PDF) freely available online? However, the responsibility usually lies with you, the author, to do the online posting, and many journals specify that you can post only in a non-commercial institutional repository (as opposed to sites like Academia.edu).
Happily, the Graduate Center now has an institutional repository, Academic Works, ready to accept, store, and preserve your works — journal articles, book chapters, conference papers, data sets, etc. Learn why and how to submit your works to Academic Works.
This workshop will explore the skill sets for scholarly
communication including questions about future
requirements, the language we are using in this space and,
beyond skills, what type of people are suited to different
aspects of librarianship. Scholarly communication requires
people who are able to be flexible in their approach, rather
than ‘rule followers’, which may mean a fundamental shift
in the library workforce into the future. Working collectively,
the session will consider the implications for upskilling our
‘legacy’ workforce.
Getting an Octopus into a String Bag - The complexity of communicating with t...Danny Kingsley
This is a presentation given to the Researcher to Reader conference held in London 15-16 February 2016 (http://r2rconf.com/)
Abstract: Universities are, by their nature, tribal; but the tribes extend beyond disciplinary boundaries, with different administrative areas having their own behavioural norms. Increased expectations for researchers and their institutions to be accountable for their funding poses huge communication challenges, particularly for large devolved institutions. Many of these tribes are now having to work together in ways that they have not before, creating an unprecedented opportunity.
What is ‘research impact’ in an interconnected world?Danny Kingsley
This talk looks at what researchers need to do to ensure their research is widely disseminated and reaches the largest audience possible. In summary: Publishing a paper is the beginning not the end; Making work open access does not mean it is accessible; Writing in plain language is translating, not dumbing it down; Sharing work involves peer networks and publishing platforms and If you don't take control of your online presence someone/something else will. The presentation was originally given as part of the Cambridge University Alumni Festival on 27 September 2015.

The Abstract:
"The library community has been almost silent on the issue of text and data mining (T&DM) partly due to concerns about the risk of having institutions ‘cut off’ from subscriptions due to large downloads of research articles for the purpose of mining. This workshop is an intention to identify where the information rests about T&DM - including looking at the details as they appear in Jisc negotiated licenses - consider some case studies and develop together a set of principles that identify the position of research libraries in the on the issue of T&DM.

Stop Press: Libraries' Role in the Future of PublishingDanny Kingsley
This was presented to the SLA2016 conference in Philadelphia on 12 June.
ABSTRACT: Libraries are moving from curators of bought content to providing access to research or industry outputs. This activity can range from the relatively informal process of dissemination through a repository to acting as publishers - through the hosting of research journals, bibliographies and newsletters to the provision of editorial services and advice. This 90 minute Master Class will look at different models of publishing in the library environment with several examples of publishing activity in different libraries. The session will start with a strategic overview of the need for libraries to actively engage in the dissemination of information created by their organisations. The discussion will cover the staffing implications including how to recruit and train for the required skills sets. Attendees will work through some of the issues that need to be considered if a library is interested in publishing, including some of the legal implications and the different software and technical platforms available. Ideas will be workshopped about ways to engage the institutional community and encourage uptake of services on offer. The class aims to provide practical information to allow attendees to make decisions about what services are achievable to offer their clients, both from a technical and a staffing perspective. Attendees who are currently publishing are actively encouraged to participate in the discussion.

You Know What You Write, But Do You Know Your Rights? Understanding and Prote...Jill Cirasella
When you publish a journal article, you sign a copyright agreement. Do you know what you’re agreeing to when you sign it? Different journals have different policies:
Some journals require you to relinquish your copyright. (You then have to ask permission or even pay to share your article with students and colleagues!)
Some journals allow you to retain some rights (e.g., the right to post online).
Some journals leave copyright in your hands. (You simply give the journal a non-exclusive license to publish the article.)
How can you find out a journal’s policy? How can you negotiate your contract to make the most of your rights as a scholar, researcher, and author? Come learn how to preserve your rights to reproduce, distribute, and display the work you create.

Fake Journals and Conferences: What to Know about the FauxJill Cirasella
As a researcher, you are eager to publish your work in journals and present at conferences. But don’t let your eagerness allow you to be fooled by fake (often called “predatory”) journals or conferences. These low-quality outlets exist for the sole purpose of profit, not for the dissemination of peer-reviewed research. Indeed, they frequently lie about their peer review practices and engage in other forms of deceit. Learn how to spot these bad actors and critically evaluate any journal or conference before submitting a paper or proposal.
Open Access Theses & Dissertations: Airing the Anxieties & Finding the FactsJill Cirasella
Writing a thesis or dissertation is hard, and now that most theses and dissertations are deposited and distributed electronically, graduating students face an additional complication: they must decide whether they want to make their dissertations immediately open access (OA), or, at universities that require OA, they must come to terms with the fact that their work will be OA. In this presentation, I survey and scrutinize the anxieties and myths surrounding OA theses and dissertations.
Whose To Use? And Use As They Choose? Creative Commons Licenses in Wikipedia ...Jill Cirasella
Unlike traditional scholarly journals, Wikipedia and open access journals do not ask contributors to sign away their rights. Contributors to these venues retain the right to copy, distribute, and reuse their own words and works. This presentation takes a careful look at the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (used by Wikipedia) and the Creative Commons Attribution License (used by many open access publishers).
Open Access: Good Policies Ensure Good PracticesJill Cirasella
Open access (OA) to scholarly journal articles is now widely accepted as a good thing. However, it will not become the norm without policies promoting openness. This presentation looks at policies that ensure that hundreds of thousands of articles become OA every year.
Open access (OA) to scholarly literature recently hit a major milestone: Half of all research articles published become open access, either immediately or after an embargo period. Are the articles you read among them? What about the articles you write? Are the journals to which you submit open-access friendly? What about the journals for which you peer review? Are there any reasons why the public should not have access to the results of taxpayer-funded research?
In this slideshow, Jill Cirasella (Associate Librarian for Public Services and Scholarly Communication, Graduate Center, CUNY) explains the motivation for OA, describes the details of OA, and differentiates between publishing in open access journals (“gold” OA) and self-archiving works in OA repositories (“green” OA). She also dispels persistent myths about OA and examines some of the challenges to OA.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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.

Introducing CUNY Academic Works (Graduate Center Edition)
1. CUNY Academic Works
Jill Cirasella
jcirasella@gc.cuny.edu
Associate Librarian for Public Services
and Scholarly Communication
2. Setting the Tone…
“Hire after hire has responded to the mission
that the Graduate Center volubly affirms:
to create and disseminate knowledge,
through research, teaching, and public events,
for the public good.”
Chase Robinson
Chronicle of Higher Education*
* http://chronicle.com/article/Trouble-Recruiting-Top/145495/
4. What Is Academic Works?
• CUNY Academic Works is CUNY’s new open access institutional
repository.
• It collects and provides access to the scholarly and creative
work of the City University of New York.
• It includes a section especially for the Graduate Center:
http://academicworks.cuny.edu/gc/
• Only the CUNY community can upload works.
• Everyone everywhere can access and download them.
5. Scholarly and Creative Output
• Journal Articles
• Journals published by CUNY
• Books
• Book Chapters
• Conference Proceedings
• Presentation Slides
• Professional Posters
• Data sets
• Working Papers
• Book Reviews
• Creative Works
• Professional Blog Posts
• Instructional Materials
• Open Textbooks
• Undergraduate Theses
• Master’s Theses
• Dissertations
• Archives & Special Collections
• Administrative Documents
13. Why Submit Your Work?
• Making your work open access (i.e., freely available online)
makes it available to students and scholars who wouldn’t
otherwise have access and helps you find the widest possible
audience.
• Posting works to Academic Works makes them more findable
by Google and Google Scholar.
• Many grant agencies require you to make your grant-funded
work open access.
• Institutional repositories last longer than personal websites.
14. Why Submit Your Work?
• “Open Access Advantage”: Articles that are freely available
online are cited more by other articles.*
* They’re also mentioned more in news, blogs, tweets, etc.
Graph by Gargouri Y, Hajjem C, Larivière V, Gingras Y, et al.
http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0013636
15. Why Submit Your Work?
• Academic Works sends you monthly download statistics.
• Unlike many disciplinary repositories (e.g., arXiv.org),
Academic Works accepts any kind of work — not just articles.
• It also accepts any kind of file: PDF, XLS, CSV, JPG, etc.
• Academic Works puts a GC-branded cover page on all PDFs,
helping people who find your work on Google understand what
they’re looking at and who you are.
• If your publisher requires an embargo period, Academic Works
can count down the embargo for you and automatically open
the work up when the embargo expires.
16. Why Submit Your Work?
• Help improve your program’s visibility and prestige.
• Help make access to information and education more equal.
• Help CUNY live up to its mission to educate the public
affordably.
• Let taxpayers access the research they fund.
• The publisher didn’t pay you but charges readers and libraries,
often dearly. Do you want to let the publisher deny readers
access to work you gave them for free? Do you want to let them
control your work?
18. Can You Submit Your Work? Easier!

25. Can I Negotiate My Contract?
Sometimes.
Your best shot before publication is the
Scholar’s Copyright Addendum Engine:
http://scholars.sciencecommons.org/
You can also ask for permission after the fact.
(Ask me for a sample letter.)
27. But That’s Not All!
Academic Works is the perfect place for:
• Publications currently on program websites
• Publications currently on neglected servers
• Publications from GC Centers & Institutes
• Papers from GC-sponsored conferences
• Open access journals
• Etc.
Talk to me about getting these kinds
of items into Academic Works!
