The ORION project aims to promote open and responsible research practices in life sciences through institutional and cultural change. Running from 2017 to 2021 with a budget of €3.2 million, the project involves research institutes, funding organizations, social science groups, and civil society organizations. Key activities include public surveys, citizen science projects, workshops, trainings, and residencies to explore ways of opening up research processes and outcomes through practices like open access, open data, ethics, education, participation, and evaluation. The project will produce recommendations to help organizations implement responsible research and innovation principles and cultural changes to support open science.

Strand 3: Ralf Schimmer, Max Planck Digital Library

OAbooks

The Max Planck Society is a large, independent research organization in Germany comprised of 80 institutes across three sections. It is establishing a framework to support open access monograph publishing through its digital library services. Key aspects include growing interest from humanities and social sciences researchers, collaboration with publishers through framework agreements, and pilot projects like Edition Open Access for self-publishing monographs openly. The goal is a sustainable infrastructure while still experimenting with policies and workflows.

Unpicking the OA lock - Jisc Digifest 2016

Kungliga biblioteket National Library of Sweden

Open access (OA) to research publications brings with it significant benefits for UK institutions, researchers and research funders. After several years of concerted effort to implement OA following the Finch report in 2012, we have learned, and continue to learn, a great deal about what works well, and what works less well. In this workshop we’ll present examples of good practice to support implementation from our nine pathfinder projects.

LOA2020 OPERAS

The Welsh e-books consortium

Scottish Library & Information Council (SLIC), CILIP in Scotland (CILIPS)

The document summarizes the Welsh e-books consortium project. The consortium's mission is to raise the profile of Welsh higher education library services and influence policymakers. The project objectives were to establish a shared e-book collection and negotiate purchases with suppliers. The outcomes were the purchase of 538 e-book titles through an agreement with OCLC, with usage increasing over time. Next steps discussed expanding the collection, improving the selection process, and pursuing cross-sectoral collaboration.

Libraries are increasingly being called upon to extend access to their online resources to users beyond their core constituencies. Every institution has its own unique arrangements, but they all raise similar questions for the library: are these users included under our existing licences or are separate ones needed? Will we have to pay more, and if so, how much? Where can I go for advice? Learn about the guidelines Jisc Collections has developed, and hear from two librarians who have successfully implemented their own solutions: Anna Franca on KCL’s work with an NHS Trust and Ruth Dale on Nottingham’s overseas campuses.

The value of Jisc Collections - Jisc Digifest 2016

What value do we bring to UK institutions through our central negotiations for e-resources? What value do we bring to UK institutions through our central negotiations for e-resources? In this session we will provide an overview of what has been achieved so far on behalf of the community, but also look at the key issues we are now addressing, such as debating the limitations of academic journal markets, and the consequences for a transition to open access, as well as how we are working with institutions to build better agreements.

NSW DPI Intranet Redesign

guest9eb522

The NSW DPI was formed in 2004 through the merger of several departments and now has over 3,500 staff across 130+ locations. It manages various primary industries. Its intranet was managed by over 20 small, outdated websites until a redesign process began in 2006 to create a unified intranet. User research methods like analytics, surveys, and testing were used to inform the redesign which aimed to improve navigation, layouts, search and content access. The multi-year redesign launched the new intranet in phases from 2006-2007.

How OA compliant is your institution - Jisc Digifest 2016

To comply with funders' policies HE institutions will need to record data about their open access (OA) research outputs in a consistent way. In this session we’ll provide an overview of the Jisc-led tools and services that can support you with this. There will be an opportunity to discuss your workflows, plans, challenges and opportunities for RCUK and REF compliance and an HEI will provide an overview of their funder reporting and workflows.

National Information Standards Organization (NISO)

This breakout session will introduce a case study covering the development of Research Data Management services and systems at King’s College London. The focus will be on researcher engagement and analysis of user requirements – these are activities which are indispensable components in developing systems and services. A question that will be considered is: how can the requirements of other stakeholders such as the university and research funders be met in this process?

KBART-Wilson-ALA Annual 2015 NISO Update

KBART (Knowledge Bases And Related Tools) is a recommended practice for publishers to provide standardized metadata to knowledge bases to improve the accuracy of holdings information. Phase 1 focused on serials while Phase 2 expanded the scope to ebooks, open access resources, and consortial holdings. The KBART standing committee oversees the recommended practice. Knowledge bases aggregate holdings data to support linking, discovery, and electronic resource management. Inaccurate holdings data in knowledge bases can negatively impact these services. KBART provides guidelines for data formatting and delivery, educational materials, and an endorsement program to recognize compliant publisher data feeds. Current priorities include increasing adoption of KBART best practices.

The document discusses the partnership between Collections Trust and Museums Galleries Scotland (MGS). Prior to 2008, MGS invested in developing collections management standards and providing training and support to members. The partnership allows both organizations to align priorities, share resources, and reach wider audiences. It has expanded from documentation to full collections management support. Collections Trust and MGS work together on projects like the PAS collections management code of practice. The partnership provides value by connecting Scotland's museum community, sharing expertise, and enabling strategic advocacy for collections care. Both organizations aim to increase access to advice, engagement, and networking opportunities for practitioners through the partnership.

Research into practice:The present situation

LIS DREaM 1 Keynote: “… And into the zone of quasi-rationality”

Opening keynote presented by Professor Blaise Cronin, Rudy Professor of Information Science, Indiana University. In his keynote presentation Professor Cronin will provide a brief historical overview of LIS research before critically reviewing competence and practice in the field. He will identify a number of deficiencies, including lack of cumulation, “narcissism of minor differences,” false antinomies, failure to scale, and redundancy. At the same time, he will highlight several trends that may (or may not) be seen as having potentially positive downstream effects: growth in the number of faculty from disciplines other than LIS populating LIS departments, increasing rigour and diversity of LIS research programs, quantifiable growth in the export of ideas from LIS to other disciplines, greater receptivity of LIS research to outsider literature. He will consider social media both as a means of fostering research collaboration and as a subject warranting significant research attention in its own right. He will conclude by considering a few domains in which LIS researchers may be able to establish a stronger presence.

This document discusses how examining evidence, value, and impact can inform the library and information science (LIS) research agenda. It notes that LIS research ranges widely but is often poorly funded and recognized. With funding cuts, LIS must justify its value and impact. The document advocates adopting techniques used by policymakers to demonstrate cost-benefit analyses and impact case studies. It also stresses the importance of human-centered research and involving practitioners and end users in research. Finally, it calls for identifying priority research areas and collaborating to develop the LIS research agenda and secure necessary funding.

Creating a UK-wide network of LIS researchers

Presentation delivered at the Library Research Symposium. McMaster University, Canada, 3 November 2015. The aim of the Arts and Humanities Research Council funded Developing Research Excellence and Methods project, was to develop a formal UK-wide network of Library and Information Science (LIS) researchers (academic and practitioner). The project ran from January 2011 to August 2012, and was supported by the UK Library and Information Science Research Coalition. The initial successes of the DREaM project were reported in a paper that Hazel Hall co-authored with Alison Brettle and Charles Oppenheim and presented at QQML 2012. Three years later in summer 2015, Hall and her colleague Bruce Ryan conducted further research to explore any lasting impacts of the project. Those who attended three DREaM research methods workshops in 2011/12 were invited to complete a survey in June 2015. The survey questions focused on LIS work undertaken since the last DREaM workshop in April 2012. Respondents were asked to report on the use of the methods presented at the DREaM workshops; any new DREaM-inspired LIS research and publications, and their impacts; the influence of DREaM on individual career paths; and any on-going contact between those who developed relationships with one another over the course of the three workshops. Further data for the 2015 project – known as DREaM Again - were collected formally from focus groups and more informally through email contact with DREaM workshop participants. In this presentation the main findings of DREaM Again are discussed.

Research Information Network

In 2009, the Library and Information Science (LIS) Research Coalition was established in the UK by major players in the LIS landscape. The Coalition had a particular interest in supporting practicing librarians and information scientists, both in how they can access and exploit available research in their work, and in their own development as practitioner researchers. One of the Coalition’s key initiatives was the Developing Research Excellence and Methods (DREaM) project, through which a formal UK-wide network of LIS researchers was successfully developed. In this presentation, Professor Hall discusses how the LIS Research Coalition tackled the challenges of LIS research at a national level and reflects on the longer-term impact of the project with particular reference to the findings of the DREaM Again project—a recent follow-up exploration of the lasting impacts of DREaM. Not only have half of the DREaM participants been actively involved in research since the end of the project, but just under half report that their research outputs have already had an impact—informing policy, and/or determining information services provision, and/or developing the LIS research agenda. Analysis of the network ties between the participants reveals that a loose but persistent network of DREaMers endures, wherein both social and work-related connections are important.

Alpsp Conf 10 Sep 09

The document discusses the perspectives of various stakeholders including governments, research funders, and universities regarding open access to scholarly publications. Key themes discussed include: promoting research excellence and maximizing dissemination and access; realizing socio-economic benefits; assessing research impacts; ensuring stewardship and sustainability of the scholarly record; and balancing costs and sustainability concerns in any transition to more open access models. While open access aligns with stakeholders' goals, questions remain around implementation and financing sustainable open access systems.
