1) The document discusses a webinar on the benefits of KBART automation from the perspectives of a librarian, publisher, and vendor.
2) KBART automation involves publishers automatically sending updated holdings information to knowledge bases via APIs on a regular basis, reducing the workload for librarians and improving the accuracy of library holdings.
3) While KBART automation has benefits, libraries should ensure collections are set up correctly in the knowledge base and monitor for any errors in the automated holdings updates from publishers. OCLC is working with Wiley to ensure a successful launch of their new KBART automation feeds.
ER&L 2020 - When the grass is greener
Despite tedious preparation by librarians, publishers, and vendors, content platform migrations are rarely seamless. The NISO Content Platform Migration Working Group was formed to address these stakeholder challenges. This session will feature librarian and publisher migration perspectives and close with the Working Group’s plans for improving this experience.
Walk this way: Online content platform migration experiences and collaboration
In this session, a librarian and a publisher share their perspectives on content platform migrations, and the Working Group Co-chairs will describe the group’s efforts to-date and expected outcomes. Our publisher-side speaker will describe issues they must consider when their content migrates, such as providing continuous access, persistent linking, communicating with stakeholders, and working with vendors. Our librarian speaker will describe their experience and steps they take during migrations, such as receiving notifications about migrations, identifying affected e-resources, updating local systems to ensure continuous access, and communicating with their front-line staff and patrons.
CIL 2020 - Bringing Collections to the Screen
Our NGA library speakers discuss their procedures and challenges in providing digitized content from their collections via the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF), an initiative led by the world's leading research libraries.

Crowdsourcing the Maintenance of E-Resource Metadata: How WorldCat Knowledge ...Charleston Conference
This document discusses OCLC's WorldCat knowledge base and its Cooperative Management Initiative to improve metadata quality. It notes that the knowledge base contains metadata on electronic resources from over 5,800 providers. Through the Initiative, member libraries can approve/deny provider changes and add/update their own records. While cooperative management has increased transparency and prevented bad data, challenges include inconsistent participation, a lack of change protection, and the need for clearer guidelines. The document calls for balancing provider and community contributions to better leverage crowdsourcing for metadata maintenance.ARPHA: Next-Generation Journal Publishing

While knowledgebases have become essential tools for electronic resources management, little research has been done about how practitioners have integrated them into their everyday workflows. Inspired by a partnership with the GOKb project, which aims to build an open source knowledgebase, librarians at North Carolina State University set out to investigate the practical requirements, areas of improvement, and desired enhancements that librarians have for their knowledgebases. During this program, the presenters will describe the results of a survey about knowledgebase use sent to electronic resources managers across the country. The survey results will be supplemented by individual points of view gathered from in-depth interviews with selected respondents.The program will conclude with a look at how the findings of the investigation can be applied to the GOKb project. At the end of the session, the attendee should walk away with an understanding of trends in knowledgebase management, areas where the greatest improvement is needed, and ideas for enhancing knowledgebase functionality in an open source setting.

LavaCon 2017 - Connecting Silos With Content Pipelines
The source for published content is often far outside the domain of subject matter experts, making it difficult to keep the experts engaged for timely content updates. This presentation is a case study in moving the authoritative source for API documentation out of a DITA repository and pushing it upstream through the development organization’s design/specification environment and into the code base itself. The result is increased ownership by subject matter experts, better collaboration, and more up-to-date and accurate published content.
CILIP Conference - x metadata evolution the final mile - Richard Wallis
Bibliographic metadata forms have evolved over centuries, the last 50 years in machine readable formats. The library community appears to be evolving from records, towards describing real-world entities using an agreed form of linked data. Is that step a step far enough to satisfy the ever-present need to aid discovery? Discovery in the environment of the approaching twenty first century’s 3rd decade. Or do we need to include a move into the landscape of globally understood structured data and knowledge graphs? The millennial environment of answer engines, mobile/local search and voice assistants.

Steinle "Content Platform Migrations Working Group Update"
Steinle "Content Platform Migrations Working Group Update"National Information Standards Organization (NISO)
The Content Platform Migrations Working Group was formed to address the increasing number of platform migrations in the publishing and library communities. With publishers migrating every 5-10 years, content platform vendors migrating 5-10 times per year, and librarians experiencing over 10 migrations per year, there is a lack of coordination and communication between stakeholders. The working group aims to develop recommended practices to standardize migration processes and improve communications before, during, and after migrations through stakeholder interviews, guidelines, checklists, and a communications plan to minimize disruptions to users.AMIGOS 2021 - Oh the Places You'll Go: Improving the Content Platform Migrati...
Online content has become the norm in modern libraries, with a large percentage of our collection hosted on vendor-controlled web-based content platforms. Content platforms provide tools for searching, viewing and interacting with content, and may provide a variety of additional functionality. Vendors continuously strive to improve their platforms and periodically transition from one platform to another. While new platforms can improve user experience, expand and hone functionality, and increase security, the migrations involve a lot of work and can be disruptive, affecting end-users, librarians, publishers and service vendors.

Similar to NISO Plus 2022 - Content Platform Migrations Working Group Update
Steinle "Content Platform Migrations Working Group Update"
Steinle "Content Platform Migrations Working Group Update"National Information Standards Organization (NISO)
The Content Platform Migrations Working Group was formed to address the increasing number of platform migrations in the publishing and library communities. With publishers migrating every 5-10 years, content platform vendors migrating 5-10 times per year, and librarians experiencing over 10 migrations per year, there is a lack of coordination and communication between stakeholders. The working group aims to develop recommended practices to standardize migration processes and improve communications before, during, and after migrations through stakeholder interviews, guidelines, checklists, and a communications plan to minimize disruptions to users.AMIGOS 2021 - Oh the Places You'll Go: Improving the Content Platform Migrati...
Online content has become the norm in modern libraries, with a large percentage of our collection hosted on vendor-controlled web-based content platforms. Content platforms provide tools for searching, viewing and interacting with content, and may provide a variety of additional functionality. Vendors continuously strive to improve their platforms and periodically transition from one platform to another. While new platforms can improve user experience, expand and hone functionality, and increase security, the migrations involve a lot of work and can be disruptive, affecting end-users, librarians, publishers and service vendors.
NASIG 2020 - Walk this way
Despite the tedious preparation by publishers, vendors, and librarians, content platform migrations are rarely seamless. Due to the complexities involved, a problem-free migration is the exception rather than the norm. The NISO Content Platform Migration Working Group was formed to address these challenges and aims to establish recommended practices and checklists to standardize and improve platform migration processes for all stakeholders involved with online content platforms.
In this session, a librarian and a publisher will share their perspectives on content platform migrations, and the Working Group Co-chairs will describe the group’s efforts to-date and expected outcomes. Our publisher-side speaker will describe issues they must consider when their content migrates, such as providing continuous access, persistent linking, communicating with stakeholders, and working with vendors. Our librarian speaker will describe their experience and steps they take during migrations, such as receiving notifications about migrations, identifying affected e-resources, updating local systems to ensure continuous access, and communicating with their front-line staff and patrons.
Research Data Publishing
The document discusses research data publishing and evaluating the impact of data. It summarizes the results of an RDA survey which found that researchers currently use a variety of methods to evaluate data impact, including citation counts, downloads, and mentions in papers. However, many felt current methods are inadequate. Researchers want standardized data citation practices and metrics in the future. The document also describes Ubiquity Press's approach to publishing research data, which aims to make data publication easy and encourage data sharing through open access policies and peer review of the data itself.

The document summarizes the Smithsonian Institution Transcription Center, which engages digital volunteers in transcribing and reviewing digitized collections. It has had success with over 2,400 registered users contributing to 75 projects across 8 participating units. Top challenges include improving engagement and quality while increasing access and building trust. Metrics show most traffic comes organically or from Google and Smithsonian sites. Top users complete over 1,000 events and review extensively. The center aims to provide more projects, speed up approvals, and improve interfaces for units and users while growing social media presence.
Lagace - Copyright Clearance Center April 2, 2015
NISO (a non-profit standards organization) is working on several projects related to scholarly information including recommended practices around access and license indicators, open discovery initiatives, journal transfers between publishers, and altmetrics standards. The presentation provides an overview of NISO's mission and processes for developing standards as well as details on the specific projects. Membership in working groups for each project involves representatives from libraries, publishers, and other organizations.
Scholarly Publishing Ecosystem
Publication of rigorously peer-reviewed research articles is at the foundation of scientific progress, but there is more than one approach to funding the production and dissemination of such articles. Open Access journals arose in response to a publishing system with ballooning costs and diminishing access, but soon after, predatory journals arrived on the scene to exploit the system. This talk will give an overview of the current situation in the academic journal publishing ecosystem and discuss ways that readers and researchers can protect themselves from the bad actors in that system.
Project Transfer: Five Years Later
Project Transfer is a voluntary code of practice endorsed by 36 publishers to provide best practices for transferring journals between publishers. It aims to minimize disruptions to access during transfers. An alerting service notifies subscribers like librarians about upcoming transfers. The service was recently upgraded to be more robust and searchable. Surveys found publishers and librarians still encounter issues during some transfers. Future work may expand the code of practice and increase its formality. Participation and awareness of Transfer remains important.

NISO Virtual Conference: Web-Scale Discovery Services: Transforming Access to...National Information Standards Organization (NISO)
Web-scale Discovery Services are becoming an integral part of libraries' information gathering arsenal. These services are able to use a single interface to seamlessly integrate results from a wide range of online sources, emulating the experience patrons have come to expect from Internet search engines. But despite their ability to streamline searching, discovery services provide a wide set of challenges for libraries who implement them. This virtual conference will touch on both the potential of discovery services as well as some of the issues involved.Public Knowledge Project
This document discusses the Public Knowledge Project's (PKP) transition from open source software to community-sourced software. It outlines PKP's governance structure, financial support, development partners and recent software releases.

Open access investment at the local level
Slides from the ACRL 2021 conference panel presentation "Open access investment at the local level: Sharing diverse tactics to improve access and affordability."
Panelists include:
- Sam Teplitzky, Open Science Librarian, UC Berkeley
- Timothy Vollmer, Scholarly Communication & Copyright Librarian, UC Berkeley
- Sharla Lair, Senior Strategist, Open Access & Scholarly Communication Initiatives at LYRASIS
- Tom Narock, Assistant Professor of Data Science at Goucher College
- Justin Gonder, Senior Product Manager, Publishing, California Digital Library.
Panel topic:
Improving accessibility, inclusivity, and affordability of scholarship is a central tenet to realizing a more equitable higher education system. Many decisions about open access investments take place at administrative or consortial levels, but librarians frequently field requests for access, resources, or partnerships at the local level through their relationships with students, researchers, and faculty. An open access investment working group was established at UC Berkeley Library in late 2019 to bridge this gap between larger scale strategic investment and local decision making. The group proposed a set of criteria to guide library investments in sustainable open access projects. With this group’s work in the foreground, the panel will share real-world examples of where and how academic libraries decide to invest in open access resources. Panelists will discuss commonalities and differences in strategies and give attendees examples they can apply in their own roles.

In today's world, it’s not a question of if your institution will be hit by a cyberattack, but when. Who's responsible for protecting your institution? Everyone, including the library. With higher education experiencing digital transformation and universities increasingly vulnerable to cyberthreats, it is imperative that institutions take proactive measures to mitigate the risks – and as stewards of access to campus networks, libraries are in a position to make that mitigation more effective. In this session, we will get advice on library-based network security strategies from a former university CISO, a cybersecurity expert, a university librarian, and a library technology communication expert. They will answer your questions about vulnerability, communication, and aligning strategies with your IT department. The panel will also share measures that every library can take to protect sensitive campus and student data, stay compliant with license agreements, and discourage copyright piracy.
NASIG 2022 - Common Ground
Industry standards and recommended practices have done much to streamline efficiency for all stakeholders in the e-resource life cycle. For instance, MARC is a universal standard for bibliographic records which can be ingested by most library systems. KBART is a format for transmitting package information and target URLs for link resolvers and OpenURL functionality. COUNTER helps libraries keep track of usage statistics in a standardized way, across content providers. Organizations like NISO have also helped steward new standards and best practices to help address specific pain points in the e-resource librarianship. Come hear from the Standards Committee member experts about a few of these standards, where they sit in the e-resource cycle, why they are so important, and the potential consequences of when proprietary practices prevail. Specific standards covered in this session will include KBART, EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), and COUNTER, from the library and publisher perspectives.
NASIG 2021 Don't wait automate! Industry perspectives on KBART automation
When trying to manage their electronic resources, librarians spend a significant amount of time in vendor knowledgebases to make sure that content is integrated properly. This is often a tedious and painful process, which--extrapolated out to each content provider--can be a drain on library resources. Thankfully, there is a way to mitigate this pain point, through the use of KBART automation. By using a NISO Recommended Practice, librarians can now have publishers transfer their institutional holdings information directly into vendor knowledgebases. The result is no more messy and time-consuming manual title management.
In this session, we'll hear from those involved with enabling KBART automation at the publisher and vendor level. This will specifically detail the work required to actually make this happen. The case will also be made for library adoption of this feature and how it will help end library headaches related to electronic resources management once and for all. There will be time for questions at the end to discuss the benefits and pitfalls of KBART automation. This session is co-sponsored by the NASIG Standards Committee.

ScyllaDB Tablets: Rethinking Replication
ScyllaDB is making a major architecture shift. We’re moving from vNode replication to tablets – fragments of tables that are distributed independently, enabling dynamic data distribution and extreme elasticity. In this keynote, ScyllaDB co-founder and CTO Avi Kivity explains the reason for this shift, provides a look at the implementation and roadmap, and shares how this shift benefits ScyllaDB users.
Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
