20 Years in Digital Preservation: 2001 presentation on the Preservation Management of Digital Materials [the Digital Preservation Handbook] at the Digital Continuity Forum and workshop, Melbourne Australia.
This is the second of 12 conference presentations I have selected to mark 20 years in Digital Preservation.
This one is selected because of the subsequent influence the Handbook has had (I believe 15 years later it is still the most heavily used resource on the DPC website). It also seemed apposite with the online Handbook currently being worked and updated to its first major “second edition”.
The presentation is in two parts a keynote to the Forum on the Handbook and a set of workshop slides – consisting of a digital preservation questionnaire and a set of [institutional] responses probably from a repeat performance and workshop at a separate event in Australia.
I have almost no information left on these events but fortunately the Pandora web archive at the National Library of Australia has an archived description of the Forum: it just shows how useful web archives are!
Chair: Steve Kennett, security director, Jisc.
The UK education and research sectors have extensive international partnerships with their peers overseas. New scientific instruments such as the Square Kilometre Array and developments such as Brexit are likely to increase the institutional requirement for enhanced digital services to locations overseas.
This will require increased collaboration amongst the providers of the campus, national, and international networks and other e-infrastructures. In this session we will look at ways in which Jisc and its international peers are working to connect the global education and research communities that they serve.
Running order of talks:
16:15-16:40 - Internet2 future infrastructure planning
Speaker: John Moore, Internet2.
16:40-17:05 - Connecting TVETs on a shoestring: bringing the internet to South African colleges
Speaker: Arno Hart, TENET.
17:05-17:30 - Jisc's international strategy – how we can help you
Speaker: Esther Wilkinson, head of international, Jisc.
When aiming for reaching the unreached - Inclusion is challenged. Today inclusion is about the mindset. Include the learners. OER can include by affordable quality learning materials. Why OER matters.
An example on new action oriented policies.

Digital Skills for FAIR and Open Science dri_ireland
As part of a webinar series on Open Research in Ireland, the National Open Research Forum (NORF) presented a webinar focused on skills, incentives & rewards for Open Research on 13 April 2021. This presentation is on the topic of Digital Skills for FAIR and Open Science and was delivered by Iryna Kuchma (Electronic Information for Libraries [EIFL], European Open Science Cloud [EOSC] Working Group on Skills and Training).
Presentation during the 14th Association of African Universities (AAU) Conference and African Open Science Platform (AOSP)/Research Data Alliance (RDA) Workshop in Accra, Ghana, 7-8 June 2017.
The JISC Continuing Access and Digital Preservation Strategy 2002-5, presentation to the 2004 JISC-CNI conference, Brighton UK is the fifth of 12 presentations I have selected to mark 20 years in Digital Preservation.
This presentation from 2004 is important largely for the legacy of the Strategy that established bodies such as the Digital Preservation Coalition and the Digital Curation Centre, which still have a major influence today.
The presentation sets out the context and rationale for the Strategy including the predicted growth of electronic publications, scientific data, and data curation. The implications of that growth were seen as:
• Core funding for institutions would not grow in line with information growth;
• A need for more automation and tools;
• A need for new shared services and information infrastructure;
• A significant need for R&D and investment to prepare for this.
Therefore the objectives of the Strategy were:
• As an advocacy document to secure additional funding of £6m over 3 years (2002-5) for new programmes in electronic records management and digital preservation;
• Justify the accompanying implementation plan;
• Provide a longer-term framework and rationale for activity extending beyond 2005.

Poster présenté par l'Abes (hors concours).
Depuis 2019, l’Abes teste un nouvel algorithme développé par OCLC pour créer automatiquement des pré-notices d’œuvres, à partir de regroupements de notices bibliographiques. Ce premier pas dans la FRBRisation (aujourd'hui on parle de LRMisation) des données du catalogue Sudoc s’est accompagné d’un contrôle très strict des performances et des résultats de ce "robot". L’expérimentation aujourd’hui terminée, il est temps d’en dresser le bilan, pour vérifier dans quelle mesure, à l’avenir, les algorithmes et l’intelligence artificielle seront d’un précieux recours pour modéliser des millions de données.

Le Service Commun de la Documentation de l’Université Toulouse - Jean Jaurès a mis en place un service d'accompagnement à la gestion des données qui s'articule autour :
- d'une offre de formation à destination des doctorants
- d'un accompagnement des chercheurs
La mise en œuvre de cet appui en collaboration avec l'ensemble des acteurs impliqués au niveau de l'établissement a permis un reconnaissance du SCD comme un acteur primordial sur ces questions. Ainsi, dans le cadre de la formalisation des acteurs de la Science Ouverte au sein de l’établissement, la vice-présidence recherche a chargé le SCD d'assurer les fonctions d'administrateur.rice des données, des algorithmes et des codes sources de la recherche et de co-piloter le comité opérationnel des données de la recherche.

Poster présenté par le SCD de l'Université Toulouse 2 Jean Jaurès.
L’objet de ce poster est de présenter la démarche qui a conduit à un projet d’expositions participatives autour de la collection cartographique patrimoniale de l’Université Toulouse Jean Jaurès, conservée au Centre de Ressources Olympe de Gouges. Après avoir découvert en 2007 cette collection sans usages, alors que j'étais responsable de la bibliothèque de Géographie, j'ai décidé de mener à partir de 2010 des recherches en Sciences de l’Information et de la Communication sur le document carte. Après l'obtention de mon doctorat en 2015, j'ai poursuivi des travaux scientifiques sur une méthode favorisant l’appropriation des valeurs informatives de ce document singulier dans l'idée de développer des médiations. Depuis deux ans, j'expérimente ainsi des ateliers avec des usagers placés en situation d’enquêter sur des cartes, en vue de réaliser des posters documentaires. Les objectifs de l'application professionnelle de mes réflexions sont multiples : créer du lien entre des documents patrimoniaux sans usages et des potentiels récepteurs, les inviter à découvrir et à utiliser des documents dans une démarche de réactivation, les inciter à avoir des lectures plurielles d'un même document, et enfin proposer un autre modèle d’expositions afin de vivifier des collections en dormance documentaire.

Lancé au printemps 2021 et soutenu par le MESRI, corHAL proposera ses services à la fin de l’année. Porté par l’Inist et le CCSD, ce projet permet de collecter des métadonnées de publications scientifiques françaises issues de plusieurs réservoirs. Ces données sont homogénéisées et enrichies à l’aide d’alignements. Un repérage de doublons assure la création de notices unifiées combinant les informations des différentes sources. Grâce à un système d’alertes (mode push ou pull), le service propose au chercheur ses publications absentes de HAL. Ce dernier choisit d’importer automatiquement aucun, un, plusieurs ou tous les textes intégraux de ses publications dans l’archive ouverte nationale.

Students, digital devices and success - Andreas Schleicher - 27 May 2024..pptxEduSkills OECD
Andreas Schleicher presents at the OECD webinar ‘Digital devices in schools: detrimental distraction or secret to success?’ on 27 May 2024. The presentation was based on findings from PISA 2022 results and the webinar helped launch the PISA in Focus ‘Managing screen time: How to protect and equip students against distraction’ https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/education/managing-screen-time_7c225af4-en and the OECD Education Policy Perspective ‘Students, digital devices and success’ can be found here - https://oe.cd/il/5yV
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Value of JANET
2006 Study : If JANET did not exist:
– If all HE and FEIs independently purchased their internet connectivity the
total expenditure would be more than twice the current total annual cost of
funding JANET.
– Significant savings on the estimated expenditure would only be achieved if
institutions were encouraged to carry out large joint procurements, either
regionally or nationally.
– If UKERNA did not exist, a number of ancillary activities would be lost or
difficult to coordinate.

Information Environment
Infrastructure to support the publication, discovery and delivery of
electronic resources, and their integration into academic practice
JISC’s distinctive contribution to UK e-Infrastructure (writ large)
Information Environment began as set of common services providing
D2D infrastructure; Integrated Information Environment is application of
same approach on a broader scale
Services based around common, open specifications and standards and
agreed policies; examples –
– AuthZ/AuthN, registries, aggregators, resolvers
– Metadata schema
– Portals

New perspectives (1); “Managed Environment”
Information environment initially conceived as a Managed Environment
Not something the JISC would build alone
Is evolving as a distributed environment
The term “Environment” should not suggest a walled garden –
environment has permeable boundaries
Perhaps Negotiated Environment is a more descriptive term
06/06/2008 | Supporting education and research | Slide 38
39. Joint Information Systems Committee 06/06/2008 | Supporting education and research | Slide 39
New perspectives (2); “Presentation”
“Presentation” and “delivery” tend to imply a simple, single directional
relationship with the community of use
The web continues to evolve in the direction of participation and
increased, disintermediated engagement
– Changing nature of publication
– Increased levels of comment and involvement
– Fulfilling expectations of Metcalfe’s Law*
Academic practitioner will come to expect increased levels of interaction
with resources
Information Environment technical design is flexible enough to
accommodate this emphasis – but policy issues surround integration with
“Web 2.0” like services
* the value of a telecommunications network is proportional to the square of the number of its users

Changing user interaction landscape
06/06/2008 | Supporting education and research | Slide 40
41. Joint Information Systems Committee 06/06/2008 | Supporting education and research | Slide 41
The changing landscape
Portal – still valid and effective means of coherently providing
personalised access to services
– Portal delivery accompanied by other means of delivery
Context of use drives choice of form of service
– Role, location, task
Note changes in systems design – more component based, service
oriented architecture
Objective: effective integration of services and content at optimal points
within flow of activity – as determined by those engaged in the activity
– Search from within learning environment; publish from within VRE
Flexibility and choice is usually a “good thing” – how to provide such
choice cost effectively? Service re-use in multiple contexts a priority

JISC Collections Ltd (licensing)
Over 50 online resources in the JISC portfolio
Over 2100 subscriptions from HE and FE institutions to
these resources
Resources used 24 hours a day 7 days a week, including Christmas Day
JISC agreements save institutions millions of pounds per annum – for
example, the commercial cost of access to ISI Web of Science is
£15,000 per user per annum – the JISC agreement gives access to
every student and member of staff at an institution for a maximum cost
of £13,500 per annum
The resources are heavily used – for example, 2.8 million sessions are
conducted on ISI Web of Science per month
HE, FE, Research now schools, International licensing experiments
44. Joint Information Systems Committee 06/06/2008 | Supporting education and research | Slide 44
Examples of Savings
Digimap: save £4m per annum
ISI Web of Science: save £5.69m per annum
NESLi2 (10 journal deals): save £2m per annum
Heritage Collections: save £2.82m per annum
• Eg. Royal Society of Chemistry back file used to cost
£25,000 plus £500 per annum per institution. It now only
costs £500 per annum.

Community Content: Repositories
Area of very high investment for the JISC
Institutional, subject based, domain based
Started with work to support the delivery of eprint
collections in 2002
Three phases of investment
Third phase: 2009-11: Repositories UK
46. Joint Information Systems Committee 06/06/2008 | Supporting education and research | Slide 46
Repositories Vision
Further develop and populate institutional repositories (and subject
repositories where appropriate) – contribute to a critical mass
Develop and provide shared practice and policies to enhance skills for content
use and sharing
Build a rich search infrastructure for research and learning assets from
institutions
Refine standards and specifications for digital repositories and preservation –
improve interoperability, accessibility and longevity
Improve and define an infrastructure for the stewardship and use of
resources
Develop ways to embed content in the research, learning and administrative
processes in universities and colleges
Make scholarly communication more effective – enrich research and learning
47. Joint Information Systems Committee 06/06/2008 | Supporting education and research | Slide 47
Why a Programme?
Ability to enthuse, cajole, enforce, aims of wider strategy
The whole is greater than the sum of its parts– shared assets, shared
metadata, developing critical mass of material, shared infrastructure,
joining it all up!
Identify common interests, challenges and goals
– Web2.0 / user generated content – what does that mean for the
institution and the Information Environment?
– Improved interoperability – how?
– Work in global environment – DRIVER, OAI-ORE
– Encourage deposit – what are the ways?
– Sharing data – what are the IPR frameworks that are required?
Sharing – building communities – building on previous work

The Changing e-Content Environment
The Common Information Environment (CIE)
Initiative begun by JISC in 2001 to make better links across the
public sector to encourage more use of investment in digital
content
In 2005, JISC and the Consortium of University Research Libraries
(CURL) commissioned the Loughborough Digitisation Study
The three main recommendations from that study were:
– Establish a UK framework for digitisation
– Co-ordinate existing services
– Investigate users needs

Policy: Strategic Content Alliance
Aim: To develop a common framework of principles and good
practices for e-content activities across the domains of life long
learning and teaching, research and cultural heritage.
Main features of the work:
– Collaboration (Life Long learning, Education, Research, Health, Cultural
Heritage)
– Policy and good practice recommendations
– Economies of scale
– More integration and best value for public content
– Registers of digital collections
– Better coordination
55. Joint Information Systems Committee 06/06/2008 | Supporting education and research | Slide 55
Who's in the Alliance? - What's the Vision?
Vision:
Working across the public sector to fully realise the potential of e-content
for all users through the greater integration of services and technologies
and the removal of political and administrative barriers.
Who's in the Alliance?
– JISC
– The BBC
– The NHS
– The British Library
– Museums and Libraries Archive
– e-Science Core programme

Benefits to the Funders
Co-ordinated approach to the identification of public sector e-content
Collaboration for improved quality of the outputs
An overview of the different e-content strategies
Better market intelligence about the public sector e-content requirements
of our users
A stronger commitment to the development of standards and
interoperability
Shared direction and coherent messages about public sector e-content
provision
A common approach to IPR, Licensing and Digital Rights Management in
order to facilitate access, use and re-use of e-content by citizens
Identification of affordable solutions for the ongoing sustainability
A common understanding of the risks
57. Joint Information Systems Committee 06/06/2008 | Supporting education and research | Slide 57
Benefits to the Users
A reduction in the technical, political, and administrative barriers
which currently inhibit the use of public sector e-content
An increase in the use of public sector e-content from audiences
who may not currently be actively engaged with the e-content
currently on offer and ultimately a richer and more personalised
searching environment
An increase in re-use and redeployment of e-content resources
beyond the audience that they were originally intended for
More streamlined and easier access (through enhanced resource
discovery) to users of public sector e-content resources
irrespective of location

3. Keeping ahead
“A bit over half of the country is online, but more than 75% of those users have
broadband access. Competition to provide French consumers Internet access
and Internet-based phone, TV and even wireless services is transforming the
market. These wholesale shifts to new technologies in France make what is
happening in the US look like baby steps.”
James Belcher
