2017 05 03 Implementing Pure at UWA - ANDS Webinar SeriesKatina Toufexis
The UWA Library has recently implemented the Current Research Information System – Elsevier’s Pure as our Research Repository.
This is a researcher profiling system which allows us to link publications, theses and grants to our researchers.
We are also managing another separate repository which holds our research datasets which uses the DSpace platform. This is called Research Data Online.
In order to consolidate our systems and resolve ongoing issues which we have with our highly customised version of DSPace, we have embarked on migrating our current datasets from Dspace into Pure.
We have encountered a few hurdles:
-We need to manually migrate our current datasets from DSpace to Pure
-We needed to create a crosswalk from Pure to ANDS’ Research Data Australia in order to harvest our datasets
We cannot automatically mint DOIs from within Pure and thus have need to change our administrator validation workflows to include a manual DOI minting step.

Data Citation Implementation Guidelines By Tim Clarkdatascienceiqss
This talk presents a set of detailed technical recommendations for operationalizing the Joint Declaration of Data Citation Principles (JDDCP) - the most widely agreed set of principle-based recommendations for direct scholarly data citation.
We will provide initial recommendations on identifier schemes, identifier resolution behavior, required metadata elements, and best practices for realizing programmatic machine actionability of cited data.
We hope that these recommendations along with the new NISO JATS document schema revision, developed in parallel, will help accelerate the wide adoption of data citation in scholarly literature. We believe their adoption will enable open data transparency for validation, reuse and extension of scientific results; and will significantly counteract the problem of false positives in the literature.

How Portable Are the Metadata Standards for Scientific Data?Jian Qin
The one-covers-all approach in current metadata standards for scientific data has serious limitations in keeping up with the ever-growing data. This paper reports the findings from a survey to metadata standards in the scientific data domain and argues for the need for a metadata infrastructure. The survey collected 4400+ unique elements from 16 standards and categorized these elements into 9 categories. Findings from the data included that the highest counts of element occurred in the descriptive category and many of them overlapped with DC elements. This pattern also repeated in the elements co-occurred in different standards. A small number of semantically general elements appeared across the largest numbers of standards while the rest of the element co-occurrences formed a long tail with a wide range of specific semantics. The paper discussed implications of the findings in the context of metadata portability and infrastructure and pointed out that large, complex standards and widely varied naming practices are the major hurdles for building a metadata infrastructure.

Implementing web scale discovery services: special reference to Indian Librar...Nikesh Narayanan
Web scale Discovery services arebecoming the widely adopted Information Retrieval solution in libraries across the world to connect its patrons with the relevant information they seek. In lieu with the world trend, Resources Discovery Solution implementation is gathering momentum in Indian libraries also.
Considering the Indian Libraries scenario, this paper attempts to provide an overview of Library Web Scale Discovery solutions, its need in Indian Libraries, important parameters to be considered for evaluation of Discovery Services, essential factors to be considered prior to implementation, stages of implementation and finally some thoughts on post implementation analysis for measuring the success.
Web scale Discovery services are becoming the most sought after solution for Libraries to connect its patrons with the relevant information they seek. Many studies show that these services are getting wide acceptance from users as well as Library staff and making revolution in Library Information retrieval arena. Given such broad implications, selecting a new discovery service for libraries is an important undertaking. Library professionals should carefully evaluate options to meet their goal of finding the best potential match for their library. This Paper attempts to provide a comprehensive overview of Library Web Scale Discovery solutions by depicting various facets of Web Scale Discovery, how it differs from federated searching and highlights the important parameters to be considered for taking an informed and confident decision on selecting discovery service.
Cloud web scale discovery services landscape an overviewNikesh Narayanan
Abstract
The impact of Internet and Google like search engines radically influenced the information behavior of Net Generation users. They expect same environment in library services such that all their required information make available in a single set of results through unified search across all the available resources. Libraries have been striving to respond to this challenge for years. Until recently, federated search technology of the past decade was the better attempt in this area to meet these user expectations. But federated search solution is marked by the drawbacks of its slowness as it searches each database on the fly. New Generation cloud based Library Web scale discovery technology is a promising entrant in this landscape. This Paper attempts to provide a comprehensive overview of Library Web Scale Discovery solutions by depicting various facets of Web Scale Discovery solutions such as its importance to Library field, their possible role as the starting point for research, content coverage, and finally analyses the competition at the discovery front by comparing the services of major players. The comparative analysis shows that all the major service providers are extending competitive features and services, but varies in some areas and the adoption choice depends on the concerned library’s preferences and the cost involved.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

11. Data
Management
Plan (DMP)
• A data management plan (DMP) contains all the
information related to managing the data for
your project: what data, stored where by whom,
how it is looked after and when it is made public.
• A researcher needs to make the plan in
compliance with funders and Institutional
requirements
• There are various tools and best practices guides
to help in this process
13. DMP-
Common
questions
Description of data to be collected / created (i.e. content,
type, format, volume...)
Standards / methodologies for data collection &
management
Ethics and Intellectual Property (highlight any restrictions
on data sharing e.g. embargoes, confidentiality)
Plans for data sharing and access (i.e. how, when, to whom)
Strategy for long-term preservation
14. DMP tools
• DMP Tool (https://dmptool.org/) is a free,
open-source, online application service of
the University of California Curation Center of
the California Digital Library.It helps

20. Metadata
• What is Metadata
Metadata is defined as "structured
information that describes, explains,
locates, or otherwise makes it easier
to retrieve, use, or manage an
information resource. Metadata is
often called data about data or
information about information.
Metadata Type Example
Properties
Descriptive metadata
Common fields which help users to discover
online sources through searching and

Metadata standards/schemas may vary from discipline to
discipline. Dublin Core is one of the most commonly-used
generic metadata standards.
21. Discipline specific metadata- Examples
• Agricultural Metadata Element Set (AgMES)
• Astronomy Visualization Metadata Standard (AVMS)
• Access to Biological Collection Data (ABCD)
• Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Learning Object
Metadata (LOM) standard:
• More examples are available in Texas Tech University
https://guides.library.ttu.edu/c.php?g=765394&p=5697292
22. Sensitive data
Sensitive data can be information that is protected
against unwarranted disclosure. It can include but
not limited to personal data, proprietary data and
other restricted or confidential Data that should be
protected from unauthorised access.
Sharing Sensitive Information- Important points
• Including provision for data sharing when gaining
informed consent
• Protecting people's identities by anonymising
data where needed
• Considering controlling access to data
• Applying an appropriate licence
23. Data Sharing
• Avoid duplication
• Scientific integrity
• More collaboration
• Better research
• Increased citation
BENEFITS
• Public expectations
• Government agenda
• Institutional agenda
DRIVERS
24. Data sharing
Important points
• Institutional Policies:
• Funder Policies: Researchers should be aware of any funder
policies that may stipulate the ways and restrictions on data
dissemination and sharing.
• Research Collaboration Agreement: Researchers should come
to an agreement on how, when, and by whom the data will be
accessed, used and disseminated in the future if appropriate.
• Usage of Extant Proprietary Data: Researchers should seek
permission from the data owner or producer prior to the
sharing the original or derived data if appropriate.
• Re-use of Others’ Data: If the research data was not previously
collected by you, instead of sharing the research data,
researchers should give credit to the data producers with a
proper data citation.
