SGCI - The Science Gateways Community Institute: International Collaboration ...Sandra Gesing
Science gateways - also called virtual research environments or virtual labs - allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, instruments, and other resources specific to their disciplines. The US Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI), opened in August 2016, provides free resources, services, experts, and ideas for creating and sustaining science gateways. It offers five areas of services to the science gateway developer and user communities: the Incubator, Extended Developer Support, the Scientific Software Collaborative, Community Engagement and Exchange, and Workforce Development. While all these services are available to US-based communities, the Incubator, the Scientific Software Collaborative and the Community Engagement and Exchange serve also the international communities. SGCI aims at supporting beyond borders on international scale with diverse measures and to form and deepen collaborations with partner organizations and coalitions beneficial and/or related to the science gateways community. Research topics are independent of national borders and researchers spread worldwide can benefit from each other’s research results, software, data and from lessons learned — via online materials and publications or at international events. The gateway community has benefitted from this type of exchange for years and one mission of SGCI is to support the international community. This talk will present related work describing the benefits of international collaborations generally, and specifically as they relate to science gateways. It will go into detail regarding SGCI’s ongoing work on an international scale and SGCI's work planned in the near future to foster collaborations under consideration of challenges such as different timezones and long distances between collaborators.
Presenting the following paper “Science Gateways: The Long Road to the Birth of an Institute” by Sandra Gesing, Nancy Wilkins-Diehr, Maytal Dahan, Katherine Lawrence, Michael Zentner, Marlon Pierce, Linda Hayden, Suresh Marru at HICSS50 Conference.
The talk gives an overview on current trends for developing science gateways also called virtual labs or virtual research environments. It presents the services of the US Science Gateways Community Institute and international collaborations in the context of science gateways.

Understanding impact through alternative metrics: developing library-based as...Kristi Holmes
There’s never been a more critical need to better understand the impact of research efforts. The challenging state of funding models (1) and an enhanced pressure on young investigators to stand out from the crowd magnify this need as well as the perceived value of locally based impact services. These services are leveraged by a diverse range of stakeholders, from individuals to university-level decision makers and strategists. Individuals often wish to better demonstrate impact of published works to promotion committees or describe the impact of research studies to funding agencies when applying for funding or complying with institution-level or federal reporting exercises. Research groups, departments, and institutions often wish to discover how research findings are being used to promote science and gain a better overall view of research publications and outputs.
Libraries are particularly well poised to meet the need to understand a more nuanced view of impact. Libraries are trusted, neutral parties with a tradition of service and support and often act as technology hubs on campus with IT and data expertise. Librarians are trained information professionals with information and searching skills and a keen understanding of the research, education, clinical landscape of their institution. This presentation will discuss general trends in the field, including an overview of resources, assessment frameworks and tools; strategies for partnering with stakeholders; and examples of library based service models, from basic services to highly integrated library-based core research units.

"Designing practitioner research for impact" Miggie Pickton, DARTS4ARLGSW
Miggie will highlight the growing importance of impact in research generally including impact case studies in the REF, funders’ demands for impact statements in research proposals, and employers requiring impact on service. This section will make a link between librarians supporting researchers and doing (and using) research themselves. This will lead on to looking at opportunities for making an impact in practitioner research.
