This document summarizes the results of a survey of the archives and archival practices of political parties that are members of the European Free Alliance (EFA). The survey found that while the parties possess significant historical materials, archival standards and access vary widely. Many party archives are under-resourced and lack consistent methods, digitization approaches, or an international perspective. Recommendations include the development of online archival guidelines and a follow-up project to provide temporary assistance to parties most in need of support for basic archival care.

This document summarizes a research study analyzing newspaper coverage of libraries in Europe between 2008-2012. The study aimed to quantify and qualify how newspapers in the UK, France, Spain, and Italy discussed libraries. Over 41,000 articles were analyzed from selected major newspapers in each country, with about 3,600 found to predominantly discuss libraries. The articles were coded based on various parameters to identify trends. Preliminary findings showed politics/management and library closures/budget cuts were most discussed topics. Public and national libraries received most coverage. The analysis suggested the economic crisis influenced coverage and highlighted issues facing libraries.

Demo session at the Canadian Geomatics Conference. Toronto, Canada. 17 May 2011.
The use of geographic visualization (geovisualization) has increased over recent years with the prevalence of digital earths (e.g., Google Earth). We investigate how well applications of digital earths employ geovisualization principles using the example of health data. We utilized trauma data from Cape Town, South Africa. We created a number of geovisualizations at both the coarse level and fine grained level of resolution. These utilized various application programming interfaces (APIs), Google Earth, and scripting languages. We based our applications on evaluation of geovisualization design principles and extant examples in health and epidemiology

OPERAS: open access in the european research area through scholarly communica...pierre mounier
The OPERAS project aims to create a federated infrastructure to support open access scholarly communication across Europe. It involves 21 partners from 10 European countries working on 2 H2020 projects. The infrastructure currently indexes 800,000 documents by 250,000 authors receiving 50 million visitors annually, and could potentially impact 1.2 million researchers. Partners will collaborate on common actions like communication, research and development, best practices, standards, and business models. The project will be developed in phases from 2017-2028, starting with a design phase and moving towards establishing an ERIC to operate the full infrastructure.
The document summarizes the Austrian Science Fund's (FWF) open access policy. It discusses the economics of academic publishing, noting that while taxpayers fund research, they have limited access to publications. It describes the dysfunctional publication market and issues like publishers' opaque pricing and high profits. The document defines open access and explains the FWF's support for green, gold, and hybrid open access routes. It provides funding details and notes the FWF will soon require research it funds to be openly accessible.
The main challenges facing universities and authors in moving to OA for journal articles are achieving compliance, managing costs, and realising the benefits of OA. This session will outline Jisc services that help, from submission of an article, through acceptance, to publication and use. It will show how these services build on existing infrastructure, where possible, to provide a solution that, while tailored to UK circumstances, is more widely applicable.
Institutional electronic repositories: a mandate for all researcherscalsi
The document discusses open access to scientific documentation through institutional electronic repositories. It argues that open access allows for greater visibility and impact of research, increased collaboration opportunities, and optimal use of web technologies. However, one challenge is disseminating research effectively. The document proposes several actions to advance open access, including developing institutional repositories with mandatory deposit policies, supporting existing and new open access journals, and communicating the benefits of open access to researchers.
The presentation discusses the current largely commercial-based publishing system and contextualizes it within the research assessment system. It presents institution-based non-for -profit publishing initiaves and the European Commissions policies and supports in the direction of empowering this type of scholarly communication.
This document summarizes Dr. Frances Pinter's experiences promoting open access for scholarly monographs. It discusses various open access business models and initiatives, challenges around metadata and discoverability, and calls for stakeholders to work together on sustainable and cost-effective open access processes. Key points include Bloomsbury Academic's early adoption of open access, Knowledge Unlatched's crowdfunding model, and the importance of Central European University Press's mission. The document advocates for improving metadata standards, tracking usage data, and integrating open access monographs into libraries.
Webinar on Open Access to Publications in Horizon 2020OpenAIRE
Open Access to Publications in Horizon 2020 is a webinar that provides an overview of open access requirements and practical implementation for Horizon 2020 funded projects. It discusses the mandate for open access to publications and research data, requirements for depositing publications in repositories, and support services from OpenAIRE including depositing, linking publications to projects, and reporting outputs.

The document provides an overview of how OpenAIRE can help with the Horizon2020 Open Access mandate regarding publications and research data. OpenAIRE operates a support network across Europe to assist with open access training, policy development, technical assistance, and more. It also maintains an integrated scientific information system that aggregates metadata from repositories, publications, datasets, and more. The document discusses OpenAIRE's infrastructure and services, the current state of open access for FP7 and H2020 projects, and provides guidance on open access requirements and best practices for publications and research data under Horizon2020.
This document discusses the evolving role of institutional repositories (IRs) in light of increasing open access mandates from research funders. It provides a brief history of IRs and outlines challenges they currently face in supporting new compliance requirements. Specifically, IRs were not designed to track publications, link them to funded projects, or manage related metadata and processes. While some institutions have separate systems like a CRIS that can fulfill more of these functions, many rely solely on their IR. The document explores potential solutions on the horizon, like the JISC Monitor project and IRUS usage statistics service, that could help institutions manage open access activities and reporting. Overall, mandates are pushing IRs in new directions beyond their original open access goals
This document provides an overview of open science policies and requirements in Horizon 2020, the EU's research and innovation program. It discusses open access to publications and research data. For publications, beneficiaries must provide open access either immediately (gold) or after an embargo period (green) by depositing the publication in an institutional or subject repository. They can choose between open access publishing or self-archiving. Article processing charges for open access publishing are eligible costs. The document reviews support available through OpenAIRE, including tools to link publications and data to projects and monitor open access compliance.
Melanie Imming LIBER Working together towards World Class ResearchLIBER Europe
As part of our work to connect and represent research libraries in Europe, LIBER initiates and participates in strategic and innovative European projects. At the moment, LIBER is involved in nine EU projects, all to do with our three strategic directions: to enable open science, to lead in changings scholarship, and to shape innovative research.
The document discusses open access publishing of monographs and describes the OAPEN project.
OAPEN aims to develop an open access publication model for peer-reviewed academic books in the humanities and social sciences. It involves 7 university presses and 2 universities across 6 European countries. OAPEN is taking a hybrid approach, making the basic online edition freely available while other printed or e-book editions can be sold. Funding agencies would pay the costs of publishing the open access editions. The project has produced guidelines and tools to help implement this open access monograph model.
This document discusses plans to launch a new open access e-journal called the European Journal of Taxonomy (EJT) as a collaborative effort between natural history institutions. It notes that current taxonomic journals do not adequately accept or value descriptive taxonomic work. The EJT aims to set new standards in taxonomic publishing by being fully online, peer-reviewed, and integrating new technologies to increase accessibility, visibility, and links to other data resources. An organizational structure is proposed with a steering committee, management committee, editorial board, and associated group of institutions. The advantages for natural history institutions, authors, readers, and publishing staff are highlighted. A timeline for launching the EJT in 2011 is also presented.
As part of a webinar series on Open Research in Ireland, the National Open Research Forum (NORF) presented a webinar focused on Open Access to research publications on 4 May 2021. This presentation on the French national Open Access policy was delivered by Marin Dacos (Open Science Advisor, French Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation).
