Research libraries in a European e-science infrastructureLIBER Europe
Which role can research libraries in a European e-science infrastructure?
E-science and digital preservation are crucial parts of the 2009-2012 strategy of the European Research LIbraries. They offer great opportunities for research libraries for getting involved in the research and education environment from the very start of data creation. Digital Preservation should not be done for its own sake but as a way to valorise knowledge (use and re-use). We have to break the walls between all stakeholders in digital preservation (libraries, datacentres, researchers, publishers). Research institutes need librarians with a good understanding of modern research, with an ability to bring the library’s services into the researcher’s environment and integrate data sharing and curation in the researcher’s workflow. We need researchers with good understanding of information and curation matters.
Open Science, Open Data: towards a new transparent and reproducible ecosystemLIBER Europe
Presented at the Preforma Open Source Workshop 8 April 2016
As a library membership organization, LIBER works on addressing Open Science barriers. Standardisation of file formats can really help in overcoming some of these barriers: it enables us to process and preserve data in a controlled way, it helps ensure that outputs are really open and accessible in the long term and it improves interoperability of new tools and services. Making sure data is stored in a controlled way and can be (re) used today and in the future is an important element in Open Science. We see this as not only a technical challenge but also a social one: awareness, trust and community building is needed in order to ensure uptake of these standards. Libraries therefore have a valuable role to play in the development of good research data management throughout all phases of the Open Data lifecycle.

Dissertation as a document provides data on new knowledge, but also – encodes important scientometrical information. A study of social structure of science through data found in dissertations and theses provides bibliometrical data for study of national style of science. The pilot study, described below encourages the library community to improve their documentation in this area, in particular, the notation of supervisors and institutions within a bibliographical record. It is proposed that the CBD argue for stricter standards of library/archive record of dissertation.
Along with the dissertation data in the new IsisCB platform the social structure of the history of science community might be analysed. Scientometrical study of dissertation abstracts at a local level (ie., Lithuania) will provide a model for future studies of scholarly communication at global level.

Knowledge and Wisdom: the role of research libraries in supporting the Europe...LIBER Europe
The paper will set the scene for challenges facing research libraries in Europe using the the United Kingdom (UK) experience as exemplar. Included will be a look at pan-European development to bring resource discovery to the network layer highlighting two developments: Europeana, Libraries and Research; and, as a case study, the introduction of the Primo search engine into UCL Library Services (University College London) in the UK. In addition, Open Access to research publications and its potential impact on the dissemination of scholarly research outputs will be examined including PEER's (Publishing and the Ecology of European Research) investigation of the effects of the large-scale, systematic depositing of authors’ final peer reviewed accepted manuscripts (so-called Green Open Access) with the aim of providing input for evidence-based policy-making in the area of Green Open Access. Also, two examples of Gold Open Access will be illustrated: Gold Open Access monograph publishing and the development of Gold ‘overlay journals’. This will be followed by a look at Research Data and the importance of data-driven science concentrating on three exemplars from the UK. The requirements for the storage and preservation of research data will be explored and the potential of tools offered by Ex Libris investigated to see what it required. Finally, the paper will map the findings of the paper in terms of network developments, Open Access to research publications, and the storage and re-use of research data against the findings of the opening section – the strategic needs of European research Universities. This paper will end by identifying how the technical developments outlined in the paper need to be aligned with the top-level strategic needs of European Universities in order for research libraries to support their home Universities.

2. Overview
• The bottom line
• Digitally encoded information in research
libraries
• Digital preservation challenges & opportunities
3. but, of course, scholarship is changing
• Collaborative
• Interdisciplinary
• Change in information seeking behaviour (Google
Generation)
• Culture of ‘openness’
4. The bottom line
“one thing about scholarship will never
change: scholars will demand access to
information resources to examine what others
have discovered and thought; to use and reuse
evidence and scientific conclusions; and to
publish results of their own research based on
these resources. That is why their sources
must be authentic, reliable, easy to find and
retrieve, and easy to use and reuse”
Paul N. Courant (2008) No brief candle,
http://www.clir.org/pubs/reports/pub142/pub142.pdf
5. No. 1 benefit to organisations*
“Increased use of content as a result of better
findability and availability”
*From APARSEN WP36 survey of libraries (Sep212)
6. No. 2 benefit to organisations
“Ensure the integrity of research results”
7. Types of digitally encoded information
• Scholarly discourse
• Digital cultural heritage
• Research data
• Dynamic Web content
8. Investment in digitisation
• All European cultural heritage available
online by 2025 (Neelie Kroes)
• All public domain masterpieces available
in Europeana(Digital Agenda)
• Cost= 10 billion per year over the next 10
years (Collections Trust)
9. Increasing access and availability: some examples
• Europeana Libraries
• Aggregating digitised content
from European research library
• Developing and applying best
practice standards in metadata
• Making it available via api and
• a portal designed for researchers
3,319,045 pages
598,130 books and theses
368,000 articles
848,078 images
1,200 film and video clips
34,000 mixed content objects
10. some examples…
• Europeana Newspapers
• 18 million newspapers
• OCR’d full text newspaper content from across Europe
• Content browser
11. Making the content accessible
• OCR enables full text searching
• OLR enables more targeted searching (titles and sections)
• NER enables searching by people, place,and the discover of
new relationships between entities
12. Issues
• If access is the final objective it can
only be achieved through preservation
of the work
• 22% of cultural heritage institutes have
long term DP strategy in place
• Need for a strong business case and
PPP
• Shared infrastructure needed
• No final solution – R&D, turn strategies
into action, work with private sector
(obsolescense)

13. Research data
• Changing the role of libraries
- demand for data management
support
-data curation
- trusted infrastructure for
collaboration and data sharing
14. No preservation strategies!*

16. Realising the value of digitally encoded information
• Trust
-in the content
-in the infrastructure
• Infrastructure
-access
-reuse
-deposit
• Sustainability
-roles
-mandates to preserve
-partnership
