It is not new to say that the scholarly communication system is sick. One way to put it is that the publishers have built a paywall around the papers written by our faculty and make us librarians pay for it.
For years, Open Access via the green and gold route have been touted as a joint solution. To this end, as academic librarians, we focused on building institutional repositories and getting open access mandates. However, recently, many prominent members of the open access community have begun to express doubts about the viability of institutional repositories as a solution given the lack of success.
Some, like Stevan Harnad self-dubbed “Open Access Archivangelist” for Green Open access, claim to have given up, while others, like Eric Van de Velde, suggest that we rethink other ways to accomplish Green Open access beyond just institutional repositories. In this webinar, we will summarise all the arguments and attempt to give a librarian’s point of view about the future of IRs.
The British Library was one of the first national libraries to create and offer linked data in 2011 as part of its wider open data strategy. Since that point the organisation has gained considerable experience of the issues involved in the development and maintenance of a sustained linked data service.

Presentation given by Julia Barrett, Research Services Manager at University College Dublin Library, to the ANLTC Seminar: Supporting the Activities of Your Research Community - Issues and Initiatives, held on December 3, 2014 at the Royal Irish Academy, Dublin, Ireland.
This session offers the results of a study that tests the assertion that the online dissemination of theses has a positive impact on the research profile of the institution. Based on a combination of primary and secondary research, with some fascinating statistical comparative information, the study outlines the types of metrics an institution may use to measure the impact of its corpus of digitised dissertations and examines how these metrics may be generated. It is the result of a year-long study undertaken with the London School of Economics which focuses on the outcomes achieved through its programme of theses digitisation, disseminated simultaneously through its institutional repository and through the ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Database (PDTD). Results achieved by the LSE will be compared with metrics gathered globally by ProQuest via its PDTD. The session will be of interest to all librarians and academics involved in the use of digitised theses as a research resource, digitisation projects (retrospective or ongoing) and university rankings.

Tony Epstein (Sir Michael Anthony Epstein, discoverer of the Epstein-Barr virus) once said to me something I’ve never forgotten:
“Research that is not published is wasted research.”
We live today in an era of open scholarship and open data, in which the Web is the primary means of communication. For many people, information that is not freely published on the Web might as well not exist. It is thus “wasted research”.
However, within academia, we also have to live in the legacy world of subscription-access journals and subscription-access citation indexes such as Web of Science and Scopus – freely available only to members of rich scholarly institutions like Oxford University that pays hundreds of thousands of dollars annually to obtain access for their members, not to the rest of the world including scholars in developing nations.
Today I will briefly discuss the five factors desirable for scholarly publications – the Five Stars of Online Journal Articles: peer review, open access, enriched content, available datasets and machine-readable metadata [1].
I will then discuss how bibliographic citations, which permit an author to give credit to another person's endeavours and integrate our independent acts of scholarship into a global knowledge network, are being freed from commercial restrictions by publication in the OpenCitations Corpus (http://opencitations.net), an open repository of scholarly citation data that others may build upon, enhance and reuse for any purpose [2, 3].

Opening Keynote: From where we are to where we want to be: The future of resource discovery from a UK perspective
Neil Grindley, Head of Resource Discovery, Jisc
The University of Hertfordshire (UH) implemented a new
commercial Resource Discovery Service at the same time as it
changed to the Koha Open Source Library Management System. In doing so it moved away from using Google Scholar, as its main platform, at a time when many universities are deciding to only use Google Scholar. Hear about the debate between commercial and non-commercial services and why UH made the decisions it did. After 18 months was it the right decision? What has been the impact on library services and library users?

Stop Press: Libraries' Role in the Future of PublishingDanny Kingsley
This was presented to the SLA2016 conference in Philadelphia on 12 June.
ABSTRACT: Libraries are moving from curators of bought content to providing access to research or industry outputs. This activity can range from the relatively informal process of dissemination through a repository to acting as publishers - through the hosting of research journals, bibliographies and newsletters to the provision of editorial services and advice. This 90 minute Master Class will look at different models of publishing in the library environment with several examples of publishing activity in different libraries. The session will start with a strategic overview of the need for libraries to actively engage in the dissemination of information created by their organisations. The discussion will cover the staffing implications including how to recruit and train for the required skills sets. Attendees will work through some of the issues that need to be considered if a library is interested in publishing, including some of the legal implications and the different software and technical platforms available. Ideas will be workshopped about ways to engage the institutional community and encourage uptake of services on offer. The class aims to provide practical information to allow attendees to make decisions about what services are achievable to offer their clients, both from a technical and a staffing perspective. Attendees who are currently publishing are actively encouraged to participate in the discussion.

JSTOR has launched a new Labs team charged with partnering with libraries and scholars to build innovative tools for research and teaching. The JSTOR Labs team has successfully used ‘flash builds’ – high-intensity, short-burst, user-driven development efforts – in order to bring an idea from conception to a working, user-delighting prototype in as little as a week. In this talk the presenter will describe the approach to flash builds, highlight the partnerships, skills, tools and content that help to innovate, and suggest ways that libraries can adopt these methods to support innovation and the digital humanities.

Integrating research indicators for use in the repositories infrastructure petrknoth
The current repository infrastructure, which consists of thousands of repositories, does not make effective use of research indicators largely exploited by commercial players in the area. Research indicators, including citation counts and Mendeley reader counts, enable the development and improvement of functionality researchers use on a daily basis. For example, they make it possible to increase the performance in information retrieval and recommendation tasks and serve as an enabler for the development of research analytics & metrics functionality, such as the analysis of research trends or collaboration networks. We believe that there is a strong case for making a better use of these indicators within the repositories infrastructure to improve the functionality of services users rely on.

One of the key aims of the COAR NGR group is to help us to overcome the challenges that still make it difficult to move beyond repositories as document silos. The group wants to see a globally interoperable network of repositories and global services built on top of repositories fulfilling the expectations of users in the 21st century. During this talk, I will address two use cases the COAR NGR working group aims to enable: text and data mining and recommender systems.
Data Publishing Models by Sünje Dallmeier-Tiessendatascienceiqss
Data Publishing is becoming an integral part of scholarly communication today. Thus, it is indispensable to understand how data publishing works across disciplines. Are there best practices others can learn from or even data publishing standards? How do they impact interoperability in the Open Science landscape? The presentation will look at a range of examples, and the main building blocks of data publishing today. The work has been conducted as part of the RDA Data Publishing Workflows group.

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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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”.
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.
