Network Venues & Scholarly Monographs: Pioneering Initiatives in Publishing e-Scholarship Abstract Scholarly publishers are increasingly incorporating Web sites into facets of the enterprise. Often, such sites primarily serve basic promotional and purchasing functions, but occasionally sites of both publishers and authors reflect other functionalities: search facilities, availability of published text, referral to instructional and research materials, hyperlinks to external sources, opportunity for reader-author exchange. This presentation provides a panoramic overview of Web sites recently prepared by publishers and/or authors that complement traditionally published scholarly monograph. This overview is intended to stimulate discussion of suitable Web functionalities that might be incorporated into monograph publications being prepared by scholars affiliated to the Virtual Knowledge Studio.

Tenure and Promotion in the Age of Online Social Media
Online social media tools are fast becoming an important and integral part of the academic life. However, there is very little hard data on why and how scholars are using them. This paper presents the results of our ongoing study on how academics are using these new tools for communication and information dissemination. We specifically look at how scholars themselves view the role that online social media might play in the tenure and promotion process at academic and research institutions. The results of our study find that the use of online social media is currently not widely recognized by most research institutions as part of their tenure and promotion review process. However, according to our interview data, this will likely change in the future as more and more scholars turn to these new tools to aid them in their professional endeavors. The trending changes found in this study are important not only for the future of scholarly knowledge and information dissemination, but also for the changes it will bring to universities’ tenure and promotion policies and to publishers of scholarly work.

The document discusses the concepts of Library 2.0 and how libraries are adopting Web 2.0 technologies and principles to become more user-centered. It provides examples of libraries that have experimented with new services and features on their websites, such as allowing user ratings and comments, integrating with social networking sites, and providing new ways for users to search and browse the catalog. The examples show libraries embracing change, taking risks with new technologies, and meeting users in online spaces to remain relevant in the digital age.

The document discusses several recent developments related to open access and e-books:
1) The World Bank approved a new open access policy for its research outputs allowing public distribution and reuse of its work.
2) A Pew Research Center report examined how the rise of e-books is affecting libraries and their patrons. Librarians believe e-books have been good for libraries and reading in general.
3) Brazil will allow prisoners to have sentences reduced by reading books and writing essays on them.
The document then discusses how the book is being transformed from a simple digital copy to a new networked object, and how this impacts concepts like openness, libraries, readers and knowledge.

Web 2.0 and You Too
This document summarizes a presentation about Web 2.0 and Library 2.0. It discusses how Web 2.0 technologies allow for faster and more interactive experiences with user-generated content. Library 2.0 aims to actively involve users and deliver services directly to them without walls. Examples are given of libraries experimenting with new technologies like blogs, wikis, games and virtual worlds to engage users in new ways.
Crowdsourcing
Crowdsourcing for Libraries in 3 sentences:
Crowdsourcing originated in the 19th century with projects like the Smithsonian Institution's meteorological project in 1848. Libraries can benefit from crowdsourcing by accomplishing tasks more efficiently than paid staff, engaging communities, and making collections more discoverable. Examples of library crowdsourcing include tagging images on Flickr, transcribing text, and identifying materials to enhance metadata.

The document discusses how libraries are adopting various Web 2.0 technologies like blogs, wikis, social bookmarking, and open source software to become more user-centered and engage patrons. It provides examples of each technology and how libraries are using them to disseminate information, collaborate, and interact with users in new ways that align with users' needs and behaviors online.
Using New Technology to Market Library Services
The document discusses using new technologies like web applications and open source software to better market library services. It defines terms like Web 2.0, open source, and provides examples of free web applications like WordPress, Google Docs and Facebook that libraries can use. It also discusses open source desktop applications and library specific applications such as Koha and Evergreen ILS, Blacklight and VuFind next generation catalogs, and the Research Toolbar. The document encourages librarians to keep learning about new technologies through newsletters, wikis and other resources.
Talking about Open Access: SMASH and Subtler Tactics
This document discusses strategies for promoting open access, including forcefully advocating the benefits of open access ("SMASH") or using more subtle tactics. It notes common objections to open access and recommends tailoring the message based on the audience. Open access benefits readers, students, authors, libraries, institutions, and fields of study by increasing access and impact. The document also outlines the progression of open access initiatives at CUNY from 2005 to the present.
Small Worlds Social Graphs Social Media
The document discusses what a small-world network is and provides context around the term. It references a 1967 psychology today article by Suresh Sood and Michael Light that may have originally coined the term. It also mentions that in 1991, the concept was popularized by studying social networks and the phenomenon of six degrees of separation. The small-world phenomenon shows that most people are connected through short chains of acquaintances.
Scholarly Communications Brown Bag 2 9 09 A Amended
The document summarizes the role and activities of a scholarly communications officer at Binghamton University Libraries. The officer coordinates the library's scholarly communications program, educates the university community about issues like open access and copyright, and monitors developments in scholarly publishing. They represent the library in developing university policies and help transition the university to new publishing models as traditional models change. The officer also discusses trends in scholarly publishing like open access models and repositories, and predicts further growth in these areas and tighter budgets pushing changes faster.
Principles and practice of Open Science
This document summarizes a presentation given by Peter Murray-Rust on open science. Some key points from the presentation include:
- Open science and open data are essential for young researchers and students to have the freedom to conduct research and change the world.
- Content mining scientific literature is important but publishers are attempting to control open data and restrict access, which hampers research progress.
- Past student movements have fought for openness and freedom in research, and new approaches may be needed now to change laws and policies to allow content mining while making all research outputs openly available.
Skills in Sight: How Social Media Affordances Increase Network Awareness
This document summarizes a study on how social media affordances can increase network awareness. The study found that social media platforms and tools provide affordances that increase employees' awareness of others' skills and expertise in the network. Preliminary results showed that social media allows people to widen their networks, learn from others, and more easily access resources and people. Social media was found to enhance knowledge sharing and provide benefits like speed of access to expertise across wide geographical boundaries.
Interoperability and Its Role In Standardization, Plus A ResourceSync Overview
This document summarizes Peter Murray's presentation on interoperability and its role in standardization. The presentation covered four levels of interoperability: technical, syntactic, semantic, and organizational. It also discussed the ResourceSync specification, which provides a framework for synchronizing web resources between a source and destination using sitemaps. The specification builds on existing sitemap standards and is currently in beta with the goal of finalizing version 1.0 in fall 2013. Implementation tools are being developed and public feedback is being solicited to improve the specification.
Free and Open Libraries
The document discusses the benefits of open source libraries. It argues that libraries and open source software share common ideals around freely accessible information. Open source allows libraries more freedom and flexibility compared to proprietary software. The document encourages libraries to educate about, participate in, and try open source software to gain more control over their systems and avoid issues with company mergers or lack of support.

Must Libraries Fully Engage with Web 2.0 Without Discernment? The Science Business Case
According some professional magazines, Scientists are leader of the Web 2.0 pack. Many online services appeared on the market for a few years and these technologies would reshape the future of research and science communication. But, at the time being, it is not obvious whether Scientists have really embraced these new services on their daily routine, as the adoption seems to be low. The question for science libraries is to know f they have to invest on wikis and other blogs. How can they choose appropriate tools among dozens of web 2.0's applications? Is it so critical to maintain a presence on social networks? Libraries strategy must consider real impact of web 2.0 in their specific environment before to engage their energy and time.

MOOCs and Crowdsourcing: Massive Courses & Massive Resources
Premised upon the observation that MOOC and Crowdsourcing phenomena share several important characteristics, including IT-mediation, large-scale human participation, and varying levels of openness to participants, this work systematizes a comparison of MOOC and Crowdsourcing phenomena along these salient dimensions. In doing so, we learn that both domains share further common traits, including similarities in IT-structures, knowledge generating capabilities, the presence of intermediary service providers, and techniques designed to attract and maintain participant activity. Stemming directly from this analysis, we discuss new directions for future research in both fields and draw out actionable implications for practitioners and researchers in both domains.
The Era of Open
The document discusses the potential for open science and data to disrupt traditional academic institutions by deinstitutionalizing rewards and metrics for scientific research. It argues that fully embracing open practices like data sharing, collaboration and publishing in open access venues is necessary for a more transparent and reproducible scientific process, but that many academic institutions have yet to adapt their reward systems to incentivize these activities. The talk outlines steps the scientific community can take to further this transition, such as developing community resources and standards, educating peers, and recognizing the different roles that institutions need to play to support open scholarship.

- Trove is a digital library platform developed by the National Library of Australia that provides a single search interface to discover digital collections from libraries, archives, and museums.
- It has grown significantly since its launch in 2009 through contributions from over 1,100 organizations and the digitization of over 120 million items.
- Users can tag, comment on, and correct text within the collections, helping to enhance access and discoverability of content through their contributions and interactions.
CARL ABRC Survey Results april 2011
This document presents a preliminary analysis of survey results from approximately 400 Canadian academic librarians regarding their use of social media. Some key findings include: 68% of respondents have advanced knowledge of social media; common tools used include blogs, RSS feeds, and video sharing; Twitter and Second Life are used less; and most felt basic social media knowledge and understanding its role in scholarly communication were high priorities for librarians. The full report will provide additional analysis of trends in responses.
Writing effective research profiles
You work for a university, an institute, a branch of government or private industry where research takes place. It's your job to explain that research to audiences not reading peer-reviewed academic journals, whether those are industry partners, potential students, taxpayers, or government officials.
Veteran communicator Kelley Teahen offers easy-to-digest tips on how to explain what sometimes seems unexplainable in "What is it you do, and why does it matter? Writing effective research profiles."
Building and Managing Online Communities
The document discusses the development and management of the Trove online community platform in Australia. It summarizes how Trove began as the Australian Newspapers digitization project in 2007 and expanded in 2010 to become a single discovery service for libraries, archives and museums. It describes how Trove engaged users by allowing them to correct OCR text, add tags and comments, and contributed their own content like photos and videos. Over time, Trove saw increasing user contributions that helped improve and expand the collection.

Social Networks and Computer Science
The document discusses social networks and computer science. Some key points:
1. Social networks can be represented as graphs with people as vertices and relationships as edges. Quantitative analysis looks at graph properties and constructs models to explain them.
2. Computer science can help study large-scale social networks through processing power, storage, and algorithms. Areas of study include network structure, how networks change over time, and designing tools to monitor/predict changes.
3. Structural properties like degree distribution, connected components, and small world phenomena are observed in social networks. The dynamics of link formation, homophily, and positive/negative links are also examined.
E scholarship project ver1.0
This document outlines a proposal for a peer-to-peer microscholarship program called e-Scholarship Project. The program would use an online platform to connect students in need of scholarships directly with individual and institutional donors around the world. Students would share their dreams and passions through profiles including videos and photos. Donors could then encourage and fund students with small donations. The program aims to provide opportunities for students who otherwise cannot afford education by gathering scholarships through the internet. It has the potential to help many hidden talents in Bangladesh realize their futures.
Scholarship Information
The document lists several scholarship opportunities available to students in Erie County, Pennsylvania and surrounding areas. It provides details on eligibility requirements and deadlines for scholarships ranging from $500 to $25,000 for college or vocational programs. Local scholarships are also described that are specific to Girard High School seniors or residents of Girard School District.

Review of Related Literature
This document provides an overview of the research process and guidelines for reviewing related literature. It discusses the importance of reviewing related literature to avoid duplicating past studies and provide context for the research problem. The review of related literature should include recent, objective materials that are directly relevant to the study, such as findings, methods, and conclusions from past investigations. When writing the literature review, the researcher should paraphrase sources, cite authors, include only relevant information, and relate sources to the research topic. The review should have a logical flow and avoid lengthy quotes or a list-like format.
Chapter 2-Realated literature and Studies
This chapter reviews related literature and studies relevant to the present study. It discusses ideas from local and foreign sources on the importance of computer information technology and information systems. It also examines related theories like the iterative implementation approach and discusses how technologies like WAMP5, Windows 7, and web-based systems have influenced various fields and processes like enrollment. Finally, it summarizes some related local studies that have developed web-based enrollment systems to make the enrollment process more efficient.
Literature review in research
The document provides guidance on conducting a literature review. It discusses that a literature review aims to convey previous knowledge and facts established on a topic by summarizing, evaluating, and integrating primary sources. The literature review is conducted in 5 stages - annotating relevant sources, organizing sources thematically, additional reading, writing individual sections, and integrating all sections. When writing the literature review, an introduction defining the topic, a body summarizing and grouping sources thematically, and a conclusion evaluating the current state of research and identifying gaps are essential elements to include.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
