Presented at DLF Forum 2015 on October 27th, 2015.
As venues for discourse and creation, social media platforms such as Twitter and Instagram are important source material for scholarly research. Future access to social media data will allow researchers to develop historical assessments based on materials representing the voices of a large and diverse set of participants. Much of this critical and ephemeral content may be lost if cultural heritage institutions are not collecting and preserving it, yet creating and managing these collections presents challenges around collecting mechanisms, curation, legal and ethical issues, and preservation.
This workshop will include the following components:
• A review of technical tools for collecting and guidelines for selecting an approach that works best for your institution and users
• A guided discussion of ethical and legal considerations in taking on this work and parallels with established archival practices
• A review of some existing use cases of libraries' social media data collecting followed by a group discussion of possible community-specific use cases and needs for supporting services.
• A demonstration of possible archival collecting workflows using NCSU Libraries' Social Media Combine collecting system (which includes NCSU Libraries' lentil system for Instagram harvesting and George Washington University's Social Feed Manager for Twitter harvesting). Participants who wish to follow along with their own instance may install it ahead of time.
Participants will leave with an awareness of the major components of a new social media collecting program, including available tools, research use cases, ethical and legal considerations, supporting resources, as well as a better understanding of how to integrate social media into existing practices and workflows. There will be opportunities to share collecting ideas with each other at the end of the workshop.

Communicating Library Impact Beyond Library Walls: A Collaborative EffortLynn Connaway
Connaway, Lynn Silipigni. 2017. “Communicating Library Impact Beyond Library Walls: A Collaborative Effort.” Presented at the IFLA World Library and Information Congress 2017, Wrocław, Poland, August 23.
According to the Open Education Consortium, “sharing is probably the most basic characteristic of education: education is sharing knowledge, insights, and information with others, upon which new knowledge, skills, ideas, and understanding can be built." Whether they are purchased or freely acquired, librarians should be open to sharing their resources to everyone who wants to use them to enrich their lives through education. Open Education Resources (OER) include resources or tools that can be used and modified for free and without any legal or technical barriers, and when used properly can help foster a transparent culture of learning and engagement in our communities. In this webinar:
• Learn what Open Education Resources (OER) are and how they can be used to engender trust, generate rigorous learning opportunities, and potentially lead to smarter decision-making strategies.
• Discover a variety of OER and Open Access (OA) repositories to find accessible and authoritative resources, including textbooks, to use in curriculum.
• Acquire OER strategies for developing a variety of educational opportunities using a variety of formats.
•Understand various issues (e.g., GDPR) impacting OER in libraries.

OA in the Library Collection: The Challenge of Identifying and Managing Open ...NASIG
Librarians, researchers, and the general public have largely embraced the concept of open access (OA). Yet, incorporating OA resources into existing discovery and tracking systems is often a complicated process. Open access material can be delivered through a variety of publishing or archival mechanisms, creating certain challenges, particularly for those managing e-resources. Although an increasing proportion of research output is becoming open access each year, organization and discovery of these resources remains imperfect.
The debate between the relative merits of Green and Gold OA is regularly discussed in academic circles but less attention is devoted towards Hybrid OA and the challenges inherent in this model. Most major publishers offer open access through one or more of these models, but open access metadata standards seem to be lacking among these content providers. The presenters will discuss some of these challenges identified in the literature and through other mechanisms, including data gathered by NISO and an original survey. By identifying these issues, the scholarly communication community can work together to improve discovery for end users.

For many libraries, an institutional repository is an online archive to collect, preserve, and make accessible the intellectual output of an institution. For a growing bloc, the goal is to go further, beyond knowledge preservation to knowledge creation. These libraries are using their repositories to provide faculty with a proven publishing option by facilitating the production and distribution of original content often too niche for traditional publishers.
How do metadata librarians sift the incoming metadata with these different goals in mind? How do they optimize content for discovery in a wide range of resources such as online catalogs, external research databases, and major search engines? For a library that is also providing publishing services, what additional steps are necessary?
As the provider of Digital Commons, a repository and publishing platform for over 350 institutions, bepress has first-hand experience with these topics, and our consultants advise regularly on best practices for collecting, publishing, distributing, and archiving content. This presentation is intended for library professionals, whether their goal is to collect previously published works or to go further into library-led publishing. After an overview of common sources and destinations for metadata, attendees will come away with a set of considerations for streamlining workflows and optimizing content for discovery and distribution in major venues.
Eli Windchy is the VP, Consulting Services at bepress which provides software and services to the scholarly community. She received a Master's in Archaeology from University of Virginia, taught organic gardening, and for the last ten years has also been getting dirty with the metadata of Digital Commons repositories. She co-directs courses in institutional repository management and publishing, and she enjoys addressing the challenges of interoperability and scholarly communication.

Challenges and Opportunities in Customizing Library Repository User InterfacesRachel Vacek
This presentation will dive into the ongoing challenges that academic libraries often face when improving the user experiences of out-of-the-box and open source repositories. Fueling the challenges are the ambiguity and fast-changing nature within the field of digital scholarship and the constant flux of technology platforms and tools. Fortunately, many libraries are paying more attention to users’ motivations and responding by designing user interfaces that support particular formats and contexts. We’ll explore emerging opportunities with repositories in looking at how far libraries should go in providing customizations to balance stakeholder and user needs, and how to plan for users’ ever-shifting expectations.

An overview of Wikipedia and its potential for libraries, also covering cataloguing issues. Part of the Cataloguing and Indexing Group in Scotland (CIGS) seminar "Toto, I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore": metadata issues and Web2.0 services.
What does success look like when it comes to library discoverability? Index based discovery systems have seen a dramatic rate of adoption since introduction to the research ecosystem in 2009, with more than 9,000 libraries relying on a discovery system to provide users with a comprehensive index to their offerings. Some issues bar the way to providing this comprehensive view, but many challenges have been overcome through collaboration between libraries, content providers and discovery partners. The NISO ODI initiative began to examine these issues in 2011, and released a best practice in June 2014.
Speakers will highlight examples of successful collaboration, note continued areas of challenge, and provide insight on how the Open Discovery Initiative Conformance Checklists can be used as a mechanism to evaluate content provider or discovery provider conformance with the best practice.

Open Access Week and Beyond (OLA Super Conference)Robyn Hall
Poster presented at the Ontario Library Association Super Conference in Toronto on February 26, 2010.
Abstract: Academic librarians’ support of open access publishing initiatives has enhanced library collections, research innovation and the visibility of institutions’ output. Many have paid less attention, however, to educating university students about open access resources. Drawing on exemplary promotional efforts, this poster describes ways that Canadian academic librarians might ensure students know about open access resources and understand their potential uses and limitations, from actively participating in Open Access Week to integrating open access topics into instruction sessions and beyond. During the poster session, information about recent developments in the open access movement in Canada will also be made available.
Talk on "Dissecting Wikipedia" given at CRASSH, Cambridge, on 6th March 2013.
Abstract:
Andrew Gray, the British Library's Wikipedian in Residence, has been working on an AHRC-supported program to help more academics and researchers engage with Wikipedia. In this talk, he will give a brief history of the Wikipedia project, looking at its origins and the way it has developed over time. The talk will also cover the growing amount of research done around Wikipedia itself. Well over 2,000 peer-reviewed papers have been published which looked at Wikipedia in some way - looking at the project's content and community, or using this data as a way to study broader questions of collaboration and interaction.
Presented at Industry Symposium, IFLA, 14 August 2008. Describes a new environment of global information services using metadata, taxonomies, and knowledge organization. Makes the case that these changes will permanently affect what it means "to catalog" materials for the purpose of connecting citizens, students and scholars to the information they need, when and where they need it.
Contributing to the global commons: Repositories and WikimediaNick Sheppard
There is huge potential for universities and their libraries to leverage Wikimedia in order to expose research outputs and collections. Wikimedia comprises sixteen projects in total, including Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata. At the University of Leeds, the Research Data Management Service have successfully run a project that focuses on linking research data with the Wikimedia suite of tools via a series of ‘editathons’, in order to increase the visibility of research data and enable reuse on Wikipedia and elsewhere. The project - "Manage it locally to share it globally: RDM and Wikimedia Commons" - was the winning submission to a competition launched in May 2018 and sponsored by SPARC Europe, Jisc and the University of Cambridge, called the "Data Management Engagement Award", which aimed to address cultural challenges involved in promoting effective research data practices.
The project has served as a springboard to further explore Wikimedia strategically, both at the University of Leeds and across the White Rose Consortium. For example we are collaborating on a new project looking at Wikipedia citations of research from York, Sheffield and Leeds, and the proportion of these that are open access. The long term goal might be to establish a "Wikimedian in Residence" across the consortium. In this talk, we will present the project's outputs - including a toolkit that will enable other institutions to apply the same methodology. In addition we will explore the potential of Wikidata to link up repositories and other data silos in a manner that enables reuse and increases impact.

This is the story of how we built a game to learn how to edit Wikipedia in under an hour with the attitude that if it's not fun people won't play it and if it doesn't leverage intrinsic motivations it won't work.
We explore four strategies to create a welcoming, supportive tone on Wikipedia: invitation, acknowledgement, showing people, and playful design. Examples from projects including Wikipedia's Teahouse, WikiWomen's Collaborative, The Wikipedia Adventure and The Grants:IdeaLab. Questions included for debate and discussion.

37. 1. Research Study
30 participants, 20-30 min Qualtrix survey
Answer a set of questions about your
understanding of evaluating and using academic
and non-academic sources
Read a pre-selected Wikipedia article and give
feedback on its authoritativeness, intent and
quality by using a provided brief rubric; list your
alternatives if the Wikipedia article does not
supply sufficient information
38. Good News: 87% responded correctly to
the pre-test
In the responses, the important
considerations when selecting sources for
papers (in order):
1. Ease of access (whether I can open it up
immediately)
2. Relevancy and authority of the source
The length and nature of the bibliography of the
source was considered “Not Important”
39. “In general, when you read articles on Wikipedia, are you
likely to follow the links in the References or Notes
section at the end of the article to find additional
information?”

40. After reading a Wikipedia page, students were
most likely to do the following (in order):
1. Search Google for more information
2. Search Wikipedia for another related article
3. Go to the library’s webpage and use the
databases
4. Use the Reference section of Wikipedia to find
more information on their topic
5. Search the library’s catalog for books
41. 2. Role of Wikipedia Editors and Library Subject Specialists
Identify Wikipedia content gaps in the specific subject areas
(e.g., Cultures, Diversity, and Inequality – local and global) that
are relevant to the curriculum
Women in Jazz, Newark Jazz history, Asian immigrant
experience in New Jersey, Cultural competence in health care
Write/Co-write new article(s) or edit existing content in above
topics to enrich the depth and authoritative of Wikipedia content
and provide reliable Rutgers University Libraries licensed
resources and Rutgers University digital content to close the
identified gaps
Wikipedia editors engage with Rutgers librarians and provide
training and guidance in the culture for Wikipedia editing to
enable them to be effective Wikipedia editors
42. 3. Next Steps
In-depth analysis of research data
Study of faculty’s use of Wikipedia
Curriculum scan
Determine the value and utility of Wikipedia for
teaching research skills and supporting the
Rutgers curriculum
Design uses for Wikipedia in the Rutgers
University Libraries services (librarians can train
editors, work with faculty, and students, promoting
and facilitating among library colleagues, etc.)
49. Trusted Sources for Search Engines
• Wikipedia/DBpedia
• No Wikipedia presence?
– You don’t exist to search engines
• Influences to Google’s Knowledge Graph
– Google Places/Google My Business
– Google+
– FreeBase
59. Extend the logic
• What other concepts are poorly defined?
– “Library?”
– “Institutional Repository”
• Search “NBA teams” vs. “institutional
repositories”
63. What’s a librarian to do?
• Linked data as expression of network of
concepts
– things vs. strings
• Establish a semantic identity
64. How?
• Define libraries and library concepts in
Wikipedia
– Beware of *pedia culture and process
• Engage with other trusted data sources
– Google Places/Google My Business
– Google+
– FreeBase
• Mark-up metadata with schema.org

72. The OCLC KB API
• OCLC KB is designed as a cooperative KB, accepting
input and edits from participants.
• “Automating the content supply chain,” by getting
publishers to contribute content collections and
holdings information, making it easy for the library to
see its full holdings.
• API will put libraries in front of users at point of need
on third-party sites, like EasyBib and Wikipedia.
73.
74. Wikipedia Pilot
• A user, logged into Wikipedia, can download a script
enabled with the OCLC KB API.
• User will be associated with an affiliated library, via
IP address or Institution Code.
• Articles, available full-text, can be viewed while the
user is on Wikipedia.
• If a library’s KB is not registered with OCLC, the API
will attempt to locate the library’s URL resolver or
open access full-text.

77. Register your library’s e-collection
• Use OCLC’s WorldShare management interface to
access your WorldCat knowledge base and register
your collection manually by identifying all the
collections to which your library subscribes.
• Sign up for the PubGet service—your credentials are
shared with OCLC which is authorized to harvest your
holdings from content providers. Details of the
PubGet service are here:
http://www.oclc.org/knowledge-base/start.en.html
78. Transfer your KB to OCLC:
• Working with OCLC’s implementation staff,
output your library’s knowledge base file from
your local resolver, and OCLC will ingest it into
the WCKB. (SerialsSolutions, SFX, and EBSCO
all allow sharing of their KBs.) Documentation
for individual link resolvers is available on the
WCKB documentation page:
• http://www.oclc.org/support/services/knowle
dge-base/documentation.en.html
79. Automatic updates to the KB:
OCLC has agreements with EBL and ebrary, where
they will automatically send holdings information to
OCLC as libraries buy their content, as authorized by
the library. Libraries need to contact EBL and ebrary
to indicate that they wish their holdings to be sent
OCLC.
Libraries subscribing to ScienceDirect from Elsevier
can request that their holdings information be
shared with OCLC directly.
80. Most important of all:
To begin this process a library must first request
activation of your KB, please click here to fill out
a request form:
http://www.oclc.org/content/forms/worldwide/
en/wckb-request.html
81. Partners with KB API linking

• Bibme.org
• CitationMachine.net
• Sciencescape.com
• Citavi.com
• Wikipedia.org
talk about why Wikipedia is important to libraries (highly ranked, ideologically aligned)
Whenever I talked to someone who was invovled with Wikipedia, it turned out that disambiguation, for names in particular, is really important. Just as it is for libraries. There was is a growing recognition of the importance of library name authorities, and some Wikipedia articles have started incorporating authority control into articles. Not surprisingly, the German language Wikipedia had already started to add in authority control, and xxx articles has name authority data. But the English language Wikipedia has only 4k articles with authority data (on perhaps 1m articles about people – kind of difficult to tell).
Further challenges – library resources are pretty invisible, even to the earnest community of Wikipedia editors. Despite preference for free sources of information, it’s easy to link to free sites.
Worldcat comes in at #81 on this list, Hathi Trust not even in top 100.
But there are challenges for working with such a dispersed, heterogeneous (in terms of interests) and virtual communities

In 2001 Jimmy Wales had a radical idea. A bold, awesome, inspiring radical idea. Imagine a world in which every person on the planet shares in the sum of all human knowledge. Most radical, is that it’s happening.
30 million articles in 286 languages cobbled together by 2 billion edits that are viewed 8000 times per second by 500 million unique visitors per month. The sixth most visited website on the internet is 2000 times larger than Encyclopedia Britannica’s deluxe edition. Wikipedia’s co-founder, Larry Sanger, thought that Wikipedia should be written and reviewed by credentialed experts. So he went off and started his own Wiki called Citizendium. After 12 years, it has 5000 articles. Crowdsourcing works.
Who writes Wikipedia? 20 million registered users, 80,000 of whom are active each month, with 1400 administrators to do cleanup. These are dedicated, passionate volunteers who work for free, with no central control.
Wikipedia is run by a donor-funded nonprofit called the Wikimedia Foundation. We give Wikipedia to the world and we’ll never put ads on it, because Jimmy Wales wanted it to be “a temple for the mind”.
Wikipedia is founded on core ideas that have guided its growth and evolution. Neutrality in summarizing points of view, Verifiability in citing reliable sources, Consensus as a model for handling legitimate disputes, Civility as an ethic in our interactions, and Openness for the content to be used or reused by anyone.
How does this collaborative chaos lead to something you rely on every day? It works because so many people are looking, and more of them are good than bad. Linus’ Law states that Many Eyeballs Make All Bugs Shallow, and Wikipedia’s millions of eyeballs (some of them machine learning bots) create a virtual filter, a gauntlet of post publication peer review. We’re not perfect of course, but we are getting better all the time, one edit at a time.
