1) Open access provides opportunities for developing regions to increase the visibility of local knowledge by making publications available online without cost barriers.
2) However, barriers to open access adoption in developing regions include lack of access to technology, emphasis on commercial publisher impact factors for research evaluation, and need for local open access infrastructure and policies.
3) Recommendations include defining knowledge as an open access commons shared by all, supporting open access through research funding policies, and reviewing research evaluation practices to increase inclusion of knowledge from developing regions.

Hopes, dreams and reality: crowdsourcing and the democratisation of knowledge...Mia
Crowdsourcing projects have generated millions of data points through volunteer contributions of classifications, tags and other information about cultural heritage and scientific collections. However, to what extent have crowdsourcing and citizen science projects democratised knowledge about the past within 'official' collections and knowledge management systems? And how would infrastructures and policies in cultural heritage organisations need to change to allow deeper integration with knowledge captured through citizen science projects?
Infrastructural Tensions: Infrastructure, Implementation, Policies

Linked Data for Development - Victor de Boer & Christophe Guéretopenforchange
Victor and Christophe introduce Linked Data for Development and highlight some examples. They explore possibilities to make linked data available in rural developing regions, through a voice/local radio interface and other low-infrastructure solutions.
The SDGs represent challenges in advancing the broad access to information agenda because of the divergent goals and proliferating targets and indicators. At the same time, the broadness of many of the goals presents opportunities for the agenda, particularly in the form of open access and open science, to embed itself at the core, thus allowing concrete actions and policies to be formulated in order to achieve tangible development outcomes. I will focus in particular on Goal 9 (“Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation”) and argue that information and knowledge are essential infrastructure needed to build local research capacity which are in turn the foundation for sustainable development. The growing understanding of the importance of sharing methods and results throughout the research life cycle further demands the need for appropriate infrastructure. Examples of such infrastructure, such as data and publication repositories, already exist at some local level, but they are often fragmented and lack adequate resources. It is therefore important for FAO/IFLA/COAR to continue to advocate for the development of knowledge infrastructure and to ensure that policies are in place to support their long term sustainability.
Integrating principles of social innovation and knowledge ManagementRichard Vines
This presentation and discussion delivered by Richard Vines and Dan Cotton was one of the many presentations made at the National eXtension conference in 2014 in Sacramento California. It draws on the collaborations that have been emerging between Victoria's Department of Environment and Primary Industries, the Australian Grains Research and Development Corporation and the US eXtension Foundation. These collaborations involve the piloting of two learning networks in the Australian Grains Industry drawing upon the lessons learned from the eight years of operation of eXtension across the US Land Grant network of Universities. The discussion that followed brought to to the surface some of the underlying challenges that Australia might face as it investigates the relevance of the US eXtension model and how it might apply in an Australian context. It also raises an emergent hypothesis about whether there really is an appetite to investigate possibilities, principles and policies for multi-national science based collaborations.
Kevin Feenan, President of Rockcliffe University Consortium, discusses the Rockcliffe Library Network, what is it, and where it is going. Topics cover the Rockcliffe Library mandate, resources, opportunities, and how it ties into other Rockcliffe services.
Librarian building blocks; or, how to make the ideal librarianDom Bortruex
"Librarian building blocks" will explore recent changes and needs in librarianship, introduce strategies for learning new skills, and inspire participants to implement these skills. This presentation is for a general audience and will cover skills for all libraries. To build the ideal librarian, we determined what skills and knowledge a contemporary librarian needs to succeed. Since job postings and MLIS curriculum reflect current, popular trends in librarianship, we developed a data harvesting Python script that gathered the data for more than 600 librarian job postings and MLIS curriculum content. Based on this data, we will present which skills are being taught and which skills need to be taught. The presentation will explore what these changes in technology and librarianship mean for current librarians and how they can stay up to date in the continuously evolving field of librarianship.
Cultural heritage organizations are collaborating with community partners to tell history in innovative and interactive ways.
How do we design workflows to capture community content, how can we share content “sustainably”, and why does it matter? This session will focus on best practices for gathering community contributions whether you’re collaborating in a physical space or virtually. We’ll share some “lessons learned” on working with cultural heritage data.

What is Open Science and what role does it play in Development?Leslie Chan
What is Open Science and what role does it play in Development?
The talk begins with a review of current understanding of open science and its alleged role in providing new opportunities for addressing long-standing development challenges. I then introduce the newly launched Open and Collaborative Science in Development Network, funded by IDRC Canada, and in collaboration with iHub Nairobi, Kenya. The rationale, funding modalities, and the short and long term objectives of the network will be discussed.
ELPUB 2018 Feminist Open Science workshopLeslie Chan
This was the slides for the workshop on Feminist Open Science presented at ELPUB2018 in Toronto. Notes for the session is available here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zr51nZ4VRjVNLixeRc_4SPa-liSALADLTbJ1RUJYcpo/edit
"This workshop will centre on how current discourse around Open Science has tended to focus on the creation of new technological platforms and tools to facilitate sharing and reuse of a wide range of research outputs, but has largely avoided tackling many important issues related to inclusion of a diversity of perspectives in science. We believe a feminist perspective can help to surface these issues, particularly with regard to the need for inclusive infrastructure, which are especially important as Open Science increasingly becomes part of government agendas and policies. We expect that researchers, practitioners and policy makers interested in Open Science will benefit from this workshop to think about issues of inclusivity in Open Science that are not receiving sufficient attention. We expect participants who attend this workshop will gain awareness about relevant resources and work that has been done by feminist technoscience scholars to expand the perspectives of Open Science. We hope that participants will take away new possibilities for their work that they may not have considered before. For policy makers, this workshop will be particularly relevant to help think about how evidence for Open Science should be assessed from a more feminist inclusive standpoint. The workshop will also present results from a two-day workshop on Feminist Open Science that will take place prior to the ELPUB workshop, with the intent of soliciting feedback and collaboration."

digital, online, free of charge,
and free of most copyright and
licensing restrictions

3. contents
• From where do we speak: our region + our
experience
• Opportunties of OA: voices from developing
regions
• Challenges of OA for developing regions
• Recommendations
4. from where do we speak
Latin America and the Caribbean
• largest gap between rich and poor
• pressing social issues require research
• research: 2/3 government-funded + int.coop.
• knowledge in local language, in local
publications lack visibility
• absence of commercial academic publishers
• impressive growth of OA, ex.: 70% soc.sc.
• OA regional initiatives
5. from where do we speak
CLACSO – Latin America Social Science Council
– 313 social science institutions in 21
countries
– 15 years of open access advocacy
– OA digital repository since 1998: 30.000
texts, average 850.000 monthly downloads
– Reporting LAC OA progress in UNESCO-

6. Voices from developing regions
“identifying the types of knowledge they
possess, boosting their value”
1st pillar “Towards knowledge societies” UNESCO, 2005
Local and regional knowledge in gold open access:
OA peer-review journals (Brazil 2° after USA in DOAJ)
Regional multidisciplinary OA peer-review journal portals,
ex. AJOL (450), SciELO (1.014), Redalyc (808)
Country JOL´s (INASP), SEER (Brazil)
OJS-PKP journal collections (nearly 50 % in developing
countries)
7. Voices from developing regions (cont.)
Local and regional knowledge in green open
access:
Digital + institutional repositories
contents: thesis, journal articles, books,
multimedia, research reports, conference papers.
more recently: learning objects, datasets
OpenDOAR: 2.263 (23% from developing regions)
UN subject digital repositories, ex.: AGRIS,
LABORDOC, WHO
8. Voices from developing regions (cont.)
Knowledge sharing + conversations
in social networks
9. barriers for OA adoption
• access (technology,language,preparation)
• Research evaluation based on impact factor IF
• Need of OA regional indicators
• Proposals of “author pays” open access business
models
• Need local contents in OA digital repositories /
OA mandates / OA legislation
• value other voices outside academia
10. “Clearly, the structure of scientific power is affected
by Open Access, and, as result, that structure
should be kept in mind while framing strategies
aimed at fostering Open Access. It is difficult to
imagine, except rhetorically, how advocating for
Open Access can be divorced from working for a
different structuring of power in science”

11. Recommendations: Knowledge as a shared
resource, as a commons
Charlotte Hess and Elinor Ostrom.
Understanding knowledge as a commons, MIT, 2006
• discuss how to define, protect, and build the knowledge
commons in the digital age, sharing responsibilities and
costs.
• Avoid new enclosures
• Participatory approach (ex. La Referencia, Scielo, JOL, UN inf.
systems)
Raising awareness of the wealth of available knowledge requires a
mobilization of all players in society.
UNESCO World Report “Towards knowledge societies” (2005)
12. Recommendations: dissemination of results is
part of the research cost
“better integration of knowledge policies……..… need for open
access policies…. “
UNESCO´s first World Report 2005 “Towards knowledge
societies”
• Prevent new enclosure to government funded research
results: OA free for authors-free for users
• Institutional repositories+harvesters: no charge for authors
• Commercial editors and open access entrepreneurs can
contribute with value-added services and charge for those
additional services, ex. mega journals, epi journals….
13. Recommendations: review research evaluation
procedures
"Until the emphasis on publication in established high impact
subscription journals and on metrics as a measure of quality is
altered, open access will face ongoing challenges”
Tim Berners-Lee, WWW creator
• Support for OA advocacy and debates at high level
• Altmetrics and indicators from OA portals in developing
regions
• Alternative peer-review processes
• Institutional repositories: metadata describing evaluation
procedures of digital objects
14. Recommendations: support South-South OA
cooperation
• Research on OA needs and priorities (ex. WSIS,
EIFL, INASP, IDRC…)
• Development of OA indicators + analysis
(ex.Redalyc)
• OA policies, mandates: sponsor debate at
ministerial regional meetings
• Translate UNESCO OA Guidelines and GOAP
• Interoperability of OA repositories (ex.Scielo)
• OA linked to e-learning, OER, e-science
