SUMMARY:UKSG Usage Data for Decision Making online seminar 2021
DESCRIPTION:This seminar is aimed at those responsible for collecting\, analysing and making recommendations based on usage data\, whether in a library setting or within a publishing organisation. This online seminar will take place over one day Tuesday 19th October\, for more details please visit the programme section below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, October 19\, 2021 – 10:00 BSTtoTuesday\, October 19\, 2021 – 17:00 BST \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhere\n\n\n\n\nOnlineUnited Kingdom \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Event\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration closed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Summary \n\n\n\n\n\nThose with a responsibility for overseeing the management of library collections have more access than ever to statistical data to assist with evaluation and to justify return on investment\, and enhancement of the user experience. Understanding the library’s use of this data is also vital for publishers.   Advances in standardisation led by the COUNTER initiative have made statistics more accessible and reliable as a basis for decision making. \n\n\n\nIncreasingly\, libraries are being asked to make extremely difficult decisions about the priorities for their spending within a strategic context.  Although this presents huge challenges\, it can also be an impetus to change the ways in which services are provided. Publishers need to be aware of what statistics librarians are looking at and how they are being used to inform collection development. \n\n\n\nThis seminar provides illustrations by expert decision makers on how statistics are used to make strategic decisions.  It will also present the challenges\, such as demonstrating value and presenting data to different audiences.  Future developments within the field will also be addressed\, together with considerations of how these will impact on decision making in the future\, for example new approaches to analytics.  There will be discussion on how the development of open access is impacting on usage behaviour and influencing considerations for collection development. \n\n\n\nDelegates will have the opportunity to reflect on the role of statistics in the broader context of further and higher education\, and the culture of assessment that is becoming increasingly prominent within the sector.  There will be the chance to share experiences\, positive and negative\, of using statistics for decision making and delegates will be encouraged to actively participate throughout the day. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend? \n\n\n\n\n\nThis seminar is aimed at both those in libraries who need to analyse or interpret usage data to support decision making about resources and collections\, within a strategic context.  It will be of interest to those with a responsibility for overseeing the management and evaluation of library collections in the further and higher education sector\, and who need to demonstrate impact and value to senior leadership teams\, rather than those involved in the operational role.  It may also be of interest to those working in other areas of the scholarly information industry.  It will also be of importance to publishers who need to understand the collection development decisions of their customers. \n\n\n\nPlease note: This seminar does not cover the practical aspects of collecting usage data\, or of creating reports.  These topics are covered by the UKSG Practical Usage Statistics for Librarians seminar\, a hands-on workshop on gathering and manipulating usage statistics. \n\n\n\nBoth days will be recorded and available for playback on demand post event for registered delegates.  \n\n\n\nWe welcome participants from all corners of the globe to join our seminars\, however speakers and topics are generally UK focussed\, if you have any doubt about the suitability please don’t hesitate to contact us.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives \n\n\n\n\n\nDelegates will:  \n\n\n\n\nhave an opportunity to discuss and share experiences of gathering and manipulating usage statistics to make financial\, management and service decisions\, as well as evidencing value.\n\n\n\n\n\nlearn about ways in which library resource usage statistics have been used by staff in university libraries to inform decision-making processes\n\n\n\n\n\ndevelop an understanding of how usage statistics can be used to demonstrate value from a publisher perspective\n\n\n\n\n\ngain knowledge of the impact of open access publishing on usage statistics and demonstrating value\n\n\n\n\n\ngain a greater insight into the wider environment and context in which usage statistics decision making is carried out and new approaches to this\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPre-event checks \n\n\n\n\n\nTo test your system ahead of time visit https://support.goto.com/webinar/system-check-attendee \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you to our event sponsor \n\n\n\n\n\nACS Publications \n\n\n\nfor more information visit the ACS website \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility \n\n\n\n\n\nAt UKSG\, we are committed to ensuring an exceptional experience for all our delegates. Our aim is to make presentations as accessible and inclusive as possible. \n\n\n\nHere’s how we achieve that: \n\n\n\n\nClosed Captioning Options: Our GoToWebinar application allows you to toggle closed captioning on or off during live sessions. You can also customise the text size and colour to suit your preferences.\n\n\n\nAuto-Generated Transcripts: For each recorded session\, we can provide auto-generated transcripts on request. \n\n\n\n\nIf you have particular accessibility requirements or questions about this event\, we strongly encourage you to contact events@uksg.org as soon as possible.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\n\nMorning Afternoon \n\n\n\n\nTime \n\n\n\n\n\nProgramme \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:00 \n\n\n\n\n\nLog in and Housekeeping \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:00 \n\n\n\n\n\nChair’s welcome and introduction \n\n\n\nMeet our Chair’s and Co-Chairs for the day. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:10 \n\n\n\n\n\nE-resource renewal: decision-making made simple! \n\n\n\nAn overview of how Anglia Ruskin University approach the renewal of e-resource subscriptions using regular reviews\, calculating a cost per use and submitting a business case when required. Usage and cost data is collated and maintained in a spreadsheet with colour-coding to identify resources that are not performing to our pre-agreed standard. This makes it easier to concentrate our decision-making on resources that are performing less well and documents our reasoning to further support decision-making in subsequent years. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSarah Packard  \n\n\n\nAnglia Ruskin University  \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nI have worked at Anglia Ruskin University for over 20 years in a variety of roles. Currently in my role as Content Delivery Librarian I am responsible for maintaining consistent and accurate metadata for all library resources ensuring that our holdings are accurately represented in our resource discovery layer and full access to our online resources is maintained. As part of my role I also collate and manipulate and present usage data to aid decision making with regard to renewal of our e-resources. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:40 \n\n\n\n\n\nUsing data to assess transformative agreements at the University of Salford \n\n\n\nThis session will explore how open access and publishing data is used alongside subscription and usage data to assess transformative agreements at the University of Salford. As a teaching intensive university\, with specialist areas of research\, deals must offer value for money and meet the current and future needs of students and researchers. We will discuss our experience of using Unsub data and describe the processes and frameworks we use for assessing deals and how our research and acquisitions teams work together. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWendy Taylor  \n\n\n\nUniversity of Salford  \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nWendy has been Scholarly Communications Librarian at the University of Salford since 2019 and has held previous roles in cataloguing and repositories.
