SUMMARY:FREE UKSG webinar: Predatory Publishing – How to support researchers in identifying trusted journals and publishers for their research
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will help those who work with researchers offer straightforward advice to help them avoid publishing in places that they would want to avoid. \n1.  Lorraine will cover what predatory publishing is and why it is a problem.  How the scams that predatory publishers use are becoming more sophisticated and difficult to detect. \n\n2.  Lorraine will walk the delegates through Think. Check. Submit. and show them how to use it as a tool to help librarians and researchers avoid predatory publishers. \n\n3.  Katherine will provide practical examples of how she has used the principles of Think. Check. Submit when helping researchers think about where to publish. She will provide examples of how lack of some due diligence has led to some difficulties with regards to invoices from predatory publishers\, and how this can be avoided in the future. \n\n  \n\nRegister for this recording \n\nYou may still register for the recording of the webinar by visiting the GoToWebinar site. \n\nTranscript \n\nThe recording including transcript will be available shortly on the UKSG Webinar channel. \n\n(Please note that webinars have software generated transcripts therefore are not 100% accurate.

Advancing equity and openness in scholarship: A view from MIT – Chris Bourg\, MIT \n\n\n\nFrom launching Open CourseWare twenty years ago to passing one of the first faculty open access policies in the US in 2009\, MIT has a long history of supporting and advancing openness in education and scholarship. In recent years\, open advocates at MIT have increasingly incorporated a focus on equity in our efforts\, based on a belief that equitable opportunity to contribute to scholarship is as important to the integrity and usefulness of scholarship as is open and equitable access to read and use scholarly products. In this talk\, Chris Bourg\, Director of Libraries at MIT\, will talk about progress and potential for understanding\, advancing\, and sustaining open and equitable scholarship at MIT and through collective action with other institutions.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChris Bourg \n\n\n\nMIT \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nChris Bourg is the Director of Libraries at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)\, and founding director of the Center for Research on Equitable and Open Scholarship (CREOS). \n\n\n\nChris has extensive experience promoting equitable and open scholarship\, and is an advocate for the role of libraries in promoting social justice and democracy. Chris co-chaired the MIT Ad Hoc Task Force on the Future of Libraries and the MIT Ad Hoc Task Force on Open Access to MIT’s Research\, and is a member of the National Academies of Science\, Engineering and Medicine Roundtable on Aligning Incentives for Open Science. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n2. From open access to open science for UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) – Rachel Bruce – UK Research and Innovation Strategy \n\n\n\nOpen science is a strategic priority for UKRI\, the UK’s largest public research funder.  Working in partnership across the research environment is essential to progress open science and to bring about more accessible\, transparent and re-useable research.   In this talk Rachel Bruce will describe the UKRI open research strategy and reflect on partnership with a range of stakeholders\, including libraries and publishers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRachel Bruce \n\n\n\nUK Research and Innovation Strategy \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nRachel Bruce is Head of Open Research at UK Research and Innovation (UKRI).

What? There’s lots of vital stuff missing from the scholarly record! – Toby Green\, Coherent Digital \n\n\n\nThe scholarly record has always comprised *more* than books and journals – pamphlets\, reports\, working papers etc\, i.e. the much-ignored and often-misunderstood ‘grey literature’. Curiously\, digital makes it harder for the “more” to be included in today’s scholarly record and much is now missing. What makes this urgent is that Web 2.0 has unleashed a huge increase in born-digital grey stuff (all of the above but now also tweets\, blog posts etc). In this lightning talk you’ll learn about the extent of the problem and a project that’s trying to address it. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nToby Green \n\n\n\nCoherent Digital \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nToby\, Publisher\, Policy Commons and Co-Founder of Coherent Digital\, has 35+ years experience in scholarly\, policy and professional publishing. Previously\, he held a variety of senior roles with OECD Publishing and Elsevier Science. Besides the formal stuff\, Toby has wrestled with data publishing and is now trying to tame grey literature. He is a regular speaker at publishing and librarian events in Europe and North America. He serves as expert advisor to the Open Research Community. Previously\, he was a member of the Royal Society of Chemistry Publishing Board and Chair of ALPSP. https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9601-9130 https://twitter.com/tobyabgreen . \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n2. Influential Researcher: tackling researcher engagement with metrics through personalised action plans – James Barnett\, University of Birmingham \n\n\n\nAt University of Birmingham\, the Library Services Research Skills Team have been part of a successful ‘Influential Researcher’ programme\, supporting academic researchers with gaining a sense of agency over the range of metrics\, personal identifiers (PIDs) and online publication profiles that are intrinsic to research culture. This lightning talk explores the background of the ‘Influential Researcher’ programme\, its development through the lens of responsible metrics\, and highlights how running ‘Online Publication Profile’ workshops (where attendees are sent a personalised action plan prior to the session) give time-poor researchers a practical set of steps for curating their online identities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJames Barnett \n\n\n\nUniversity of Birmingham \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nJames Barnett has been a Research Skills Advisor for Library Services at the University of Birmingham since 2019\, having previously worked as an Academic Liaison Librarian at Coventry University. In his role within the Research Skills Team\, James provides the university’s research community with training and one-to-one support on topics such as Literature Searching\, Reference Management\, Open Research and Research Metrics. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n3. Scholarship that’s built to last: Strategies for publishers\, platform creators\, and authors – Karen Hanson\, Portico\, ITHAKA \n\n\n\nEnabled by the web-dominated digital era\, many publishers are supporting enhanced forms of scholarly publication that include features such as embedded multimedia\, interactive maps\, annotations\, non-linear navigation\, and more. Decisions made about how to implement these features can have implications for the long-term sustainability and preservability of the publications. In a project funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and led by NYU Libraries\, our teams evaluated a variety of enhanced publications for preservability and developed a set of guidelines to be used by publishers\, authors\, and platform developers to improve the likelihood that these publications can be preserved. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKaren Hanson \n\n\n\nPortico\, ITHAKA \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nKaren is the Senior Research Developer at Portico\, a digital preservation archive for scholarly content. Her role is to identify current and emerging technology issues relevant to the service’s operations and mission\, as well as discover\, evaluate\, develop\, and implement tools to enhance the preservation service. Karen previously worked as the Knowledge Systems Librarian at NYU Health Sciences Libraries where she specialized in digital archives and research data management services\, and as a Software Engineer for the Digital Research and Curation Center at Johns Hopkins University Libraries. She holds a Masters in Library and Information Science from Rutgers University. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n19.00 \n\n\n\n\n\nSupper and quiz (optional) \n\n\n\nKindly sponsored by ACS Publications \n\n\n\nGala Reception Partner\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime \n\n\n\n\n\nProgramme \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n08.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\nRefreshments and exhibition viewing \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n08.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nChair Yoga (optional) \n\n\n\nMore details to follow  \n\n\n\nKindly sponsored by Burgundy Information Services \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n09.00 \n\n\n\n\n\nPlenary Session 2 \n\n\n\n1. The role of Universities in delivering inclusive regional growth through Knowledge Exchange – Hamish McAlpine\, Oxentia \n\n\n\nThe role of universities in supporting regional regeneration and growth is increasingly well recognised. But how do universities navigate this complex landscape\, and how does this activity align with their broader missions around teaching and research? Once known as the ‘third mission’ or ‘third leg of the stool’\, I argue that Knowledge Exchange is now a critical and integral part of how universities deliver their mission and strategies. As both government policy and KE practice evolves\, how can all parts of the university work together to deliver for their regions\, and how might this benefit the university? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHamish McAlpine \n\n\n\nOxentia \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nOxentia is Oxford’s global innovation consultancy. As Principal Consultant\, Hamish works with Higher Education and government clients\, delivering consultancy\, strategy development and training on knowledge exchange and commercialisation (KEC) and innovation management. He has a particular interest in innovation ecosystems and the role of universities in driving inclusive regional growth. \n\n\n\nBefore joining Oxentia in 2021\, Hamish was the Head of Data & Evidence at Research England\, part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI). He was responsible for creating England’s first Knowledge Exchange Framework (KEF)\, as well as managing £250m per annum of KE funding\, and related policy areas. In his spare time\, he upcycles bit of old aircraft into furniture \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n2. Universities put in their place – Sue Black  \n\n\n\nAt one extreme a university may operate irrespective of the geographical location it inhabits whilst at the other\, it may be the very life blood of its community. The Government’s current focus on the role of ‘place’\, regional growth and the levelling up agenda\, poses an interesting dilemma for some\, but opportunity for others\, to reconsider their function as an anchor institution within their community. We will explore this using examples from Lancaster University’s civic journey. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSue Black \n\n\n\nLancaster University \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nProfessor Dame Sue Black is Pro Vice Chancellor for Engagement at Lancaster University. She is President elect of St. John’s College\, Oxford and a cross bench peer as Baroness Black of Strome. She is President\, Fellow and Trustee of the Royal Anthropological Institute which is the professional body for her discipline of Forensic Anthropology for which she was awarded and OBE in 2001 and a DBE in 2016. She is a Fellow of the British Academy\, Royal Society of Edinburgh and Royal Society of Biology. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n3.   Compassionate leadership: the role of libraries in promoting social justice –  Joshua Sendall\, University of Nottingham \n\n\n\nWe continue to operate in an environment characterised by significant volatility\, uncertainty\, complexity\, and ambiguity. A fractured global geopolitical settlement\, profound environmental and climate pressures\, the rapid driving forces of digital transformation\, and significant social\, economic and health inequalities. These pervasive challenges have been amplified through the seismic impact of the coronavirus pandemic. These are not partisan issues – they affect us all.           \n\n\n\nJosh will explore the positive role that libraries can play in responding to the challenges as compassionate leaders striving towards social justice. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJosh Sendall \n\n\n\nUniversity of Nottingham \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nJosh joined University of Nottingham Libraries as Associate Director for Research in November 2021. He works within and beyond the institution to develop libraries’ role as a research service provider\, partner\, and pioneer. He leads collaborative and enterprising teams who enable open research environments which maximise the reach\, impact\, and integrity of research. \n\n\n\nPrior to joining Nottingham\, Josh held several roles at Lancaster University including Library Aide\, Learning Zone Student Advisor\, Information Assistant\, Research Data Manager\, and most recently\, Research and Scholarly Communications Manager. \n\n\n\nJosh promotes equality\, diversity and inclusion leading to productive\, healthy\, and resilient cultures and communities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nRefreshments and exhibition viewing \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11.00 \n\n\n\n\n\nBreakout Session – Group A \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12.00 \n\n\n\n\n\nLightning Talks – Session 2 \n\n\n\n1. What can we learn from the ESAC Market Watch? – Ádám Dér\, Max Planck Digital Library \n\n\n\nThe ESAC Initiative is open and global community of practice of librarians who are sharing their experiences and expertise in the operational aspects of open access agreements. The ESAC community also develops community resources and guidelines to empower librarians as they move into the era of open access\, including the ESAC Workflow Recommendations\, ESAC Transformative Agreement Registry\, and most recently\, the ESAC Market Watch and the ESAC Reference Guide to Transformative Agreements. The presentation will introduce how the community can learn from a number of key trends in the demographics and distribution of scholarly journal publishing in transition\, and use these to better understand their position in the scholarly publishing market and make strategic considerations regarding their interactions with publishers. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdam Der \n\n\n\nMax Planck Digital Library \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nAdam Der is a member of the licence management team of the Max Planck Digital Library\, where his main responsibilities are in publisher negotiations to advance the open access transition in scholarly publishing.

Exploring the link between Open Access publication and perceived output quality at a small public research university in Hampshire – University of Winchester \n\n\n\nThe REF 2021 Open Access mandate was established in recognition of the benefits of OA publication and in an effort to increase the proportion of UK-funded research that is openly accessible. The REF is\, however\, primarily an assessment of research quality\, not availability. As researchers and academics selected their best outputs for REF submission\, the possibility arose that an association would be implied between openness and quality. In order to find out whether this had happened at the University of Winchester\, research-active staff were invited to complete a survey measuring the likelihood that they would choose Green and Gold OA for outputs that they perceived to be of particularly high quality. The results show that there may in fact be a perception amongst Winchester academics that Open Access is more appropriate for very good outputs than for those perceived to be mediocre. The implications of this are briefly discussed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJacqueline Barlow \n\n\n\nUniversity of Winchester \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nJacqueline Barlow has held the position of Open Access Officer at the University of Winchester since September 2017.

Many sadlyy are not archived in a long-term digital preservation scheme\, and so something needs to be done to prevent these journals from vanishing from the internet. A team of organisations have come together to find a solution that will decrease the number of unarchived journals. This is project JASPER.The first phase (now ongoing) is a pilot to check if journals indexed in DOAJ will engage with archiving services when prompted to do so and with the offer of help. DOAJ acts as a conduit for the journals and a single point of contact for participating preservation services (initially CLOCKSS\, Internet Archive\, and PKP-PN). Preserved content then appears in the Keepers Registry.In phase two we will expand to support more journals and to involve more preservation services in hope that the content will be preserved by at least three services\, in line with best practice.The lightning talk will focus on lessons learned and next steps.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlicia Wise \n\n\n\nCLOCKSS \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nAlicia Wise is Executive Director of CLOCKSS\, a community of research libraries and academic publishers working together to ensure the long-term preservation of the scholarly record.

This is uncharted territory for most publishers and academics\, and those at the nexus of publishing OA books require support.               \n\n\n\nThis interactive workshop will consider current developments in this area and provide an outline of the key findings of our work. We will invite feedback from attendees to inform understanding of the requirements and challenges faced by the academic community.                                                \n\n\n\nIn order to provide this support\, we have carried out research looking at academics’ opinions concerning publishing OA books and have identified key pain points experienced when dealing with OA book policies.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKaren Jackson \n\n\n\nJisc \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nKaren has worked at Jisc since 2017 and having been involved with several products in the Open Research portfolio she now manages Sherpa Services\, leading the development and evolution of these products and services.

The near reverence with which students used to regard serious newspapers had largely evaporated and\, in some cases\, been replaced with outright contempt. I taught scholarly research and writing at the start of our new millennium and\, like most of my colleagues\, I encouraged skepticism toward the media. We taught our students that even the most prestigious newspapers shouldn’t be taken for gospel and that all articles were susceptible to error and bias. Today\, this kind of instruction is neither necessary nor helpful. For the most part\, students are already skeptical of the media and\, where they detect opinions in news sources different from their own\, they are increasingly likely to dismiss everything in those sources as fundamentally unreliable. In this session\, we will consider the main reasons students have lost faith in the media and explore non-naïve and responsible ways of building it back. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdam Blackwell \n\n\n\nNewsbank \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nAfter many years at ProQuest\, Adam recently moved to Newsbank.

What strategies are being applied on both national and institutional levels\, why and how? A panel discussion will hear from library consortial and national approaches as to why they changed their funding strategies to include OS infrastructure\, which we hope will give others the confidence to do the same. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVanessa Proudman \n\n\n\nSCOSS/SPARC Europe \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nVanessa Proudman is Director of SPARC Europe\, where she is working to make Open the default in Europe.

So\, will there be any need for this usage data in an increasingly open access environment? This session discusses this question in the context of emerging community action business models and asks if usage statistics are relevant in evaluating the investment libraries are making in open access journal and book content. If usage statistics are relevant\, whose usage? The usage by members of the institution or the usage made by people in the wider world? Finally\, this session will discuss what COUNTER has been doing over the course of the last year to explore these questions\, and how COUNTER reports could develop as a result. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTasha Mellins-Cohen \n\n\n\nCounter \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nTasha Mellins-Cohen\, Executive Director at COUNTER Metrics and Founder of Mellins-Cohen Consulting\, joined the scholarly publishing industry in 2001.

Perceptions differ about what constitutes ‘open’ in terms of the wide variety of systems and solutions deployed by libraries.                         \n\n\n\nWith the rise of cloud computing\, software ‘platforms’ are on the rise. The value of a platform. as opposed to a software ‘product’ comes not only from its own features\, but from its ability to connect to external solutions\, data\, and processes. To do this it needs to be ‘open’ in terms of data and the ability to integrate\, via (typically open) application programming Interfaces (APIs)\, with other products which may be developed by customers or provided by other independent software vendors (ISVs).   The result is that we see open source library system platforms such as Folio integrating with proprietary software solutions such as reading lists. Equally we see proprietary library system platforms making use of open source software and enabling third parties to integrate to add functionality and re-use data and services provides by the platform.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKen Chad \n\n\n\nKen Chad Consulting Ltd \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nKen gained his Master’s degree from the Information Science Department at City University in London.

Since then\, the Austrian Academic Library Consortium has concluded deals with all major publishers and increasingly with society and university presses as well. This session will explore the challenges encountered while searching for a fair and sustainable cost-sharing model in a world in transition to Open Access\, where the costs for reading and publishing continue to coexist. We will present the first transformative cost-sharing model\, rolled out for two major agreements (Wiley and Springer)\, and provide an honest account of our experience to date. We will also give an overview of the AT2OA Post Transition Study\, which builds on the methodology developed by Schimmer et al.\, and how this has influenced our current approaches. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRita Pinhasi \n\n\n\nUniversity of Vienna \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nA graduate of UCL\, Rita Pinhasi joined Vienna University Library in 2017\, where she has been involved in the negotiations of various institutional and national Open Access publishing agreements\, from data analysis through workflows to licensing.

Engaging the community in shaping OA policy for books. \n\n\n\nThe Open Access Books Network (OABN) is a relatively new kid on the block\, but it punches above its weight. Our most significant series so far was the Voices from the OA Books Community\, devoted to exploring different aspects of policy for OA books. \n\n\n\nDuring the heated discussions\, what were the main areas of consensus and which topics emerged as especially controversial? Which aspects of OA policy for books perplexed the community and provoked more questions than answers? In this session we will hear from session leaders and participants as they paint a nuanced picture of a necessary but complex endeavour: how to directly engage the OA books community in developing policies that will materially affect its future. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVanessa Proudman \n\n\n\nSCOSS/SPARC Europe \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nVanessa Proudman is Director of SPARC Europe\, where she is working to make Open the default in Europe.

Libraries and non-profit publishers often share similar missions\, but existing structures on both sides can work to create barriers to collaboration. The system remains configured to work with paid subscriptions or perpetual licensing\, alongside print procurement\, which can work against implementing OA models. What are the major structural impediments for OA? How can smaller and non-profit presses cooperate with libraries to create OA positive structures? We will use the Jisc Open Access Community Framework\, MIT Press’s D2O\, and PLoS CAP models as case studies for change. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgata Morka \n\n\n\nSPARC Europe \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHelen Dobson \n\n\n\nJisc \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nHelen is a Licensing portfolio specialist for research content at Jisc.

But the framework\, knowledge and possible implementation of these new standards seem diverse and somehow not consistent enough to produce sustainable change. This breakout session aims to frame the field\, layout strategic options and dwell into concrete cases. \n\n\n\nThe moderators are members of the LIBER “Citizen Science Working Group”. In this session\, we will illustrate the interests\, the thrill and the achievements working to improve the academic mission in order to better serve the society. \n\n\n\nBridging the gap: SDU Citizen Science Knowledge Center as facilitator between science as society (Anne Kathrine Overgaard) \n\n\n\nPolicy and strategy: International trends\, guidelines and recommendations (Thomas Kaarsted) \n\n\n\nStrategy and implementation: Supporting Citizen Science in the UCL Office for Open Science & Scholarship (Kirsty Wallis) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThomas Kaarsted \n\n\n\nUniversity of Southern Denmark \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nThomas Kaarsted is Deputy Library Director and daily manager of SDU Citizen Science.

This includes particular focus on creating a community around citizen science and developing an advocacy and support service. Kirsty is also a part-time PhD student\, researching the evolution of research support services in Libraries and the effect of the shifting policy landscape. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nTowards a model for assessing the value of transformative agreements for both “read” and “publish” institutions \n\n\n\nRead and publish deals or Transformative Agreements\, through which funders and institutions pay for knowledge dissemination rather than access\, are a recent pathway toward a more open future. Yet we lack a framework for assessing the combined value of the open publishing and comprehensive read access that these deals provide. Perceived and actual value and price vary according to whether an institution is a major content producer (publish institution) or content consumer (read institution). To assess the value from these differing perspectives\, we’ll use top-down data from Delta Think’s OA Data & Analytics Tool and bottom up data from Our Research’s Unsub. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMichael Levine-Clark \n\n\n\nUniversity of Denver \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nMichael Levine-Clark is Dean of the University of Denver Libraries\, where he has worked in various positions since 1999.

Somewhat surprisingly\, most attention has been focused on algorithms\, yet the corpus may be even more important\, from the point of view of potential bias. There is already plenty of experience within the library at measuring the take-up and effect (and limitations) of digital tools. Using some real-life case studies\, this presentation gives suggestions for assessing AI tools compared with current manual processes\, and considers how use cases can help identify new ways of deploying of AI. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMichael Upshall \n\n\n\nUNSILO\, a Division of Cactus Communications \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nTracking the open access book: what data do research institutions and libraries need in support of their strategies around open access books? \n\n\n\nWith momentum for Open Access (OA) books on the rise\, there have been calls by various stakeholders to open up the library and develop OA book infrastructures to further support the transition to OA for books. One of the key infrastructures for OA books is the OAPEN Library that helps stakeholders tracking usage of OA books. During this session we will show how OAPEN can provide usage data for different stakeholders and seek to explore additional kinds of data that libraries may find useful to inform their OA book strategies and decision-making processes to support OA book publishing initiatives. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTom Mosterd \n\n\n\nDOAB & OAPEN\, Open Access Books Network \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nTom Mosterd is the Community Manager for DOAB & OAPEN.

This paper will explore the challenges of turning these ideals into practical action. It will ask what practically can be effected by librarians. Does this situation require a revolution? If not\, can significant reform be achieved within existing power structures? Or are these notions fundamentally impossible\, and academic libraries should resign themselves to an accommodation with commercialism and look for other values in their partnerships? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPeter Barr \n\n\n\nUniversity of Sheffield \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nPeter Barr leads a team with responsibility for library acquisitions and collection management at the University of Sheffield.

The seminar will take place online over two half days. \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\, March 29\, 2022 – 10:30 BSTtoWednesday\, March 30\, 2022 – 14:00 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\nAbout the Event\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration is closed  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Summary \n\n\n\n\n\nElectronic publishing has brought huge changes to learned information provision and to the role of librarians and other information professionals.  ‘Ownership’ of content is no longer a simple matter of receiving and storing print copies on a shelf.  Publishers and intermediaries license access to electronic resources\, and so the licence has become a feature of most sales agreements.  Information professionals consequently need to become familiar with the terms and conditions of licences\, their meaning and their implications.  This two-day online course will address these issues using a mixture of presentations\, group sessions and some homework. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy should you attend? \n\n\n\n\n\nThe online course is designed specifically for librarians involved in e-resource purchasing in academic institutions. Librarians in these institutions who are being trained to undertake purchasing roles will also benefit from attending. Participants will gain a good understanding of the key issues surrounding publisher licensing and negotiations\, together with practical skills and knowledge which they will be able to use in their professional lives. \n\n\n\nJisc Collections has an international reputation for expertise in the negotiation and licensing of scholarly online resources.  It currently manages around 200 agreements and its model licence is seen as a ‘gold standard’ across the academic sector. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives \n\n\n\n\n\nAt the end of the course participants will: \n\n\n\n•    understand the key issues surrounding publisher licensing\, and how these impact libraries•    be familiar with the concept of a Model Licence and the important clauses in publisher licences•    be familiar with the principles of successful negotiation of terms and conditions in the context of licensing online information resources•    understand the fundamental dos and don’ts of e-resource licence negotiation•    be aware of the legal implications that licence terms have for their institution•    understand the latest issues and concerns related to licensing•    be aware of the issues around licensing for additional users\, including those at partner organisations. \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\nRecording \n\n\n\n\n\nThe sessions will be recorded and available to all registered delegates after the event\, so if you unable to join us live or want to review any presentation this will be available. \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.

SUMMARY:Publication to press: building trust in research communication
DESCRIPTION:Media interest in research has never been greater due to the global impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and Climate Change\, among other topics. How research is communicated varies from an international scale down to local level\, as also reflected in the quality of coverage from in-depth news features to poorly referenced\, click-bait churnalism.  Join us for this online seminar that takes place over one day – Wednesday 9th February.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, February 9\, 2022 – 10:00 GMTtoWednesday\, February 9\, 2022 – 15:00 GMT \n\n\n\n \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\nHow research is communicated should be of the greatest importance to academics\, their organisations\, funders\, journals and the media organisation. Ultimately it should be of the highest importance to policy makers and society. Yet\, in a world where research is increasingly published Open Access there is still a failure to include all of the relevant pieces of information\, such as links to the research paper\, especially on a local level.   \n\n\n\nThose working in the publishing\, media communications\, library and journalism sectors share common ground and would benefit from a greater understanding of how they could benefit by their greater collaboration. Librarians and journalists both work to analyse and deliver factual information\, yet that is undermined by missing out key elements that can underpin a news story\, such as an article or funder link.   \n\n\n\nAcademics looking to capture pathways to impact miss out on evidence if there is no audit trail relating to the coverage due to the lack of proper media coverage. Whilst Altmetrics can help this\, it often fails to pick up mentions\, due to the aforementioned problems. The lack of substantial evidence within a news story has the potential to generate fake or poorly reported news\, which can have a damaging impact on research communication. It is much harder for a journalist to apply bias or cherry pick a piece of research if they have to cite a freely available research article or lay summary.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend? \n\n\n\n\n\nThis seminar is aimed at journalists\, librarians\, publishers and communications professionals in universities and publishing.   \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\nAccessibility \n\n\n\n\n\nAt UKSG\, we are committed to ensuring an exceptional experience for all our delegates.

The COVID pandemic presented a rapidly expanding and evolving science coupled with significant scientific uncertainty. There has been much public and political hunger for information\, as well as debate and misinformation\, all amplified and polarized by social media. There is a story to tell\, but the consequences of misinformation can have fatal consequences and cause considerable public harm. Andrew is Reader in Public Health at the University of Sheffield\, and has been sought after by the media for his expertise in communicable disease control\, including BBC News & Newsnight\, Australian Broadcasting Corporation\, the Guardian\, El Mercurio and various radio channels. He will discuss an academic’s perspective on science communication during the pandemic\, lessons learned\, and how academics and the media can work synergistically for the public good.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAndrew Lee \n\n\n\nUniversity of Sheffield  \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\ntba \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10.45 \n\n\n\n\n\nMeaningful media impact through science communication best practice: a publisher perspective \n\n\n\n“Good quality science communication can help research fly\, enhancing public understanding and trust in the scientific process.

SUMMARY:Free UKSG Further Education Webinar Series - Reporting for better budget allocation and improved user experience
DESCRIPTION:Reporting for better budget allocation and improved user experience\n  \n\nThe digital revolution has changed the relationship between libraries/librarians and end-users. Many libraries have had to strengthen their digital presence to survive\, especially over the last 12 months. Part of making libraries accessible and effective is to install tools that allow them to demonstrate and monitor the library’s impact on its users. \n\nIn this talk\, Cristina Ruiz de Asua\, academic librarian at Nescot College\, will be discussing the importance of reporting and the key metrics you need to look out for\, whether it is to identify bottlenecks\, improve services or better allocate budgets. Cristina will also talk about the improvements on user experience she’s carried on during the pandemic\, including the implementation of OpenAthens single sign-on. \n\n  \n\nRegister for this recording \n\nYou may still register for the recording of the webinar by visiting the GoToWebinar site. \n\nTranscript \n\nThe recording including transcript will be available shortly on the UKSG – Further Education webinar channel. \n\n(Please note that webinars have software generated transcripts therefore are not 100% accurate. If you would like a copy of the transcript please feel free to contact samira@uksg.org). \n\nSlides \n\nOur speaker has kindly agreed to make her slides available. You may download them from here.

SUMMARY:UKSG November Conference - Open Scholarship 2021: the good\, the bad and the ugly
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the 2021 UKSG November Conference – “Open Scholarship 2021: the good\, the bad and the ugly”. This year’s event will take place online over two consecutive half days. Wednesday 17th November: 9.30am GMT to approx. 12pm and Thursday 18th November: 1.30pm GMT to 5pm. \n\n\n\nSummary\n\n\n\nThe shift away from paywalls and towards open access continues to fundamentally change every area of our sector with new roles\, new business models and new power centres. Or is ‘the power’ in scholarship still centred in the same overall hands?  Can everyone be a winner in this new world\, or do some groups face continued – worse – challenges in the drive to make scholarship open? \n\n\n\nThis event brings together voices from across our sector to take a holistic view of open scholarship\, showing the flipsides and squeezed middles. Almost ten years on from the Finch Report\, we continue to be in a time of transition. We’ve travelled far\, but the road is no less bumpy – and what happens to those who fall behind? \n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nThe conference welcomes members and non-members of UKSG alike – Please note that advance registration is required.  \n\n\n\nRegistration is available here\, and will be valid for both sessions on the 17th and 18th November.  \n\n\n\nFees (both days): \n\n\n\n\nMember – £ 45.00 + £ 9.00 VAT\n\n\n\nNon-Member – £ 55.00 + £ 11.00 VAT\n\n\n\n\n(A list of members can be found here) \n\n\n\nIf you are unable to attend –   We will send you a link to a recording after the event.  \n\n\n\nPre event checks\n\n\n\nTo test your system ahead of time visit https://support.goto.com/webinar/system-check-attendee \n\n\n\nFollow the webinar on Twitter @UKSG and the hashtag #UKSGNov \n\n\n\nThank you to our sponsors:\n\n\n\nwww.amdigital.co.ukwww.harrassowitz.deSpringer Naturewww.wiley.com\n\n\n\nAccessibility\n\n\n\nUKSG wants to provide the best possible experience for all our delegates\, making presentations as accessible and inclusive as possible. \n\n\n\nOur intention where possible is to strongly encourage our speakers to provide auto generated closed captioning for both live and recorded events as well as to make sure their slides as easy as possible for all people to read. In addition\, we can provide auto generated transcripts post event for each of the recorded sessions. \n\n\n\nIf you have particular accessibility needs or questions about this event\, we welcome you to contact events@uksg.org about this seminar/webinar\, we welcome you to contact events@uksg.org \n\n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\n\nWednesday 17th November Thursday 18th November \n\n\n\n\nTime \n\n\n\n\n\nProgramme \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n09.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nIntroduction & welcome \n\n\n\nAll times stated are GMT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n09.40 \n\n\n\n\n\nLibraries in flux: surviving and thriving in the transition to open? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPatrick Danowski  \n\n\n\nInstitute of Science and Technology Austria \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nPatrick Danowski is the manager of IST Austria Library\, member of the board of the Austrian Library Association and a division chair of IFLA.

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.

SUMMARY:FREE UKSG webinar - Making Open Access Book Funding Work Fairly: Central European University Press and Opening the Future
DESCRIPTION:Open access monograph publishing needs to be sustainable not just for publishers\, but also for libraries. CEU Press’ collective library funding programme ‘Opening the Future’ was designed to be low-cost and simple\, slotting into acquisitions budgets and existing library purchasing workflows. Several months into launch\, we assess how this has fared and discuss how we can scale without increasing the administrative and decision-making burden already on collections and scholarly communications teams\, who are already picking through a tangle of transformative agreements\, pay-to-publish deals\, author affiliations\, and legacy subscriptions. The session will be set in context of the recent UKRI monograph policy announcement. \n  \n\nRegister for this recording \n\nYou may still register for the recording of the webinar here. \n\nTranscript \n\nThe recording\, including transcript\, is available on the UKSG free webinars channel. \n\n(Please note that webinars have software generated transcripts therefore are not 100% accurate.

SUMMARY:UKSG Licensing Skills Online Seminar 2021
DESCRIPTION:This seminar is designed for librarians involved in e-resource purchasing in academic institutions; librarians in these institutions who are being trained to undertake purchasing roles will also benefit from attending. The seminar will take place online over two half days. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, September 21\, 2021 – 10:30 BSTtoWednesday\, September 22\, 2021 – 14:00 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\nAbout the Event\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration is close  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Summary \n\n\n\n\n\nElectronic publishing has brought huge changes to learned information provision and to the role of librarians and other information professionals.  ‘Ownership’ of content is no longer a simple matter of receiving and storing print copies on a shelf.  Publishers and intermediaries license access to electronic resources\, and so the licence has become a feature of most sales agreements.  Information professionals consequently need to become familiar with the terms and conditions of licences\, their meaning and their implications.  This two-day online course will address these issues using a mixture of presentations\, group sessions and some homework. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy should you attend? \n\n\n\n\n\nThe online course is designed for librarians involved in e-resource purchasing in academic institutions. Librarians in these institutions who are being trained to undertake purchasing roles will also benefit from attending. Participants will gain a good understanding of the key issues surrounding publisher licensing and negotiations\, together with practical skills and knowledge which they will be able to use in their professional lives. \n\n\n\nJisc Collections has an international reputation for expertise in the negotiation and licensing of scholarly online resources.  It currently manages around 200 agreements and its model licence is seen as a ‘gold standard’ across the academic sector. \n\n\n\nDO NOTE:  We welcome participants from all corners of the globe to join our seminars\, however speakers and topics for this event are generally UK focussed and times are in BST\, 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\nAt the end of the course participants will: \n\n\n\n•    understand the key issues surrounding publisher licensing\, and how these impact libraries•    be familiar with the concept of a Model Licence and the important clauses in publisher licences•    be familiar with the principles of successful negotiation of terms and conditions in the context of licensing online information resources•    understand the fundamental dos and don’ts of e-resource licence negotiation•    be aware of the legal implications that licence terms have for their institution•    understand the latest issues and concerns related to licensing•    be aware of the issues around licensing for additional users\, including those at partner organisations. \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\nSponsorship  \n\n\n\n\n\nFor more information on event sponsorship options in 2021 please visit the sponsorship page here – now fully booked. \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.

SUMMARY:FREE UKSG webinar - Federated authentication for library resources: can it be trusted?
DESCRIPTION:Library users are increasingly authenticating to online resources from off campus. Access control via campus IP recognition remains but publishers and service providers are increasingly investing in federated single sign on technologies such as SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language). Can libraries trust a platform that asks users to sign in with their personal institutional credentials? This webinar will explain how federated authentication works\, will discuss the benefits for libraries and service providers and address the apparent conflict between offering personalisation whilst still preserving user privacy. \n  \nRegister for this recording \nYou may still register for the recording of the webinar by visiting the GoToWebinar site. \nTranscript \nThe recording including transcript will be available shortly on the UKSG free webinars channel. \n(Please note that webinars have software generated transcripts therefore are not 100% accurate.

The seminar will be delivered over two mornings\, and delegates will be asked to use the time in between sessions to reflect on some of the issues raised. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend? \n\n\n\n\n\nDesigned particularly for staff who are new to working with e-resources\, whether from a publisher\, an intermediary or a library\, this seminar may also be of interest to those looking to consolidate and update their e-resources knowledge. \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\nCourse level and previous knowledge required \n\n\n\n\n\nIntroductory and non-intensive\, entry-level training for the beginner\, novice or returner.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives \n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo gain practical tips on managing e-resources which can be applied in the workplace\n\n\n\n\n\nTo gain a basic understanding of the serials supply chain and the factors influencing it\, including Open Access\n\n\n\n\n\nTo understand and learn how to build relationships between publishers\, intermediaries and libraries\n\n\n\n\n\nTo learn how to have informed conversations with customers/suppliers\n\n\n\n\n\nTo gain insight into the practical aspects of managing e-books\n\n\n\n\n\nTo share experiences with other delegates and discuss questions and challenges which arise during the seminar.\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\nSocial \n\n\n\n\n\nFollow the conference on X formally Twitter @UKSG  \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.

SUMMARY:FREE UKSG webinar - Back to the Future: Lessons learned from the Jisc OA Textbook project
DESCRIPTION:With eTextbooks high on library and publisher agendas and the controversy over costs and access raging\, OA textbooks could be a solution. What are the considerations for initiating\, and sustaining an open access textbook directly linked to teaching at one institution\, but open to all? The 2014-2018 Jisc Institution as eTextbook Publisher project funded OA textbook pilots and created a toolkit. Liverpool published 2 titles\, in a partnership with the Library and Liverpool University Press. In this webinar we will revisit the project and look forward\, considering resource and expertise requirements for a sustainable OA textbook model. \n  \n\nRegister for this recording \n\nYou may still register for the recording of the webinar by visiting the GoToWebinar site. \n\nTranscript \n\nThe recording including transcript will be available shortly on the UKSG free webinars channel. \n\n(Please note that webinars have software generated transcripts therefore are not 100% accurate.

Including the impact on our systems and feedback from other stakeholders involved. Such policies place significant new responsibilities on individual researchers\, including how and where they preserve their data. This session will therefore be of particular interest to those involved in supporting authors to follow new data sharing requirements.

With an increasingly educated population\, more people want access to reliable information.In 2019\, the library research support teams at the University of the West of England and University of Bristol\, delivered a public engagement event at a local public library. This aimed to showcase the tools available to access academic research outputs and provide guidance on how to appraise the information found.This talk will explore the feedback received and next steps in response to Covid 19. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJane Belger \n\n\n\nUniversity of the West of England \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nJane Belger has been Research and Open access librarian at the University of the West of England since 2014\, having previously held a number of customer service roles.

Cumbria County Council paid a UK structural design firm £1.15 million to conduct repairs\, and in 2019 the paper of its renovation was published. Unfortunately\, academics who wish to write about real-world impact will find systemic barriers to themselves publishing in a journal that prominently features practitioners\, leading them to often do so ‘off-the-books’. What is the future post-UKRI ‘Pathways to Impact’?

Publishing revenues have been under pressure for years. In partner-published societies\, the inclusion of journals in big deals means shrinking revenue and a loss of transparency\, while at the same time independent society publishers have struggled to sell single subscriptions in a market where the majority of funds are directed at big deals. Society approaches to OA\, however\, are driven by the needs and preferences of their members and therefore many societies are embracing OA and aiming to transition away from subscription revenues. In practice this has meant independent society publishers implementing new models\, working with consortia as well as agents and introducing entirely new workflows and metadata to manage deals\, in a very short space of time. By contrast partner-published societies have been swept along by their partners\, usually with a further loss of visibility and control over their own titles. \n\n\n\n Then 2020 arrived\, bringing with it a global pandemic\, and the other two legs of the society stool became as unstable as publishing revenues. Societies were unable to deliver their usual events\, and thus lost the new members who would usually sign up for those events. In the UK the government pressed ahead with a hard Brexit but delayed decisions until the last possible moment\, leaving societies\, like everyone else\, to scramble for a response. The question must be asked: How might societies and institutions better work together to properly support the scholars who rely on both sides? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTasha Mellins-Cohen \n\n\n\nMellins-Cohen Consulting \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nTasha Mellins-Cohen\, Executive Director at COUNTER Metrics and Founder of Mellins-Cohen Consulting\, joined the scholarly publishing industry in 2001.

This is\, however\, a subset of the titles becoming available thanks to increased funding\, in both the US and Europe. Many are of extremely high quality and from well-known as well as innovative new publishers. Because library vendors struggle with the business model\, there are obstacles for libraries in trying to acquire these titles. This session will explore the changing landscape of OA ebooks and describe successful strategies adopted by libraries to add them to collections\, support their publishing\, discovery\, and use. Many libraries are interested in supporting open access\, but they are challenged by both budgetary issues and workflow exceptions. This session will provide a manageable and pragmatic way forward for academic libraries of all sizes. The speakers will share how their institutions are supporting open access book publication while also adding valuable new resources for their campus communities — free of the familiar use restrictions that are so frustrating to librarians when working with ebooks. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCharles Watkinson \n\n\n\nUniversity of Michigan Library \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nCharles Watkinson is Associate University Librarian for Publishing at the University of Michigan Library and Director of University of Michigan Press.

In this presentation\, I argue for a new approach to enable libraries to take back control of their systems and their data. Open source software is not only more secure than proprietary software but allows users more control and customisation over how the software works. By working collaboratively\, libraries could establish community-driven multi-tenant library systems installations using open source software to give them more control over their system security\, to protect their users’ lending data\, and to divest themselves of third-party private library systems companies. Using examples from the Copim and the Open Book Futures project infrastructure\, I’ll show how open source software provides a more secure and more ethical alternative to proprietary software. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSimon Bowie \n\n\n\nCentre for Postdigital Cultures\, Coventry University \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nSimon Bowie is an Open Source Software Developer at the Centre for Postdigital Cultures\, Coventry University\, UK\, where he works on the Open Book Futures project helping to build community-owned and scholar-led open infrastructures for open access book publishing with a particular focus on experimental book publishing. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11.50 \n\n\n\n\n\nAssessing Cyber Resilience in Nigerian Libraries: An Empirical Study of Security Measures\, Threats\, and Preparedness \n\n\n\nLibraries in Nigeria\, like others globally\, are increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats\, compromising the integrity and availability of their digital collections and services.

In many ways\, the pandemic has accelerated the acceptance of remote learning and faster technological advancements. Still\, in other ways\, it has exposed areas of weakness concerning data security/privacy in education and its supply chains. Besides education entities taking up more traditional and resilient security measures/frameworks\, there can also be an approach to deploy innovative technologies such as blockchain or decentralized networks and utilize decentralized digital identities (DID). \n\n\n\nIn the education sector\, digital identities can be used for various purposes such as verifying academic qualifications\, authenticating students and staff\, and managing educational resources. It could also create a secure\, decentralized system for storing and sharing academic research. This would make it easier for researchers to find and access the data they need and would help to prevent fraud. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStefan Kendzierskyj \n\n\n\nMaverick Publishing Specialists \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nStefan Kendzierskyj has an extensive commercial\, consulting\, and strategic leadership background\, holding senior and executive-level positions with technology solution-led companies servicing the publishing\, fintech\, government\, and cybersecurity sectors.Stefan holds a master’s degree in Cybersecurity and is an accomplished author in emerging technology subjects\, such as governance/risk/compliance\, privacy\, blockchain\, self-sovereign identity\, AI\, cyber warfare\, and cyberattacks/threats – with published works through world-renowned publishers such as Springer\, Elsevier\, Taylor & Francis\, IGI\, and World Scientific.His latest research involves GRC frameworks and cybersecurity for ground-to-space satellite systems. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n15.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n15.40 \n\n\n\n\n\nClosing keynote \n\n\n\n\n\nKathleen McEvoy \n\n\n\nThe EveryLibrary Institute \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n13.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nWrap up and close \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLiam Bullingham \n\n\n\nCounter \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nUntil recently\, Liam managed research support in Library and Learning Services at Edge Hill University.
