I wish I had attended about two years ago\, when I first took on this role\, as it would have been even more helpful for me then\, but at least it gave me confidence that I know most of what I need to know\, but also raised a few questions that I want to investigate further.” \n\n\n\n“Very informative and you could see the clear links between the sectors and start to understand where the joined-up ways of working occur.” \n\n\n\n“It was stimulating and refreshing to meet individuals from different sectors and institutions.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\n\nWednesday 20 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\n10:00 \n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration and Coffee \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:20 \n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome and Introduction by the Chair \n\n\n\n\n\nDiana Massam \n\n\n\nJisc \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:30 \n\n\n\n\n\nDiscussion: sharing experiences of working with e-resources \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDiana Massam  \n\n\n\nJisc \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFiona Ainsworth  \n\n\n\nRoyal Botanic Gardens\, Kew \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:50 \n\n\n\n\n\nManaging e-resource content in the online world \n\n\n\nThe importance of journals and e-resources\, and how they are purchased\, promoted and managed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMitchell Dunkley  \n\n\n\nDe Montfort University \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11:20 \n\n\n\n\n\nDiscussion  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11:40 \n\n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12:00 \n\n\n\n\n\nThe business of e-resources publishing \n\n\n\nThe key processes within commercial e-resources publishing\, including launch\, economics\, editorial and marketing\, pricing models\, licensing and delivering electronically. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNicola Davies  \n\n\n\nMicrobiology Society \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12:30 \n\n\n\n\n\nDiscussion \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12:50 \n\n\n\n\n\nLunch \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n13:30 \n\n\n\n\n\nManaging e-book content \n\n\n\nThe importance of e-books and how they are purchased\, promoted and managed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGavin Brindley  \n\n\n\nCoventry University  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n14:00 \n\n\n\n\n\nE-books: a round table led by the Chair \n\n\n\nA forum in which to explore e-books – topics\, problems\, issues and opportunities for the community. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDiana Massam  \n\n\n\nJisc \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFiona Ainsworth \n\n\n\nRoyal Botanic Gardens\, Kew \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n14:30 \n\n\n\n\n\nBreak  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n14:45 \n\n\n\n\n\nIntermediaries and their service \n\n\n\nThe development of intermediaries\, the role of the intermediary\, and a review of the new players and the growing range of online access services offered. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRichard Bramwell \n\n\n\nEBSCO Information Services \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n15:15 \n\n\n\n\n\nDiscussion  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n15:35 \n\n\n\n\n\nReview \n\n\n\nA review of the first discussion\, an overview of UKSG and a final summing up and close of seminar \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n16:00 \n\n\n\n\n\nClose of seminar \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n£ 185.00 \n\n\n\n+ £ 37.00 VAT \n\n\n\nMember \n\n\n\n\nClosed\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n£ 235.00 \n\n\n\n+  £ 47.00 VAT \n\n\n\nNon-Member \n\n\n\n\nClosed\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNB: UKSG reserves the right to alter or vary the programme due to events or circumstances beyond its reasonable control without being obliged to refund monies. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact \n\n\n\nGeneral queries – events@uksg.org \n\n\n\nPlease take a look at our code of conduct \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCancellations \n\n\n\nBy Friday 17 May 2019 – full refundFrom Saturday 18 May 2019 – no refund

SUMMARY:Free UKSG webinar - Partnership working at The Hive: opening up access and opportunity
DESCRIPTION:Register for this recording \nYou may still register for the recording of the webinar by visiting the GoToWebinar site. \nSlides \nSarah Pittaway has kindly agreed to make her slides available.  You may download them from here.  Please use the correct attribution if you wish to refer to them. \n  \nUKSG’s vision is to “improve the flow of knowledge and the information experience of scholars and researchers”.  It’s all too easy to think solely of those scholars and researchers who are working inside of academia\, in Higher Education.  But we all have a duty to think beyond this and consider how we can open up access to institutions and the knowledge they provide to the wider community. \nAs Europe’s first integrated public and university library\, The Hive in Worcester aims to do just this\, opening up opportunities and breaking down barriers. \nThis webinar will cover some of the practicalities of how such a shared service operates\, including: systems integration; budgets\, acquisitions and subscriptions; licences and walk-in access; staff and specialist support; and\, spaces.   \nRecognising that not everyone can have a library quite like The Hive\, it will also reflect on some lessons and applicability.  What can others learn from us?  For example\, how are you catering to diverse groups?  What barriers are there that needn’t be?  Can you partner even in much smaller ways to open up access? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning outcomes \n\n\n\n\n\nParticipants will gain: \n\n\n\n\nan understanding of how a shared model like The Hive works\, both in terms of high level aims and aspirations\, and everyday practicalities\n\n\n\nan awareness of discussions and questions to consider in relation to partnerships and widening participation within their own institutions and practices\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSubject level and previous knowledge required \n\n\n\n\n\nIntroductory and non-intensive\, no previous knowledge or experience required. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\n\n\nThis is a free webinar and is open to members and non-members of UKSG alike.  It will be recorded and the speaker will use a web cam. \n\n\n\nTo register\, please visit the Citrix/GoToWebinar site.

The transfer of metadata from these institutions is done through a number of regional\, national\, domain and thematic aggregators. To have their collections published online\, we have developed a data model\, Europeana Data Model\, that brings together specifications of other metadata formats\, adds contextual information to the records and contributes to their publication as linked open data. \n\n\n\nThis session will cover briefly our recommendations for metadata quality\, the possibilities of enhancement of certain fields and the various data re-use opportunities.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\n\n\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\n\n\n\n\nLearning outcomes \n\n\n\n\n\nThe expected outcome of this webinar is for participants to learn about Europeana Collections and its approach on publishing digital collections online. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSubject level and previous knowledge required \n\n\n\n\n\nIntroductory and non-intensive\, minimal previous knowledge of Europeana required. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\n\n\nThis is a free webinar and is open to members and non-members of UKSG alike.  It will be recorded and the speaker will use a web cam. \n\n\n\nTo register\, please visit the Citrix/GoToWebinar site.

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.

You may download them below or view them on SlideShare. Please use the correct attribution if you wish to refer to them. \n  \n89% of survey respondents would recommend this webinar. \n***** \nIn this webinar\, David Walters and Christopher Daley from Brunel University London explore the complexities of the current UK open access (OA) policy landscape and examine the concurrent emergence of open science services which aim to provide global OA data. Using the results of their recent study\, they will consider whether the global data on open access activity offered by services such as Sherpa REF\, CORE and Unpaywall can enhance publication data held within institutional systems. These results will assist discussion of how local\, institutional systems may be able to provide a more complete picture of collaborative OA activity through greater interoperability with global data services.  \n\n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDavid Walters \n\n\n\nOpen Access Officer \n\n\n\nBrunel University London \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChristopher Daley \n\n\n\nResearch Development Officer  \n\n\n\nBrunel University London \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDavid is the Open Access Officer at Brunel University London based within the Scholarly Communication & Rights Management team.

SUMMARY:UKSG Negotiation Skills for Librarians: London
DESCRIPTION:A highly practical one-day workshop developing knowledge\, skills and confidence to support academic librarians and consortia members engaged in negotiating with publishers and other vendors for electronic resources.  Librarians will be able to apply what they learn immediately to ongoing and future negotiations\, both new deals and renewals \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen\n\n\n\n\nThursday\, June 21\, 2018 – 10:00 BSTtoThursday\, June 21\, 2018 – 16:00 BST \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhere\n\n\n\n\nThe King’s FundNo. 11 Cavendish Square (Maxwell Room)LondonW1G 0AN \n\n\n\nTel.: 020 7307 2474 (Reception) \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshop Summary \n\n\n\nA highly practical one-day workshop developing knowledge\, skills and confidence to support academic librarians and consortia members engaged in negotiating with publishers and other vendors for electronic resources.  Librarians will be able to apply what they learn immediately to ongoing and future negotiations\, both new deals and renewals. \n\n\n\nContext for this Workshop \n\n\n\n•    Electronic resources continue to bring major change to the provision of teaching and research information\, hugely impacting the role and responsibilities of librarians. \n\n\n\n•    The rise of the licence\, the demise of the ‘list price’\, tailored deals\, new rights and responsibilities\, new users\, and new ways of delivering\, using and sharing information are all part of the evolving complexity. \n\n\n\n•    At the same time\, some things have not changed: publishers still seek to maximise usage\, market presence and income\, whilst libraries and consortia seek to best serve their users\, often within the constraints of rising costs and pressured budgets. \n\n\n\n•    In order to navigate these challenges – and make the most of the considerable opportunities – negotiation has become an essential part of the acquisition process. \n\n\n\n•    It follows that libraries and consortia need staff with solid negotiation skills\, and yet good quality training in this area is noticeably absent from LIS qualifications. \n\n\n\n•    This practical and popular course has been created to meet this need\, informing and empowering librarians\, growing their confidence\, knowledge and skills\, and helping them to get the best from every negotiation. \n\n\n\nIs this Workshop for You? \n\n\n\nNegotiation Skills for Librarians has been written for serials and acquisitions librarians and consortia members involved in the acquisition of electronic resources in academic institutions or on behalf of academic consortia*.  Written at an introductory-intermediate level\, the workshop is for those who are new to negotiations or who have some negotiation experience and are seeking a ‘refresher’ and/or additional tips\, skills and knowledge.  It will also benefit those being trained to undertake purchasing roles in the future.  More experienced negotiators are welcome to attend but are asked to be aware of the intended level of this workshop.  The workshop focuses on e-journals and other serially published content (although some of the learning will support eBook/database acquisition). \n\n\n\n *Although the primary focus of the course is on e-resources acquisition in an academic environment\, information/knowledge workers in public libraries and corporations are welcome.  Equally\, although the course is designed primarily for those new or relatively new to publisher negotiations\, more experienced negotiators have found it to be of great benefit. \n\n\n\nBrief History \n\n\n\nThis workshop has been delivered to library and consortia staff in the UK and Eire (on behalf of UKSG)\, continental Europe and the Middle East since 2008.  Of the 450+ librarians who have taken the workshop to date\, 100% would recommend it to colleagues and the vast majority rated their learning experience as either ‘Excellent’ or ‘Good’. \n\n\n\n(A five-week online course has been developed to meet demand from international colleagues who cannot attend the in-person workshop: please contact: sarah@sarahdurrant.co.uk for further information.) \n\n\n\nWorkshop Goals \n\n\n\n•    Learn proven\, highly practical negotiation skills and knowledge which you can use immediately in your professional life•    Learn The Four Cornerstones – four key strategies which underpin all successful negotiations•    Practice The Seven Habits of Effective Negotiation – intelligent negotiation tactics which will help you get the best deal possible\, on pricing and on terms•    Apply these skills and knowledge to resolve a range of mini-negotiation situations•    Learn Six Powerful Questions to help you keep negotiations on track – and a five-step negotiation model recommended by the FBI!•    Share your negotiation questions\, challenges and concerns in a confidential and supportive environment•    Build your confidence in relation to publisher negotiations•    Learn a powerful model for developing your personal resilience\, a capacity proven to enhance negotiation abilities and outcomes. \n\n\n\nWorkshop Format \n\n\n\nIn common with all Lead From Within learning\, this workshop is lively\, engaging and interactive to create the richest learning experience possible.

DESCRIPTION: This UKSG event was live streamed and recorded courtesy of IET.tv – the Institution of Engineering and Technology’s video production service. … \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, November 15\, 2017 – 09:00 GMTtoWednesday\, November 15\, 2017 – 18:00 GMT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhere\n\n\n\n\nGrange Tower Bridge Hotel (Beaumont and Sidney Suites\, Floor 1)45 Prescot StreetLondonE1 8GP \n\n\n\nTel.: 020 7959 5000 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThis UKSG event was live streamed and recorded courtesy of IET.tv – the Institution of Engineering and Technology’s video production service. Click here to access the recordings. \n\n\n\nShrinking horizons? Scholarly communication in an anti-globalisation environment\n\n\n\nIn recent years the globalisation and open dissemination of research has been a hot topic in the knowledge community – exploring issues such as how we support research dissemination and consumption across borders through the lenses of increasing mobility\, technological innovation and diverse global open access\, open data and open science agendas.  In contrast the last 12 months have been characterised by a contraction in both political and economic terms.  What is the impact of government policy\, politics and the funding environment on the vitality of the scholarly communication ecosystem?The 2017 UKSG One-Day Conference brings together expert perspectives from the UK and beyond to explore how the world of scholarly communication as we know it is changing in response to the huge political upheaval of our time. \n\n\n\nProgramme \n\n\n\n09.30    Registration and coffee \n\n\n\n10.00    Welcome and introduction by the ChairKate Price\, University Librarian\, Queen Mary University of London10.15    State of the sector: current issues and themes in UK higher education Ant Bagshaw\, Deputy Director\, Wonkhe \n\n\n\nAbstract: What do changes in higher education policy mean for scholarly communications?  Ant Bagshaw from HE think tank Wonkhe will explore the changes afoot in UK HE and identify trends and themes impacting universities.  He will try to make sense of the complexity by exploring competition\, compliance culture and the prospect of further change in the future.10.45    What does Brexit mean for the UK universities?John Ferguson\, Director of Global Forecasting\, The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) \n\n\n\nAbstract: Brexit will dominate the outlook for the UK economy in the coming years.  Negotiations are currently ongoing\, but what type of Brexit will we have?  Are we headed for a ‘hard’ Brexit or a transitional agreement?  How will this impact the UK economy over the next five years and what are the risks to this forecast?  Brexit also poses challenges for the UK university sector\, especially related to funding uncertainty and expectations over student enrolments.  However\, there will also be opportunities.  How these are exploited will be the determining factor of Brexit’s impact on UK higher education institutions.11.15    Coffee11.45    ‘The empires of the future are the empires of the mind’: defining the role of libraries in the Open Science landscape  Paul Ayris\, Pro-Vice-Provost (UCL Library Services)\, University College London \n\n\n\nAbstract: This paper looks at the emerging issues around Open Science and identifies what the role for libraries can be.  It does this by looking at four areas: Open Access\, Research Data Management\, the Library as publisher and Citizen Science.  The paper concludes by painting a picture for the Library full of opportunity\, but one where current systems and practices need to change.12.15    Putting developing country research production and dissemination into the global context Anne Powell\, Programme Manager\, Information Access and Publisher Liaison\, INASPSioux Cumming\, Programme Manager\, Journals Online\, INASP \n\n\n\nAbstract: Many of the world’s most pressing problems are faced by people in the Global South but the international research and publishing landscape is dominated by the Global North. For 25 years INASP has been working with partners in both North and South to redress this imbalance. This presentation will share INASP’s work\, both in facilitating access to international literature for Southern researchers and in supporting the visibility and credibility of Southern journals. \n\n\n\n12.45    Lunch13.45    Open Research: from the perspective of Wellcome  Robert Kiley\, Head of Open Research\, Wellcome Trust \n\n\n\nAbstract: In this session Robert Kiley will look at the current state of open access to publications and the challenges which still persist.  Using Wellcome as a case study\, Robert will outline the various approaches Wellcome has adopted to provide Wellcome researchers with a range of publishing options\, and offer some early thoughts on future directions.  Looking beyond publications\, the talk will also discuss Wellcome’s approach to outputs sharing and the challenge of aligning incentives to promote the sharing of research outputs.    14.15    Local\, national and global research collaborations: multiple choices driven by funding\, friendships or facts?Lesley Thompson\, Director of Academic and Government Strategic Alliance in the UK\, Elsevier \n\n\n\nAbstract: The world of research is naturally collaborative – researchers build collaborations and networks naturally – but it is also intensely competitive.  At a time when the UK considers its future international relationships post-Brexit and the government looks to strengthen the UK’s economy in part through research and investing in regional strengths including Science and Innovation audits and City Deals\, how do individual researchers\, universities or the UK make the right choices for collaboration going forward?  Would you follow the funding\, call a friend or examine the evidence?  Some thoughts to be considered will be discussed in this presentation.14.45    Shrinking horizons – or pushing boundaries?  Janet Peters\, Director of University Libraries and University Librarian\, Cardiff University \n\n\n\nAbstract: The unique context of Cardiff University as the only Russell Group university in Wales and a member of both the Wales HE Libraries Forum (WHELF) and the GW4 (Great Western Four) consortium is explained\, with the challenges and opportunities that this brings.  An overview of the current benefits from collaborative working\, and some of the dilemmas faced\, is provided\, with suggestions on how services might need to push their boundaries by thinking and acting more tactically. 15.15    Tea15.45    Panel session with questionschaired by Kate Price\, University Librarian\, Queen Mary University of London16.45    Closing remarks followed by drinks reception18.30    Close \n\n\n\nVenue \n\n\n\nGrange Tower Bridge Hotel (Beaumont and Sidney Suites\, Floor 1)45 Prescot StreetLondonE1 8GP \n\n\n\nTel.: 020 7959 5000 \n\n\n\nFee\n\n\n\nUKSG members: £190.00 + £38.00 VAT [20%] (total £228.00)Non-members: £240.00 + £48.00 VAT [20%] (total £288.00) \n\n\n\nThe fee includes refreshments\, lunch and the drinks reception. \n\n\n\nHow to book\n\n\n\nBooking for this event has now closed.  For further information please contact Karen Sadler. \n\n\n\nVenue location details will be sent with confirmation of booking. \n\n\n\nCancellations\n\n\n\nBy Tuesday 7 November 2017 – full refundFrom Wednesday 8 November 2017 – no refund \n\n\n\nNB:  UKSG reserves the right to alter or vary the programme due to events or circumstances beyond its reasonable control without being obliged to refund monies.

\n\n\n\n\n\nNegotiation Skills for Librarians has been written for serials and acquisitions librarians and consortia members involved in the acquisition of electronic resources in academic institutions or on behalf of academic consortia*.  Written at an introductory-intermediate level\, the workshop is for those who are new to negotiations or who have some negotiation experience and are seeking a ‘refresher’ and/or additional tips\, skills and knowledge.  It will also benefit those being trained to undertake purchasing roles in the future.  More experienced negotiators are welcome to attend but are asked to be aware of the intended level of this workshop.  The workshop focuses on e-journals and other serially published content (although some of the learning will support eBook/database acquisition). \n\n\n\n *Although the primary focus of the course is on e-resources acquisition in an academic environment\, information/knowledge workers in public libraries and corporations are welcome.  Equally\, although the course is designed primarily for those new or relatively new to publisher negotiations\, more experienced negotiators have found it to be of great benefit. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBrief History \n\n\n\n\n\nThis workshop has been delivered to library and consortia staff in the UK and Eire (on behalf of UKSG)\, continental Europe and the Middle East since 2008.  Of the 450+ librarians who have taken the workshop to date\, 100% would recommend it to colleagues and the vast majority rated their learning experience as either ‘Excellent’ or ‘Good’. \n\n\n\n(A five-week online course has been developed to meet demand from international colleagues who cannot attend the in-person workshop: please contact: sarah@sarahdurrant.co.uk for further information.) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshop Goals \n\n\n\n\n\n•    Learn proven\, highly practical negotiation skills and knowledge which you can use immediately in your professional life•    Learn The Four Cornerstones – four key strategies which underpin all successful negotiations•    Practice The Seven Habits of Effective Negotiation – intelligent negotiation tactics which will help you get the best deal possible\, on pricing and on terms•    Apply these skills and knowledge to resolve a range of mini-negotiation situations•    Learn Six Powerful Questions to help you keep negotiations on track – and a five-step negotiation model recommended by the FBI!•    Share your negotiation questions\, challenges and concerns in a confidential and supportive environment•    Build your confidence in relation to publisher negotiations•    Learn a powerful model for developing your personal resilience\, a capacity proven to enhance negotiation abilities and outcomes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshop Format \n\n\n\n\n\nIn common with all Lead From Within learning\, this workshop is lively\, engaging and interactive to create the richest learning experience possible.

SUMMARY:UKSG Forum: London
DESCRIPTION:The innovation game: breaking the rules\n\n\n\nFree to UKSG members\n\n\n\nNow in its fourth year\, the UKSG Forum is the essential ‘London-based pre-Christmas’ event in the scholarly communications calendar.  Supporting UKSG’s mission ‘to connect the knowledge community and encourage the exchange of ideas on scholarly communication’\, the UKSG Forum offers short sessions on best practice and interesting projects.  This highly anticipated meeting is free for UKSG members to attend\, attracting nearly 400 delegates and offering a comprehensive exhibition\, together with ample networking opportunities. \n\n\n\nWith thanks to the Forum’s generous sponsors:\n\n\n\nPremium \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nStandard \n\n\n\n      \n\n\n\nThe innovation game: breaking the rules – #UKSGforum16\n\n\n\nThis year the Forum’s focus is on innovation.  Not all invention comes out of the ‘light bulb’ moment\, often innovation is born out of periods of adversity where bending or breaking our preconceived ideas is the only way forward.  In such environments\, new business models\, new workflows\, new offers\, new collaborations can form to overcome such barriers and UKSG Forum delegates want to hear about them. \n\n\n\nPROGRAMME\n\n\n\n09:15   Registration \n\n\n\n09:45   Welcome and introduction by David Summers and Yann Amouroux\,UKSG Forum Working Group Co-Chairs\n\n\n\n10:00-10:30 Systems and Technology\n\n\n\n\nTracy Gardner (Simon Inger Consulting): Time to ditch the RDS?
