SUMMARY:FREE UKSG webinar -  Digital Scholarship and the Future of the Book
DESCRIPTION:Scholarly authors are increasingly using digital tools. They want to produce enhanced ebooks and interactive scholarly works\, but these tend not to fit into existing publisher and librarian workflows. Fulcrum is a platform developed at the University of Michigan that supports authors who want to push the boundaries of the book. The University of Michigan Press Ebook Collection (UMP EBC) includes an increasing number of enhanced titles and takes full advantage of the rich features on the Fulcrum platform. Thanks to the support of purchasing libraries\, UMP EBC is able to sustain the publication of new forms of scholarship\, including open access titles\, and sustain the open-source\, community-based scholarly infrastructure. In this webinar attendees will learn about this new form of scholarship\, including how it is being sustained by the community via UMP EBC and Fulcrum\, and walk away with inspired to sustain this burgeoning community.   \nRegister for this recording \n\nYou may still register for the recording of the webinar by visiting the GoToWebinar site. \n\nSlides \n\nOur speakers have kindly agreed to make their slides available.

SUMMARY:FREE UKSG webinar - Preprints are Changing the Landscape
DESCRIPTION:This webinar consists of three presentations: \nPreprints: where are we now? by Jessica Polka \n\nWhat are preprints\, and why are they growing so rapidly in many disciplines? Focusing on the life sciences\, I’ll provide an overview of the kinetics of their adoption as well as key policy developments by funders\, universities\, journals\, and infrastructure providers. Drawing on a recent survey of preprint server practices (https://zenodo.org/record/3626770)\, I’ll describe of the current landscape of preprint servers and discuss considerations in selecting among them. \n\n  \n\nAn academic’s experience of preprints by Stephen Royle \n\nPreprints are changing the way we do science. They have positively disrupted scientific publishing and shaken up other many aspects of the research enterprise such as research evaluation during hiring and promotion. Stephen will talk about his experiences with bioRxiv\, the main preprint server in biology. His research group deposited their first preprint on bioRxiv in Feb 2014 and they now preprint all of their work prior to journal submission. \n\n  \n\nPreprints – Finding their place in scholarly research by Judy Luther \n\nThe rapid adoption of preprints across disciplines has shifted the landscape of scholarly publishing.  Preprints are part of a larger transition to include born digital works emerging from the scholarly workflow\, challenging assumptions\, altering reference points and raising questions about processes. \n\n  \n\nRegister for this recording \n\nYou may still register for the recording of the webinar by visiting the GoToWebinar site. \n\nSlides \n\nOur speakers have kindly agreed to make their slides available.

Prior to that he held a number of senior roles within diverse university libraries\, including the University of Liverpool and Liverpool John Moores University. Andrew was Chair of UKSG between 2018 and 2022\, and has been Vice-Chair of SCONUL since December 2021. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nThe price of doing the same old thing is far higher than the price of change \n\n\n\nTransformative Agreements are shaking up the traditional journal businesses. The subscription model\, though it has proved persistent and resistant\, struggles to be relevant in a digital world and is under pressure from advances in OA publishing. On the plus side: subscriptions provide a stable business framework; budgetary predictability for academic libraries; a means of spreading scholarly communication costs globally across academic institutions. Journal publishers have come to rely on upfront payments for publishing services. Under these conditions\, our research landscape has thrived. \n\n\n\nHowever change is needed. Exploding levels of research is just one of the factors that has put the subscription model under pressure; library budgets cannot keep pace with academic taskmasters cracking the whip to ‘Publish or Perish’.  Transformative Agreements provide an umbrella under which several forms of business-model metamorphosis are occurring. This talk describes how at the Microbiology Society\, we calculated the price of change against the price of staying as we were; what guiding principles and vision drove our decisions\, and the way in which we approached and executed changes designed to transition to a business model fit for purpose in the 21st century. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGaynor Redvers-Mutton \n\n\n\nAssociate Director Biochemical Society/Portland Press Ltd \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nGaynor is committed to develolping sustainable and fair routes enabling authors the choice of not for profit journals in which to publish their research. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11.00 \n\n\n\n\n\nWhat it means to be transformative: a faster path to an open future \n\n\n\nPlan S and the drive towards a full and immediate open access future has put a sharp focus on the role research publishing and research publishers can play in speeding up the transition to full OA. This talk will explore the concept of transformative publishing\, transformative journals and transformative read and publish deals in moving us towards an open sustainable research environment. \n\n\n\nBringing together case studies/ live examples of those already making changes to workflows\, this session will explore examples of current impact and take up\, discuss what this could look like in practical terms for stakeholders and help address the main challenges stakeholders are facing in order to be able to move to a fully OA world. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCarrie Webster \n\n\n\nSpringer Nature \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nTransformation in the era of Plan S: Challenges and opportunities in the US \n\n\n\nWhen Plan S was launched in September of 2018\, many observers opined that the U.S. would never embrace a transition of the existing journal literature to immediate OA\, dooming to failure the Plan S vision.  Eighteen months later\, and how things have changed!  Or\, at least\, how they are changing.  This talk will describe recent developments and current prospects for OA transformation in the US\, highlighting the challenges\, opportunities\, and diversity of approaches taking shape across the pond.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIvy Anderson \n\n\n\nCalifornia Digital Libraries \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nIvy Anderson is Associate Executive Director and Director of Collections at the California Digital Library\, where she oversees a broad range of shared collections activities on behalf of the ten-campus University of California system\, including primary responsibility for systemwide publisher negotiations.

A proof of concept decolonising the curriculum project \n\n\n\nA group of three are currently undertaking a proof of concept project by reviewing the data captured for the CLA Licence of our key digitised readings in 2018/19. The data will be reviewed\, and authors tagged for gender\, ethnicity/nationality and geographically where titles were published as well as the publishers. The findings will be sent to relevant departments to take into consideration when reviewing their curriculum and to contextualise the debate about existing attainment gap/decolonising the curriculum. The presentation will be on the general findings of this projects and the impact if any on departments and possible next steps. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nElizabeth Charles \n\n\n\nBirkbeck\, University of London \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nElizabeth has worked in the higher education sector and in Library and information for more than 20 years. Her areas of interest are digital learning\, digital/information literacy and widening participation; where these are employed in her current post as Assistant Director of Library Services (E-Services\, Systems and Collections) at Birkbeck\, University of London. She has been involved with the Association for Learning Technology since 2013 and became a Trustee in 2017. She is actively involved in TEL developments in her institution\, working with academics and the Bloomsbury Learning Exchange consortium. One of her current areas of interest is working with an academic research centre on the ‘Decolonising the Curriculum’ at Birkbeck\, alongside undertaking a proof of concept project in the Library and has recently had published an article on “Decolonizing the curriculum” at https://insights.uksg.org/articles/10.1629/uksg.475/ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n09.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nPractising inclusivity and diversity – reflecting your student cohort in hiring \n\n\n\nRepresentation in libraries matters.  Recent research on the experience of BAME staff in academic and research libraries found that “that lack of diversity in the library profession was not being acknowledged\, nor taken seriously\, by the senior management of academic and research libraries.” This perpetuates inequality within librarianship and leads to our failing our customers.  Diverse teams perform better\, have a better understanding of their customers they serve and are more innovative and creative.  In this talk I will share data on diversity at the University of Salford\, what this tells us and the actions we are taking in response. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDavid Clay \n\n\n\nUniversity of Salford \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nDavid Clay is University Librarian at the University of Salford\, providing strategic leadership and vision for libraries\, learning spaces and print services. He previously served as Associate University Librarian (Learning and Research Support) at the University of Salford where he was responsible for developing services in support of teaching\, learning and research and on development of the library’s collections.

It also calls for the de-centring of Whiteness in the curriculum as well as on the bookshelves. This presentation will highlight the work so far\, which includes: the liberate our degrees book suggestions and collection\, working alongside academic departments to decolonise the curriculum\, collaborating with teaching staff on inclusive reading lists using Talisplayer\, and delivering workshops covering subjects like – Resistance researching\, and Decolonizing research methods. \n\n\n\nResources \n\n\n\nRecorded Presentation \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarilyn Clarke \n\n\n\nGoldsmiths\, University of London \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10.30 \n\n\n\n\n\nRefreshments & exhibition viewing \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n11.00 \n\n\n\n\n\nBreakouts – Group A \n\n\n\nBreakout session descriptions \n\n\n\nRecorded Presentations available below  \n\n\n\nThe research technologist – A valuable allrounder in any academic team – Andy Tattersall\,  The University of Sheffield  \n\n\n\nResources \n\n\n\nRecorded Presentation: The research technologist – A valuable allrounder in any… \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12.00 \n\n\n\n\n\nCommunity and university owned Open Infrastructure: Results from the MIT Landscape Scan \n\n\n\nWith increasing industry consolidation around researcher and publisher services\, there are growing concerns that commercial and proprietary players will “lock in” the entire research life cycle. As a result more universities and non-profits are building platforms for the publication\, preservation\, and dissemination of research works from articles to monographs and beyond. In 2018\, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation funded a project with the MIT Press and the MIT Knowledge Futures Group to conduct a landscape scan of open source platforms. John Maxwell of Simon Fraser University undertook this survey which resulted in an in-depth examination of several dozen open source platforms. This poster highlights key findings\, including challenges around sustainability and scalability; strategies for effective collaboration; and potential next steps. \n\n\n\nResources \n\n\n\nRecorded Presentation \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHeather Staines \n\n\n\nKnowledge Futures/MIT \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nHeather Staines is Senior Consultant at Delta Think and Director of Community Engagement for the OA Data Analytics Tool.

Now that most books are accessible online\, the building once dedicated to silence and study is increasingly turning into a lively public gathering place—when it’s not disappearing altogether.” \n\n\n\nSince before the turn of the millennium\, I have been a “get rid of print” evangelist – libraries and library vendors should just work together on finding the best management and discovery options and users would happily follow……… or not\, as it turns out. Library users are not that easy to sway\, and it seems that despite a marked global decline in circulation\, the joy of handling a physical book will be here for a good while still.  This poses certain problems for many libraries\, as the public perception\, and especially the perception of funders\, has been swayed by constant messages like the one above. Now physical space is being repurposed for events\, exhibitions and other cultural activities. In some countries it is also increasingly difficult to secure funding for “behind the scenes” work like material handling. \n\n\n\nBut with patrons still wanting a good selection of fresh new books\, many libraries find themselves between a rock and a hard place. Facing this\, the two biggest libraries in Denmark\, Aarhus and Copenhagen\, in collaboration with Lyngsoe systems developed a modern logistic management system much like the warehouse management system which controls the flow of goods in a supermarket: Items must be displayed attractively\, and alerts sent to the system if replenishments are needed\, goods that doesn’t move well needs to be weeded out and each branch have a profile mirroring the needs of the individual communities. All the way through all items are documented and checked. Every item can be traced at any given time. The library knows exactly where a particular set of DVD’s are. \n\n\n\n\n\nHelle Lauridsen \n\n\n\nLyngsoe Systems \n\n\n\nHenrik Kjelgaard \n\n\n\nLyngsoe Systems \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12.20 \n\n\n\n\n\nEvidence and emotion: establishing a workplace journal club to share knowledge\, experience and camaraderie \n\n\n\nContinuing professional development is hugely beneficial to individual and institutional learning\, but restricted budgets\, lack of time\, and busy workloads are common barriers to participation. But what are librarians good at? Finding research literature. And what do librarians need a lot of? Coffee. \n\n\n\nA journal club creates an opportunity to engage with scholarly work and share personal practices in an informal and democratic space. By bringing together the evidence and creating protected time to air reflections and concerns\, a journal club can contribute to a sense of shared understanding and solidarity. I will share practical guidance on establishing and managing your own journal club. \n\n\n\n\n\nHannah Hickman \n\n\n\nAston University \n\n\n\nSee Biography\nHannah has recently moved to a research support role\, having previously worked as a liaison librarian and in community engagement.

For those on the inside\, with the relevant skills and resources\, it is a radically exciting time. \n\n\n\nWhat about the rest of us\, the “99%” if you will? In this presentation I will talk about how Gale’s Digital Scholar Lab is designed to make elements of Digital Humanities accessible to all levels of users. In particular\, the new “teaching layer” introduces pedagogical tools that will bring Text and Data Mining into the classroom. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeth Cayley \n\n\n\nVP\, Primary Sources Gale\, A Cengage Company \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nSeth Cayley is the Vice President for Gale Primary Sources at Gale\, a Cengage company.

As societies seek to transition to Open Access (OA) there is new opportunity to work together to achieve shared strategies. In 2019 new principles to inform the development of transformative agreements were jointly developed by representatives of library consortia and society publishers as part of the SPA OPS project. A model transformative agreement toolkit built on these principles was developed\, and then piloted by societies and consortia in a number of countries. This presentation will provide a first overview of those pilots and lessons learned. \n\n\n\nResources \n\n\n\nRecorded Presentation \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlicia Wise \n\n\n\nInformation Power \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.

By offering services and tools to engage\, support\, and promote undergraduate work\, the library plays a key role in attracting and retaining an institution’s best and brightest students. In this talk\, a librarian from a small arts and humanities institution in the U.S. explains how library services and an institutional repository work in tandem to create experiential learning opportunities for undergraduates while simultaneously highlighting their research. Attendees will come away with strategic lessons to promote the originality and academic enterprise of your students and emphasize the library’s role in cultivating a mission of undergraduate success. \n\n\n\nResources \n\n\n\nPresentation available on the Linfield College website \n\n\n\n\n\nKathleen Spring \n\n\n\nLinfield College \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n17.20 \n\n\n\n\n\n“Trigger happy users” – PDA in a cross-Disciplinary research Institution \n\n\n\nFor modern libraries of today\, it is common knowledge that book collections are evolved and maintained more efficiently by using Patron Driven Acquisitions (PDA). The University Library of Southern Denmark is a “late mover” in this area – to the extent of not having a full-scale PDA system in service yet.                    \n\n\n\nIn our presentation and poster\, we will share some thoughts on why this is no simple matter for a university library like us\, catering to curricular and research needs of a medium sized\, cross-disciplinary research institution in a non-English-speaking country.

Often at the beginning of this process\, a bold approach is needed to break existing silos\, champion inclusion\, take new approaches and set the overall direction. This talk will focus on how we are developing a culture of experimentation and inclusion at the University of York Library & Archives\, and what can be done to make a sectoral difference. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMasud Khokhar \n\n\n\nUniversity of York \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nMasud is the University Librarian and Keeper of the Brotherton Collection at the University of Leeds.

In the speaker’s situatedness as a scholar-activist\, he will draw on his heretic attempts to engender pedagogies of disruption in the realisation of the dual mandate of Global Youth Work; especially in decolonising the curriculum and supporting action based on social justice. \n\n\n\nIn sharing his work in active advocacy that brings academics\, students\, policy makers and practitioners together\, to develop curriculum currency and maintain a constant dialogue between theory and practice\, the speaker will draw on his work both in England and The Gambia\, in setting up a journal that promotes critical Southern voices\, setting up a library with colleagues from De Montfort University in The Gambia\, convening the annual “questioning the logic of the system” conference\, and in generating counter-orthodoxy spaces\, both in theory and practice. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMomodou Sallah \n\n\n\nDe Montfort University \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nDr Momodou Sallah is the Director\, Centre for Academic Innovation\, and a Reader in Globalisation and Global Youth Work at De Montfort University\, UK.

SUMMARY:Free UKSG webinar - Better together: building services for public good on top of content from the global network of open repositories
DESCRIPTION:CORE hosts the world’s largest collection of open access full texts\, offering seamless\, unrestricted access to research for citizens\, researchers\, libraries\, software developers\, funders and others. CORE’s aggregated content comes from thousands of institutional and subject repositories as well as journals and covers all research disciplines. In January 2019\, CORE has hit the mark of 10 million monthly active users (10.41 million users). In September 2019\, core.ac.uk has made it to the top 5k websites globally by user engagement as measured by the independent Alexa Rank\, making it clearly one of the world’s most widely used Open Access services. \nIn this talk\, Petr and Nancy will explain the role of CORE in the open science ecosystem. They will introduce the solutions CORE offers for improving the delivery of research literature\, including tools for discovering freely available copies of papers that might be behind publishers’ paywalls as well as a recommender system for open access literature. The use of CORE data to monitor compliance with open access policies has also recently received attention. The presenters will then reflect on the challenges in the sector and share their experience of building value-added services for the society on top of open content offered by libraries and their affiliated institutional repositories and open access journals. \nRegister for this recording \nYou may still register for the recording of the webinar by visiting the GoToWebinar site.  \nSlides \nPetr Knoth and Nancy Pontika have kindly agreed to make their slides available after their presentation. You may download them from here. Please use the correct attribution if you wish to refer to them. \nQ&A \nPlease\, find here the Q&A document that our speakers have kindly put together. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Shifting power centres in scholarly communications - The One Day Conference 2019
DESCRIPTION:A joint UKSG/ALPSP One Day Conference: The pace of change in our sector has accelerated – and that change has also become more wide-reaching. We are moving beyond the “fall out” from the digital revolution – and its implications for user behaviours\, customer expectations\, product formats and business models – into a much bigger shift\, where established roles and accepted models are being questioned. Boundaries are blurring\, with funders and universities taking greater ownership of how research is communicated\, and publishers and libraries exploring new areas in which they can provide services and support. Where does all of this change leave researchers – are they already realising new benefits\, or are they suffering from having one foot in the old world and one in the new? What will happen next\, and how should scholarly publishers and librarians prepare? \n\n\n\nEvent summary\n\n\n\nBookings have now closed for this event if you would like to be added to the waitlist please register here  \n\n\n\nShifting power centres in scholarly communications: Implications and future roles for libraries and publishers. \n\n\n\nThis year’s One-Day Conference is a partnership between UKSG and ALPSP\, two organizations well placed to understand and address the scholarly communications’ community’s needs and concerns in this rapidly evolving ecosystem. The event promises strategic insight\, practical takeaways and robust discussion among research funders\, academics\, librarians and publishers.

SUMMARY:UKSG Introduction to E-Resources
DESCRIPTION:Course summary\nChairs: Diana Massam\, Jisc and Fiona Ainsworth\, Royal Botanic Gardens\, Kew \n\nThis one-day seminar aims to present a practical introductory overview of all aspects of e-resources management\, encompassing e-journals\, e-books and bibliographic and full-text databases. \n\nThe emphasis is on developing a sound basic understanding of the details of e-resources handling in order to promote efficient and informed working practices.  A wide range of day-to-day issues will be covered\, with time devoted to recognising and resolving the problems that can arise at the boundaries between publishers\, intermediaries and libraries\, and addressing business models such as open access.  In addition\, the seminar will provide a forum for a group discussion on the current issues and opportunities offered by e-books. \n\nDelegates will be able to air and exchange views in the discussion session after each presentation. \n\n\nWhy you should attend \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“I thought that the course was very comprehensive\, and was a great introduction. 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“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“It was stimulating and refreshing to meet individuals from different sectors and institutions.”

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. \n\nSlides \n\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\n  \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. \n\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. \n\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.   \n\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?

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\nThis session will cover briefly our recommendations for metadata quality\, the possibilities of enhancement of certain fields and the various data re-use opportunities.

SUMMARY:UKSG One-Day Conference: London
DESCRIPTION:Event summary\n\n\n\nThe theme for our 2018 One Day Conference is “Doing More with Less”.  More and more\, we hear that all members of the knowledge community are expected to do more with less – in terms of creative allocation of budgets; staff numbers\, recruitment and training; skills\, technologies\, and even natural resources. \n\n\n\nWhy you should attend\n\n\n\nWe are bringing together librarians\, publishers\, researchers and providers of related technology and services\, to share stories and best practice around “doing more with less”; our programme includes speakers from five countries\, so delegates will be able to learn from a wide range of perspectives\, experiences and contextual challenges (what would happen to your budget if your university stopped charging student fees?). \n\n\n\nLearning objectives\n\n\n\nYou will learn about methodologies to help more efficiently plan and test new ideas; strategies for providing access after big deal cancellations; technologies that can help libraries surface their content and services more effectively; the day will close with a debate about whether library schools and other professional development opportunities are keeping pace with the changes we face as we “do more with less”. \n\n\n\nOur provisional programme is below.  We are still confirming some speakers and will update this page as we do so. \n\n\n\nEvent sponsor\n\n\n\nUKSG would like to thank its generous sponsor SpringerNature.

SUMMARY:UKSG Introduction to open access publication lifecycles and compliance
DESCRIPTION:Previously an area primarily of concern to publishers and intermediaries\, the rise of open access and associated ‘compliance’ requirements has resulted in an increasing role for librarians in supporting pre-publication workflows for journal articles and other research outputs. It has also led to the development of a widening range of services\, systems and standards to support publication and manage compliance.
