Forging A New Path: Faculty Buy-In For The Institutional Repository And Open Access Publishing, Carol G. Hixson, Tina Neville, Deborah Henry
SJSU Open Access Conference
Many institutions with institutional repositories have had difficulty getting faculty buy-in to add their content to the institutional repository. The University of South Florida St. Petersburg (USFSP), a separately accredited institution within the USF System, has experienced significant buy-in from its faculty for depositing materials in the institutional repository, known as the USFSP Digital Archive. In a small institution of 5000 students, we have established collections for over one quarter of our faculty, with almost 1400 separate submissions in only two years. Faculty have also developed an understanding of and appreciation for open-access publishing and now consult with the library …
Research Data Needs Assessment At Georgia Tech, Lizzy Rolando
Research Data Needs Assessment At Georgia Tech, Lizzy Rolando
Southeastern Library Assessment Conference
This was part of a panel presentation given with Jen Doty, Emory University, and Vince Carter, Emory University.
From late 2010 through spring of 2013, Georgia Tech Library’s Research Data Project Team conducted a multi-faceted assessment of GT research data needs. In this program, we will discuss the four methodologies used in our data needs assessment. Each methodology served a different purpose, allowing us to collect different but complementary information. While our survey provided a broad overview of practices, individual interviews contributed to a more thorough and nuanced understanding of trends observed in the survey. By analyzing data management plans …
Platform Jumping: Migration Collection From Dspace To Digital Commons, Jane Wildermuth, Andrew Harris
Platform Jumping: Migration Collection From Dspace To Digital Commons, Jane Wildermuth, Andrew Harris
Digital Commons Great Lakes User Group Annual Meeting
Wright State’s Institutional Repository with Digital Commons, CORE Scholar, has been active for approximately a year and a half now. In addition to our Digital Commons platform, we have also maintained a DSpace-based repository since 2008. Earlier this year, due to a lack of support for our DSpace platform, CORE, we began to look for a new service to host our content. We have encountered many issues that needed to be resolved during the process of planning and executing our migration from DSpace to Digital Commons. In our presentation we plan to discuss our workflow for migrating diverse collections from …
Practically Creative: The Role Of Design Thinking As An Improved Paradigm For 21st Century Art Education, Delane Ingalls Vanada
Practically Creative: The Role Of Design Thinking As An Improved Paradigm For 21st Century Art Education, Delane Ingalls Vanada
Learn X Design Conference Series
Art and design education hold a unique role in preparing the kinds of innovative, balanced, synthetic creators and thinkers needed in the 21st century. This paper sheds shed light on how learner-centered art classrooms, that incorporate design thinking as a balanced process, can better develop the overall learning capacity of students. In a mash-up between mixed model research involving the impact of learner-centered pedagogies on visual art students’ balanced intelligence and reviews of literature surrounding the promotion of depth and complexity of knowledge, new conceptual frameworks are offered. Towards a vision of fostering deep, connected, and independent thinkers, the author—as …
Knowledge Unlatched: Toward An Open And Networked Future For Academic Publishing, Frances Pinter, Lucy Montgomery
Knowledge Unlatched: Toward An Open And Networked Future For Academic Publishing, Frances Pinter, Lucy Montgomery
Charleston Library Conference
Specialist book length publications in the humanities and social sciences (including but not exclusively monographs) are experiencing a crisis. It is clear that the current publishing system is failing both the producers and users of scholarship and neglects many of the opportunities associated with networked culture.
This paper introduces Knowledge Unlatched (www.knowledgeunlatched.org), which aims to improve the efficiency of markets for scholarly books.

Keeping The Momentum: Moving Ahead With Research Data Support, Hilary Davis, Steve Morris, Barrie Hayes
Charleston Library Conference
From June 2011 to early 2012 the NCSU Libraries and the UNC Libraries took part in the ARL/DLF E-Science Institute to frame a strategic agenda for supporting research data management and its broader e-science needs at our universities. We conducted an environmental scan, interviewed key researchers and administrators, and participated in capstone meetings with peer institutions. Our two institutions represent two strategies with varying degrees of divergence and convergence. At the NCSU Libraries, with no repository explicitly designed for research data, we are focusing on developing a portfolio of services and partnerships to create a “campus collaborative” of experts, tools, …

Issues And Challenges In The Development Of Open Access Publishing And Scholarly Communications In Nigeria, Ifeoma Ann Oluwasemilore
American Association for the Advancement of Science Pacific Conference
The paper notes that advances in technology have resulted in the emergence of open access publishing and scholarly communication. Open access publishing typically provides an internet based digital platform for the publication of research output with unrestricted access to the public while scholarly publication networks encompass inter linked information access to database by educational institutions. The growth of open access publishing and scholarly communication has been very remarkable in many developed countries. However, academic and research institutions in many developing countries like Nigeria are still battling to overcome many challenges in an attempt to make their research outputs openly accessible. …

Dataverse: A Free, Hosted Solution For Social Sciences Data, Linda Eells, Julie Kelly, Amy West
Library Technology Conference
Scientists are being asked to keep and share their research data, and librarians are beginning to have a role in the curation of that data. Working with a small economics association, the librarians who coordinate AgEcon Search worked with the data services librarian at the University of Minnesota to select Dataverse (http://thedata.org/, hosted at Harvard) for the data related to the association’s journal. Dataverse is free, has good documentation, and is optimized for social sciences data. This poster presentation will give the reasons for our selection of Dataverse and give an overview of our implementation of this project.
