The Importance Of Digitization In Teaching-Oriented University And College Libraries, Craighton T. Hippenhammer
The Importance Of Digitization In Teaching-Oriented University And College Libraries, Craighton T. Hippenhammer
Faculty Scholarship – Library Science
An increasing number of university and college libraries have started digitization programs and there are good reasons why they are doing so. First, we are in the middle of revolutionary change as to how ideas get published and distributed. Over 50 percent of scholarly publishing has gone digital and over 20 percent has gone open access. Governments worldwide are beginning to require tax-supported research be published in open access venues. Secondly, it is imperative that they increase their Archives’ digital presence. Preserving institutional histories is currently being lost because of the entirely digital way academics now communicate and many archives …
Librarians As Advocates For Scholarly Authors: A Presentation And A Dramatization, Sue Ann Gardner
Librarians As Advocates For Scholarly Authors: A Presentation And A Dramatization, Sue Ann Gardner
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Libraries: Conference Presentations and Speeches
Scholarly authors today are faced with unprecedented choices and, paradoxically, increasing barriers to publication. For example, the author-pays financial model of funding open access (also sometimes called Gold OA) is one of many such innovations that thwart authors who are not currently Federally funded or otherwise sponsored. As academic librarians, we need to be aware of the scholarly publishing infrastructure so we can advise authors how to make decisions about where to publish, what terms to agree to, and how to best leverage their written scholarly output.
Regarding the scholarly publishing financial market, I will describe how, effectively, the “tail …

Mining For Gold: Identifying The Librarians' Toolkit For Managing Hybrid Open Access: Based On A Paper Presented At The 36th Uksg Annual Conference, Bournemouth, April 2013, Jill Emery
Library Faculty Publications and Presentations
In 2012, the author and colleagues surveyed eight publishers that had been involved with the Publishing and the Ecology of European Research (PEER) project to learn about the state of hybrid journal publishing. At the same time, one of the key questions asked to a panel of librarians at the International Association of Scientific, Technical & Medical Publishers May 2012 Meeting was what role librarians would play if scholarly publishing shortly went open access (OA) across the board? From the survey of the market, and the rapid OA developments in the UK and EU that include hybrid OA, a picture …

Library As Open Access Publisher: An Overview For Technical Service Librarians, Adrian K. Ho, Mary Beth Thomson

Adrian Ho, Director of Digital Scholarship, and Mary Beth Thomson, Associate Dean for Collections, Digital Scholarship, and Technical Services for the University of Kentucky Libraries will share their experiences with …

Halfway Open Or Halfway Shut?: Oa Hybrid Journals In Academia, Robin Champieux, Jill Emery, Kasia Stasik
Halfway Open Or Halfway Shut?: Oa Hybrid Journals In Academia, Robin Champieux, Jill Emery, Kasia Stasik
Library Faculty Publications and Presentations
This panel session asks why is hybrid open access important? Scholarly publishers have responded to the OA movement by offering authors the choice of publishing their articles as Open Access (using an author pays funding mechanism) in subscription journals. The study surveys eight publishers to explore a number of questions about the mechanics, implementation, price impacts, and author tracking of this model; and investigates the uptake at two research institutions, with one operating in a NIH Public Access Policy environment.

Mining For Gold: Identifying The Librarian's Toolkit For Managing Hybrid Oa, Jill Emery
Library Faculty Publications and Presentations
This plenary presentation was given on April 8 at UKSG Conference 2013 and discusses the following points: (1.) Open access provision does not mean that access is provided with absolutely no cost associated with it. Management of open access publishing is an investment that libraries are making (2.) Open access publishing whether it is done in your library or outside of it still needs to be organized and managed. (3.) Open access within your institution is an enterprise-wide endeavor and this is especially true within the library itself. Whatever you do, do not create another silo of management. The video …

The Brave New World Of Open Access & Creative Commons: A Humanistic Experiment In Mathematical Publishing, Gizem Karaali
The Brave New World Of Open Access & Creative Commons: A Humanistic Experiment In Mathematical Publishing, Gizem Karaali
Pomona Faculty Publications and Research
In January 2011 the Journal of Humanistic Mathematics (JHM) published its first issue. JHM (http://scholarship.claremont.edu/jhm) is an online-only, peer-reviewed, open-access journal which has passed the all important ten-thousand-download barrier in its first anniversary. In order to remain faithful to the fundamental principles of open access, JHM uses Creative Commons licensing, where authors retain copyright of their work, but others are free to reuse them (with proper attribution). In this note I share and reflect upon our experience with open access and Creative Commons.

Written by a working group of leaders from many parts of the association, this white paper explores and articulates three intersections between scholarly communication and information literacy. The paper also provides strategies for librarians from different backgrounds to initiate collaborations within their own campus environments between information literacy and scholarly communication."

Open Access To Scholarly Articles: Good Policies Ensure Good Practices, Jill Cirasella

Open access (OA) to scholarly journal articles is now widely accepted as a good thing. However, it will not become the norm without policies promoting openness. This presentation looks at policies that ensure that hundreds of thousands of articles become OA every year.
Open Access To Scholarly Literature: Which Side Are You On?, Jill Cirasella
Open Access To Scholarly Literature: Which Side Are You On?, Jill Cirasella
Publications and Research
Open access (OA) to scholarly literature recently hit a major milestone: Half of all research articles published become open access, either immediately or after an embargo period. Are the articles you read among them? What about the articles you write? Are the journals to which you submit open-access friendly? What about the journals for which you peer review? Are there any reasons why the public should not have access to the results of taxpayer-funded research?
This presentation explains the motivation for OA, describes the details of OA, and differentiates between publishing in open access journals (“gold” OA) and self-archiving works …
