"The seven-level Researcher Skill Development framework extends the RSD's original 5 levels of student autonomy to include the degree of autonomy required for a successful research career. It therefore addresses not only students, but also early, middle and late career researchers. This involves the extension of the same facets of inquiry that appear in the original RSD framework to include two higher levels: 6 and 7." -- https://www.adelaide.edu.au/rsd/framework/rsd7/

"Research Skill Development (RSD) is about making explicit and coherent in regular university coursework the incremental attainment of research skills in a specific discipline. In the RSD, there are six facets of the research process, identified from the literature and modified according to Bloom’s taxonomy and our experiences of using the framework in the disciplines. The meaning of ‘research’ in this context is: students actively finding information new to themselves. Underlying this notion is the ‘degree of knowness’ of knowledge: whether research involves …

Janelle Wertzberger
What are the goals of your scholarly communications programs and services, and how do you define success? Critics and proponents alike often attempt to paint the scholarly communications movement with a broad brush. Both groups seem to push for a common definition of what the movement should look like and how success should be defined. In the world we live in today, these loudest voices are often amplified through their use of social media, listservs and prominent roles on the conference circuit, leaving some in the middle to question their own success and whether they have a place in this …

Assessing Computer Searches Used For Systematic Reviews, Paul Fehrmann
Paul Fehrmann
Systematic reviews (SR) are valued for increasing the rigor of and reader confidence in “reviews of the literature”. SR have been widely adopted in the health and social sciences. Computer searches are key for the information base of SR, and computer searches must be evaluated. The Computer Search Report Checklist (CSRC) is being developed to evaluate computer search reports. This paper has 4 objectives: 1. To report on development of the Computer Search Report Checklist (CSRC). 2. To report comparisons to AMSTAR, PRISMA, PRESS, and others. 3. To report on the inter-rater agreement for CSRC items. 4. To report on …

Measuring The International Usage Of U.S. Institutional Repositories, Lauren Fralinger, Jonathan Bull
Measuring The International Usage Of U.S. Institutional Repositories, Lauren Fralinger, Jonathan Bull
Jonathan Bull
Purpose – In an educational world with increasing internationalization, digitization, assessment and financial justification, US institutions, especially academic libraries, must justify each new project. Institutional Repositories (IRs) are no exception. The authors attempt to identify factors that might affect the international usage of US IRs as part of assessment efforts to determine an IR's return-on-investment. Design/methodology/approach – A survey was disseminated to IR administrators asking for demographic information, international usage counts for website hits and downloads, and any internationalization efforts connected to the IR in order to determine any influencing factors on an IR's international usage. Findings – While many …
