Facilitating The Deposit Of Experimental Chemistry Data In Institutional Repositories: Project Spectra, Peter Morgan, Jim Downing, Peter Murray-Rust, Alan Tonge, Fiona Cotterill, Henry Rzepa, Lorraine Windsor

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

Institutional Open Access repositories are becoming established as an important part of the university library and information services infrastructure. While early efforts to populate them with content have concentrated on the deposit of peer-reviewed research papers, there is a growing awareness of their potential as repositories of data and other non-text materials, and consequently a need to develop strategies and procedures that can realise this potential. Chemistry as a discipline has been slower than the physical and biomedical sciences to adopt and exploit Open Access concepts in the handling of experimental data and research publications. Chemical information is essential to …

Enabling International Access To Data Sets: The Distributed Data Curation Center (D2c2), James Mullins Jun 2007

Enabling International Access To Data Sets: The Distributed Data Curation Center (D2c2), James Mullins

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

The challenge of accessing, maintaining, sharing and preserving massive datasets, generally referred to as data curation, has been a direct result of computational e-science. Although scientists and engineers recognized the problem, the solution was not apparent. The principles that underlay library science are not widely understood or appreciated by those outside librarianship. The theory and principles behind librarianship are obscured by historical application primarily to print materials – books and journals – however, the same principles that apply to organization, retrieval, and preservation of print materials apply to the digital realm as well. The National Science Foundation (NSF) in the …

The Interim Evaluation Method Of The National Project For Institutional Repositories In Japan, Yuko Murakami Jun 2007

The Interim Evaluation Method Of The National Project For Institutional Repositories In Japan, Yuko Murakami

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

The National Institute of Informatics (NII), Tokyo, Japan, was founded in April 2000 as an inter-university research institute. Its cyberscience infrastructure (CSI) initiative aims at providing industrial and social contributions as well as a base for international cooperation on scientific research. The initiative includes projects focusing on: networks, grid research, interuniversity public key infrastructure (UPKI), and scholarly content services. The project for institutional repositories (IRs), begun in 2004, is placed in the main focus of the CSI content project. In 2006, as the CSI initiative has put more emphasis on content services, NII began working with 57 universities to construct …

The Brazilian Model For Free Access To Scientific Publications, Pablo Ortellado, Jorge Machado Jun 2007

The Brazilian Model For Free Access To Scientific Publications, Pablo Ortellado, Jorge Machado

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

Although Brazil lacks a cohesive national policy for free access to scientific publications, local initiatives by universities, funding agencies and state and federal government make up the framework for a full policy for free access. The paper aims at putting together the pieces and presenting a general picture of what such policy might be: free access to all Brazilian theses and dissertations through digital repositories; institutional protection for the copying of books for academic purposes; fomenting publicly funded peer-reviewed non author fee free access journals; qualitative (instead of quantitative/ impact based) evaluation for scientists publishing in free access journals. The …

Global Access To Science – Meeting The Revolution, Tom Cochrane Jun 2007

Global Access To Science – Meeting The Revolution, Tom Cochrane

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

This paper considers the large changes occurring in the way science is done, and the global significance of such changes. It reviews the mission of librarianship in promoting access to science and then surveys developments in recent years specifically in improving open access to scientific publications, covering a range of issues including significant shifts in the public policy debate about access, as well as some of the arguments about the best means of achieving outcomes. It concludes with a review of fresh challenges in terms of access to scientific data (eResearch, eScience), and gives a view that while libraries cannot …

Empathy Versus Abstraction In Twentieth-Century German And Russian Aesthetics, Thorsten Botz-Bornstein Jun 2007

Empathy Versus Abstraction In Twentieth-Century German And Russian Aesthetics, Thorsten Botz-Bornstein

CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture

In his paper, "Empathy versus Abstraction in Twentieth-Century German and Russian Aesthetics," Thorsten Botz-Bornstein argues that Alexander Koyré has shown how the crisis of belief incited by Bacon, Montaigne, Pascal, and Descartes made that "man lost his place in the world." The German term Einfühlung (empathy) played an important role in the transformation of the relationship between the person and his/her world at the moment when modern science began to emerge. Botz-Bornstein examines the conceptual links between empathy and Verfremdung (in Russian ostranenie), and style by showing how German and Russian literary critics of the 1910s attempted to retrieve the …
