The challenges and opportunities in e-publishing and e-publications within the academic environment. Key issues such as competitiveness, collaboration, internationalization, and effective resource utilization are discussed. JISC's response to these challenges is highlighted, emphasizing the importance of innovation, scalability, and user-centered services. The Resource Discovery Taskforce's objectives are outlined, focusing on creating a shared infrastructure to facilitate access to educational and research resources. The vision is to provide seamless access to diverse content through a collaborative and sustainable framework. Principles such as interoperability, scalability, and simplicity are emphasized to meet the needs of various user groups. The future state of resource discovery aims to integrate and personalize services while reducing duplication and enhancing efficiency. Graphics courtesy of JISC's web2practice project.

Transcription de la présentation
  1. Bloomsbury Conference 24 June 2010 e-Publishing and e-Publications: Environment and Discovery Professor David Baker JISC Deputy Chair 10/06/2014| Supporting education and research | Slide 1

  2. The Environment • Differentiated • Segmented • Globalised • Competitive (league tables – national/international ) • Collaborative

  3. Key Issues • The bottom line • Markets • Internationalisation and globalisation • STEM • Growth or contraction? • Postgraduate v Undergraduate; CPD/PPD; lifelong learning • Efficiency and effectiveness • IPR • Scholarly communications • Infrastructure

  4. JISC’s response • Helping the sector to help itself – enabling, strategic, critical • Demonstrating VfM and providing economy of scale • Offering finer-grained services • Being prepared for different business models (eg subscription) • Being innovative • Being indispensable!

  5. Resource Discovery Taskforce ToRs • Define the requirements for the provision of a shared UK resource discovery infrastructure for libraries, archives, museums and related resources to support education and research • Focus on metadata that can assist in access to resources, with special reference to serials, books, archives/special collections, museum collections

  6. Purpose • To enable UK HE to implement a fit for purpose infrastructure to underpin the consumption of resources held by libraries, museums and archives for the purpose of research and learning • To address the key challenge of providing end users with flexible and tailored resource discovery and delivery services that suit their needs • To help to provide institutions with services that help them reduce duplication of effort and increase efficiency and effectiveness

  7. Vision • UK students and researchers will have easy, flexible access to content and services through a collaborative, aggregated and integrated resource discovery and delivery framework which is comprehensive, open and sustainable

  8. Principles • Network level -leveraging scale. • Integrated into the Web and future global communication structures. • Interoperable and flexible integrated into local, national and global provision. • Reduce duplication of effort and be sustainable • Robust and scalable. • Capable of supporting a comprehensive (format) inclusive (content) coverage. • Coherent, “compelling”, useable. • Simple to adopt (shouldn’t confuse with applications) • Meet the requirements of key user groups. • Innovative and open to change and adaptation. • Achievable.

  10. A Future State of the Art by 2012 • Integrated and seamless access to the rich resource collections held in libraries, museums and archives in UK HEIs • Creation of a thorough  and open aggregated layer - designed to work with all major search engines - of data about the resource collections • Provision of a diverse range of innovative and personalised resource discovery services to students, teachers and researchers • Avoidance of duplication of effort and increased efficiency • Existing resource discovery services encouraged to develop and innovate • Data will be available to commercial organisations to develop services as well • Data and functionality will need to be diffused to other software and websites that are used by students, teachers and researchers
