Item THIS IS A TEST: Gas and stuff(IUPUI, 2023) Odell, JereItem Olivia's chicken(2022) Doe, John; Doe, JaneItem From Vision to Action: Building the U.S. Repository Network(2022-12-01) Baich, TinaThe U.S. Repository Network is an initiative of SPARC with support from the Confederation of Open Access Repositories (COAR). In its “Modernizing the Global Repository Network Initiative,” COAR identified the need for assistance in breaking down institutional silos and developing a more cohesive approach and greater collaboration around repositories in the U.S. Through a Visiting Program Officer, SPARC engaged an expert group of library/repository professionals as well as the broader U.S. repository community to develop a strategic vision for U.S. repositories. The strategic vision is “an interoperable network of repositories is an essential component of our national research infrastructure, offering rapid and open access to research, and plays a crucial role in collective efforts to transform global research communications, leading to a more open, inclusive, and equitable system.” This strategic vision and its complimentary foundational characteristics guide the U.S. Repository Network (USRN) Action Plan, which is structured to advance the vision and to ensure the ongoing engagement and sustainability of the network. The presenter will briefly describe the vision development process, review the strategic vision itself, and discuss the current status of the action plan. The USRN is intended to be inclusive of all U.S. repositories, and the presenter will also discuss potential avenues for future engagement.Item Wikimedia Indiana: A New User Group Rooted in Cultural Heritage(2022-11) Byrd-McDevitt, Dominic; Odell, Jere D.; Flood, JamieWikimedians in Indiana would like to use the occasion of WCNA to announce the formation of a new prospective user group, Wikimedia Indiana—currently being reviewed by the Affiliations Committee for affiliate status. This new group, led by several longtime Wikipedians active in the GLAM space, has been kickstarted by work centered on IUPUI University Library in Indianapolis and its many community partners. We are a small group, but we have already held several events and training in the past few months and would like to share our successes and invite others to collaborate. In 2022, Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis received a grant from the Central Indiana Community Foundation (CICF) Library Fund to increase public participation in Indiana’s history and cultural heritage by implementing two inter-related projects: 1.) contributing images to Wikimedia Commons from Indiana cultural heritage sites that take part in the Indiana Memory Project and 2.) fostering a community of Wikipedia contributors in Indiana with a campaign of public programs, training, and other outreach. Launched in June, the project has already resulted in over 10,000 uploads to Wikimedia Commons from 3 Indiana cultural institutions, 2 editathons (with 2 more scheduled on Nov. 1), 6 successful DYKs, and staff training at multiple local cultural institutions. With this core, funded project in motion, Wikimedians are invigorating a new community in Indiana with the hope that it can sustain activity and grow beyond the university library. During this presentation, we will discuss the Wikimedia community in Indiana, the state of the IUPUI project, the grant process, and advice from the team on starting new initiatives in areas of the country without much activity. The proposed session will also look to the project's future and discuss how the rest of the Wikimedia community, anywhere in North America, can help the effort.Item Negotiate Like An MBA: A Virtual Workshop(2022-05-17) Macy, Katharine V.; Ameen, MahasinThe art of negotiation is an important skillset for information professionals who often lack formalized training. Participants in this workshop will learn a framework that enables effective negotiation preparation as well as develop and practice new skills and strategies around conducting principled negotiations with external partners. Over three sessions, participants will learn key concepts and strategies such as BATNA (Best Alternative to Negotiated Agreement) and ZOPA (Zone of Possible Agreement) which are useful in planning offers and counteroffers. Strategies around how to prepare when you have little time, hear the word no, and experience poor behavior mid-negotiation will be also discussed. Participants will be provided case studies to practice negotiation preparation, and will have the opportunity to execute three negotiations, one on negotiating a job offer and two based on negotiating electronic resources. In the two e-resource negotiations, everyone will have the chance to be either the library or the vendor. Participants should expect to do about an hour of homework before the second and third sessions to study the assigned case study and prepare to negotiate at the beginning of sessions 2 and 3.Item Negotiation Case Study: Librarian Job Offer(2022-05-17) Macy, Katharine V.Fictional journal negotiation case study to help libraries practice preparing and conducting a negotiation for a job offer. It provides the case for both the library and hiring manager point of view with differing information to help replicate the missing information common that must be uncovered during the negotiation process.Item Open Access is necessary but not sufficient to ensure research integrity(2022-10-27) Coates, Heather L.This interactive session will explore the central role of open access to publications, data, instruments, protocols, code and/or scripts in fostering a culture of research integrity and public trust in research. Through discussion of contemporary investigations into misconduct, we will consider the interconnectedness of good data practices and open access with principles of research integrity. In particular, we will discuss concrete practices related to project management, data management, and training that enable validation, foster a culture of research integrity, and support greater openness in the conduct of research and dissemination of research outputs.Item Determining the Cost of Open Access: Estimating Annual Article Processing Charges for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Medicine Articles at a Large Midwestern University(2022-10-24) Pieczko, Brandon T.; Odell, Jere D.; Pike, Caitlin; Dirzis, AshleyObjectives: Article Processing Charges (APCs) for articles published in for-fee, gold open access journals are paid in a number of ways at this institution. These include a library-managed Open Access (OA) Fund, grant accounts, faculty professional development funds, departmental discretionary funds, and private faculty funds. The institution is currently considering several new approaches to providing authors with OA funding assistance, and the main objective for this research project was to determine an estimate for the total annual cost of APCs to the campus. Secondary goals included determining the financial impact of APCs on the institution’s research grants and corresponding authors. Methods: We conducted an affiliation search in Web of Science for the institution to identify articles published by authors at the university. We chose to limit results to articles published in 2019, as we wanted a sample year that would reflect the typical publishing output for the authors since the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted research and publishing patterns during 2020 and into 2021. We then selected only the articles that were designated as gold open access, as those articles were published openly in their final versions and were either supported by APCs or published by no fee OA journals. The results list (n=421) was then exported to a spreadsheet and our team analyzed each article using the following criteria to determine which articles would be included: Was the corresponding author for the article affiliated with the institution? If the article provides a funding acknowledgement, does it acknowledge a grant to the institution? What is the current APC for the journal as stated on the publisher’s website (in U.S. Dollars)? Results: Of the 421 articles our team analyzed, 168 had a corresponding author affiliated with the institution [combined APC total: $430,959 US]; of these, 143 were published in journals indexed by the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) [combined APC total: $349,699.89]; 100 of the DOAJ-index articles acknowledged grant funding to the institution [combined APC total: $274,688 USD]. Conclusions: Based on the findings of our research, if our university wanted to cover all APCs by corresponding authors published in DOAJ-indexed, “Gold OA” journals, the anticipated cost would be approximately $350,000 USD annually (with projected increases of 6% per year). These results highlight major concerns about the sustainability of current funding models for open access research and publishing in science, technology, engineering, and medicine.Item Understanding your BATNA & Other Tips to Feel Empowered During your Negotiations in Work & Life(2022-10-25) Macy, Katharine V.This short presentation (30 minutes) will provide best practices to help you prepare for and execute negotiations whether that be for a car, your salary, or for e-resource licenses. Learners will walk away with resources to help when strategizing their next negotiations including a simple framework for planning a negotiation when there is little time to prepare. This session will be provided by Katharine V. Macy, MBA, MLIS, the collection assessment librarian at IUPUI University Library and director of IMLS funded ONEAL Project, which is developing curriculum and open educational resources to teach negotiation skills to academic libraries. She recently presented during the opening session of MLA’s first Collection Development and Resource Sharing Symposium which was part of MLA ’22.Item Resource Sharing (R)Evolution(2022-10-13) Baich, Tina
