United we stand’: the role of Citizen Science in a research library

This programme point will be an online presentation. The presentation will use UCL (University College London) as a Case Study in how Citizen Science activity can be embedded in the work of research libraries. Key to this development is the role of the UCL Office for Open Science, which is one of the new services offered by UCL Library Services. The second half of the presentation will look at exemplar Citizen Science activities in which the Library and Office have been engaged: the Transcribe Bentham project, and a collaboration with the London Borough of Camden in certifying Citizen Science activity in the joint UCL-Camden Citizen Science Office.

The role of Transformative Agreements in a Brave New OA world

This presentation will address the following issues: - What are Transformative Agreements? - New publishing models - The Brave New World? The speaker will look globally at arrangements for the transition to Open Access that have been put in place – with particular references to Transformative Agreements, Green Open Access, and the power of international collaborations. UCL (University College London) is highlighted as an exemplar in this analysis, which also includes other international bodies and movements. A suggested picture of the Brave New OA world is shared along with a 4-step test on how to reach that destination.

RDM Services at UCL

This presentation will draw a comprehensive picture of the provision of research data management services at UCL (University College London). These are collaborations between ARC (Advanced Research Computing) and UCL Library Services. The presentation will describe the learning curve on which the Library embarked, which resulted in the EU-funded LEARN project – see https://learn-rdm.eu/en/about/, and the Library’s European leadership which resulted in the Sorbonne Declaration on Research Data - see https://www.leru.org/files/Sorbonne-declaration.pdf – signed by global research partners across the world.

Panel Discussion

The Empires of the Future are The Empires of the Mind: Defining the Role of Libraries in Open Science Landscape

Open Science represents a potential revolution in the way that research is undertaken, disseminated and curated. The paper will look at the main elements of the Open Science workflow – conceptualization, data gathering, analysis, publication, review – and the characteristics of that workflow – citizen science, open code, open access, preprints, alternative reputation systems, science blogs, open annotation, open data, open lab books/workflows, data-intensive approaches. Having established the baseline for Open Science approaches, the paper will look at the impact of open science in 4 areas of activity, identify the current role of the Library in each and the potential the Library has to contribute to this agenda going forward. The four areas which the paper will address are open access and new publishing models, research data management, the European Open Science cloud and citizen science. In the area of open access, libraries have customarily engaged in the payment of APCs (article processing charges) and in establishing open access repositories. The paper will look at activity in one of the most active UK open access teams at UCL and then examine future publishing models. In particular, it will show universities might themselves subvert the current monograph model by offering publishing services from university libraries. In research data management, the outputs and outcomes of the EU-funded LEARN project will be analysed. These will dwell on research data management policy, best practice case studies, executive briefings and the findings of a survey looking at the level of preparation for RDM in research organisations across the globe. The paper will look particularly at the future role for libraries in the research data space, which the LEARN project is identifying, and suggest that research data management in the context of open science re-defines the role of the Library in research support and the research workflow. The European open science cloud (EOSC) has the potential to put Europe at the forefront of open science developments. As a member of the high-level EOSC Expert Group, the principal speaker will analyse the main drivers behind the recommendations for the development of the cloud and the future role for libraries in sustaining this revolutionary development. Citizen science is part of citizen engagement in science and research. We observe a growing interest of citizens to contribute to a better society. In conjunction with newly-available technologies, a world of opportunities opens for research institutions. The paper will map existing experiences and recommendations from research intensive organizations and we will then present a blueprint for the roles of the library in this landscape with Guidelines for best practice. The paper will conclude by analysing the challenges which open science presents. Rooted in the research workflow, the paper will identify the impact which open science is having on libraries and identify future roles that they can adopt in their institutions, both to support and also to help lead open science implementation.

Open Science – the role of the UCL Office for Open Science & Scholarship

There are commonly 8 pillars of Open Science which are acknowledged as such in Europe. They are diverse in coverage and touch on many aspects of university work. The foci for this work are situated both inside and outside an institutional Library. Given this fragmentation, how can the full agenda for Open Science be implemented across a whole institution? UCL is a research-intensive university and is usually accepted as one of the top 10 universities in the world. UCL’s answer to the challenge of Open Science has been to create the UCL Office for Open Science and Scholarship, which is a separate unit reporting to the Pro-Vice-Provost for LCCOS (Library, Culture, Collections & Open Science). The role of the Office is to engage in Leadership, Advocacy and to encourage Engagement with Open Science across the University. An organogram shows how the Office works both inside and outside the Library. The talk identifies staffing numbers devoted to each of the 8 pillars and analyzes the different types of activity which the Office supports. The presentation ends with a Reading List, presenting the foundational reading and investigations which have helped shape the form of the UCL Open Science Office.

‘Be the change that you wish to see in the world (Mahatma Ghandi)’: Universities and Cultural Change to deliver Open Science

This paper will be built on the LERU (League of European Research Universities) Advice Paper on Open Science, which was presented to the Competitiveness Council of the European Union in May 2018. The Council works in four major policy areas, including research and innovation, to enhance competitiveness and increase growth. The paper begins by identifying cultural change as the key element in delivering substantial and sustainable change in universities. Looking at the challenges and benefits of Open Science, the paper then describes a path for how to embed cultural change in academic institutions. The second part of the paper then looks at the eight pillars of Open Science as defined by the Commission and gives examples both of how substantial change has been achieved at a university level, and what the impact of those changes has been. The paper concludes by suggesting a model for how universities can assess whether a cultural change has taken hold to deliver substantial change.

‘Measure for Measure’: Moving to a Responsible Use of Metrics in the Age of Open Science

This paper looks at the eight pillars of Open Science as defined by the European Commission. It then targets one particular pillar – Altmetrics, or the Responsible Use of Metrics, using insights from the LERU (League of European Research Universities) Advice Paper on Open Science, which was presented to the Competitiveness Council of the European Union in May 2018. Having set the Responsible Use of Metrics in an Open Science Framework, the paper will analyse the findings of a survey on the use of bibliometrics carried out by HEFCE (Higher Education Funding Council for England) in 2017. The resulting analysis creates a baseline against which future activity can be judged. The paper then discusses one of the key LERU recommendations for the Responsible Use of Metrics, that every university should have a Bibliometrics Policy which takes into account the insights of Open Science. The presentation will use UCL (University College London) as an exemplar of a research-led university which has done this, identifying the benefits and challenges which a new approach to bibliometrics brings. The paper ends by suggesting a route that other universities can follow to deliver this form of change at an institutional level.

Open Science and academic libraries: managing the change

This presentation looks at the 8 pillars of Open Science as defined by the European Commission. LERU (League of European Research Universities) has issued a Roadmap, which makes 41 Recommendations for European universities on how they might embrace Open Science principles, policies and practices. This paper will look at the 8 pillars of Open Science and some of the Recommendations LERU makes for libraries to support the Open Science movement, concentrating on Open Access publishing, Research Data Management and the responsible use of metrics in research evaluation. Fundamental to the introduction of Open Science is the cultural change necessary to enable universities to embrace such significant change. Open Science has the power to change the way scholarship and discovery are performed and practised in Europe; libraries have a key role to play in effecting this change.

Changing the culture of Research Metrics in research organisations

The paper will look at the cultural change at an institutional level that is required to effect the move to Open Science. It will describe the 8 pillars of Open Science, as defined by the European Commission, and then look in detail at the issue of the responsible use of metrics. It will analyse the high level findings of a recent HEFCE survey on the use of Bibliometrics in UK universities; and then propose a 4-step plan to enable universities and research organisations to promote the responsible use of metrics. The insights are built around the LERU Roadmap for Open Science, which was published in May 2018.

From Open Access to Open Scholarship: UCL Press as a model for the Future of Scholarly Publishing

UCL Press is the UK’s first fully Open Access University Press, founded in June 2015. The presentation will look at Open Science as defined by the European Commission, which has identified the future of scholarly publishing as one of the 8 pillars of the emerging Open Science agenda. This talk will look at the implications of new publishing models for the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences by describing the foundation and activity of UCL Press. UCL Press publishes research monographs, textbooks and journals, and is developing a new platform for journal publishing which will be piloted from the autumn of 2018 in a subject domain in the Social Sciences. The presentation will look at the impact the Press has made – both in terms of the impact of UCL Press titles and the global engagement with the University that has resulted from Press activity. The talk will suggest that every research intensive university would benefit from establishing an Open Access Press, a move which would bring publishing back into the academy, embracing the values of Open Scholarship in the process.

Open Science – Current policies, practices and open issues in Europe

The LERU Roadmap for Open Science presents a model for how universities and research institutes can engage with the principles of Open Science. The paper will give an overview of the 8 pillars of Open Science which the Roadmap addresses, based on the definition of Open Science offered by the European Commission’s Open Science Policy Platform. The speaker will then concentrate on three of the eight pillars, describing current work in each of these areas in UCL (University College London). For the Future of Scholarly Publishing, the speaker will look at the possible impact of Plan S on current models for scholarly publishing and also describe the new open journal publishing platform being launched by UCL Press in January 2019. The paper will also look at the readiness of universities to participate in the EOSC (European Open Science Cloud), being launched in Vienna on 23 November 2018. The third area the paper will look at is the challenging area of Bibliometrics and how/if Open Science principles can change prevailing practice. The paper will then offer some tentative thoughts on the ability of European universities to embrace Open Science principles.

Keynote: EOSC and the Future of Research and Innovation in Europe

As defined by the European Commission, Open Science consists of 8 pillars of understanding, amongst which are FAIR data and the European Open Science Cloud. Drawing on the results of the EC-funded LEARN project, this paper will look at the challenges which research data management brings to the research institution in an Open Science landscape where research data are at least as equally valued as publications. How, in Rewards systems, can FAIR and/or Open research data be valued as a route to reward and promotion? The paper will look at how these concepts have been embodied into the new UCL Academic Promotions Framework. In terms of skills development, what needs to happen to equip researchers (especially early career researchers) with the knowledge they need to work in a data-intensive environment? A recent European report has shown that, for the EU, the cost of not using FAIR data will be 10.2 bn euros a year. A second report promotes policy recommendations to make the FAIR data model sustainable. The paper will conclude by looking at the research infrastructure being put in place by UCL (University College London) to deliver on the research data agenda by studying in detail the launch of its new research data repository, which takes Open and FAIR data as the default.

Education as a Pillar of Open Science

Education does not feature as one of the 8 pillars of Open Science, as defined by the European Commission, and this is a problem when considering the full range of activities which Open Science should embrace. There are also challenges in the UK in introducing the ‘Open’ concept to educational materials as these, unlike research outputs, do not fall under the Open Access requirements of the REF (Research Excellence Framework) or the TEF (Teaching Excellence Framework). UCL (University College London) has embraced the concept of research-based education and ‘Open’ approaches are helping to support this agenda. This paper will look at an initial UCL Scoping Study for Open Education (2016) and the current version of the UCL Open Education Roadmap (2017). The second part of the paper will look at the work of UCL Press, the UK’s first fully Open Access University Press, in delivering Open Educational outputs. It will start with the traditional textbook approach and then look at the development of the Press’s own textbook platform based on the BOOC (Books as Open Online Content). The paper will conclude by summarizing the challenges and benefits of Open Educational Resources as part of the Open Science agenda.

Open Science – a blueprint for the university in the 21st century?

This paper will look at the 8 pillars of Open Science, as defined by the European Commission and described in the LERU (League of European Research Libraries) Open Science Roadmap, and which be analysed in the forthcoming LERU paper on Best Practice in adopting Open Science principles and policies. What are the strengths and challenges in each of the 8 pillars of Open Science and what is the range of responses that universities could make? In this landscape, the paper will then look at four of the 8 pillars, Open Access Publishing, Research Data Management and Open data E-Infrastructures (European Open Science Cloud), Promotions/Rewards and the responsible use of Bibliometrics, and Citizen Science. It will take UCL (University College London) as an exemplar of good practice and demonstrate with real life examples how this university has implemented new platforms and services, established new policies and practice, showing the benefits and the challenges of these approaches.
