  1. One to many: many to one The JISC and RLUK Resource Discovery Taskforce Vision Professor David Baker JISC Deputy Chair Andy McGregor JISC Programme Manager 29/11/2014| Supporting education and research | Slide 1

  2. A Collaborative Effort Full list of members at: http://rdtf.jiscinvolve.org/scope-and-terms-of-reference/

  3. 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

  4. 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

  5. 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.

  6. 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. 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

  9. Actions • Programme of Work • Ongoing dialogue • Buy-in • Partnerships • Quick Wins

  10. What does the vision address? • “Aggregation of supply and demand” • “Making our data work hard, engagement and co-creation” The (Digital) Library Environment: Ten Years After, Lorcan Dempsey http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue46/dempsey/ Image credit: http://www.flickr.com/photos/36656940@N00/57830899/

  11. What’s an aggregation? Repositories UK Culture grid Digital New Zealand Registry of Datasets A means not a destination Open Education Resources Facilitate access & use Europeana CERN Open Book Catalogue COPAC, Archives Hub, Suncat Web of aggregated data

  13. So what are we going to do about it? • Vision • Implementation plan • Steps needed to achieve vision • Purpose is to steer and monitor progress towards the vision • Will include work from all relevant bodies • JISC programme of work • JISC’s contribution to achieving the vision Image credit: http://www.flickr.com/photos/nickyhursell/3889649192/sizes/m/

  14. What’s in the implementation plan? • Development of framework  • Investigation of licensing issues with existing and prospective aggregations.   • Identification of candidate data for aggregation  • Identification of metadata standards and technology • Commission projects to produce content for aggregations or to produce aggregations  • Support for people wishing to provide content to aggregations, produce aggregations or develop services • A communication plan Image credit: http://www.flickr.com/photos/33124677@N00/56803146/

  15. What happens next? • Launch of Vision in June • Implementation plan • JISC programme of work • Open bibliographic data ITT • Single most important task – consultation and engagement Image credit: http://www.flickr.com/photos/resourcefulrobin/139880424/

  16. Key questions • So where do we start? • What can we do by December 2010? What should we do? • What must we complete by December 2011 and then December 2012? • What do you want JISC to do? What don’t you want JISC to do? • What do you want RLUK to do? What don’t you want to do? • Who else must be involved? • How do we best manage developments? • How would your library respond to this work?
