In this episode, Erin Gallagher, Chair of Acquisitions and Collections Services, University of Florida interviews Katharine Macy, Interim Associate Dean of Scholarly Communication and Content Strategies at Indiana University, Indianapolis and Project Director for the O’Neill Project. In this conversation, Katharine discusses her library origin story and how her grandmother going back to school to become a librarian at a community college influenced her. Although Katharine initially earned her MBA, and worked in the private sector, eventually she realized that her favorite part of her job was teaching people how to find and access and use information. She decided to go to library school, and still uses some of the skills from her MBA in her current role as a business librarian. Working with the O’Neill Project, she helps empower academic librarians in using negotiation skills, which she says is often overlooked in MLIS programs.

In this episode, guest host Michael Upshall talks with Michael Levine-Clark, Dean of the University of Denver Library. He discusses his academic background, the evolution of libraries, and the changing role of librarianship in the digital age. He emphasizes the importance of library staff, current issues in library metrics, and the impact of open research and AI on library services. Levine-Clark also shares insights on hiring trends in libraries and the role of institutional repositories in promoting open access. Takeaways Michael's academic background in history informs his perspective on librarianship. The role of libraries has shifted from being the main source of information to helping users navigate a complex information landscape. Investing in library staff is crucial for adapting to the evolving needs of users. Current library metrics and agreements need better data for effective decision-making. Hiring trends in libraries are expanding beyond traditional MLS qualifications. Institutional repositories have not significantly promoted open research, but they serve compliance needs. Open research initiatives are largely driven by funder mandates rather than library efforts. AI has the potential to transform library services, particularly in improving user experience and metadata creation. The library's web presence is becoming more important than the physical building. Personal interests like photography and cooking provide balance to Michael's professional life. The video of this interview can be found here: https://youtu.be/w4ylE4Sg6y0…

Today Caroline Goldsmith, Associate Director of the Charleston Hub welcomes back Dr. Mark Hannell, who’s the Vice President of Open Research at Digital Science and Founder of FigShare, along with Graham Smith, the Open Data Program Manager at Springer Nature. In this episode, Dr. Mark Hannell and Graham Smith discuss the collaboration between Digital Science, FigShare, and Springer Nature on the State of Open Data report. They explore the purpose of the report, the methodology used, key findings, and the implications for researchers and stakeholders. The conversation emphasizes the importance of data sharing in academic publishing and the need for practical support and metrics to drive change in open data practices. Takeaways The State of Open Data report aims to understand researchers' attitudes towards open data. Survey data often reflects perceptions rather than actual practices. Quantitative analysis complements survey data to provide deeper insights. There are significant differences in data sharing practices across countries. Strong data policies from funders correlate with better data sharing. Education around open data principles is crucial for improving practices. The report highlights the need for practical support beyond policy mandates. Metrics for data sharing can incentivize researchers to share their data. Open data should be a standard expectation in research, not an exception. The findings of the report are openly available for public access.

Audio from the 2023 Charleston Conference from the session titled: Rubric Cubed: A New Method in Collections Decions-Making presented by Erin Gallagher, Chair, Acquisitions & Collections Services, University of Florida; Courtney Pyche, Public Health Liaison Librarian, University of Florida Health Science Center Library; Ariel Pomputius, Health Sciences Liaison Librarian, University of Florida Libraries; and Tara Cataldo, STEM Collections and Research Metrics Librarian, University of Florida Libraries. Library professionals have long made use of evaluative tools for decision-making around collection development. Traditional tools are adequate for many collection development scenarios, but the increasing variety of acquisitions models, combined with entrenched budgetary challenges, present the need for new methods and inventive thinking. Enter the rubric! If you thought rubrics were stuffy or excessive, or only used to grade college essays, it’s time to take another look. Rubrics are not only instruments of collection analysis, but informative objects that help guide their own values and philosophies in their collection’s practices. These four librarians from the George A. Smathers Libraries at the University of Florida have been exploring the use of rubrics for collection development. They’ll share two rubrics currently in use. One designed for open access investments and another for monograph purchasing decisions. They’ll also share stories about the birth of the rubrics and impart practical, ground-floor applications of the rubrics through real-world examples, giving ideas for evaluating collections decisions in a unique and collaborative way, helping Publishers and vendors to strengthen their understanding of what these library partners value and prioritize.
