Managing Change: An Organizational Outline for Reimagining the Digital Repository Infrastructure at The Ohio State University Libraries
No full textPoster at Open Repositories 2014, Helsinki, Finland, June 9-13, 2014Posters, Demos and Developer "How-To's"The Ohio State University Libraries is an example of an organization that had very early success implementing a campus-wide institutional repository. Organizationally, the Libraries, in partnership with the central IT division on campus, developed and implemented one of the early institutional repository success stories by focusing on the capture of content largely ignored by most academic institutional repository programs. However, as time has passed, the Libraries needs have extended beyond the scope of the institutional repository and the libraries present ability to support a wide range of digitized and born-digital content. Realizing that that were gaps within the Libraries’ current infrastructure and organization model, the Libraries has undertaken a self-reflective look at its organization, identifying gaps, and long-term opportunities, and developing a set of recommendations and roadmaps to ensure that the Libraries can meet the needs of the University community and its global partners. Given the size and complexity of the organization and its needs, this paper outlines the process the Libraries has undertaken to build the foundation and consensus necessary in implementing such radical changes.Reese, Terry Paul (The Ohio State University, United States of America)Warner, Beth Forrest (The Ohio State University, United States of America
Managing Electronic Resources in Today's ILMS Environment
No full textPresented at Library of Congress, "LC's Digital Future and You", March 13, 2003The integrated library management system (ILMS) has been the traditional electronic tool libraries have used to track and provide access to selected resources. As collections move increasingly from print to electronic, this tool, and the library?s internal processes, are being challenged in new ways to provide comprehensive, integrated, accurate, timely, and user-accessible information on these resources in an efficient manner. Coupled with the blurring distinction between the ILMS and evolving Digital Library systems and tools, today?s environment and choices are becoming increasingly complex. This presentation will attempt to help identify the range of issues involved and determine appropriate choices. Given the rate of change in systems development, the presentation will focus on potential approaches and system functionality trends rather than addressing specific vendor solutions in detail

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
