Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The internet has transformed the ways in which scholars and scientists share their findings with each other and the world, creating a scholarly communication environment that is both more complex and more effective than it was just a few years earlier. "Scholarly communication" itself has become an umbrella term for the increasingly complex ecosystem of publications, platforms, and tools that scholars, scientists, and researchers use to share their work with each other and with other interested readers. Scholarly Communication: What Everyone Needs to Know® offers an accessible overview of the current landscape, examining the state of affairs in the worlds of journal and book publishing, copyright law, emerging access models, digital archiving, university presses, metadata, and much more. Anderson discusses many of the problems that arise due to conflicts between the various values and interests at play within these systems: values that include the public good, academic freedom, the advancement of science, and the efficient use of limited resources. The implications of these issues extend far beyond academia. Organized in an easy-to-use question-and-answer format, this book provides a lively and helpful summary of some of the most important issues and developments in the world of scholarly communication -- a world that affects our everyday lives far more than we may realize.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A range of perspectives on the complex political, philosophical, and pragmatic implications of opening research and scholarship through digital technologies. The Open Access Movement proposes to remove price and permission barriers for accessing peer-reviewed research work--to use the power of the internet to duplicate material at an infinitesimal cost-per-copy. In this volume, contributors show that open access does not exist in a technological vacuum; there are complex political, philosophical, and pragmatic implications for opening research through digital technologies. The contributors examine open access across spans of colonial legacies, knowledge frameworks, publics and politics, archives and digital preservation, infrastructures and platforms, and global communities.

This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This accessible and highly practical book provides an introductory guide to the world of research support in the academic library. Academic libraries have seen huge changes in recent years thanks to the increasing availability of information online but they are now undergoing another shift. As libraries move away from providing access to existing information and towards helping users create new knowledge there is an opportunity for them to develop new services for the research community. To do this successfully libraries need to have a knowledgeable workforce who are equipped to provide the support that researchers need. Information professionals are increasingly being asked to advise their users on issues such as open access and research data management but are often doing so with little or no formal preparation. Outlining the reasons why library staff need to develop a knowledge of research support and guiding them through the key information on each topic, The No-nonsense Guide to Research Support and Scholarly Communication provides an ideal primer for those who seek to work in this area or those who have acquired these responsibilities as part of a wider role. The practical nature of the book means readers can dip into it or read it from cover to cover as needed. It includes practical checklists of knowledge and skills, international case studies by practitioners from around the globe, end of chapter references, how-to sections, activities and links to freely available online training materials. The book covers: - scholarly communication, open research and the research lifecycle - research data management - open access - disseminating research - metrics and measuring impact including the Journal Impact Factor, H-Index and Altmetrics - career paths in research support - why and how library staff at all levels can get involved in the process of doing research and sharing their outputs. The book will be essential reading for academic librarians who have had research support duties added to their role with little or no formal training or those who have taken on a newly created role and are unsure of how best to use their existing skills or develop new ones suitable for a role in research support. The book will also be of interest to public librarians who may be dealing with supporting their own research communities and those who are considering taking on a career in this growing area but are unsure where to turn for guidance including students studying for postgraduate library qualifications and those who have undertaken qualifications in publishing.

Book excerpt: Peer review processes in scholarly publishing are often hidden behind layers of opacity, leaving authors--and even reviewers--with many questions about the process. Open peer review is one way to improve the practice. It can shorten the time between manuscript submission and publication, hold reviewers accountable for their work, make more apparent the hidden labor of reviewing and editing, allow for collaborative discourse between authors and reviewers, and more. Even with these benefits, open peer review is not widely accepted or understood. Few academic librarians have experienced it, and each implementation can be different; anything open is highly nuanced and contextual. Ultimately, when we discuss "open," we must discuss the stories around it. What is the aim? What are the pitfalls? What are the gains? And are we trying to simply replicate a broken system instead of reinventing it? Stories of Open: Opening Peer Review through Narrative Inquiry examines the methods and processes of peer review, as well as the stories of those who have been through it. Eleven chapters are divided into three parts: * Part 1: Orientation. This section offers a conceptual frame for the book, providing details about narrative inquiry as a methodology and the author's worldview and research approach. * Part 2: The Stories (The Story Middle). What is the standard experience of peer review in our field? This section shares stories told from a variety of viewpoints and roles--author, editor, and referee--and explores how these roles interact, the tension between them, and the duality and sometimes multiplicity of roles experienced by any one individual. * Part 3: Coda. These four chapters tie the stories to the idea of open and look in detail at the research method, as well as imagine how we might move forward--reflecting on our past stories to create future ones. When we open ourselves to others' experiences, we reflect on our own. Stories of Open offers questions for reflection at the end of many chapters in order to assist in the continued exploration of your own experiences with peer review, and encourages the use of these reflections in creating new and improved peer review methods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traducción parcial de la Introducción: "Una de las tareas de todo trabajo de investigación es la comunicación de los resultados al resto de los colegas, es decir compartir los hallazgos con los demás de una manera establcida que se conoce popularmente como comunicación científica. La comunicación científica surgió con la publicación de la primera revista "Le Journal des sçavans" en 1665. Sin embargo, el término ganó popularidad en la década de 1970, con a incorporación a las revistas de comités científicos y la revisión "inter pares". Este módulo cuenta con cuatro unidades que cubren introducción a la comunicación académica, revistas científicas, revistas y bases de datos electronicas y la crisis de las publicaciones seriadas. Al final de este módulo, se espera que el alumno sea capaz de: - Explicar la filosofía, misión y objetivos de la comunicación científica - Describir el proceso de la comunicación científica - Identificar los diferentes canales de comunicación académica - Discutir la disfunción de la comunicación académica. En la Unidad 1, Introducción a la comunicación científica, se habla de diferentes aspectos de la comunicación académica, especialmente su génesis, la importancia y la ética de las publicaciones académicas, y diferentes canales de comunicación disponibles en la publicación académica. Algunos de estos canales se describen habitualmente como fuentes primarias, ya que proporcionan un testimonio de primera mano o evidencia directa en relación con un tema que se investiga. Históricamente, las revistas científicas fueron creadas por las sociedades científicas y otras comunidades académicas para informar de los resultados de sus trabajos de investigación concluidos o descubrimientos científicos. En la actualidad son editores privados con fines de lucro quienes han creado las principales revistas de investigación. Unidad 2, Comunicación con Peer Review, abarca dos importantes canales de publicación académica: 1 Revisión por pares en revistas, conferencias y sus procedimientos. 2. Diferentes métodos y procedimientos de revisión por pares para la publicación de literatura primaria surgidas de los estudios de investigación. La revisión por pares es esencial para la validación de la calidad de los resultados de investigación transmitidos por otros investigadores, que están sujetos al cumplimiento de las normas éticas y a la utilización de la metodología de investigación apropiada. En la Unidad 3, Revistas y bases de datos electrónicas, se analiza la aparición de publicaciones periódicas de ámbito académico y de investigación debido a la gran proliferación de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC). Las comunidades científicas y comunicaciones científicas de los países del sur están recibiendo atenciones sustantivas a través de la adaptación de las revistas electrónicas y bases de datos electrónicas en el proceso de la comunicación de la investigación. En la Unidad 4, la Crisis de Publicaciones Seriadas, se discute el coste de publicaciones revisadas por pares y los problemas que enfrentan los investigadores de los países en desarrollo. El objetivo de esta unidad es destacar los problemas y discutir posibles soluciones, incluyendo la aparición de acceso abierto como una de las soluciones, pues abrir la publicación de revistas ayuda a mitigar algunos de los problemas asociados con la crisis de las publicaciones seriadas.".
