ABSTRACT Yvonne Campfens, executive director of the OA Switchboard, presented an overview of the Switchboard and shared pre-recorded statements from a panel of user-stakeholders: Liz Bal and Jennifer Sanchez-Davies of Jisc, Alex Howat of the Microbiology Society, and Adam Der of the Max Planck Digital Library. Throughout her presentation, Campfens also shared quotes from interviews conducted with representatives of research funding organizations, publishers, and research institutions. The comments from the panelists and interviewees served to illustrate the potential benefits of the OA Switchboard for organizations which are producing, supporting, and transitioning to Open Access (OA) publishing.

ABSTRACT This presentation covers a project to identify the preservation status of core journals and newspapers from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Library’s Hawaiian Collection, to determine the titles at risk, and to help in making preservation decisions. Using the Keepers Registry showed how these core titles relate to other keepers and other collections and the need for continuing local preservation decisions.

ABSTRACT University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing started publishing the journals of scholarly societies in 2018. This paper provides background on the publishing context at the University of Minnesota (UMN) Libraries, discusses the service expansion to include scholarly societies, and reflects on working directly with scholarly societies. The paper will also document some of the challenges and workflows involved in publishing society journals in hopes of encouraging more library publishers to enter into publishing partnerships with societies.

ABSTRACT This presentation introduced attendees to the benefits and limitations of Unsub, a data analysis tool designed by OurResearch. In this presentation, OurResearch co-founder, Heather Piwowar, demonstrated the use of Unsub for analyzing usage and cost data on a library’s “Big Deal.” The other two presenters, Jessica Harris of the University of Chicago, and Eric Schares of Iowa State University, discussed how they used the tool at their libraries to make collection development decisions for their libraries’ journal subscriptions.

ABSTRACT When trying to manage their e-resources, librarians spend a significant amount of time adjusting their holdings in vendor knowledgebases to make sure that the content their library can access is selected properly. This is often a tedious process, which, extrapolated out to each content provider, can be a drain on library resources. A National Information Standards Organization (NISO) recommended practice provides a solution to this problem by facilitating the automatic transfer and retrieval of library-specific Knowledge Bases and Related Tools (KBART) holdings data between content providers and knowledgebases. In this presentation, Matthew Ragucci of Wiley presents a publisher’s perspective on the work required to implement KBART Automation: Automated Retrieval of Customer Electronic Holdings, Andrée Rathemacher of the University of Rhode Island shares a librarian’s opinion on the benefits and potential pitfalls of KBART Automation, and Stephanie Doellinger of OCLC addresses the topic from a knowledgebase supplier’s point of view.

ABSTRACT As libraries commit to equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) initiatives, it is critical to measure the strengths and weaknesses of collections in response. Building off already established approaches of collection diversity audits, the author argues that it is possible to use MARC metadata to perform exploratory analyses at a large scale. This paper discusses the process of planning, preparing the data, and performing an analysis, following the trajectory of an analysis of the 2.8 million geographic subject headings present in the University of Toronto Libraries’ MARC records. The tools developed during this project are cited and available for reuse.

ABSTRACT We all like to consider ourselves helpful people, but are we always quick to lend a hand whenever the opportunity arises? This panel discussion focused on bystander intervention approaches within the context of academic libraries. What strategies and resources are available? What are the limitations of bystander intervention? How do you cultivate a culture of active bystanders in an environment that is not conducive? The panelists focused on how one can become an active mediator through sharing their experiences and thoughts on bystander intervention approaches.

ABSTRACT This presentation explored current library Open Educational Resources (OER) publishing practices and presented research results on those practices. This original research surveyed academic librarians involved in OER publication projects to begin to address the need for expanded dialogue and the development of best practices for publishing OER. The survey results illustrate a broad picture of current practices and serves as a foundation for creating a best practice guide for library OER publishing. The presentation addressed author recruitment and marketing, publishing tools and platforms, and publishing support outside the library.

ABSTRACT Knowledge Bases and Related Tools (KBART) is one of the most successful National Information Standards Organization (NISO) recommended practices. Formally supported by over eighty organizations across all stakeholder groups, it enables a standardized transfer of data between content providers and knowledgebases. The KBART Standing Committee has begun work on Phase III of KBART, which was last updated in 2014. In this NASIG 2021 session, three members of the KBART Standing Committee provided an overview of plans around Phase III of KBART, reviewing progress to date and highlighting efforts to resolve issues around KBART files for which there are no easy answers, such as the challenges of supporting additional content types beyond serials and monographs, how best to handle gap coverage for serials, and how to communicate Open Access content. The audience was asked to provide input on their use of KBART files, how they would like to use KBART that is not possible today, their thoughts on support for additional content types, and their opinions on proposed changes to KBART around the treatment of gap coverage and the handling of Open Access content.

ABSTRACT In 2020, LYRASIS conducted a survey of their members to better understand predominantly U.S. institutional attitudes towards open content, including Open Access (OA) scholarship. The survey revealed several findings indicating that U.S. institutions cannot conform to the same OA models and strategies as their international counterparts. Likewise, a significant portion of institutions cannot participate in transformative agreements, at least not by the current definition. This presentation described the survey findings and how strategists from LYRASIS used what they learned to introduce OA into their negotiations in a way that increased participation from institutions of different sizes, missions, and research outputs, thus expanding the definition of the transformative agreement.
