Horizon 2017 (3. Important Developments in Technology for Academic and…

- - - - 1) online identity is part of the broader
        view of digital literacy
      - 2) research outputs can be
        attributed to an author across the web to reveal their
        growing body of work, also crystalizing the content’s
        relationships to other scholarly research.
  - - - Due to the rapid evolution of data mining technologies and the proliferation of data sources
    - - Volume (data size: terabytes and petabytes)
      - Variety (presented in may forms like audio, video, text, images)
      - Velocity (the frequency of data generation)
    - - based on three core activities: caprute, curation and analysis
      - requires data management which afford an active participation of libraries in the research process though a research service department
    - - confidenciallity and privacity of the data collection, analysis and usage
  - - - Relevance for Academic and Research
        Libraries
        
        Library services platforms provide multiple benefits
        unavailable in legacy systems including time and cost
        efficiencies, new functionality, and transformative
        opportunities.

  - - - Relevance for academic and Research Libraries:
        
        The IoT can bolster awareness among students and faculty of available library resources by allowing them to push personalized recommendations
      - Lab Fosters Student Innovation,
        Adds Industrial Partners

        In the Netherlands, the University of Twente’s Living Smart Campus program is offering resources and funding to a collection of pilot projects in which students use IoT concepts and tools to experiment with solutions related to efficiency and sustainability, using their own campus community as a testbed
- - - - Libraries are positioned to lead efforts to develop students’ digital citizenship, ensuring mastery of responsible and appropriate technology use, including online identity, communication etiquette,
        and rights and responsibilities. Digital literacy transcends to generate a deeper understanding of the digital environment, enabling intuitive adaptation to new contexts, co-creation of content with others, and an awareness of both the freedom and risks that digital interactions entail.
    - - Although libraries have served as leaders in welcoming disabled : patrons, new obstacles are surfacing as technology changes the way users access information. To meet the charge of antidiscrimination legislation and institutional policies, librarians are challenged to implement technologies and learning resources that may not be created with diverse needs in mind.
  - - - Libraries are challenged to cater to shifts in visitor demographics and expectations
      - Matrix designs are advantageous because they formulate experts from different functional areas into teams that can undertake projects temporarily or permanently
        
        Developing successful environments necessitates the knowledge and skills of a diverse library staff including instructional designers, technologists, social media experts, and more.
      - Obstacles
        
        steep learning curves associated with changing roles
        
        resistance to change
        
        confusion as people
        report to multiple bosses

    - - Interoperability:
        ability to make research systems operate together
        
        The aim is to bolster the ease with which institutions can share their findings across institutions,sectors, and disciplines.
        
        Libraries are challenged to keep pace with the evolution of repositories.
        
        Obstacles
        
        Language barriers and cultural,
        organizational, and legal variances
        
        Speed of network development
        
        Resources available for network development
- - - - Scholarly communications now reside in networked environments
        
        This can be accessed through an expansive array of publishing platforms
        
        Sholarly records can be published as soon as peer review has taken place
        
        Allowing comunication more frequently and publicly.
        
        These can include research datasets, interactive programs, complex visualizations, and other non-final outputs, as well as web-based exchanges via social media
      - Libraries
        
        Are the gatekeepers of their academic communities’ research outputs and scholarly works
        
        Librarians
        
        The scholars need librarians’ support in demonstrating the impact of their various outputs at tenure and promotion reviews
        
        Altmetria
        
        Can reveal how scholarly records influence policies and real-world practices
        
        Both quantitatively and qualitatively
        
        Are growing more adept at managing repositories, curating research data, and promoting the sharing of open data
    - - Long-Term Trend: Driving technology adoption
        in academic and research libraries for five or more years
        
        Collective action among institutions is growing
        in importance for the future of academic and
        research libraries
        
        The global environment
        is allowing them to unite across international
        borders and work toward common goals
        concerning
        
        technology
        
        research
        
        shared values
        
        Support behind technology-enabled learning has
        reinforced the trend toward open communities
        and consortia as
        
        library leaders, educators, and
        technologists come together to develop platforms and
        software that help institutions
  - - - They are spaces for using advanced technology and thus permeate other fields such as politics and leadership
      - Libraries train people in the use of technological tools, so that companies use them to market their products
      - Libraries are spaces for creation and research and in which virtual reality is being used
      - 3D printers and scanners have been incorporated into the libraries for practical activities
    - - Libraries need to be transformed to be spaces for study, research consultation and interaction, they must evolve according to the needs of students and researchers
      - Libraries are now perceived as hybrid environments, a fusion of:
        
        SOCIAL: Face-to-face interaction
        
        DIGITAL: Higher speed of response of mobile devices
        
        PHYSICS: The space that allows to perform different acrividades
      - In libraries are emerging. "Beta Spaces" are defined
        As "environments within a larger ecosystem of the library
        Create prototypes and deploy new ventures "
        
        The Montana State University Library created the Innovation Learning
        Studio (ILS) to attract faculty back to the library. The ILS is an additional educational space in the library that enables more active teaching and flipped-classroom opportunities, as well as the exploration of new educational technologies
      - Many libraries are spaces for active learning classes, production studies of media, production spaces and other areas, conducive to collaborative and practical work
      - Young people consult more pages of search engines like google and wikipedia for research or tasks, do not visit the libraries because everything is already on the web
  - - - Access, Support and Data Management in diversified forms including Audios and videos that must be managed under regulations directed by departments specialized in emerging formats and new technologies
        Both academic and research libraries have applied strategies that have been successful on the impact of research policies as well as staff training and the development of structures
      - Libraries have databases for teachers and students for research and articles.
    - - User experience (UX) is the result of using products and services and measuring it by the quality of interaction
        
        To implement better UX, some libraries are employing
        design thinking, which uses design principles to ac
        commodate people’s needs with technologically feasible strategies.
        
        It's important that institutions share resources
        and expertise to help library leaders understand
        user behavior, learnability, and accessibility of library
        services.
        
        Important aspects to work on: explore ethnography.
        
        Usability
        
        Human-centered design
        
        TENDENCY: It tends to change the way research libraries interacts with users, in order to improve aesthetics, appeal and connections
