1. Repositories and RAE Submission Getting More Out Of Institutional Repositories Bill Hubbard SHERPA Manager University of Nottingham

2. To get more out... You have to put more in!

3. Repositories and the RAE In principle – good fit for sciences –eprints as digital duplicates of articles –conference papers –but in a digital world, will articles remain as sole object of assessment? Arts and Humanities? –book chapters –videos –multimedia –exhibitions, etc Challenges – but soluble and being worked on

4. Underlying issues with using IRs Encouraging use by academics Versions of papers –pre-print –post-print –authors version –publishers pdf –What is being assessed? Rights to house materials –for RAE –for Open Access

5. Publishers Funding cycle and assessment Discipline Funders National Funders Researchers Institutions

6. in practice... Discipline Funders National Funders Researchers Institutions Publishers

7. Timing, timing, timing... Next time... well get it right! What can we do now? IRs can be used as Institutional Research Management System (IRMS) IRs can be used as partial solution for OA materials – or where panels give the lead that they will accept author-versions

8. Modifying the repository Dark archives Dark corners Metadata only entries –pointing to external RAE/OA-access source –pointing to publisher site accessible by RAE –pointing to subscription site But this does loose the fundamental idea of an Open Access Repository Carts and horses... which is which?

11. Futures 10 years - what changes are coming down the track and what responses are needed? What is inside your control and what is outside? Irrespective of repositories, author-side charges, open access - what will develop? Developments in the web and ICT alone will produce substantial change... Some themes...

12. Journals Governments will not loosen the purse strings Subscriptions per journal will continue to decline Continued agglomeration of publishing concerns Smaller publishers will continue to be squeezed and have to react The big and the nimble will survive Editorial and peer-review process will be technologically mediated Unbundling of products, processes and services - with a global marketplace for service provision

13. Academics and IT Increasing connectivity Increasing demand for rapid, permanent access, everywhere Increasing demand for more information Increasing demand for free access Information per se will be more freely available and the links between information will become the valued commodity

14. Research Full Economic Costing and Value For Money Public awareness and public availability Raised awareness of IPR issues Institutions being pressured to capitalise on assets Cross-disciplinary research Synthesis - evidence based research - data mining Emergence of global standards - quality control? - with a global marketplace for service provision

15. Research Assessment - processes Change to metrics based assessment IT-based – access, analysis, storage, process Continual rather than periodic Cross-publication and cross-discipline metrics – –Information that we will have at hand, rather than publishers We will have the capability to service these needs in- house We need to advertise our place in the process and lead innovation
