Closing Session

Advancing open data: implementing an Open and FAIR data sharing policy

Wider access to academic research is recognised as a benefit of open access but what does that mean for the public? With an increasingly educated population, more people want access to reliable information.

In 2019, the library research support teams at the University of the West of England and University of Bristol, delivered a public engagement event at a public library. This aimed to showcase the tools available to access academic research outputs and provide guidance on how to appraise the information found.

This talk will explore the feedback received and next steps in response to Covid 19.


Engaging the public in academic research – what has open access done for the wider community?

In 2005, Brougham Castle Bridge in Cumbria, UK, suffered significant storm flood damage and partially collapsed. Cumbria County Council paid a UK structural design firm £1.15 million to conduct repairs, and in 2019 the paper of its renovation was published. Unfortunately, academics who wish to write about real-world impact will find systemic barriers to themselves publishing in a journal that prominently features practitioners, leading them to often do so ‘off-the-books’. What is the future post-UKRI ‘Pathways to Impact’? This talk identifies the challenges that practice-oriented journals face in a metric-driven research environment.

IEEE Update for UKSG

ACS Publications recently completed a series of technical enhancements and changes to its integrated Open Access management workflow to improve the user experience for authors and administrators.
This presentation covers the key elements of the advancements made to the process in detail, from submission to approval, and from acceptance to publication, exploring the efforts to enable institutional affiliation standardization and the major changes to the Journal Publishing Agreement for ACS’s OA Read + Publish agreements.
This session will also provide a useful overview of the OA token management process for colleagues considering exploring a Read + Publish agreement with ACS.
