Summary • Library cooperation in Spain: • Consortia meetings • ISI WOK • Ministry of Science Innovation initiative • CBUC special activities in 2008 • CBUC digital library
Spanish Library Consortia • Meetings in February (and June) 2009: • It would be difficult to do joint purchases among Spanish consortia, but ... • We can share information: • list of common licenses • agreement on “negotiation basics” • common concerns (involve Spanish Ministry?): • VAT for e-resources • Open access mandates • National licenses for e-journal backfiles • ICOLC statement on economic crisis translated into Spanish and Catalan
Bad news … • Spanish government –FECyT- would stop paying the total amount for the only national license we have in place (since 2004): ISI Web of Knowledge. Their reasons: • Low dissemination/usage rates (?!) • Some institutions (like hospitals) might not have been included • They’d want institutions to pay 30% of the global invoice: • later this year! • no idea about the costs allocation formula • no idea about which/how many participants
Ministry of Science and Innovation • Holds different scientifc research institutions • CSIC (the bigest) BUT: • CIEMAT,INIA,IGE,IEO,ISCIII,I.Atrophysics (1500 FTE) • Now: each institution manages its collection/licences but: • E-content is very poor • Virtual access facilities do not exist
Ministry of Science and Innovation • 2009 has declared the willignes to better cordinate some structural aspects among them • Publication, Technology, Scientific Information…etc • Improve acces to digital collections for those organisations that have a low level of e-implementation • For 2009: • Had asked CSIC to manage tenders for all those scientific orgnisations • Later on provide IT systems to provide access to the digital contents
Minsitry of Science and Innovation • Problems: • Previous work-investigation to coordinate “what should” be licensed do not exist till now. • Lack of time • Lack of money due to the crisis • Who will carry all the work? • Administrative • Technical set up
