  1. DEF activities 2004

  2. Contents • DEF organization • Strategic activity areas • Program areas

  3. DEF organization • Steering committee appointed end February 2003 • 6 Steering committee meetings and 1 Liaison group meeting in 2003 • New strategy including vision, mission and organization developed • 7 program areas selected and staffed July/August 2003 • First Steering Committee meeting with chairmen September 2003 • Application for projects from program areas continuously

  4. Organization

  5. Strategic activity areas • Technical frame and web environments • System architecture • Portals • User facilities • Content • Licenses • Digitisation • New applications • E-learning • E-publishing

  6. Systemarchitecture (1) “In co-operation between the research libraries it-systems are developed, purchased or operated, which strengthen the individual research library’s purpose. The systems comply to common standards, participate in the common (3-layer-) architecture and will be freely available in the extent, which is appropriate.”

  7. Systemarchitecture (2) • Basic organization established for two project suites: • Authentication- and Authorization- infrastructure (AAI) • XML Webservices and 3-layer architecture (XWS) • A. Handling national and international relations • B. Dissemination of results • C. Service for the Danish libraries on developer level • D. Participation in concrete development activities with qualified persons

  8. Basic activity 750 tkr. Travels, co-ordination 200 tkr. Involvement of others 200 tkr. Concrete projects 750 tkr. 250 tkr. Project 3 250 tkr. Project 1 250 tkr. Project 2 Budget for basic organization

  9. Systemarchitecture (4) • AAI • Local authentication • Statistic module for DEF proxy servers • Pilot project: Counting system and pay-per-view solution for common purchases • XWS • Pilot WebServices: • Danish kernel journals • Danish sound/music • International e-prints • Danish library catalogues • Danish library directory

  10. Portals (1) “In co-operation between the research libraries subject specific and personalized entries to the libraries common information resources and tools for establishment of such entries are developed. A co-operation for relevant parts of the common information resources is established (DEF-cat).”

  11. Portals (2) • Theme 1: Support for further development of subject portals- 2004 • Theme 2: Evaluation of portals - 2004 • Theme 3: Update of deff.dk • Theme 4: Further development of Defcat • Theme 5: Personalization and institutionalization - 2005

  12. Portals (3) • Final development of ToolKit Lite and update on subject portals • ToolKit Lite (TKL) is used for standardized portal building • TKL is developed and complete for replacement and improvement of the earlier insufficient tool • 9 subject portals use TKL, 2 under conversion to TKL • Both local operation and hotel operation are possible

  13. Portals (4) • Consolidation of operation for deff.dk • deff.dk consists of parallel developed and parallel operated systems in several tools • Modules moved to TKL and operation consolidated at Aalborg University Library • Pro´s: • simplified maintenance of screen lay-outs • possibility for more efficient development of new modules

  14. User facilities (1) “A co-operation for the end-users information competence is developed and services is established, which enables the end-users to get guidance and education in information searching via the Internet”

  15. User facilities (2) • Usability project • Via empiric data about usage the presentation of services on the libraries websites is prioritized • Usability competence is developed in the examined libraries • Urge to maintain the achieved usability competence locally and to use it for the continuing evaluation and re-design of the libraries web-sites • Biblioteksvagten (On-Line reference service) • SWIM (Streaming Video Instruction Modules)

  16. Licences (1) “In co-operation between the research libraries the binding purchase co-operation for digital information is extended. A co-operation for registration of journals and usage statistics is developed.”

  17. Licenses (2) • Purchase of the journal service TD-Net • Requirements for a new journal service for deff.dk: • simplification of the administration of purchased license packages • access to pay per view • searching- and alert-functions • high updating speed for data • Test-project completed in co-operation with the libraries • TD-Net chosen for a 2-year period: • common journal directory for the DEF-purchases • local journal directories with possibility for adding local purchases • Purchase of the last number of years of back-files for the ISI database Web Of Science

  18. Digitization The program area has not been established due to the lacking substantial funding

  19. E-learning (1) “A concrete co-operation is established for integration of library services in virtual learning environments. Furthermore the co-operation includes clearing of rights, standards, preservation and general exchange of experiences concerning support for e-learning”.

  20. E-learning (2) • Late start means no projects yet • Basis in FlexDEF and new agreement for the Business School in Århus based on the law OHL § 13

  21. E-publishing (1) “Models for e-publishing is developed and co-operating for standards and software is established. The Danish Research Database is developed as a registrant for all Danish research”

  22. E-publishing (2) Activity areas: • General standardization, rights, dialog and dissemination • Institutional Repositories • Scientific journals (SPARC, BOAI og PLoS) • Preprints, reports etc. • The Danish Research Database

  23. E-publishing (3) • Current projects: • Survey of current standards and need for development • Survey of state-of-the-art in the area of rights and their administration • Pilot implementation of Institutional Repositories in Danish universities • International preprint search-service in deff.dk
