Remixing Scholarly Research
Kirby Ferguson is a quirky New York-based filmmaker with an interesting idea. He wanted to show copying was often part of the creative process by providing popular examples of remixed content. The research and examples from different types of media have been aggregated into an extremely well done, short video series titled Everything Is [...]
Who’s Who? ORCID and the Author Disambiguation Issue
I’m speaking at the ORCID (Open Research and Contributor ID) Meeting at Harvard on May 18th. ORCID is a global initiative tackling the author name ambiguity issue, with over 200 participating organizations including academic institutions, publishers, societies, corporate, non-profit and government organizations. Author names create a lot problems for repositories like SSRN. We often find errors [...]

I will be presenting about SSRN’s view on article level metrics at the PIRUS2 seminar this week in London. I am also looking forward to learning about the [...]

Engagement Not Enrichment. Imagination Not Incorporation.
In scholarly research, there are many differences between the practices of the Scientific Technical and Medical (STM) disciplines and the Social Science and Humanities (SS&H) disciplines. According to a report commissioned by the JSTOR, “Scholarly Communications in the Biosciences Discipline,” journal articles are the primary focus of literature searches during research in the STM disciplines. [...]

These Times Are a Changing?
I am at the Society for Scholarly Publishing 2009 Annual Meeting. It is very interesting and exciting to see the changes in the view of publishers. Several years ago I sat in a keynote session where a publisher was explaining their incredibly high first copy costs and justifying them based on the value they provided [...]
