Proposal for Open Theses and workshop at EURODOC 2011This is a proposal draft for a workshop on Open dissertation metadata, to be held on April 1, 2011 at the Eurodoc conference 2011. Please help get this draft into shape. We will finally — by 0:00 on Sunday, Sep 19, Vilnius time — submit to the organizing committee a permalink to the then latest version of this document. Short link to most recent version: http://bit.ly/OpenThesesEurodoc2011. Title: Which (European) country or institution has the highest proportion of Open Theses?Organizers
Speakers
TimingAccording to the draft programme, the slot for parallel workshops are two 90-min blocks on April 1 between 1pm to 5pm, with a coffee break and poster session (together 1h) in between. AbstractFor background, see Open Theses Project. For the proposed workshop, we would like to question the following research traditions and discuss how they fit into our time: - printed theses without copyright labeling, or with a copyright that prohibits reuse or redistribution
Basic idea: In session one, introductory talks by Peter Murray-Rust, Mathias Klang and Alfreido Fereira, followed by a demonstration of how bibliographic metadata can be gathered. Ideally, this would lead to some data that could be embedded into an electronic poster on display during the break. Session two would be a 75 min practical in which participants (both physical and online) try to collect the metadata (in a standard format, e.g. JSON) of as many PhD theses as they can manage during this time. This should give an estimate of the proportion of Open Theses in each country covered and of how many person months it would take to collect the metadata for _all_ theses published around the globe, along with ideas on the extent to which this could be automated (perhaps hold a hackathon in parallel or even before?). 15min to include these results into an update of the electronic poster and for wrap-up. Moderation by Daniel Mietchen.
Finally, we wanted to introduce elements of (a) making something happen and (b) fun. This leads to the proposed session title and allows all countries to compete — via online participation even on a global level. At the end of the workshop we should have a collection of Open Theses metadata (some of which may point to Open content).
Match with the conference themeThe conference theme is "Young generation in science: new fashion ERA? - The reflections of research traditions, models and relationships in a fast changing world."
Intended audience
FinancesWe have discussed the workshop with JISC UK who support the proposal. We are jointly exploring how to bring in other European partners.
Technical requirements
