Mission Increase openness, integrity, and reproducibility of scholarly research. Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity
…in service of increased research efficiency, quality, inclusivity, and diversity. Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity
Mission To maximize research impact by making research widely accessible, discoverable, and reusable. Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity
How SHARE is building a free, open dataset of research activity across the research workflow. Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity
How …by gathering, cleaning, linking, and enhancing scholarly metadata. Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity
Providers Gather API Consumers
Current stats 31. 9M across 151 sources. E. g. , 16. 8M articles, 2 Current stats 31.9M across 151 sources. E.g., 16.8M articles, 2.0M preprints, 1.3M datasets, 18.4k software packages Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity
Publish Report Search / Discovery Develop Idea Design Study Collect Data Store Data Analyze Data Write Report Try to append Low quality-not going to happen at all There’s integration costs, Learning costs, Transition costs
If we seek to facilitate reproducibility, replicability, extension, and reuse…
We need to move beyond description of outcomes to description of process or, better, sharing actual process.
OSF organizes and shares research workflow. Publish Report Search / Discovery Develop Idea Design Study Collect Data Store Data Analyze Data Write Report OSF organizes and shares research workflow. SHARE describes it.
Public goods foster innovation. Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity

http://osf.io/preprints Aggregator: 5 non-COS sites
Expanding the model Preprint + Peer Review = Journal Journals not as gatekeepers, but as evaluators and amplifiers Preprints decouple publication and evaluation allowing for the rapid dissemination of content.
Aside I’m looking forward to working with Brian and Ginny on Red OA. Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity
Scaling Our Services We can’t be active in every community Scaling Our Services We can’t be active in every community. That’s not scalable.
Scaling Our Services But we can support members within those communities--that know them and speak their language.
<share-search /> </menu> <share> <providers-facet /> <types-facet /> <authors-facet /> <subjects-facet /> </share> This is about what writing a new frontend against the OSF will look like. Maybe curley braces rather than angle brackets.
Scaling between and within communities Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity
Service learning Balances instruction with a pragmatic, real-life opportunity to serve in the community.
The Pedagogy Learning how to learn via big, meaningful, real-world projects in a supportive environment that fosters independence and ownership. 112 student interns
Increasing our reach via focus with a stakeholder model Increasing our reach via focus with a stakeholder model. -or- If you build it, they will not necessarily come. Efficiency, quality, inclusivity, diversity

UCSD came to COS with plans to Design a schema Build a database Run a database server Create a web app Run a web app server Design a front-end Collect and curate data from around campus
UCSD left COS with a plan to Design a schema Build a database Run a database server Create a web app Run a web app server Design a front-end Collect and curate data from around campus
A good deal for both groups We can’t build a UCSD dashboard without UCSD data That data needed to be curated They are curation experts They know their community We received Feedback on dashboard design Insight into curation workflow A dedicated partner
It’s not just about metrics These are stories we can tell about our campuses. And it’s not just about productivity. It’s about diversity, growth, and change.
In my opinion The use of institutional identifiers is the most important task that the metadata community can take up.
