Institutional Repositories Making a contribution to institutional knowledge management and the global research commons Wendy White, University of Southampton 4th International Open Repositories Conference, Atlanta, Georgia, 18th - 21st May, 2009

Overview Long term sustainability, supporting core mission Embedding Mature Integration Flow Contributing to institutional knowledge management Conduit for effective information flow

Southampton IR Growth embedding phase Commitment to global commons - maximise research impact & accessibility Deliver research assessment Multiple demands Service improvements strategy led and informed by user feedback

Enhancements Publications lists embedded in the institutional content management system Link directly to HR rather than LDAP, legacy information supports whole career pathway Select outputs for assessment, store measures of esteem, run reports Light-box function to improve presentation of non-textual material

Future growth – mature phase Support knowledge workers Enhance communities of practice Ensure structural change leads to cultural change Develop trusted environments

It’s all about knowledge Researchers are key knowledge workers – high levels of knowledge and social capital Tension between “create” - flexible individual/small group and “process” – institutional e.g. QA, accounts, ethics Trend to large scale collaborative grants could be “tipping point” for move away from “lone researcher” paradigm

Communities of practice Exposure breeds new global and local partnerships, public and private sector Identifies key players in emerging areas –early formation of new cutting edge communities Interdisciplinary brokers with knowledge of more than area

Semantic services add value IR contributing to social and technical fibre of communities of practice Expert identifier Social networking and collaborative interaction End-user mash up and visualisation tools

Structural change as cultural catalyst “In social systems, behavioral and structural changes frequently precede and cause cultural changes” Firestone & McElroy (2003) “make the importance of sharing knowledge visible” McDermott & O’Dell (2001)

Research life cycle Use repository as evidence-base for reward and appraisal systems IR contributes to granular reporting on research activity and new models of decision making Visible research outputs can promote culture where outcomes influence research lifecycle

Trusted environment: IPR and copyright IPR and copyright support must take into account user perceptions and behaviour, not just ensure legal compliance Need to developed linked institutional end-user services covering bids, open access, digitization, copyright clearance Key requirement for a trust environment and KM

Trusted environment: evidence, stories and services Recognise competitive as well as collaborative landscape Build on success stories - evidence, symbols and mythology Knowledge, experience, social networks Personalised services Key requirement for successful global commons

Repository managers Repository managers contribute to institutional knowledge management Mature phase for IRs as part of next generation research infrastructure and collaborative culture Library managers and research technologists well placed as key brokers between communities
