5. Managing Research
24
Research Management SystemResearch Repository
25
Funding environment creates a driver for research management systems including management of research outputs Government and other funding bodies requirement for improved performance Government wanting to see higher profile internationally for NZ research Higher profile of institutional research on the web also required because of ranking system developments
26
Library-based Research Repositories – primarily “Open Access” with some “Dark Archive ” Sharing and standards for interchange built into systems Archive the collective outputs of University staff and make them harvestable where appropriate Research Management Systems – primarily internally focused with reports for external requirements Funding & Grant Tracking Proposal Tracking Resources and compliance Reporting & Research Evaluation
27
Which piece of the puzzle is common? Research Outputs Library based Research Repositories Sharing and standards for interchange Archive the collective outputs of University staff Research Management Systems Funding & Grant Tracking Proposal Tracking Resources and compliance Reporting & Research Evaluation
28
Background on the Research+ Project at UoA During 2009 the University of Auckland began a process to implement a new Research Management System using InfoEd (US) In 2010 decision made to use Symplectic Elements (UK) for research publications module of the overall system Symplectic will become the integration layer as data entered into this system can be offered up for re-use in other systems (eg InfoEd grants module) and it comes with an “out of the box” (SWORD) upload facility so full text can be uploaded to the existing University of Auckland DSpace repository – ResearchSpace
29
Symplectic Elements Symplectic.co.uk –Spinout from Imperial College London 2003 –Their flagship product
30
What does it do? Tool to manage ‘Research Outputs’ –Publications Books, journal articles, performances, exhibitions etc –Peer Esteem / Contributions to the Research Environment Prizes, awards, panel memberships, fellowships etc AKA ‘Academic Profile’ »Teaching duties »Areas of expertise »Personal research statements
31
How the model works Citation databases WOS, Scopus, PubMed Research Outputs Module Symplectic Elements ResearchSpace DSpace Repository Management reporting Web Visibility Researcher Web Pages 2 way flow Deposit entry point in the RO Module, uses SWORD protocol for deposit API services and direct exports populated with data from RO Module
32
Problems solved using integrated model Metadata is entered once only and flows into other systems Accurate well formed data is sourced from indexing services/publishers/suppliers wherever possible Full text can be uploaded at anytime and the repository acts as a file store for the system Two way connection between the Research Publications system (Symplectic) and the Research Repository (Dspace) so Permanent URL can be exchanged, & if records are deleted the change flows back to the other system
