1. euroCRIS Strategic Members Meeting Amsterdam, Nov 11/12 2014 Interoperability – the IR (COAR) perspective Friedrich Summann COAR / Bielefeld University Library

2. Overview COAR – the organization Institutional Repositories CRIS (from the IR perspective) CRIS – IR Interoperability

3. Overview COAR – the organization Institutional Repositories CRIS (from the IR perspective) CRIS – IR Interoperability

4. COAR Confederation of Open Access Repositories Enhances the visibility of research outputs Paves the road to interoperability Fosters knowledge exchange on repository issues Strengthens international open access implementation Greater visibility and application of research through global networks of Open Access repositories

5. COAR members and partners

6. COAR Members

7. COAR Partners

8. COAR Working Group 2 Interoperability COAR Interest Group “Controlled Vocabularies for Repository Assets” The Interest Group will be the new maintainer of the (in DRIVER and OpenAire defined) vocabulary and widen its applicability for global use. It will be hosted at COAR and made publicly available as a resource for the global repository community. Moreover this Interest Group will provide an overview of related controlled vocabularies and open access indicators used in international and regional guidelines that are targeted at repositories. Using this review will allow to update and align controlled vocabulary for repositories at COAR.

9. Overview COAR – the organization Institutional Repositories CRIS (from the IR perspective) CRIS – IR Interoperability

10. The IR – past, present, future Started late ninetees Contents starting with thesis OAI-PMH protocol definition 2001 Open Access movement Establishing a global repository network Extending Size Quality Services

11. The IR – past, present, future More than 3200 repositories, around 70 Mill. Objects World-wide coverage But: Institutional Repositories are at a turning-point: More and more overlapping systems local(CRIS, Publishing Platform, etc) external (Subject Repositories, ResearchGate etc.) Scholarly communication process changes

14. Overview COAR – the organization Institutional Repositories CRIS (from the IR perspective) CRIS – IR Interoperability

15. OpenDOAR Repository platforms

16. CRIS OpenDOAR entries

18. CRIS Systems in the OAI-PMH perspective CERIF as metadataformat is not visible in OAI-PMH context Currently only PURE systems offer OAI-PMH interfaces in production The public PURE OAI-PMH interface has different deficits in the DC data delivery but is operable The OAI-PMH interface of Repository installations with PURE in the background looks very similar to other repositories of this type (DSpace, EPrints)

19. Overview COAR – the organization Institutional Repositories CRIS (from the IR perspective) CRIS – IR Interoperability

20. COAR Interoperability Project Phase 1: The Case for Interoperability for Open Access Repositories Phase 2: Open Discussion Phase 3: The Current State of Open Access Repository Interoperability (2012) Phase 4: COAR Roadmap for Future Directions for Repositories Interoperability

21. Interoperability issues and use cases Visibility (google metrics, webometrics, statistics) Data issues (Formats, quality, enhanced publications, linked data, research data) Sustainability (services, documents) Add-on services and features (embedding, publication lists, export, bibliometrics) Technical basics (architecture, protocols)

25. IR Interoperability The special case: CRIS-IR interoperability The common intersection: Publications The challenges: – The format question (CERIF – DC/MODS/MARC) – Related Services

26. The alleged CRIS/IR dichotomy CRISIR InternalExternally-orientated Research OfficeLibrary Research Information Mgt.Open Access MetadataFulltext Automatic HarvestingSelf/Archive/Mediate Deposit CERIFDC METS MODS Proprietary SoftwareOpen Source

27. CRIS-as-IR CRIS replaces repository and by becoming OAI-PMH- compliant it's able to perform its role (at a basic level now, but evolving) IR-as-CRIS IR data model and architecture is extended to cover additional aspects (projects, grants, funder programmes, awards, reporting information) CRIS-IR-Interop Coupled systems exchanging information CRIS – IR models of interoperability

28. Interlinked CRIS/IR system, with CRISs covering RIM and IRs offering access to full-text outputs CERIF/DC mapping will allow metadata transfer (usually CRIS --> IR) OpenAIRE CERIF-XML schema will allow CRIS/IR interoperability OJS-managed institutional journals often published via the IR 'New' worklines such as Altmetrics (and anything related to usage) easier to test on IRs – more mature, more flexible network However, many HEIs wonder about maintaining two platforms Research Data Management an interesting use case Not quite a dichotomy – interoperability is the key feature

29. The key challenges (from the IR perspective): Relationship CERIF – bibliographic metadata formats Integration of Services (via Interoperability) The conclusion: Communication to exchange experiences and to foster the activities

30. “Not quite a dichotomy – interoperability the key feature”
