[Eril-l] NISO Two-Part Webinar, Managing an Open Access World -- Register Now

[NISO Announce]

Journals come in a variety of “flavors” with regard to open access. As a
result, those hybrid publications present their own challenges with regard
to collection development and collection management. For most librarians,
that challenge is closely related with one in an adjacent space --
compliance with funder mandates. There is an obligation to ensure that
funded research materials are made available to the public present; that,
in turn, presents its own set of issues. If you and your colleagues are
wrestling with either or both of these issues, set aside time next month to
participate in *Managing an Open Access World*, a two-part webinar from
NISO!



You can register for one session as a stand-alone or for both at a package
rate. Unavailable at the specified dates and times? Don’t forget that
access to the archived recording of the event is included in the
registration fee.



*NISO Two Part Webinar: Managing an Open Access World, September 7 & 14*

*1:00pm – 2:30pm (Eastern)*



As Open Access has proven itself a viable business model in the marketplace
of journals, institutions are beginning to grapple with the implications
and ramifications of its success. This includes the practicalities of how
to manage acquisitions in a hybrid open access environment, dealing with
discovery implications of open access, and institutional compliance with
funder mandates. This two-part series will explore the practical issues of
a world in which open access becomes the norm for some segment of scholarly
communications.



*Part 1: Open Access and Acquisitions, 1:00-2:30pm, Wednesday, September 7*

http://www.niso.org/news/events/2016/webinars/sep7_webinar/



The first part of this miniseries will focus on the implications of open
access on content acquisition. What are the impacts of hybrid open access
on publisher pricing at a title or collection level?  Is there a tipping
point where open access availability of a portion of a title’s content will
change the calculus about acquiring a title for one’s collection?  How do
we keep track of the increasing number of open access titles and the
increasing amount of hybrid open access content at a journal level?
Presenters will cover these questions as well as provide information on
research to explore these issues.



Confirmed Speakers: *Jill Emery*, Collection Development Librarian,
Portland State University; *Allyson Rodriguez*, Strategic Collections
Librarian, University of North Texas; *Chris Bulock*, Collection
Coordinator for Electronic Resource Management, California State University
– Northridge.



*Part 2: Compliance With Funder Mandates, 1:00-2:30pm, Wednesday, September
14*

http://www.niso.org/news/events/2016/webinars/sep14_webinar/



The second part of this miniseries will examine how institutions address
compliance requirements of funder mandates. As more and more funding bodies
adopt mandates for open distribution of content, at many universities the
tracking of this compliance is falling on the library directly or in
support of research offices.  Are there ways to automate compliance
tracking and strategies for improving compliance? This session will explore
progress being made by initiatives to gather and disseminate open access
compliance, as well as the perspective of funders who are requiring this
information.



Confirmed Speakers: *Pamela Shaw*, Biosciences & Bioinformatics Librarian,
Galter Library, Northwestern University; *Jeff Broadbent*, Associate Vice
President for Research and Associate Dean for Graduate Studies, Office of
Research and Graduate Studies, Utah State University, and *Betty Rozum*,
Data Services Coordinator and Undergraduate Research Librarian, Utah State
University; *Sarah Young*, Health Science and Policy Librarian, Cornell
University
