    Handreichung Technik und Infastrukturen
    (Genève : CERN, 2023) Eichler, Frederik; Eppelin, Anita; Kampkaspar, Dario; Schrader, Antonia C.; Söllner, Konstanze; Vierkant, Paul; Withanage, Dulip; Wrzesinski, Marcel
    In der vorliegenden Handreichung stellen wir unterschiedliche technische Ressourcen vor, die redaktionelle Arbeiten unterstützen können. Dabei empfiehlt es sich, Software und Systeme zu nutzen, die den Wandel hin zu einer offenen, niederschwelligen und nachhaltigen Wissenschaftskultur fördern. Hierzu zählt in erster Linie die Verwendung von Open-Source-Software. Unsere Empfehlungen haben dabei eine begrenzte Reichweite: Serviceanbieter, Software und Projekte sind zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt ggf. nicht mehr verfügbar. Auch sind gerade die Infrastruktureinrichtungen in das föderale Wissenschaftssystem integriert, was sie bestimmten Unwägbarkeiten aussetzt.

    Die Rolle der ORCID iD in der Wissenschaftskommunikation: Der Beitrag des ORCID-Deutschland-Konsortiums und das ORCID-DE-Projekt
    (Berlin : de Gruyter Saur, 2019) Dreyer, Britta; Hagemann-Wilholt, Stephanie; Vierkant, Paul; Strecker, Dorothea; Glagla-Dietz, Stephanie; Summann, Friedrich; Pampel, Heinz; Burger, Marleen
    ORCID’s services such as the unambiguous linking of researchers and their research output form the basis of modern scholarly communication. The ORCID Germany Consortium offers a reduced ORCID premium membership fee and supports its members during ORCID integration. Services include a dialogue platform that provides German-language information and additional support services. Another major success factor is an all-encompassing communication strategy: members of the ORCID implementation can resort to established organizational communication channels. Together and with the support of the ORCID DE project they contribute significantly to the successful distribution of ORCID in Germany.

    TinyGenius: Intertwining natural language processing with microtask crowdsourcing for scholarly knowledge graph creation
    (New York,NY,United States : Association for Computing Machinery, 2022) Oelen, Allard; Stocker, Markus; Auer, Sören; Aizawa, Akiko
    As the number of published scholarly articles grows steadily each year, new methods are needed to organize scholarly knowledge so that it can be more efficiently discovered and used. Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques are able to autonomously process scholarly articles at scale and to create machine readable representations of the article content. However, autonomous NLP methods are by far not sufficiently accurate to create a high-quality knowledge graph. Yet quality is crucial for the graph to be useful in practice. We present TinyGenius, a methodology to validate NLP-extracted scholarly knowledge statements using microtasks performed with crowdsourcing. The scholarly context in which the crowd workers operate has multiple challenges. The explainability of the employed NLP methods is crucial to provide context in order to support the decision process of crowd workers. We employed TinyGenius to populate a paper-centric knowledge graph, using five distinct NLP methods. In the end, the resulting knowledge graph serves as a digital library for scholarly articles.

    Die Bibliotheca Alexandrina: Eine sich selbst erfindende Bibliothek des Lehrens und Lernens
    (Berlin : De Gruyter Saur, 2010) Nissen, Martin; Heller, Lambert
    Since the opening of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina in October 2002, the library has become one of the most important places for learning and research in the Middle East. Signs for the success are the number of media units (appr. 800.000), patrons (appr. 15.000), staff (appr. 2.000), training programmes (about 800 per year) and the quality of international conferences. Despite the high standard of architecture and technical equipment, in this paper problems of the aquisition unit, the standard of eaducation and the information policy in Egypt are discussed.

    Digitale Bibliothek: Bibliothek 2.0: Die Zukunft der Bibliothek?
    (Berlin : De Gruyter Saur, 2006) Danowski, Patrick; Heller, Lambert
    Der Begriff Bibliothek 2.0 (bzw. Library 2.0) lehnt sich an die Begrifflichkeit des Web 2.0 an. Beide Begriffe sind für die bibliothekarische Welt relativ neu und werden bisher hauptsächlich im angloamerikanischen Raum diskutiert. Einige Bereiche des „neuen“ Webs werden auch in Deutschland von Bibliothekaren diskutiert, so beispielsweise Weblogs und die Wikipedia. Die Betrachtung sollte hier jedoch nicht enden, sondern vielmehr als Startpunkt dienen. Über den Begriff als solchen kann man sicherlich streiten, jedoch hat er sich als tauglich erwiesen, um bestimmte Veränderungen zu beschreiben. So schreibt Michael Stephens, der den Begriff entscheidend mitprägte, im ALA TechSource Weblog: „I am so pleased with the discussion – and no matter what name you use, I love that the innovations and plans just keep rolling on.“

    Digital Transformation of Education Credential Processes and Life Cycles – A Structured Overview on Main Challenges and Research Questions
    ([Wilmington, DE, USA] : IARIA, [2020], 2020) Keck, Ingo R.; Vidal, Maria-Esther; Heller, Lambert; Mikroyannidis, Alexander; Chang, Maiga; White, Stephen
    In this article, we look at the challenges that arise in the use and management of education credentials, and from the switch from analogue, paper-based education credentials to digital education credentials. We propose a general methodology to capture qualitative descriptions and measurable quantitative results that allow to estimate the effectiveness of a digital credential management system in solving these challenges. This methodology is applied to the EU H2020 project QualiChain use case, where five pilots have been selected to study a broad field of digital credential workflows and credential management.

    An Approach to Evaluate User Interfaces in a Scholarly Knowledge Communication Domain
    (Cham : Springer, 2023) Obrezkov, Denis; Oelen, Allard; Auer, Sören; Abdelnour-Nocera, José L.; Marta Lárusdóttir; Petrie, Helen; Piccinno, Antonio; Winckler, Marco
    The amount of research articles produced every day is overwhelming: scholarly knowledge is getting harder to communicate and easier to get lost. A possible solution is to represent the information in knowledge graphs: structures representing knowledge in networks of entities, their semantic types, and relationships between them. But this solution has its own drawback: given its very specific task, it requires new methods for designing and evaluating user interfaces. In this paper, we propose an approach for user interface evaluation in the knowledge communication domain. We base our methodology on the well-established Cognitive Walkthough approach but employ a different set of questions, tailoring the method towards domain-specific needs. We demonstrate our approach on a scholarly knowledge graph implementation called Open Research Knowledge Graph (ORKG).

    NFDI4Chem - A Research Data Network for International Chemistry
    (Berlin : De Gruyter, 2023) Steinbeck, Christoph; Koepler, Oliver; Herres-Pawlis, Sonja; Bach, Felix; Jung, Nicole; Razum, Matthias; Liermann, Johannes C.; Neumann, Steffen
    Research data provide evidence for the validation of scientific hypotheses in most areas of science. Open access to them is the basis for true peer review of scientific results and publications. Hence, research data are at the heart of the scientific method as a whole. The value of openly sharing research data has by now been recognized by scientists, funders and politicians. Today, new research results are increasingly obtained by drawing on existing data. Many organisations such as the Research Data Alliance (RDA), the goFAIR initiative, and not least IUPAC are supporting and promoting the collection and curation of research data. One of the remaining challenges is to find matching data sets, to understand them and to reuse them for your own purpose. As a consequence, we urgently need better research data management.
