Professor for Library Science at University of Applied Sciences HTW Chur (Switzerland) In May 2012 Rudolf Mumenthaler became professor for library science at the University of Applied Sciences HTW Chur where his focus lays on digital library, library management, mobile usage of library services and innovation management. Brian Kelly is a member of the Executive group of the Innovation Support Centre which is part of UKOLN, a well-established applied research organisation based at the University of Bath. Brian is an experienced speaker on topics such as Web accessibility, Web 2.0 and the Social Web. In recent years Brian has been an invited plenary speaker at international conferences held in Stockholm, Taiwan, Singapore and Melbourne. He has also written peerreviewed papers on topics including Web accessibility, Web standards and Web 2.0. Brian also established the Institutional Web Management Workshop (IWMW) in 1997 - this year sees the 16th in the series taking place at the University of Edinburgh.

After his PhD thesis in History at the University of Zurich, Rudolf Mumenthaler worked from 1997 until 2012 at ETH-Bibliothek in Zurich. Until 2008 he was responsible for the Special Collections and put a strong focus on digitization and online access to the worthful collections (autographs, rare books, photographs). 2009 he became head of the newly founded department innovation and marketing at ETH Library. He created an innovation process for the library. A main task was to screen developments in information technology and libraries and to check which issues would be interesting for the library and its services. One of these issues were eReaders and how they could be used in libraries.

Brian’s areas of interest include ways in which Web 2.0 and the Social Web can be used to support professional, scholarly and research activities, Web [2] standards, Web accessibility and Web metrics. In addition his interests in open content has led in recent years to taking a pro-active role in the provision of ’amplified events’ in order to maximise discussions at an event and to enhance the outreach by encouraging participation with a remote audience. Brian is a prolific blogger, primarily on the [1]UK Web Focus blog, but also contributes to several other blogs. The UK Web Focus blog provides a forum for ’thinking out loud’ about the implications of Web 2.0 and the Social Web, engaging in discussions and debate as well as disseminating his work activities.

16:00-16:30 Location A Adrian Stevenson and Jane Stevenson The Winner Takes it All? -APIs and Linked Data Battle It Out Abstract:Although we see an increasing number of Linked Data sets becoming available, there are still many vocal dissenters’ who don’t believe that Linked Data technology will gain sufficient traction and become widely adopted. Their dissent typically revolves around the argument that Linked Data is complex, and that existing lightweight API approaches are easier to implement and more likely to be used by software developers. We propose to compare these two alternative ways of making data available on the Web. Are they conflicting or are they complimentary? Is there room for both? Do they achieve different things? We will look at two UK open data projects; Linking Lives’ and the World War One Discovery Project’, in order to compare these approaches. Linking Lives is developing a names-based interface to the Archives Hub Linked Data (data.archiveshub.ac.uk). This data was created using the five star RDF Linked Data approach. We will discuss the challenges we faced, highlighting issues around data quality, linking to other Linked Data sources, and exploring barriers to achieving the kind of flow of data that is the Linked Data vision. The World War Discovery project is building an aggregation layer, drawing together WW1 digital content. Core to the creation of this aggregation layer is the vision and approaches outlined by JISC’s Discovery’ programme, which aims to make resources more discoverable both by people and machines. The aggregation layer aims to provide a real-world’ exemplar of what can be achieved using the Discovery principles, and ensure a positive contribution towards the WW1 centenary programme, which is being coordinated across the UK public-sector. A range of interfaces will be developed on top of the aggregation layer to demonstrate ways in which content can be presented to maximise opportunities for educational and research

August project, we hope in particular to gain knowledge about the effects Linked data and semantic technologies have on interoperability between library data and similar descriptive metadata that currently is administered and maintained in heterogeneous information systems. In general we hope to gain knowledge about challenges inherent in developing semantic web applications, and examine how these challenges can be met.

Too many institutional repositories resemble elephant’s graveyards. RePub, the EUR’s institutional repository tries to show the dynamics of research at the EUR. Built on top of open source libraries as Mercurial (distributed version control), Solr (indexing) and Virtuoso (RDF triple-store), RePub software is written in Python. The repository software enables the implementation of all sorts of services. Easy addition of informal research groups within the more formal university structure. Generation of statistics based upon the analysis of full-text files. Author-graphs that show cooperation between authors of organisational units. All features can be showed, since they are implemented features: http://repub.eur.nl Day two

BlogBook features like a map of libraries that can be used to find a library close to the user’s location. There are a number of future challenges we face, especially with the apps. We serve users in a specific discipline but not in a specific library. Thus, we have to find solutions for presenting availability options independent of a specific home base. However, we still need to be able to refer users back to their home libraries for licensed material or printed books. This works o.k. for German libraries since we are able to include external availability checkers. But these services do not work well in an international context. A focus on “open access only” material that we provide in EconBiz Open (open.econbiz.de) may thus be an option for the international version of the apps. In the future, we have to decide whether it is better to improve the native apps or to offer a mobile friendly version of the web portal. Both versions have their individual advantages and disadvantages. In the long run, we might go for a web-portal optimized for mobile users but right now the stripped down apps offer much faster access to the huge content pool than the web portal and make better use of the small displays and of the hardware-specific usage. In spring 2012, usability experts will perform a heuristic evaluation and then the usability of the apps will be tested in a student project. I will present our experiences with the apps, the results of the usability tests and our thoughts on and options for future developments. EconBiz was developed by the ZBW- German National Library of Economics – Leibniz Information Centre for Economics and the USB - University and City Library of Cologne. The apps were developed by the Know-Center in Graz, Austria.

BlogBook storytelling with augmented books and gaming. A series of augmented books will be available as a virtual library on hand upon entering the laboratory. School children will be invited to “perform” certain tasks in a virtual reconstruction of an old laboratory in a 3D power wall as in a game environment. They will have to “fish” the instruments and information needed through a series of manuscripts, old books and artifacts through 3D technology haptic instruments. These are the augmented books that are enriched with adds-on and thus amplified by information related not only to the text and the book itself but also the period they were created in and specific subjects the writer relates to. They will be invited to browse through the information and contribute his/her narrative to the use of the book on a different lever of the board, called the “story-board”. This level of visitor interaction will remain open for the next visitor to contribute a new narrative as well. School classes will then experiment with the application through specific tasks in groups and in the frame of subject specific workshops together with their teachers in an effort to investigate the outcome of such an interactive gaming in a library-museum environment. The project is financed mainly by NTNU and the National Library of Norway. This particular research project will concentrate on the performance and the outcome during a certain interaction between the visitor and the "augmented board". His experience and his behavior, as he interacts with the augmented books or the 3D experiments will be the observation field of the research. That is the project will try to observe how visitors function in a hybrid setting, where physical and virtual reality connects to their action in the quest of knowledge as a conscious cognitive process. 11:00-11:30 Location A Krista Godfrey The QR Question: QR Codes in Academic Libraries

QR codes, 2D barcodes that look like a bunch of black and white squares, allow creators to link to more complex information than traditional barcodes, such as URLs, phone numbers and text. Despite their creation in 1994 by Denso Wave, QR codes have only recently begun to appear as a mainstream offering, largely due to the ever-increasing rise in mobile devices. As these devices become more ubiquitous, libraries must shift focus and consider the best means to offer information in a mobile world. QR codes provide one possible way of linking the physical world to the virtual world. 34

2.7. August This paper will identify the wide range of activities that libraries are presently incorporating QR codes, from marketing and outreach ventures to information literacy applications, and examine the benefits and issues associated with implementing this technology. Examples of QR code use will be highlighted and best practices for leveraging the most out of QR codes will be shared. 11:00-11:30 Location B Olivia Walsby Making Connections - enhancing teaching and learning at The University of Manchester.

Since 2009, in collaboration with academics, students, and technologists, the JRUL has been working to enhance the student learning experience through the innovative use of mobile technologies. The Library has played a key role in the instigation, implementation and support of University initiatives to advance learning through the use of emerging technologies; from the Library’s e-reader pilot projects – initiated to improve access to core undergraduate texts, through the provision of iPads to students within Manchester Business School and Manchester Medical School (MMS), to SCARLET-a collaborative project between academics, librarians, archivists and technologists, seeking to unlock Special Collections material through the use of Augmented Reality. In a background survey carried out by MMS, 95 % of students surveyed cited access to reference materials’, as a key expectation from the iPads project. This highlights the increasing importance of the Librarian’s role as consultant and intermediary between publishers and Faculty. Furthermore the Library’s involvement in the MMS iPads Project has led to the initiation of a collaboration between MIMAS (national data centre based at the University) and MMS, with a view to enhancing iPad provision with the use of Augmented Reality; a team is now in the early stages of a project investigating the enhancement of drug administration teaching using this technology. Set within the context of a restructure at the JRUL - which seeks to fundamentally change the way in which the Library contributes to Research, Teaching and Learning at the University - this paper will examine the emergent role of the Librarian as facilitator and collaborator, drawing together relevant expertise from across the Library and beyond. The new structure will see the Library make a bold departure from the traditional subject team approach to a functional model. c 2012 emtacl.com

2.7. August This will allow the Library to become more user-centred and responsive to the needs of its user community and better placed to keep pace with the speed with which technology is developing. With ever rising student expectations (particularly pertinent to UK institutions with increased student fees), it is paramount that the Library pioneers the exploitation of new technologies to provide an outstanding learning experience if it is to prove its continued relevance within the academic institution.

The model has direct application in libraries, and in IL and digital literacy education, because it can be used to show how the ’generic’ approaches mentioned above are inevitably limited, and must be complemented by more subjective (or context-specific) and intersubjective (or critical) approaches to literacy education. Ultimately then, the triadic model of literacy is a tool for analysis of actual IL and digital literacy programmes, as it shows how if any of the three domains are neglected, a programme will not be able to meet all the needs of users when it comes to applying information and digital literacy in real-life situations.

The site is also a valuable pedagogical tool that significantly enhances undergraduate experiential education by providing a suite of digital resources that fosters applied research and writing skills and exposes students to the methods and practices of both historical and digital scholarship. Librarians and faculty at the University of Toronto Scarborough have recently partnered with the creators in an international federated partnership to collaboratively redevelop portions of the History Engine by adding new features and functionality. This presentation will look at that redevelopment as an opportunity for undergraduate students to create tangible intellectual products, and to experience the process of producing, publishing, and sharing their work with colleagues and the public, demonstrating how an emerging technology can create a more meaningful educational experience.

Urban Andersson and Stina Johansson. Publication profiles – presenting research in a new way How can the library use the extensive and wellstructured data contained in the institutional repository to attract the researchers’ attention and to promote the research outcome of the university? Publication data is still usually presented in a traditional bibliographic style in the form of publication lists and similair. But could this data also be used to present research activities and publications in a way that would get even more attention from users? At Chalmers University of Technology, the library has developed a feature called Publication Profiles. This could be described as the Institutional Repository Labs’, where we can create visualisations and aggregations of data in many different forms, and present information such as:
