This session\, led by Dr. Barbara S. Lancho Barrantes\, will explore the important role of bibliometrics in safeguarding research integrity. By analyzing citation patterns and publication practices\, researchers can effectively identify and address citation risks. Furthermore\, the emergence of various types of questionable citations\, such as citation cartels\, misleading citations\, over-citations\, phantom citations etc.\, complicates the landscape even more. This session will offer practical strategies for using bibliometrics to reduce these risks. Participants will learn to assess source quality critically\, recognise problematic citation patterns\, and use bibliometric tools to enhance their professional practice. \nBarbara S. Lancho Barrantes is a Scientometrician with a PhD in Bibliometrics from the University of Extremadura\, Spain. She currently serves as a Senior Lecturer in the Computing and Mathematics subject area at the University of Brighton in the United Kingdom. Her primary research focus is on citation analysis\, but she has also published on factors influencing research productivity across countries\, bibliometric mappings of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)\, and issues related to questionable publishing practices. \nIn addition to her research\, Barbara is also a dissertation supervisor at the Information School at the University of Sheffield and chairs the LIS Bibliometrics Committee\, which organizes the annual international LIS Bibliometrics conference. Her work continues to advance the field of bibliometrics and promote responsible research practices. \nThis session will be recorded.

Are statutory user rights becoming increasingly overridden by contracts? Do contracts limit these rights for end users and libraries? Can fair dealing “always be available” even if a negotiated contract says otherwise? \nJoin us for this community call to hear from a panel of legal scholars and library practitioners discussing whether users’ rights under the Copyright Act can be overridden by contracts and how to avoid unnecessary restrictions in our day to day activities. There will be time for questions and to share your thoughts about how legislative change in this area is needed. \nRegistration required URL:https://www.carl-abrc.ca/event/september-2024-copyright-community-of-practice-call/ LOCATION:Online Event CATEGORIES:Copyright ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.carl-abrc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/NewsFeaturedImage-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20240924T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20240924T130000 DTSTAMP:20260425T230957 CREATED:20250404T204631Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250407T171008Z UID:36640-1727179200-1727182800@www.carl-abrc.ca SUMMARY:CARL Canadian Repositories Community of Practice September Call – Ask-me-Anything with Mike Nason!

Research libraries are also adopting and integrating inclusive practices that aim to amplify and leverage the voices of marginalized and underrepresented communities in Canada. Central to these efforts are the fundamental principles of Equity\, Diversity\, and Inclusion which mostly remain within individual institutions\, limiting national discourse. Through the Inclusive Collections webinar series\, the CARL EDIWG aims to bridge this divide by facilitating conversations\, providing practical insights\, and fostering the exchange of policies and strategies\, ensuring diversity and decolonization measures. The focus is on fostering diverse collections and identifying valuable recommendations for collection development for libraries. \nIn this 60-minute session join librarians Karleen and Ashley as they discuss some approaches to collection development with Indigenous considerations. They’ll talk about topics such as how non-Indigenous people can engage in decolonizing work\, where Indigenous voices are being published\, and the importance of Indigenous diversity representation. \nThere will be time for questions and discussion at the end. This will be a collaborative future-forward conversation\, so please bring your own questions and/or proposed solutions. \nIn addition to being subject to the CARL Code of Conduct\, CARL asks all participants\, panelists and organizers to be respectful of what is being shared and in how they ask questions. \nIn the interest of accessibility\, simultaneous translation and captions will be available throughout the session. Additional accommodation requests can also be emailed to Julie Morin\, Program Officer at CARL (julie.morin@carl-abrc.ca). \nSpeaker Bios \nKarleen Delaurier-Lyle: Anishinaabe (Ojibwe/Swampy Cree) and mixed-settler ancestry.

Gabriela Mircea (CARL Visiting Program Officer–Metadata Strategies & Scholaris) will help frame the panel discussion and start with a CARL-centric overview for the Canadian repository context. Panelists will help provide a practical approach to questions such as: if one day I realize I have a spare hour to work towards bringing my repository better in line with these standards and movements\, what is a first step I can take? What about if I have a whole week? Or perhaps the opportunity to pursue a bigger project? This panel aims to start to lay out a pathway from wherever your repository is today to participation in broader open infrastructure and the future of scholarly communication. \nPanelists: \nKathleen Shearer – Executive Director\, Confederation of Open Access Repositories\nPaul Walk – Owner and Director of Antleaf\nGabriela Mircea – Visiting Program Officer – OpenAIRE at CARL\nKyle Demes – Vice President\, Research Intelligence at OurResearch (OpenAlex) URL:https://www.carl-abrc.ca/event/carl-canadian-repositories-community-of-practice-may-call-a-practical-guide-to-open-infrastructure-for-institutional-repository-managers/ LOCATION:Online Event CATEGORIES:Repositories ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.carl-abrc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/NewsFeaturedImage-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20240422T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20240425T235959 DTSTAMP:20260425T230957 CREATED:20250915T202426Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251024T163015Z UID:37691-1713744000-1714089599@www.carl-abrc.ca SUMMARY:2024 Spring Member Meeting DESCRIPTION:« All Events\n \n\n 2024 Spring Member Meeting\n\n April 22\, 2024\n –\n April 25\, 2024\n \nThe Canadian Association of Research Libraries is pleased to invite member directors to the 2024 Spring Member Meeting.

Invited speakers are Alison Moore (Simon Fraser University) & Lupin Battersby (Simon Fraser University). \nTo increase the speed and benefits of research having a positive impact on society\, researchers need robust and strategic knowledge mobilization plans. The Tri-agencies require knowledge mobilization and/or research impact statements that demonstrate feasibility and capability and go beyond traditional outputs. In this presentation\, led by the SFU Knowledge Mobilization Hub\, we will explore the essential elements needed for a good knowledge mobilization plan (who\, what\, why\, how\, and so what). We will address the intersection of knowledge mobilization and research assessment and how librarians can play a role in supporting knowledge mobilization. We will conclude this session with an interactive discussion of strategies\, tools\, metrics\, and indicators others have used to support researchers with knowledge mobilization and research impact assessment.   \nThis session will be recorded.

Erica Conte (Unity Health Toronto) and Baron Wolf (University of Kentucky) are members of the INORMS Research Evaluation Group\, which is an international group of research management societies that are working to ensure that research evaluation is meaningful\, responsible and effective. During this BRI Community of Practice session\, they will outline two major initiatives of the group: 1) the SCOPE framework for responsible research evaluation\, and 2) the More Than Our Rank global initiative. \nThe SCOPE framework for research evaluation is a five-stage model for evaluating responsibly. It is a practical step-by-step process designed to help research managers/administrators/librarians\, or anyone involved in conducting research evaluations\, in planning new evaluations as well as improving existing evaluations. The session will explain the framework and how to apply it to ensure we are evaluating our research organization and researchers in a responsible way. The More Than Our Rank initiative has been developed in response to some of the problematic features and effects of global university rankings. It provides an opportunity for academic institutions to highlight the many and various ways they serve their community and beyond that are not reflected in their various ranking positions. It is an initiative for institutions who are proud of their ranking position but also recognize the limitations of the indicators used and for those who feel that the rankings do not reflect their strengths or institutional mission. The session will explain More Than Our Rank and talk about the international recommendations to join this new initiative as a first step to a more responsible use of international rankings. \nSpeakers’ Bios \nErica Conte obtained her PhD in Physiology from Western University (Canada)\, and has diverse work experience in academics\, industry and research administration. Within these roles she has developed expertise in research assessment\, strategic planning\, communication\, institutional leadership\, as well as both traditional and philanthropic research funding. At Unity Health Toronto\, an affiliated research hospital of the University of Toronto\, she is currently the Director of Funding Strategy and Stewardship\, where she supports the full breadth of health research spanning fundamental science through to translational research\, health services/policy and knowledge translation. She has been an active member of the Canadian Association of Research Administrators (CARA) since 2014\, and is a member of the International Network of Research Management Societies (INORMS) Research Evaluation Group\, where she helps to develop tools to support responsible research assessment and improve our use of global and national rankings in research. \nBaron Wolf has experience working in institutional research\, effectiveness\, assessment and strategic planning within higher education. His work has focused on the use of data analytics to make strategic business decisions and process improvement. He is a member of the International Network of Research Management Societies (INORMS) Research Evaluation Working Group.
