Our vision

“To make a layer of scholarly and scientific content openly available on the Internet”

Noordwijk aan Zee October 2011BIK 22 January 2013

KE Approach

By sharing knowledge, exploring differences, collaborating and promoting international dialogue, the Knowledge Exchange seeks to:

• Increase the return on national investment in ICT infrastructure, services and projects in higher education and research

• Add genuine value to the activities of the partners

• Support the European agenda by promoting better access to information resources in higher education and research

• Create the optimal virtual environment for the Higher Education and Research Community who need to choose from a wide array of possible technologies and approaches

Metrics, Usage Statistics

Aims:• measuring impact and usage of repositories content • facilitating the exchange of interoperable usage statistics • discovering statistics as tool to measure the value of open access • harmonize approaches and advise OpenAIRE

Activities and Output:• Workshop exchanges of (best) practices: SURF SURE, JISC PIRUS, OA-Statistik• Workshop exchanges with key-actors: COUNTER, RePEc, NEEO, PLoS• Compare, discuss, negotiate and draft recommendations:

– for national application– as recommendations to/from OpenAIRE

Persistent Identifiers

8 organisations (national libraries, data centers, cultural heritage archive),

in 6 countries (DK, Fin, Ger, Ita, Swe, NL)

• Need for long term identification for storage & retrieval in HE&R• Need for open, non proprietary, trusted HE&R friendly system• Provide guidelines for a harmonized approach between URN, DOI, Handle,

Delivered : • Reports (State-of-the-art, Requirements, Sustainability)• Prototype of Global Resolver Infrastructure Service• Recommendations and Roadmap, discussed in a Persistent Object Identifier seminar• URN-NBN, Handle, DOI: discuss communalities, shared urgency• Connect to Linked Data (The Hague Manifesto)

Current development: URN cluster !
