THE SHARE NOTIFICATION SERVICE Hot Topics: The DuraSpace Community Webinar Series

10 December 2014

Eric Celeste, SHARE Technical Director, [email protected]

TODAY •  Brief background on SHARE •  Description of Notification Service •  Early Lessons of Notification Service •  Hint of plans for Phase II •  Opportunities to Participate •  Questions & Answers

WHO & WHAT IS SHARE? SHARE is a higher education initiative to maximize research impact.

WHO & WHAT IS SHARE? SHARE envisions an environment where researchers can keep interested parties seamlessly informed of their activities, where funders can easily determine the impact of their investments, and where institutions can readily collect and assess the output of their community members.

FUNDING $1,000,000 to develop Notification Service and long term SHARE vision March, 2014 through September, 2015

NOTIFICATION SERVICE

Who is producing what?

and

Who wants to know?

USER STORIES As an IR Manager, I would like to know what output of our researchers is deposited in repositories at other institutions so I can approach them about a copy for our collection. I am a sponsor and I want to know what products have resulted from the research I sponsored so I can determine what additional revenue the original grant may have generated. I am the Director of Institutional Research and I’m tasked with notifying campus stakeholders, including University Communications and Office of Contracts and Grants, when our university’s faculty publishes an article (or other output) funded by an awarded grant.

THE TEAM AT COS

SHARE Notification

Service

RSS •  “Really Simple Syndication” designed

for blogs and breaking news. •  Struggles with large number of

updates at one time. •  Very easy to set up, a fun way to see

what flows through the Notification Service.

PUBSUBHUBBUB •  Developed by Google •  “An open, simple, web-scale and

decentralized pubsub protocol. Anybody can play.”

•  Another way for “publisher” like SHARE to inform “subscribers” like our consumers of changes to “our content” like our notifications.

RESOURCESYNC •  Developed by library community. •  Uses PubSubHubbub too. •  “A synchronization framework for the

web consisting of various capabilities that allow third-party systems to remain synchronized with a server's evolving resources.”

STATUS AT END OF SUMMER Planned for 3 platforms, 5 institutions, 2 agencies, and 5 publishers, 50 research release events, including papers and data. COS harvesting data from Clinical Trials, DOE’s SciTech and Pages, PLoS, UC eScholarship, Wayne State Digital Commons, VTechWorks, NLM PubMedCentral, CrossRef, arXiv, and DataONE. Experimental RSS feed to see output.

STILL WORKING ON Push protocol Creation of a “push API” to make participation simpler for some sources.

SOME EARLY LESSONS Metadata rights issues. Some sites not sure about their right to, for example, share abstracts.

Metadata inclusion and consistency. Most of our sources do not even collect email addresses of authors, much less universal identifiers such as ORCID or ISNI. Most sources make no effort to collect funding information or grant award numbers. This data needs to be collected and distributed to make effective notifications. The need for a Phase II. Some consumers will want the enhanced records it will provide.

METADATA RIGHTS Does metadata gathering violate your terms of service?

If so, are we granted explicit, written rights to gather data? Does metadata gathering violate your privacy policy?

If so, are we granted explicit, written rights to gather data? Does our sharing the metadata we gather from you violate your policies?

If so, are we granted explicit, written license to share the metadata? Do you use an explicit license for your metadata (for example, CC Zero)?

If not, do you have plans to explicitly license the content?

VARIETY AND AVAILABILITY •  We accept that we will have a variety

of providers with a variety of expressions.

•  But we need some key identifiers to be available in order to create effective notifications.

OPENAIRE •  See https://guidelines.openaire.eu

GUIDELINES? •  See https://www.coar-repositories.org

INCLUSION OF IDENTIFIERS •  Researcher identifiers such as ORCID,

ISNI, and so on. •  Funding identifier such as FundRef. •  Grant award identifiers. •  Further metadata elements

encouraged by COAR, CASRAI and others.

CONSISTENCY ACROSS PROVIDERS •  We can manage the variety.

…however… •  Consistency reduces errors. •  Consistency simplifies preparing for

new providers. •  Consistency will be required for push

reporting.

SOME USER STORIES MAY NEED PHASE II As an IR Manager, I would like to know what output of our researchers is deposited in repositories at other institutions so I can approach them about a copy for our collection. I am a sponsor and I want to know what products have resulted from the research I sponsored so I determine what additional revenue the original grant may have generated.

SHARE Notification

Service

SHARE Registry

SHARE Discovery

For Systems via Protocol & API For People

timely, structured, comprehensive

organized and related source of linked data

searchable and friendly

CHALLENGES •  Adoption of key identifiers just getting

underway, requires international collaboration,

•  Inferences prone to error, •  Duplicate detection difficult, •  Scale quite large, not well understood, •  This is a never-ending task requiring

sustainable funding and governance.

SHARE Notification Service including Phase II?

SHARE Discovery

For Systems via Protocol & API For People

timely, structured, comprehensive, reconciling incoming reports with what we already know and can learn from other sources

searchable and friendly

PHASE II BENEFITS •  Researchers can keep everyone

informed by keeping anyone informed,

•  Institutions can assemble more comprehensive record of impact,

•  Open access advocates can hold publishers accountable for promises,

•  Other systems can count on consistency of metadata from SHARE.

OPPORTUNITIES •  Sign up for monthly SHARE update •  Subscribe to the RSS feed •  Join the Beta in 2015 •  Become a prototype participant •  Look for SHARE enabling guidelines
