Videos: Giving Researchers Tech Skills & Students Providing Digital Scholarship Support

CNI-ANNOUNCE CNI-ANNOUNCE

New videos from CNI’s spring membership meeting are now available:

-Building a Deeper Bench: Training Students to Provide Digital Scholarship Support, Joe M. Williams (UNC Chapel Hill) This video highlights one new way that University of North Carolina Libraries services are enabling pedagogical and curricular change: by training Library student employees to provide substantial digital scholarship support. This initiative provides students with a hands-on work experience, engages them in new types of research, and develops their skills with emerging tools and practices. It also allows the Library’s many digital scholarship services to scale more readily, providing librarians with more time to engage with researchers on larger, complex projects and questions.

-Software Carpentry in the Library: Partnering to Give Researchers Needed Technical Skills, Sarah Clayton & Carl Grant (University of Oklahoma) Major grant-funded projects may be able to hire someone to provide basic programming and data management skills, services that have become invaluable for creating reproducible research services, but the majority cannot. Recognizing this need, the University of Oklahoma Libraries has partnered with Software Carpentry, a non-profit foundation that offers two-day, hands-on workshops on basic programming skills designed to help researchers automate and track their research processes. Each workshop is taught by library staff including experts in data management, informatics, and digital scholarship, which has provided them with a better understanding of local researchers’ needs.

Also from this meeting, released previously:

-Is the Researcher Human? Is the Librarian? Bots, Conversational User Interfaces, and Virtual Research Assistants, Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe (UIUC), Jason Griffey (Harvard)), Emily King (College of Southern Nevada), Michael Schofield (LibUX) Information seeking, retrieval, analysis, and decision-making are often discussed as human activities; however, increasingly humans rely on automation, technology surrogates, and artificial intelligence for these activities. Bots and conversational user interfaces are beginning to emerge as service surrogates in libraries. As these trends grow, libraries and information providers face questions that will change practices while potentially expanding opportunities for services. This video explores the implications of these emerging technologies and their applications for libraries and information providers.

-A Linked Data Approach for Humanities Data, Sayeed Choudhury (Johns Hopkins University) & Jaap Geraerts (University College London) The Archaeology of Reading team returns to CNI to discuss the use of linked data models and protocols to connect the various data in their innovative digital research environment, developed to research the reading practices of two prominent sixteenth century scholars. In this video, they describe the use of linked data models and protocols to connect data, facilitating study of the scholars’ pathways through content, and they explain how the systematic progression of supporting increasingly complex scholarly use cases represents an important exemplar for levering extensible, common infrastructure across a diverse range of humanities data.
