This file contains the materials for two mock negotiations of scholarly publishing contracts. The first is for a journal article and the second is for a scholarly monograph. Both sets of materials include role sheets for two participants and a mock contract.

This record includes training materials associated with 'Network Know-how and Data Handling' workshops offered by Australia's Academic Research Network (AARNet). The workshops are delivered to library and eResearch staff at universities, as well as researcher communities, as train-the-trainer events, part of a broader infrastructure literacy strategy.

This workshop is a ‘train-the-trainer’ session that covers topics such as jargon busting, network literacy and data movement solutions. The workshop will also provide a peek at some collaborative research tools such as Jupyter Notebooks and CloudStor. You will learn about networks, integrated tools, data and storage and where all these things fit in the researcher’s toolkit.

This workshop is targeted at staff who would like to be more confident in giving advice to researchers about the options available to them. It is especially tailored for those with little to no technical knowledge and includes a hands-on component, using basic programming commands, but requires no previous knowledge of programming.

Today, we're going to combine the artificial neuron we created last week into an artificial neural network. Artificial neural networks are better than other methods for more complicated tasks like image recognition, and the key to their success is their hidden layers. We'll talk about how the math of these networks work and how using many hidden layers allows us to do deep learning. Neural networks are really powerful at finding patterns in data which is why they've become one of the most dominant machine learning technologies used today.

The New England Collaborative Data Management Curriculum (NECDMC) project is led by the Lamar Soutter Library at the University of Massachusetts Medical School in partnership with several libraries in the New England region.

NECDMC is an instructional tool for teaching data management best practices to undergraduates, graduate students, and researchers in the health sciences, sciences, and engineering disciplines. Each of the curriculum’s seven online instructional modules aligns with the National Science Foundation’s data management plan recommendations and addresses universal data management challenges. Included in the curriculum is a collection of actual research cases that provides a discipline specific context to the content of the instructional modules. These cases come from a range of research settings such as clinical research, biomedical labs, an engineering project, and a qualitative behavioral health study. Additional research cases will be added to the collection on an ongoing basis. Each of the modules can be taught as a stand-alone class or as part of a series of classes. Instructors are welcome to customize the content of the instructional modules to meet the learning needs of their students and the policies and resources at their institutions

Through the Public Library Partnerships Project (PLPP), DPLA has been working with existing DPLA Service Hubs to provide digital skills training for public librarians and connect them sustainably with state and regional resources for digitizing, describing, and exhibiting their cultural heritage content.

During the project, DPLA collaborated with trainers at Digital Commonwealth, Digital Library of Georgia, Minnesota Digital Library, Montana Memory Project, and Mountain West Digital Library to write and iterate a workshop curriculum based on documented best practices. Through the project workshops, we used this curriculum to introduce 150 public librarians to the digitization process.

Now at the end of the project, we’ve made this curriculum available in a self-guided version intended for digitization beginners from a variety of cultural heritage institutions. Each module includes a video presentation, slides with notes in Powerpoint, and slides in PDF. Please feel free to share, reuse, and adapt these materials.

**This resource is published by The News Evaluator ProjectThe News Evaluator ​​project started in 2017 as a mass experiment run as part of the European Researchers’ Night in Sweden. A second phase of the project began in 2018 and continues until spring 2020. The aim is to develop a tool that can be used by both schools and the general public.

Publisher Overview:News Guard is the publisher of this resource. Branding itself as "The Internet Trust Tool," News Guard is an organization that provides various tools for verifying misinformation online. Key features of News Guard include ratings of online articles based on their nine journalistic standards, news literacy education resources, and background information tools to analyze articles' site ownership.This quiz is one of several resources offered by NewsGuard, funded by Microsoft. 

The digital age has created the need for a new kind of literacy-a literacy that empowers news consumers to determine whether information is credible, reliable and truthful. This is not just a skill; it is a new core competency for the 21st century. So-called “fake news” is hard to spot and spreads easily, leading to disagreements over basic facts. The antidote to the growing challenges posed by this digital revolution is news literacy. This mini news literacy course includes two three-hour sessions that will teach anyone to become a more critical consumer of news.

This Canvas Course was developed to support faculty in learning more about Open Educational Resources and other affordable textbook options. It includes modules on understanding OER; finding and evaluating OER; mapping OER to learning outcomes; adopting, adapting, and creating OER; and identifying other affordable learning materials (low cost / no cost). Support for the course was provided by the Alabama Commission on Higher Education and modules are modeled after the Creative Commons Certificate course, Cleveland State University’s Textbook Affordability Summer Symposium, and other resources cited in the course. To request Canvas course cartridges, please email malonecenter@montevallo.edu.

We intend this book to act as a guide writ large for would-be champions of OER, that anyone—called to action by the example set by our chapter authors—might serve as guides themselves. The following chapters tap into the deep experience of practitioners who represent a meaningful cross section of higher education institutions in North America. It is our hope that the examples and discussions presented by our authors will facilitate connections among practitioners, foster the development of best practices for OER adoption and creation, and more importantly, lay a foundation for novel, educational excellence.

DRAFTEstrella Mountain Community College Library is a fantastic resource for students, staff, and faculty, but it can also be daunting.  Library faculty and staff are here to help you overcome your research hesitancy or just find something to engage your curiosity.Library physical items, including humans that serve as your personal guides, are located in Estrella Hall.  A wealth of material is also online at library.estrellamountain.edu, including research databases, How To guides, and Ask A Librarian 24/7 online chat.This resource will help remove some of the (stumbling blocks?) to accessing library resources.

These slides and handout were developed for a 60-min. cross-training OER session with college staff, and are therefore very general in nature. These materials could be adapted for any general introduction to OER basics and Creative Commons licenses.
