ISBN 978-90-77484-10-4 © TextRelease, 2008 Foreword Foreword “Grey Foundations in Information Landscape” The Ninth International Conference on Grey Literature sought to map the infrastructure in which grey literature is embedded. This concerted drill in the field of information also stands to further a framework for shared understanding. GL9 surveyed the information landscape by exploiting newfound and existing grey resources, by utilizing tools developed in part or whole for processing grey literature, and by clearly demonstrating uses and applications for research and policy driven settings. The title of the conference “Grey Foundations in Information Landscape” encompassed five main themes: • Tools for Publishing, Archiving, and Accessing Grey Literature • Use and Impact of Grey Literature in Scholarly Communication • Grey Literature in Central and Eastern Europe • New Discoveries in Grey Literature for Research Communities • Education and Grey Literature The conference venue provided information professionals with a variety of platforms for presenting and communicating their research results. Plenary and Panel sessions were held in the Antwerp Provincial Council Hall. And, in the meeting area adjacent to the lobby, an ‘Information Walk-Thru’ accommodated Product and Service Reviews as well as Poster presentations. On behalf of the Conference Host and Sponsors, the Program Committee, and Chairpersons, I would like to thank the authors and co-authors for their content contributions to these proceedings. Likewise, I welcome those reading these conference proceedings to voice their comments and/or recommendations either directly to the authors or to GreyNet, Grey Literature Network Service. Finally, I would like to bring to your attention the recent Call-for-Papers for GL10, the Tenth International Conference on Grey Literature, which will be held in Science Park Amsterdam on 8-9 December 2008.

    104 LRTS 56(2) Notes on Operations Integration of a Research Management System and an OAI-PMH Compatible ETDs Repository at the University of Novi Sad, Republic of Serbia Lidija Ivanović, Dragan Ivanović, and Dušan Surla This paper discusses the extension of the Current Research Information System (CRIS) at the University of Novi Sad, Republic of Serbia, to incorporate elec- tronic theses and dissertations (ETDs). Data describing ETDs is entered using a web application that enables researchers to input their own data through a webpage without knowing the standards on which the system is based. The ETDs repository can exchange data with CRIS institutional repositories and Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations members. In this way, the interna- tional visibility of theses and dissertations created at the University of Novi Sad is enhanced without duplicating data entry in various systems. This approach has been verified and tested on a dataset of theses and dissertations at the University of Novi Sad. ublic access to theses and dissertations via the Internet is important for the P development of a knowledge-based society. A knowledge-based society relies on the knowledge of its citizens to drive entrepreneurship, innovation, and vitality of that society’s economy. A knowledge-based society possesses a community of scholars, researchers, research networks, engineers, technicians, and businesses engaged in research and the production of high-technology goods and provision Lidija Ivanović ([email protected]. ac.rs) is a teaching assistant, Faculty of of services.

  • From Delft Repository to DARE – the Developments of OAI in the Netherlands
    From repository to eternity Just der Leeuwe and Mirella van de Velde Serials – 19(2), July 2006 From repository to eternity: from Delft repository to DARE – the developments of OAI in The Netherlands To meet the growing demand for accessibility of scientific output, a national-level co-operation has been established in The Netherlands to implement local repositories, known as Digital Academic REpositories (DARE). The repository content will be included in the e-Depot of the National Library of The Netherlands (KB) and therefore in their digital preservation strategies, guaranteeing the accessibility for future generations.

  • GL9 Paper Final
    ACCESSING GREY LITERATURE IN AN INTEGRATED ENVIRONMENT OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH INFORMATION Elly Dijk; Chris Baars; Arjan Hogenaar; Marga van Meel Department of Research Information Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) PO Box 95110 1090 HC Amsterdam The Netherlands [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract The DARE programme was initiated in the Netherlands by the SURF Foundation, the Dutch universities, the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW), and the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO). The objective of the programme was to enable digital access to research results of all the Dutch scientific institutions. Since the DARE programme (2003 - 2006), all the institutes involved have had their own repositories. The DAREnet portal website (www.darenet.nl/en) gives access to the content of all the repositories. As from 1 January 2007, KNAW Research Information has taken over responsibility for the DAREnet website, formerly maintained by the SURF Foundation. DAREnet currently contains three sections: DAREnet proper, Cream of Science, and Promise of Science. In November 2007 DAREnet provides access to some 138,000 digital publications at 19 institutions. Cream of Science showcases prominent research from the Netherlands. It lists over 200 top Dutch academics, providing worldwide access to more than 48,000 publications. About 60 percent of these can be accessed full-text (PDF). Promise of Science enables full-text search of over 16,000 e-theses. In all, some 30 percent of the objects can be listed as grey literature. These grey publications have always been hard to find but can now easily be accessed in DAREnet.

In particular, there has been a tremendous growth in the size and cost of the primary journal literature. With prices continuing to rise at a rate greater than the general price index, the current scholarly communication system is becoming more and more unaffordable.

  • Elly Dijk Worldwide Access to Research Information in the Netherlands
    forschungsinformation IV 45 Elly Dijk Worldwide access to research information in the Netherlands DAREnet and NOD integrated into the NARCIS portal Worldwide access to Dutch academic research information is ensured by the portals of the Research Information department of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sci- ences (KNAW). The department is responsible for: 1. the Dutch Research Database, NOD, which is the national current Research Information System, 2. the DAREnet website, which gives open access to full-text academic publications and 3. NARCIS, a scientific portal which not only provides access to the information stored in NOD and DAREnet, but also offers data sets and scientific news (www.narcis.info). 4. DAREnet and NOD were integrated into NARCIS in June 2008. DARE The development of repositories in the Netherlands started in January 2003 with the launch of the Digital Academic REpositories (or DARE) programme. The goal of the DARE programme was to provide better access to the results of publicly funded academic research. The programme allows authors to post their publications in an Institutional Repository (IR). All the universities in the Netherlands were participating, as were the KNAW, the NWO (the Dutch Research Council) and the National Library (KB). This has given DARE a unique national status. SURFfoundation – the ICT partner organisation for higher education and research – has been coordinating the project. During the first year an infrastructure of institutional academic repositories was set up based on the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH). Every institution was (and still is) responsible for its own repository; the participants share experience and knowledge to achieve the goals of developing and populating the repositories.
