Broad principles• Collections to support teaching, learning and
research
• A balance between teaching and research is necessary
• The library’s collection spend will be no less than 45% of total budget
• No more than 80% of collections spend will be on subscriptions
• Preference for digital format
• Collection use will be assessed
• Lesser-used materials will be stored off-site

Two sides of the argument
Librarians complain about pricing
•Price increases greater than budget uplift•Big deals limit ability to cancel titles•Books are sacrificed for journals•Costs would be lower in a not-for-profit model•‘Our academics did the work - why should we pay (so much)?’
Publishers point to explosion in output and
value they add
•Great increase in number of articles•Cost per download decreasing•Big deals offer wider access at discount•e-journal transition required massive investment•‘We will try open access if we can cover costs’
Support open access Find new sources of funds
![Page 14: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How publishers add value
• Sorting and assessment of research outputs;
• Publication of primary literature, supplementary data, and patents;
• Aggregation of content;
• Distillation of evidence – reference works and meta-reviews;
• Creating standards and consensus seeking;
• Granularisation, tagging, and prioritisation of content, identification, and application of rules;
• Systems integration, data structure and exchange standards, content maintenance, and updating procedure;
• Integration of content from multiple sources;
• Development of workflow analytics and best practice benchmarking at the level of the individual, department, institution, and geopolitical entity.

The big deal - librarians
• Access to vast numbers of titles
• Bundles bought on basis of package value - titles, downloads etc - than on assessment of individual title quality
• Harder to select or cancel individual titles
• Journal brands replaced by package brands
![Page 16: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The big deal - clients
• Access to vast quantities of content
• Access to deep archives
• Wider dissemination of publications
• Search and discovery tools - eg Google Scholar and Summon - taking people direct to article
• Clients expect sophisticated data mining tools
![Page 17: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The big deal - publishers
• Economies of scale in the big few making it hard for smaller publishers to compete
• Only the big few can afford to develop sophisticated services
• Bundling has allowed publishers to drop major price increases for specific titles for incremental increases on the bundle
• This is justified often by quality rather than quantity

An Impacts Framework
http://www.humanities.org.au/Events/NSCF/NSCF2007/PowerPoints/NSCF2007-Houghton.ppt
RESEARCHMost/Many served,
but not all
CONSUMERS/SOCIETYFew served
INDUSTRY/GOVERNMENT
Part served, but not all
SUBSCRIPTION PUBLISHINGCurrent reach
OPEN ACCESSPotentially serves all
RESEARCHAccess for all, research participation based on merit, not means.
Potential benefits:Speeding up discovery.Reduction of duplicative research.Fewer blind alleys.New research possibilities.Better educational outcomes & enhanced research capabilities.
SOCIETYAccess as needed, informed consumers (e.g. health and education).
Potential benefits:Contribution to the 'informed citizen' and 'informed consumer', with implications for better use of health and education services, better consumption choices, etc. leading to greater welfare benefits, which in turn may lead to productivity improvements.
INDUSTRY(1) Access as needed,
more informed producers & policy.
(2) New businesses add value to content (e.g. Weather Derivatives).
Potential benefits:Accelerate and widen
opportunities for collaboration,
commercialisation & adoption.
The potential for much wider access for
GPs/nurses, teachers/students, and
small firms in consulting, engineering,
ICT, nanotechnology,biotechnology, etc.
The potential for the emergence of new
industries based upon the open access
content.

• Currently, access to research is restricted and the means to gain access are determined by a market in which a small number of publishers have a dominant position.

•It is not for either publishers or academics to decide who should, and who should not, be allowed to read scientific journal articles. We are encouraged by the growing interest in research findings shown by the public. It is in society’s interest that public understanding of science should increase. Increased public access to research findings should be encouraged by publishers, academics and Government alike.

Open access mandates
![Page 47: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Three broad sources
• Government - eg European Union, NIH• Research funder - eg Research Councils UK• Employer - eg Harvard University
![Page 48: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Broad aim of mandates
• To make publications arising from research freely available - through green and/or gold• For example:–a university may require that its researchers deposit
copies of publications in its institutional repository (aim: showcase institution’s research);–a funder may offer money to cover costs of gold OA (aim:
inform the public about research results)
![Page 49: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Main developments 2012-2013• Research Councils UK
- all articles arising from RCUK-funded research to be open access - via gold or green
- funding of ~$25million to be provided in 2013-14
• European Union- recommending member states to devise and implement
OA policies- OA requirements for research funded by EU
• USA- OSTP announced plans to extend NIH mandate to other
federal funding agencies

•Access to scholarly literature is an iterative process
•Researchers build upon the work of others as they make new discoveries and contribute new ideas
•Without access to literature, this would not be possible
![Page 51: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
•As we have seen already, the vast proportion of scholarly publishing is undertaken by a few companies and societies
•Libraries in the west pay vast amounts to access content
•Libraries in developing countries simply cannot afford to acquire even a small portion of literature

Funding
• Ever-increasing expenditure on healthcare in most nations will support continued expansion of the medical subsegment of the STM market
• Publishers will look to offset the decline in print revenues through new solutions - eg workflow and performance measurement
• R&D growth in Asia and the US will continue to underpin the STM market

In the print library• Costs for users of accessing local
collections were low: time, travel and productive research
• Costs for libraries were high: buildings, infrastructure, staff, acquisitions, storage, maintenance
• The quality of library corresponded with the quality of research
• Distinguished research teams were built around distinguished library collections
• The payoff on investment was strong and in turn resulted in greater investment

• Publication of research findings facilitates the development of knowledge and collaboration, both of which are fundamental to scholarship
• New technology reduces costs of publication and dissemination, improving access
• Expensive production and distribution costs diminish and interventions can make access possible for all
• Increasingly, we observe that apart from the most esoteric, that which is not online is unread

Current priorities in academic libraries
1. Continue and complete migration from print to electronic and realign service operationsRetire legacy collectionsContinue to repurpose library as primary learning spaceReposition library expertise and resources to be more closely embedded in research and teaching enterprise outside libraryExtend focus of collection development from external purchase to local curation
![Page 73: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
• Accelerate the reduction and removal of routine transactions
- Increase use of web-based activity
- Increase use of self-service
- Close labour-intensive low volume services
• Prefer digital form at all times
• Patron-driven acquisition as supplement
• Better discovery services - eg Summon
![Page 74: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
• Identify opportunities to leverage economies of scale
- Buy publishers’ bundles to reduce need for selection decisions
- Consolidate distributed collections, warehousing or disposing of obsolete material
- Consolidate and multi-purpose service points

JournalsCurrent state
Authors transfer copyright to publishers
Publishers sell access, often in title bundles
Gaps in access filled by slow and expensive inter-library loans
Future state
Authors reserve rights and self-archive
Subscription models blend with on-demand and open access models
Researchers have scope to make data accessible, share pre-prints etc
Current barriers
Research assessment, promotion and tenure tied to traditional publishing in high impact journals
Publishers concerned about open access ‘tipping point’
![Page 76: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Book migrationCurrent state
Large collections of unused books occupying prime real estate
Duplicate holding across a university, consortium, region
Books purchased just in case, and before the go OOP
Future state
Ebook lists larger than physical collection
Legacy collections shared through offsite consortial stores
Ebooks purchased only when required (PDA)
Current barriers
Copyright limitations on orphaned works and local digitisationEbook versions of academic books not always availableEbook procurement and licensing more complex than printDRM limitations and transfer to mobile devices

• Perpetual access to online tools - with Portico and LOCKSS backup
• Off-site (or onsite) warehouse
• Collaborative retention
• Disposal - not every library is a library of last resort and we need to ditch sentiment over “destruction” of books

Methodology
• Contingent valuation
• Respondents were presented with different hypothetical scenarios
• They were asked about their willingness to pay, and the amount they would expect to pay

Key impacts of free access to information on research
• Access to information is indispensible for research (91% strongly agree)
• Maintain comprehensive overview of developments in field (77%)
• Eliminate unproductive time (74%)
• Avoiding duplication of research done elsewhere (50%)
![Page 86: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
Funding scenarios• Current spent on information resources across
the three sites is $2,496 per capita
• Respondents were asked to recommend a budget for the purchase of single-user access to the resources they need - average $3,511 per capita
• Respondents were also asked to estimate the costs if they had to be self-sufficient (purchases, travel to libraries etc) - average $5,894 per capita
![Page 87: Library Collections to Maximize Research Impact & Student Achievement 優化學術研究影響力及學生成績的館藏 Keith Webster The 11 th Annual Library Leadership Institute](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e535503460f94b48b40/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
Summary finding
• The final scenario would result in total costs to the institution of $81.4m compared to actual spend of $34.5m - a financial return of 136 percent
