At the same time, shrinking library acquisition budgets coupled with increasing journal subscription prices are challenging scholarly content buyers to do ever more with less. With this dynamic, document delivery, one of the more traditional functions within research libraries, continues to stand as an important component for the advancement of research and scholarly communications. This NFAIS Webinar, Tuesday, October 11, will examine the role of "Document Delivery in the Information Ecosystem" today and in the future. This webinar will cover the value that partnerships between publishers and content aggregators provide their customers for document delivery. These partnerships, among other benefits, complement subscription sales and foster expansion into new markets including non-subscribing libraries, corporations and unaffiliated knowledge workers. Presenters: Ian Palmer, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, Reprints Desk Shannon Pritting, Director of Library and Learning Resources, SUNY Polytechnic Institute Christopher Mundy, Senior Manager, Knowledge Management, Intercept Pharmaceuticals In this 90-minute Webinar, Reprints Desk's Ian Palmer, SUNY Poly's Shannon Pritting and Intercept Pharmaceuticals' Christopher Mundy will discuss: * Perspectives on document delivery from both academic and corporate buyers * How data-driven decision-making increases subscription and individual article sales * Why customers choose on-demand document delivery to access content * How libraries determine which journals to subscribe to and from which journals to purchase single articles * The role of Interlibrary loan services as part of content access solutions Register today for this event and learn more about the state of document delivery in the context of today's information ecosystem.

DC Message-ID: ==================================================================== Workshop - The Internet of Things: Impacting Scientific Data and Information Flows Hosted by: CENDI, NFAIS, Research Data Alliance/US (RDA/US) and the National Academies Board on Research Data and Information Date: Friday, December 9, 2016 Time: 9:00 am - 4:30 am EDT Location: The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, Keck Center, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Room 100, Washington DC Registration: http://www.nfais.org/index.php?option=com_mc&view=mc&mcid=72&eventId=515378&orgId=nfais&recurringId=0 ==================================================================== What's Covered: The Internet of Things (IoT) has become more than just a buzzword in technology circles. It's even fair to say the IoT has evolved into a mature concept impacting a broad range of business sectors, especially information services and scholarly research. Dubbed the "the infrastructure of the information society" by the Global Standards Initiative on Internet of Things, the IoT essentially is the practice of connecting any device or physical structure - including vehicles or buildings - to the Internet wherein data can be collected and exchanged. The IoT represents significant potential to advance scholarly research and communication, yet what are the implications for government agencies and information services when it comes to the IoT? How will researchers leverage the IoT to enable groundbreaking advances in their fields of study? What role are federal agency libraries playing, in concert with their private sector partners, to take advantage of the IoT in fulfilling their missions? Attendees will learn about: * Policies and standards relative to the IoT * Case studies in a variety of disciplines * The impact of the IoT on different information services communities, such as libraries, publishers, data centers and more Presenters: Amanda Wilson, Chair, CENDI, Director, National Transportation Library Chris Greer, Director of the Smart Grid and Cyber-Physical Systems Program Office and National Coordinator for Smart Grid Interoperability, NIST Fran Berman, PhD, Chair, Research Data Alliance Larry John, PhD, Principal, ANSER, NIST Framework for Cyber-Physical Systems Data Interop Subcommittee Michael Huerta, PhD, Associate Director of Program Development, National Library of Medicine Andrew Maffei, Senior Information Systems Specialist, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Peter L.
