Library 2.0 event at Libraries of University of Groningen

Last Thursday, December 13th a special program around Library2.0 took place. Some 45 colleagues attended and participated in a work-session to know more about Web2.0 stuff. I am not sure if the link to the photo's is meant to be public. They published it on the Library Intranet site. If I get a green light, it will be up here asap. Here's the list of the speakers:

  • Kees Westerkamp (introduction & chair)
  • Gosse Bouma: about the Semantic Web
  • Henk Ellermann ( a reaction on Gosse's talk and a short but clear opinion about the context & content)
  • Alice Doek: on web 2.0 at the Library of University of Amsterdam (UvA)
  • Guus van den Brekel: "Library2.0 is not a Tool, but a Setting" about Library2.0 and Tools for Users at the Central Medical Library of the UMCG

Two YouTube movies were shown:

'23 Things' This was mentioned several time and refers to the website "23 Dingen'. '23 Dingen' is a learning project for Web 2.0 created for Library staff.

Hallo Guus,

Het is een kleine opmerking maar mijn voornaam is Kees (met een K dus) :-)

De verwarring komt omdat mijn e-mailadres met een 'c' begint. Dit heeft te maken met mijn doopnamen.

Groet
Kees

Ok Kees. Ik heb het aangepast en ook doorgegeven aan de organisatie voor aanpassing op het bibliotheek intranet.

Updates from Journal Apps (BrowZine, docwise, ReadbyQxMD, Docphin)

Here a short overview of all new updates around the Journal apps we are supporting. Personally I am most excited about the anouncements of " docwise " making big steps to keep up with BrowZine & Read (Integration -"Open in"- with Dropbox, Evernote and more, save and email full text articles), but making a hug jump with unique features, like shareable Folders with docwise users ánd a RSS reader feature (boldly called Google Reader replacement!). Bring it on! BrowZine : just published the Android Version of their App to which the CMB UMCG now has a subscription. To be downloaded from Google Play Store or Amazon App Store the following publishers have been added  Project MUSE Cambridge University Press American Marketing Association Academy of Management Royal Society of Chemistry Institute of Physics American Physical Society Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) American Geophysical Union International Society for Optics a...

PubMed Search & News Widget

OK, I think Toolbars are great for quick easy access to search databases, free or licensed databases. Users can use this jumpstart search to get to their preferred search engines direct from their browser window. But not everybody is allowed to install browser plugins or add-ons. To distribute the Toolbar functionality like the search & news options, I create derived widgets that can be used as a whole in many social networks , websites and intranet sites, everywhere where it is allowed to put up html. The PubMed Search & News Widget is the latest one. I just got confirmation from Widgetbox that they approved it. "Derived" in this case, means, the widget is using the PubMed Toolbar installed custom searches and the installed rss-feed of PubMed New & Noteworthy .

UPDATE:  Clarivate Analytics Acquires Research Startup Kopernio to Accelerate Pace of Scientific Innovation I am currently testing 4 browser extensions in Chrome that can help me find the PDF i need. They seem to be popping up like dandelions in the fields ;-) (Please read my post on ALL possible options to get to a PDF:  http://digicmb.blogspot.nl/2017/03/how-to-get-pdf-infographic.html ) Here is a first glance of what they do. For testing i used this article: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2016.10.008   (not free or open access) Kopernio (previously  Canary Haz ( http://kopernio.com) Note this is a .com extension. This  new company  has been founded just 8 months ago. The Kopernio  extension was released just in March 2017. Currently the Kopernio button is in alpha-testing and so far it seems free. The previous name appeared to be a tribute to the #ICANHAZPDF movement (requesting pdf's via Twitter with this hashtag). ...
