Valerie.mccutcheon@glasgow.ac.uk: /* Purpose */

==Purpose==

The University of Glasgow has developed open access functionality for EPrints to fill the gap after RCUK (from RIOXX project) and the new REF Open Access plug-in. Research Organisations need additonal information. We now store all of our open access information in EPrints with no need for spreadsheets. See http://e2eoa.org/ The code is available at https://github.com/eprintsug/OpenAccess. Here is a short informal speel http://e2eoa.org/wp-admin/post.php?post=549&action=edit. We will be amending the functionality accommodate any further gaps identified. Interested? Contact: Michael.Eadie@glasgow.ac.uk or Valerie.McCutcheon@glasgow.ac.uk if you are planning some work in this area. We are in dialogue with the Jisc Monitor project and have tested output from EPrints with the tools they are developing. Let’s work together. We can offer you a demo and would love to hear what you think is missing from what we have created.

==Purpose==

Last Updated 18/11/15

Many research organisations are now asking how they can link funders to research outputs in EPrints. Some organisations have already addressed this:

Glasgow 2010 linked Research System award data to EPrints
Southampton 2014 linked award data to EPrints in partnership with ULCC. Reading are also involved in testing this functionality.

We have had initial discussions about how to take the best practice from these solutions and deliver a standard EPrints plug-in.

We will be producing a discussion document soon and advertising for input via the EPrints Google Group.

==Purpose==

The RDM working group will share experience of using EPrints to manage research data.

If you do not already have research data management functionality in EPrints we recommend you use this plug-in (link to). This was created as part of some Jisc projects which then amended this particular plug-in to accommodate requirements from various research organisations.

Community Contributions Day November 2015

2015-11-18T09:59:11Z

Valerie.mccutcheon@glasgow.ac.uk: /* Jumping In */

This page has been created in the run-up to the EPrints Community Contributions day on November 18th, 2015

== Objectives ==

This event is intended to bring the all parts of the EPrints community together to improve the software and documentation. We hope to achieve:

* code improvements
* wiki curation
* training and demonstration videos
* community members interacting and training each other

== Event Run Up ==

Things for participants to do before the event:

* Register for the Wiki via the EPrints LDAP server at [http://trac.eprints.org/ldap/ http://trac.eprints.org/ldap/]
* If you have an a suggestion for an interest group, add it below
* Please add your name to an interest group that looks interesting (see [[Training_Video:EPrints_Wiki_Basics]] for how to edit the wiki)

== On the Day ==

=== Jumping In ===

So, you have time to contribute and need to know how to get started. Here are your options:

* Pick an interest group below, and join it
* If you don't know how to join, contact one of the event organisers
** Adam Field
*** @gobfrey on twitter
*** af05v@ecs.soton.ac.uk
** Valerie McCutcheon
***valerie.mccutcheon@glasgow.ac.uk
*** 0141-330-2674
** Rachel Proudfoot
*** 0113 343 4554

=== Interest Groups ===

Any contribution that can be made is welcome, whether it's a minor edit to a wiki page or a bugfix. However, it may be profitable to run a number of discussion groups in the morning around areas of interest. These discussion groups can then set up work to be accomplished in the afternoon.

* 10:00 - 11:00 Interest groups meet (skype, google hangout?), make decisions and assign tasks
** What problem are we solving?
** How will we work?
** What communication platform will we use? Skype, Google Hangouts, Google Docs, EMail?
** Who will do what?
* 11:00 - 13:00 Morning Contributions
* 14:00 - 16:00 Afternoon Contributions
* 16:00 - 16:30 Interest groups wrap-up and reporting.

Each interest group should have a leader who is responsible for chairing the initial meeting, making sure the logistics run smoothly and creating some kind of record of the day (blog post, wiki page, etc).

==== Group 1: Community Training Course ====

The Google Hangout for this is at [https://plus.google.com/events/cne9khobpvgnbcib2o31agg38oc https://plus.google.com/events/cne9khobpvgnbcib2o31agg38oc]

This interest group is concerned with the wiki page at http://wiki.eprints.org/w/EPrints_Training_Course.

Areas of Discussion
* Standard layout and content for training video pages
* Content of the training course
* Production of new content
* Linking to other wiki pages

Members:
* Adam Field (willing to lead the group)
* Alan Stiles (alternatively contributing to Group 2)
* Lizz Jennings (likely to switch between this and Group 2)
* Mick Eadie
* George Mamalakis (may also help in some bug reports in Group 2 and also help in creating some Bazaar packages we've already started)

==== Group 2: Technical ====

This interest group will be looking at Github, folding in pull requests and evaluating bugs.

Get on the google hangout now [https://plus.google.com/events/ch5sefk3o51evmuotqvnnpi0im8 https://plus.google.com/events/ch5sefk3o51evmuotqvnnpi0im8]

Topics of Discussion
* Vagrant build - see: https://github.com/eprintsug/eprints-vagrant (Good work! EP-Kudos and a cream bun to Robert Doiel!)

Members
* Jiadi Yao
* Alan Stiles (alternative contributing to Group 1)
* Lizz Jennings (likely to switch between this and Group 1)
* Mick Eadie
* Patrick McSweeney (will lead the session ;o)
* John Salter (will assist with the leading of the session)

==== Group 3: Community Contributions, Best Practices and Processes ====

This group will look at how barriers to community contributions (at all levels) can be lowered and community engagement can be promoted. We'll also look at community best practices and processes in EPrints.

Members

* Rachel Proudfoot - skype 'rachel_proudfoot'
* Valerie McCutcheon -skype 'mccutchv'
* Adam Field (in and out, mainly in group 1)

Working Document (Google doc)
* [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YYqeB0r5S8A9rYO9UZN-SoQLBLb2B7WQuP_WW3EKXEU/edit?usp=sharing Group 3 Capture document] - if you can't edit it, contact Rachel or Valerie

Possible subtopics - what do users want?

* User friendly topic guide on wiki
* Impact
* Open Access - drafting community requirements for a standard functionality in EPrints.

=== Independent Contribution ===

Participants are encouraged to join an interest group, but have the option of working independently on their own pet project or objective. Please put your name in the members list below, with a brief description of what you will be progressing.

Members:

* Luke Skywalker (I'll be researching the Force)

=== Logistics ===

Each interest group should decide on the appropriate platform to use for communications and coordination.

== Post Event ==

It would be appreciated if each team could produce a write-up of the days activities for the benefit of future events and to show the value of the day. It should be no more than 400 words and a bulleted list of outcomes. Feel free to post these on any blog or platform you wish, but Adam Field would quite like to gather them all together in a blog post about the day.

Community Contributions Day November 2015

2015-11-16T11:42:16Z

Valerie.mccutcheon@glasgow.ac.uk: /* Interest Groups */

This page has been created in the run-up to the EPrints Community Contributions day on November 18th, 2015

== Objectives ==

This event is intended to bring the all parts of the EPrints community together to improve the software and documentation. We hope to achieve:

* code improvements
* wiki curation
* training and demonstration videos
* community members interacting and training each other

== Event Run Up ==

Things for participants to do before the event:

* Register for the Wiki via the EPrints LDAP server at [http://trac.eprints.org/ldap/ http://trac.eprints.org/ldap/]
* If you have an a suggestion for an interest group, add it below
* Please add your name to an interest group that looks interesting.

== On the Day ==

=== Jumping In ===

So, you have time to contribute and need to know how to get started. Here are your options:

* Pick an interest group below, and join it
* If you don't know how to join, contact one of the event organisers
** Adam Field
*** @gobfrey on twitter
*** af05v@ecs.soton.ac.uk
** Valerie McCutcheon
***valerie.mccutcheon@glasgow.ac.uk

=== Interest Groups ===

Any contribution that can be made is welcome, whether it's a minor edit to a wiki page or a bugfix. However, it may be profitable to run a number of discussion groups in the morning around areas of interest. These discussion groups can then set up work to be accomplished in the afternoon.

* 10:00 - 11:00 Interest groups meet (zkype, google hangout?), make decisions and assign tasks
** What problem are we solving?
** How will we work?
** What communication platform will we use? Skype, Google Hangouts, Google Docs, EMail?
** Who will do what?
* 11:00 - 13:00 Morning Contributions
* 14:00 - 16:00 Afternoon Contributions
* 16:00 - 16:30 Interest groups wrap-up and reporting.

Each interest group should have a leader who is responsible for chairing the initial meeting, making sure the logistics run smoothly and creating some kind of record of the day (blog post, wiki page, etc).
