Research Portal Update - Humanities and CHED, July 2013

  1. 1. The UCT Research Portal: a (NO LONGER) head-in-the-clouds view…
  2. 2. Research Office My eResearch My Ethics Research Facilities Finance VulaLibraries and Repository My Storage My Tools My Grants HR My Staff eResearch Tab on UCT Home Page My Students My Contracts Scholarly Works Profiles Showcase = Research Office Site Concept for final model as of mid-2012: Secure access for researchers to portal; public access to RO site Search Experts
  3. 3. We’re live….
  4. 4. Home Page – accessible via standard login
  5. 5. Most accessed resource: note Research Professional Africa site is a highly comprehensive and up- to-date catalogue of Africa-specific funding opportunities worldwide
  6. 6. Increasingly popular page: access to various means of accurately assessing your own or others’ publication outputs – including informal or social media mentions
  7. 7. There are a number of SlideShare slideshows explaining how tools work, linked to via the “Research Portal News” blog on the UCT Blogs site http://blogs.uct.ac.za/blog/rese arch-portal-news
  8. 8. SciVal Spotlight allows instant evaluation of published international collaborations – right down to paper level
  9. 9. What is happening now? Phase 1, live Feb 2012 My eResearch Research Facilities VulaLibraries and Repository My Tools Created and linked / redesigned Web pages, linked a database, established Portal site NOTE: we presently do not know what to use for Portal – several options exist NOTE 2: FULL implementation has to wait for UCT Web renewal OER Scholarly work
  10. 10. What is planned for longer term? Phase 2, live by late 2013 My eResearch Research Facilities VulaLibraries and Repository My Tools Scholarly Works Profiles Create some dynamic access links to Irma / other databases, create templated Profiles which include “Scholarly Resources” – publication lists and other forms of publication NOTE: both Scholarly Resources and Profiles require significant development and policy decisions. Eg: SR not just database output; also represents “non conventional” publications for Humanities etc – video, digitised artworks? Search Experts Note: this is the Profiles module that links to the repository
  11. 11. Queensland Univ Technology Profiles: best exemplar
  12. 12. Queensland Univ Technology Profiles The Profiles are underpinned by a database and Portal – RAD – which, like the TARDIS, is far larger on the inside, and provides similar functionality to what we propose for UCT
  13. 13. Objective for UCT Profiles: 1 To reduce the number of times that a UCT academic has to provide the same information for different institutions or purposes to one time only! • To allow highly user-configurable output of curricula vitae for printing OR Web use • Use by Departments, Faculty, Bremner, the UCT Research Office, IAPO, and the NRF, to “pull” data for specific purposes into (eg) forms for: – for academic assessment and leave, – applications for travel and research – equipment funding – to harvest information on collaborations, international partners, updated research activities Examples: Research expertise, personal profiles, collaborations, publications, patents, open teaching material, reports…. Use by NRF: Synchronise information between UCT and NRF to reduce time spent on NRF systems, AND ALLOW DIRECT IMPORT OF PUBLICATION DATA
  14. 14. Scope of the Profiles NB: cross-Faculty working group approved
  15. 15. NOTE: a significant amount of information will be pre-filled from other UCT systems
  16. 16. Scholarly Works (and Open UCT) To be integrated with and to link directly to the UCT Repository
  17. 17. Scholarly Works Database DIRECT IMPORT FOR ALL SCOPUS / ISI / OTHER DATABASE PUBLICATIONS
  18. 18. What still requires serious integration? My eResearch Research Facilities VulaLibraries and Repository My Tools Research Office My Ethics Finance My Storage My Grants HR My Staff My Students Scholarly Resources Profiles Experts My Contracts All modules that get information from other systems: SAP for finances, PeopleSoft for student information, University Office for ethics, contracts and publication counts …but IRMA / University Office may do some of this for us???
  19. 19. …and especially this…B-) LINKS TO SLIDESHOWS ON eRES RESOURCES
  20. 20. SIMPLY A FORUM FOR RAVING
