  6. 6. A centre of expertise in digital information managementwww.ukoln.ac.ukCRIS adoption in UK HE• Symplectic ‘publications’ product launched in 2005– CERIF compliant data model in 2009• 1st UK Pure system - mid 2009 (St Andrews/Aberdeen)• 1st UK CONVERIS system - beginning 2010 (Cranfield)• Intensive CRIS procurement in 2011, slowed down since…– eg between May and October 2011 UK Pure users grew from 7 to 17– 2 new Pure users since March 2012• Now 57 CERIF CRIS users in UK= 33.7% adoption of CERIF in higher education institutions(was 30.7% in March 2012)• Although eg in Russell Group – large majority have CRIS• Also - Research in View (TR), Dspace CRIS...

A centre of expertise in digital information managementwww.ukoln.ac.ukREF is painful!Research Excellence Framework = UK research assessmentsystem, used to allocate funding…•Biggest research information management issue for institutions•Key driver for CRIS adoption•Majority agreed CRIS functionality to support REF met keyrequirements• although impossible to meet every single requirement• two said vendor late in providing REF functionality• one underestimated implementation time needed, so CRIS onlybeing used partially – rest in spreadsheets…• most reported gripes from individuals• using CRIS saved time
  10. 10. A centre of expertise in digital information managementwww.ukoln.ac.ukManaging research data• Next most immediate issue– under discussion but many putting off decisions until after REF• Difficult to address – large, disparate datasets for differentsubject areas– “don’t know what to do”– “too many variations in research data for a single template”– “academics using range of external data archives”• Pure user group drafting list of required fields• Some concern whether CERIF is keeping up with demands• Bath developing standalone pilot data registry in EPrints – tolink with Pure in longer term (Strathclyde also consideringEPrints, with Pure as catalogue)• Another looking at Dspace

A centre of expertise in digital information managementwww.ukoln.ac.ukReplacing IR with CRIS?• Ongoing discussion at many institutions• Most continuing with both repository and CRIS– CRIS populates IR (one user interface)– Integration works well for most• Exceptions:– 1 of interviewees using CRIS to provide IRfunctionality already– 1 on verge… ‘fairly sure will go ahead’
  12. 12. A centre of expertise in digital information managementwww.ukoln.ac.ukCERIF views/engagement• Not much change• most have basic understanding only• no time/staff resources to take further• most still rely on external expertise: vendor/user group• “as a manager, I’m happy to be protected!”• some had planned to get involved in CERIF afterimplementation – not happened – other priorities eg REF…• “There still isn’t a really clear business driver for CERIFeffort”• “Fair bit of hype about CERIF a few years ago – but nolonger talked about so much”• One user with CERIF expertise had changed view:“Suppliers have won the CERIF battle for us, now we don’thave to worry”
