During the “NISO update” session at the NISO Plus 2021 conference, which took place online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, members of the KBART (Knowledge Base and Related Tools) Standing Committee presented their plans and work toward KBART Phase III, a revision of the KBART Recommended Practice. In an interactive breakout session, they sought input from attendees on how KBART is being used and what new content types it should support. Presenters from the KBART Standing Committee were Noah Levin (Independent Professional), Stephanie Doellinger (OCLC, Inc.), Robert Heaton (Utah State University), and Andrée Rathemacher (University of Rhode Island). Assisting them in preparing the presentation were Jason Friedman (Canadian Research Knowledge Network), Sheri Meares (EBSCO Information Services), Benjamin Johnson (ProQuest), Elif Eryilmaz-Sigwarth (Springer Nature), and Nettie Lagace (NISO).

This article explores the background and process that led to the merger of the Canadian Research Knowledge Network / Réseau Canadien de deocumentation pour la recherceh and Canadiana.org in 2018.  Seizing a moment of opportunity in a rapidly shifting digital research landscape, the two organizations “spun in” to each other in order to leverage their complementary mandates and overlapping memberships.  The new merged organization is now better positioned to meet the challenges of collaborative work in research and Canadian heritage content acquisition and access.

Mapping Exercise

The Canadian Research Knowledge Network (CRKN) is a consortia of Canadian university libraries dedicated to expanding digital content for the academic research enterprise in Canada. Two themes in the CRKN strategic plan are to 1) collaborate to advance scholarship, and 2) engage members and stakeholders. The Integrated Digital Scholarship Ecosystem (IDSE) project addresses these themes by mapping activities in the Canadian digital scholarship landscape, with a view to understanding the complexity of the landscape, and identifying opportunities to align key stakeholders and providers around a series of shared objectives. This article describes the IDSE project, and how the mapping exercise will provide a lens through which to identify opportunities for stakeholders to coordinate efforts and collaborate on tools, services, programs, and projects.

This paper presents the results of an analysis of scholarly journal usage in 22 Canadian universities, sponsored by the Canadian Research Knowledge Network (CRKN). Usage is assessed using citation data, usage data (downloads), as well as survey data. The results show a high concentration of journal usage in Canadian universities and a moderate correlation between the indicators used. We also find a significant overlap between the overall and “core” journal collections of universities.Cet article présente les résultats d'une analyse de l'utilisation des revues savantes dans 22 universités canadiennes, soutenue par le Réseau canadien de documentation pour la recherche (RCDR). L'utilisation est évaluée en utilisant des données de citation, des données d'utilisation (téléchargements), ainsi que des données d'enquête. Les résultats montrent une forte concentration de l'utilisation des revues dans les universités canadiennes et une corrélation modérée entre les indicateurs utilisés. Nous constatons également un chevauchement important entre les collections de revues globales et «de base» entre les universités.

Historically, researchers have relied on libraries solely for access to research literature. But in the digital age, libraries are taking on new roles within the academic environment. This article discusses the shifting relationship between academic libraries and scholarly communication as seen through the lens of the Canadian Research Knowledge Network (CRKN); from the traditional role of the academic library as a source of funding and access for scholarly communication to the emerging role of the academic library as an active participant in the content creation process, and even as the foundation for the construction of a new digital content infrastructure.

Response Choices

50 Ss at Utah State University were given the Structured-Objective Rorschach test. An inquiry phase followed each of the responses given by S. Results seem to indicate that: (1) location scores are valid less than 50% of the time, (2) there is an increase in rejection of answers and lessened validity of location scores for the last five blots when compared with the first five, and (3) it is assumed that Ss are making response-choices on bases other than the assigned blot characteristics.
