OER Computational Publishing Packages for Teaching Open GLAM || TIB-Blog

An experimental computational publishing teaching unit used with students of the Open Knowledge class at the Hannover University of Applied Sciences and Arts in partnership with the Open Science Lab, TIB. During the summer semester, the students of the Data Science major in the Information Management study programme at Hannover University of Applied Sciences and Arts were to deal with topics within Open Knowledge in a practical way. Thanks to the newly established Joint Lab between TIB and HsH, projects at TIB (here in the Open Science Lab within the project NFDI4Culture, Task Area 4: Data publication and data availability) can be integrated into teaching even more easily than before and students can thus be taught very application-oriented knowledge. Eleven students completed the class unit which was carried out over March to April 2023. An open access OER guide to running the class, a template publication for use in the class are online on GitHub and designed for OER reuse. Full class information and resources are on Wikiversity – ‘Modul “BIM-224, SoSe 2023, Blümel” im Kompetenzfeld Data Science des Studiengangs Informationsmanagement an der Hochschule Hannover’. The prototype publication exercise uses the ‘ADA Semantic Publishing Pipeline’ and involves creating a fictional ‘exhibition catalogue’ drawing on a Wikidata based cataloguing of seventeenth century paintings deposited by the Bavarian State Painting Collections.  The software used is a publishing pipeline that authors can script and utilises Jupyter Notebooks to retrieve content from linked open data sources – Wikidata and Wikibase, and more – to

Semantic Publishing: The Future Open Textbook – a Contribution to NFDI4Culture || TIB-Blog

Semantic Publishing is a new open-source software research project contributing to the techstack for the creation of multi-format textbooks. A new generation of textbooks that includes modern Open Science digital objects, has semantic layers for structure and meaning, and packaging for interoperability. We are focusing on a specific book type ‘the textbook’ as an integrated part of MOOCs. The project is based at the Open Science Lab – TIB and contributes to the German consortium of the National Research Infrastructure for Culture (NFDI4Culture).

The Future Open Book || TIB-Blog

Rapid publishing for public health books against COVID-19 The article covers a case study of the barriers to be overcome to fully automate the production workflow for Open Access multi-format books, to produce and distribute the following – ebook, print-on-demand, screen PDF, webbook, website, and an interoperable source. This blogpost was written to accompany the presentation at the Japanese ‘Vivliostyle User/Dev Meeting 2020 Autumn’ 24 October 2020 13:00 JST (04:00 UTC) – 17:10 JST (08:10 UTC).  The case study The case study involves producing eight book sprints for training manuals, some with MOOC modules, for the Academy of Public Health in Dusseldorf (Germany) which was run as a research cooperation with the Open Science Lab, TIB – German National Library of Science and Technology.  Motivation We are using the book as a technology and social practice within healthcare knowledge management. For example the ‘book sprint’ method of bringing together health
