SIPB report (March 11 meeting)
ACCU meeting June 9, 2010

SIPB report 1ACCU 09.06.10
New printing procedures for Yellow ReportsSergio Ruiz Perez
Printing strategy today: – 200 copies of each YR for the library (100 key libraries) + copies requested by Report editors – Remainder kept as stock PROBLEMS (stock “untouched” or out of best sellers’ copies)
Main distribution way is electronic All YR, from 1955 , are available
Alternative model: YR Print on Demand (PoD) – Stock and shipping management are saved: No out of stock.– Offer a fast service for high quality printing on the users' side ‐– Continuous service for CERN: high-quality copies at reduced CERN costs
• Different providers analyzed (LightningSource.com - UK: ~19 CHF+ shipping):– Same quality as present local providers: DIGITAL PRINTING– No profit to CERN from operation: USERS WILL PAY THE COST – CERN WILL SAVE THE QUALITY PDF OF ALL THE PRINTED YR– No exclusive distribution: all stays in CDS/SPIRES/INSPIRE/...
• PROPOSE: COPIES FOR EDITORS + 111 LIBRARIES + 5 COPIES FOR CERNIf users do not want to order from provider, they can order via the CERN Library

Scientific Information Service – ReportJens Vigen
• Material budget 2010-2015 secured thanks to GS management:– Recurrent expenses (YR, DB, books, journals, archive, Open Access):
1.3MCHF– Projects (Digitising Legacy, e-book, nonHEP DB, Inspire, SCOAP3): 400kCHF– FP7 (Preservation, OA, eInfrastructures): 400 kCHF
• …but still missing staff! Request (matching the old manpower plan):– 1 junior librarian, 1 senior librarian and 1 system librarian– 1 vacancy for scientific information officer: 120 applicants!– Salvatore Mele named new Deputy Group Leader– Inspire services: Dr. students, fellows and technical students– Bookshop: Run with help from half-time ISS staff

Do library services appeal to the Google generation?Analysis of current loans March 2010: 2600 loans to 700 different users Age: 57% less than 35 years old Gender: 17% women (idem to HR staff stats) Repartition by department:
PH: 63%, BE: 14%, TE: 8%, EN: 8%, others: 7% Proxy server to facilitate
access:https://webservices.web.cern.ch/webservices/Tools/LibraryProxy/Default.aspx
SIPB report 4ACCU 09.06.10
•IP address must be recognized to access electronic library•Library proxy service has been setup by IT to be tried from home
Digital Libraries: trend is centralizing physical presence • IT merged with the Central Library ~10 years ago, PS ~5 years ago
Time to merge the LHC Library with the Central Library
CERN Archive = Memory of CERN:To select and obtain records of long-term historical interest and to keep them safeTo make the records available for research
Digitisation of Council documents (SI-AR 2009): All Council documents available electronically from the new Council web pages Digitisation with OCR (so full-texts are searchable)
ongoing work in 2010 ~7,000 documents completed in 2009 Scanning of c. 12,000 FC documents should be finished in April 2010Next: 2,500 SPC documents
SIPB report 5ACCU 09.06.10
Publishing in the LHC era started• First two articles published (EPJC, JHEP)
– Open Access POLICY at CERN, supported by DG– Copyright CERN for the benefit of the collaboration
• JINST books printed (20 CHF/set @bookshop)
• Try to standardize
Creative commons HELPS IN DEALING WITH LICENCES
ALSO ELSEVIER ACCEPTED TO PUBLISH IN OPEN ACCESS (PHYS. LETT B )ANY PAPER GOING TO PRL SHOULD REQUIRE TO BE PUBLISHED OPEN

Intense conversations with Brazil, Russia, China, India and
Japan !SCOAP3 in the US (3M$, 95% full!)
OUTLOOK1. Reach critical mass: completing U.S. and EU pledges + Asia and South America2. Convene international Governing Board3. Engage publishers in a call for tender4. Go/No-Go decision, contracts and MoU’s
Persue the excellent interim agreements for LHC papers meanwhile.
69%of the budget envelope pledged

Data preservation
SIPB report 7ACCU 09.06.10
New initiative: ORCID.org HEP AUTHOR IDENTIFICATION
• publishers, academia and database producers working together • CERN involved through INSPIRE, a founding member. S. Mele is in the working groups• INSPIRE is in the technical groups making sure HEP author lists are properly treated.

Bringing Library services to usersAnne Gentil-Beccot
SIPB report 10ACCU 09.06.10
Objectives: Promote services Widen the communication channel with all users Better understand users information practices at CERN and identify unmet needs
Methodology: Tailor-made presentations by Department with room for interaction/feedback Regular short articles in the Bulletin Focused presentation/training sessions to be organized
We may ask for a presentation at the next ACCU meeting

inspiration from the most recent LEP preprint
Preparing a LHC physics paper: proposal for improvements Roberto Tenchini •In CDS: CMS papers
•Archive arXiv helps submitting paper and then CERN-EP-PH•CERN preprint … not obvious at all no standard CERN format for preprint
Discussion on various items:• Authorization issued by CERN?
– Procedure unclear: a preprint must be submitted
• Every publication should be an EP report• LHC will produce several papers/week:
– no manpower to referee for large experiments Referee only for small experiment
• Procedure with CDS equal for all experiments, using a template – Questionnaire for CDS submission (collaboration review? Any people refused to sign?)
– If for large collaboration there is a special critical paper PH must be informed– open access and copyrights (reuse the material)
• CERN is the owner: “for the benefit of the collaboration” more open than “on behalf”
