OpenDOAR - Home Page - Directory of Open Access Repositories
The Directory of Open Access Repositories - OpenDOAR Search for repositories | Search repository contents | List of repositories | Repository Statistics OpenDOAR is an authoritative directory of academic open access repositories. Each OpenDOAR repository has been visited by project staff to check the information that is recorded here. This in-depth approach does not rely on automated analysis and gives a quality-controlled list of repositories. OpenDOAR has also been identified as a key resource for the Open Access community (K.B.Oliver & R.Swain, 2006 - PDF) and identified as the leader in repository directories in a study by Johns Hopkins University.

Scholarly Electronic Publishing Bibliography The Scholarly Electronic Publishing Bibliography (SEPB) presents selected English-language articles, books, and other printed and electronic sources that are useful in understanding scholarly electronic publishing efforts on the Internet. The bibliography covers a wide range of topics, such as digital copyright, digital libraries, digital preservation, digital repositories, e-books, e-journals, license agreements, metadata, and open access. Most sources have been published from January 1, 1990 through October 30, 2011; however, a limited number of earlier key sources are also included. The bibliography includes links to freely available versions of included works.

Grey (or gray) Literature (GL) is, according to AFNOR (Association française de normalisation), any typed or printed document, meant to reach a limited audience, outside of the commercial publishing channels and outside of the conventional bibliographic control utilities. It is difficult to estimate how much Grey Literature is produced since legal deposit laws will apply only the volume of conventional literature published commercially. Examples of Grey Literature include: study or research reports, scientific and technical reports, government documents, theses, patent documents etc. Why is there an interest in Grey Literature?

Tarjan's strongly connected components algorithm Overview[edit] The basic idea of the algorithm is this: a depth-first search begins from an arbitrary start node (and subsequent depth-first searches are conducted on any nodes that have not yet been found). As usual with depth-first search, the search visits every node of the graph exactly once, declining to revisit any node that has already been explored. Thus, the collection of search trees is a spanning forest of the graph. The strongly connected components will be recovered as certain subtrees of this forest. List of academic databases and search engines Wikipedia list article This page contains a representative list of notable databases and search engines useful in an academic setting for finding and accessing articles in academic journals, institutional repositories, archives, or other collections of scientific and other articles. Databases and search engines differ substantially in terms of coverage and retrieval qualities.[1] Users need to account for qualities and limitations of databases and search engines, especially those searching systematically for records such as in systematic reviews or meta-analyses.[2] As the distinction between a database and a search engine is unclear for these complex document retrieval systems, see:

The Optimal Open Access Policy for Institutions The following optimal wording for an Institutional Policy on Open Access for [institution] is recommended to accommodate publisher embargoes: The [institution name] expects the authors of papers reporting publicly-funded research to maximise the accessibility, usage and applications of their findings. To this end: Search Contents of Open Access Repositories Search Repository Contents This service, based on the Google Custom Search engine, lets you search the contents of the repositories listed in OpenDOAR for freely available academic research information. This quality assured approach minimises (but does not eliminate!) spurious or junk results, and leads more directly to useful and relevant information.

Search Engines:Grey Literature From Topical Search Wiki General OpenGrey – multidisciplinary European database of grey literature. National Technical Information Service (NTIS) – search in NTIS reports. Zanran – A search engine for data and statistic documents. PDFSearchEngine.org – A Google CSE based search engine that can limit results to PDFs or other documents types as well as .edu, .org and .gov websites.

Home Now in IEEE Xplore: The latest issue of IEEE Spectrum looking at the impact of lasers on motion pictures This issue explores how lasers will trigger the next great revolution in motion pictures. More and more, people are watching movies on their laptops, tablets, and smartphones. Why librarians should be concerned with Open Access Rapid price escalations in scholarly journal subscription rates have been adversely affecting access to scholarly information. Often referred to as the 'serials pricing crisis', the costs of academic journals have been sharply climbing for over two decades now. According to the Association of Research Libraries (ARL), the average cost of a serial subscription for ARL member libraries increased by 315% from 1989 to 2003.
