Welcome All!
Round Robin of leadership. Welcome!
- Transferring VIVO Copyright (Terrie, 5 mins)
Draft copy of transfer has been sent to Lyrasis from comment from Cornel. First round of Lawyers are reviewing. Terry will be sharing once the initial review.
Want to ensure the values of VIVO is also conveyed. OpenSource, etc.
- Travel funding request for Bruce to attend EuroCRIS or other meeting(s) (Bruce, 5 min)
Motion was brought forward to fund Bruce traveling since he no longer has access to his travel funds due to his recent change in status. In this instance it would be Bruce representing VIVO as the chair of the Leadership group.
Bruce is asking for $2,500.
Terry motion to approve
Seconded by Rob
Motion passed.
- Strategic Priorities Discussion (Bruce, 35 min)
Briefly, here is where I think VIVO stands in the RIM/CRIS Marketplace. There are increasing number of commercial competitors (Elsevier, Digital Science, Ex Libris). Yet VIVO, as a competitor, has several advantages: open source, open data, customizable. We have been making progress in the development of VIVO as well as building partnerships that support our community (EuroCRIS, Latin America, other Lyrasis community programs). Our challenge remains that we are a small community and it is possible to overwhelm community members, especially ourselves.
One strategy is to prioritize our work. Some possibilities off the top of my head:
- VIVO-in-a-box(VIAB)/technical debt => proposal, hosting through Lyrasis
- Ingest process
- VIVO as Semantic technology that supports the transition to open science
- Building/engaging community
Process
- Small teams through existing working groups? New groups?
- White paper?
