Item Bringing Indiana Libraries and their Collections to Wikidata(2018-08-21) Lemus-Rojas, Mairelys; Odell, Jere D.Item Empowering communities with data: Role of data intermediaries for communities' data utilization(2018) Yoon, Ayoung; Copleand, Andrea; McNally, PaulaData have significant potential to address current societal problems not only at the federal and state levels, but also in smaller communities, in neighborhoods, and in the lives of individuals. While the proposition for this potential is that data are and will be shared with and reused by and for communities at different levels, not all data are not systematically or routinely shared for reuse with communities due to social, structural and technical infrastructure barriers. Data intermediary organizations can play a significant role in removing existing barriers while unlocking the potential of data for all, particularly for communities with limited human or financial resources, limited access to existing data infrastructures, and underserved populations. Considering the significance of the data intermediary organizations on local communities, this study aims to explore the role of intermediaries that usually facilitate community members/organizations’ data utilization. The findings of this study reveal that data intermediary organizations play four major roles that are crucial in communities’ data utilization: (1) democratizing data, (2) adding value to existing data, (3) enhancing communities’ data literacy, and (4) building communities’ data capacity. This study has several important implications to offer a solution to overcome the challenges of data reuse at the local level.Item Scholarly Profiles as Service(2021-02-09) Lemus-Rojas, MairelysItem Scholarly Profiles as Service for Fairbanks(2021-05-13) Lemus-Rojas, MairelysItem The case for open research in entomology: reducing harm, refining reproducibility and advancing insect science(Agricultural and Forest Entomology, 2024) Cuff , Jordan P.; Barrett , Meghan; Gray , Helen; Fox , Charles; Watt , Allan; Aimé , Emilie1. Open research is an increasingly developed and crucial framework for the advancement of science and has seen successful adoption across a broad range of disciplines. Entomology has, however, been slow to adopt these practices compared to many adjacent fields despite ethical and practical imperatives to do so. 2. The grand challenges facing entomology in the 21st century require the synthesis of evidence at global scales, necessitating open sharing of data and research at a pace and scale incompatible with the slow adoption of open research practices. Open science also plays a vital role in fostering trust in research and maximizing use of research outputs, which is ethically crucial for reducing harms to insects. 3. We outline these imperatives and how open research practices can enhance entomological research across a range of contexts. We also highlight the holistic nature of open science across the full research lifecycle through several specific examples of open research practices, which can be adopted easily by individual entomologists. 4. We do, however, argue that the responsibility of promoting, integrating and encouraging open research is most crucially held by publishers, including scholarly societies, which have leveraged widespread adoption in adjacent fields. Entomology must advance quickly to become a leading discipline in the open research transition.Item Wikidata Workshop Series: Citation Entities(2021-02-19) Lemus-Rojas, MairelysItem Wikidata Workshop Series: Exhibition Entities(2021-02-24) Lemus-Rojas, MairelysItem Wikidata Workshop Series: Intro to Wikidata(2021-02-15) Lemus-Rojas, Mairelys
