- 11. Outreach and Technology Researcher Networking
- 12. Researcher NetworkingWhat is it?Ideal role for libraries
Information organization, instruction, usability, subject
expertise, ontologies and controlled vocabularies Have a tradition
of service and support Strive to serve all missions of the
institution Have close, trusted relationships with our clients
Understand user needs Understand the importance of collaboration
and know how to bring people together Have knowledge of
institution, research, education, technology, and clinical
landscapes RN Adoption and Outreach, VIVO SF wiki
- 13. Researcher Networking and theSemantic Web Increasing
recognition of the value of semantic web standards Increasing
momentum in support of semantic web technologies to facilitate
research discovery Recommendations for researcher networking
recently endorsed by the CTSA Consortium Steering Committee
represent a new standard in researcher networking. Read more at
http://vivoweb.org/blog Examples of applications that consume these
rich data include: visualizations, enhanced multi-site search, and
VIVO Searchlight. Other utilities are in development across a wide
range of topic areas.
- 14. VIVO Enables collaboration anddiscovery across an
institution and among institutionsAn open-source semantic web
applicationthat enables the discovery of research andscholarship
across disciplines in aninstitution. VIVO harvests data from
verified sources & offers detailed profiles of faculty and
researchers; displaying items such as publications, teaching,
service, and professional affiliations.A powerful search
functionality forlocating people and information within oracross
institutions. Public, structured linked data about investigators
interests, activities and accomplishments, and tools to use that
data to advance science
- 15. Collaboration & Discovery Across institutions, VIVO
provides a uniform semantic structure to enable a new class of
tools using the data to advance science.
- 16. Community-Wide Semantic Search

- 18. Not just for individual scientists! Libraries, departments
Ontology, extensions Impact Centers of excellence Memberships
Beyond ICTS IRCs Bedside Core Research Facilities Funding agencies
Bench Administrators Community Partners WU-ICTS community partners
Highlight efforts
- 19. The library is a conduit to information, collaboration, and
discoveryand tools like VIVO can help make this work easier for
everyone.(so we can all spend our time on more interesting
endeavors!)
