SPARC webinar

00:40:38 Michelle Reed (she/her): Question for Liz: whether you’ve seen any use of Protocols.io as a pedagogical tool in classrooms?
00:42:49 Ellen Ramsey: Liz, without naming names, can you talk about how you have handled it when a vendor doesn’t adhere to values expressed during (or before) a contract?
00:46:00 Robin Sinn: How do we frame the job of the library as supporting local/campus needs (protocols.io) and supporting open infrastructure that isn't so obviously related to campus research/teaching (think of IOI, DOAJ).
00:47:15 Moriana Garcia (she/her): Membership?
00:47:35 Robin Champieux: Yes, I’d love to dive into that too Robin. We are navigating that question in my own library especially as it relates to successfully funding these resources.
00:56:26 Robin Champieux: haha
01:07:38 Robin Champieux: It’s only in the last year or so that values-based decision and policy making have become a topic of discussion and area of action at my university. I’m optimistic that the library can build upon that growing familiarity.
01:09:27 Kathleen DeLaurenti: This is such an important point that Lenny made and such a change from tech partnerships that I was involved with 15 years ago. That kind of transparency and partnership in development can really benefit the community overall.
01:09:56 Lenny Teytelman: BTW - about values/mission - you can ask the vendors if they have a public document around that.
01:10:08 Robin Champieux: Good point Lenny.
01:10:24 Lenny Teytelman: We created one at protocols.io internally in 2019 and then made it public in 2020. But you can push us towards being better.
01:10:36 Robin Champieux: Thank you! This was great.
01:10:47 Lenny Teytelman: (Many startups might not have thought about creating a mission/values document.)
