JISC have put some extra funding in to continue work on Open Bibliography; hooray!
We are continuing along the open biblio collections theme from last year, but will now be focussing on ensuring individuals and small groups can do something useful with the records in all these collections. With any luck, we are over the obstacle of lack of data – now we need to solve the problem of making that data relevant in context.
From the software perspective, we are building tools to enable people to quickly and easily share a collection of records that are particularly relevant to them – perhaps a list of relevant reading for a course, or a list of publications of the members of a department, or a list of research articles relevant to research into a specific disease.
Further information about the project, and links to other resources, are available on the JISC Open Bibliography 2 project page
