NISTEP Seminar , Dec 08, 2011 林　和弘, Kazuhiro Hayashi (Affiliated Fellow)

Development of scholarly E-journals

•  Digitization of information itself ↓ Tulip, •  Reviewing on the Web, Distribute through

the web ↓ Scholar One Manuscript, Science Direct

•  Link to other journals, and Bib DB ↓ CrossRef, Web of Science, PubMed

•  Link to other class of DB –  Substance DB Gene, Chemical Compound –  Researchers DB ORCID –  Mash-up through API PLoS One

Development of e-Communication

•  Before web: Letter, Phone and FAX ↓ •  After web:

E-mail (most popular), BBS ↓

Blog , P2P, skype ↓

SNS, twitter Web media except email is NOT on the main stage of

Scholarly Communications (so far).

Flood of Information and its management

Many papers to read Many papers to write Many forms to get budgets Many forms to be promoted

Management and Sharing of Scholarly Information from a researcher’s view

0.0: accumulating in a personal physical space, exchange it by post-mail

1.0: accumulating in a personal local digital space, exchange it by e-mail

2.0: uploading on a personal web space, sharing on the web, communicate by e-mail

3.0: In a cloud, a person reuses each other’s data and registers to their personal space sometimes with his evaluation, communicate on SNS

Reference Management Tools

0.0: Binder（Filing） 1.0: EndNote launched: Local , writing

support 2.0: RefWorks launched: ASP, sharing 3.0: Mendeley : Born Cloud, sharing, co-

creating, co-evaluation

•  And 3.0 Others (Read Cube, TogoDocs) •  Earlier tools are improved to 3.0 Now not just for reference managements

Today’s Goal

•  Learning the latest innovative tool for scholarly communication (not just a reference management tool)

•  Learning how it has been developed •  Hearing of a founder’s background to

learn the origin of innovation •  Prospecting the future of Scholarly

Communications using the latest tool Through
