RESEARCH DATA. ARE WE READY?
Research librarires are willing to contribute, but:
1. Re-skilling needed (IT, discipline knowledge)
2. Funding needed

RESEARCH DATA. WHERE DOES THE COMMISSION SEES LIBRARIES?
CONTENTS
Text and data mining (TDM) is the process of deriving information from machine-read material. It works by copying large quantities of material, extracting the data, and recombining it to identify patterns
TEXT AND DATA MINING IN A NUTSHELL
No human being can read and exploit all the relevant literature of his research field. Text and Data Mining can help and even enhance human reading and processing of information
For libraries: researchers will realise the full value of our collections (link to factsheet)
TDM can revolutionate science in the coming years… if we eliminate some OBSTACLES
TEXT AND DATA MINING IN A NUTSHELL
Who else has realized of this
potential?
PUBLISHERS… ready to relicence content for TDM activities
LIBER’S POSITION ON TDM:
• The right to read is the right to mine (NO to double licening)
• TDM requires a COPYRIGHT EXCEPTION
NOT ALL CONTENT CAN BE LICENCED (THE WEB!)
LIBRARIES ALREADY SPENT MONEY ON LICENCING (RIGHT TO READ, RIGHT TO MINE)
NEGOTIATION OF LICENCES: TIME CONSUMING, NOT SUSTAINABLE
DAMAGES EUROPE COMPETITIVENESS
IT GOES AGAINS OPEN SCIENCE EUROPE AGENDA
WHY LICENCING FOR TDM DOES NOT WORK
TEXT AND DATA MINING. What LIBER is doing
LIBER participating in a working group to develop solutions to estimulate TDM in Europe (LICENCES FOR EUROPE)
LIBER unhappy with the scope of the working group: narrow and pro “re-licencing”
LIBER leading a request for exceptions and limitations to copyright in TDM
More than 60 research institutions and prominent researchers adhering to our request!
Articles in Nature and national press
Meetings with the European Commission to explain our position
