Books & Bytes New Years Double Issue
Volume 1 Issue 3, December/January 2013
(Sign up for monthly delivery)
Happy New Year, and welcome to a special double issue of Books & Bytes. We've included a retrospective on the changes and progress TWL has seen over the last year, the results of the survey TWL participants completed in December, some of our plans for the future, a second interview with a Wiki Love Libraries coordinator, and more. Here's to 2014 being a year of expansion and innovation for TWL!
The Misplaced Pages Library completed the first 6 months of its Individual Engagement grant last week. Here's where we are and what we've done:
- Increased access to sources: 1500 editors signed up for 3700 free accounts, individually worth over $500,000, with usage increases of 400-600%
- Deep networking: Built relationships with Credo, HighBeam, Questia, JSTOR, Cochrane, LexisNexis, EBSCO, New York Times, and OCLC
- New pilot projects: Started the Misplaced Pages Visiting Scholar project to empower university-affiliated Misplaced Pages researchers
- Developed community: Created portal connecting 250 newsletter recipients, 30 library members, 3 volunteer coordinators, and 2 part-time contractors
- Tech scoped: Spec'd out a reference tool for linking to full-text sources and established a basis for OAuth integration
- Broad outreach: Wrote a feature article for Library Journal's The Digital Shift; presenting at the American Library Association annual meeting
SPI
Thanks for putting the latest SPI together Roland. It was fairly obvious to a few editors that the new account wasn't that of a new editor. I looked at the edit histories of a few articles on the account's contribution list, but couldn't see any recently blocked editors listed, so, was stumped as to the identity of the socketeer myself. ← ZScarpia 23:06, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
Perhaps paranoia has set in, but there's something about this account which doesn't look quite right to me. ← ZScarpia 20:02, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
- Unlike the other accounts, this is certainly not an SPA. The user has been editing since May, and although this may be a POV editor, they do not appear to be edit-warring. I don't think this is another sock. RolandR (talk) 21:58, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks. As you say, the account's not an SPA. ← ZScarpia 22:11, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
